Why Hair Gets Greasy & Damaged
Ah, if only we could have waved goodbye to greasy hair as we emerged from puberty. But no – just like adult acne is most definitely a thing, the curse of greasy hair continues to haunt us. It’s not just down to our lazy (read: dry shampoo) habits, either. Exercise and where you live and work – as well as piling on too much product – can all trigger lank lifeless hair that looks like it needs a good wash.
Greasy hair is often caused by external factors which is why you could have greasy hair but not oily hair – oily hair is a natural occurrence.
His top tips? Don’t condition every time you wash; condition just at the ends; use a natural bristle brush to redistribute the oil from the roots down the hair shaft; don’t over-brush (that encourages more oil production) and keep your brush clean so that oil isn’t transferred back onto your hair.
It’s especially worth paying attention to that last point if you’re an avid exerciser who often swerves washing your hair after a gym session. All the sweat and grease your brush picks up will stay there until the next time you use it – which is pretty gross when you think about it.
Invest in a good shampoo is key, which is where Wild Naturals Shampoo comes into play. You want the ingredients to be your soldiers against greasy hair and falls into the ‘clarifying’ category: these work like magnets to attract any excess sebum sitting on the scalp. Finally, avoid heavy moisturizing ingredients and silicones. These can cause a build-up on the hair shaft and are hard to remove, which will exacerbate the problem.
Shampoos are a necessity for healthy hair. Some folks lather, rinse, and repeat several times a week, so whichever product (or products) you have sitting in your shower caddy, let them be good ones. Over the years, there’s been much chatter about sulfates in shampoos and their supposedly harsh effects. But are they really as damaging as they're made out to be? Let’s get down to the root of the speculation.
The bad rap started in the '70s, when some shampoos contained ethanolamine lauryl sulfates that released carcinogenic nitrosamines. At the time, manufacturers took corrective action, but ever since, sulfates were associated with health risks. The FDA, European Union, and Health Canada have all reached a consensus that the sulfates currently in shampoos are safe when used as intended. Clearly, that’s why there still are products on the market with these compounds.
When it comes to colored hair, one myth you’ve probably heard is that sulfate-free shampoo is better because it doesn't strip color. Water is as damaging as any cleanser. When your hair gets wet, it swells, the hair shaft opens, and some color leaches out, and sulfates can strip your hair of essential oils, which can be damaging after coloring.
Although it’s great to know that sulfates aren’t as scary as they're perceived to be for your hair, they can be pretty irritating to the skin. Sulfates can over-strip the skin of oils, which can leave it dry and prone to allergic reactions. Therefore, now comes the time to learn about why Wild Naturals Hair Care is the one for you!
