Some of the most common ingredients in natural hair products are those such as safflower oil, certain silk amino acids, shea butter, and specific vitamins. All have revitalizing and rejuvenating properties without the hazardous side effects of using man-made chemicals. Natural hair products typically clean just as well as their chemical counterparts and do not dry out hair, thin hair, or damage a person's scalp like their chemical counterparts.
Here are some of the ingredients a person should look for in a natural shampoo: Safflower oil helps repair and rejuvenate hair. It is very gentle, and it is a good volumizing and detangling agent. Shea butter is a great natural ingredient that helps fix dry and brittle hair. Silk amino acids are great for penetrating deep into the hair, restoring dryness and moisturizing from the inside. Vitamins A, C, and E are also great ingredients to repairing dry, damaged hair, reducing split ends, and naturally cleansing and restoring dry, damaged hair. These are just a few of the long list of ingredients that a person can look for in natural hair care products to get the clean feeling they desire.
It may take a few weeks, or even months, for the side effects from the harsh chemical shampoos and conditioners to start to reverse, but once a person gets used to a natural shampoo or conditioner, the odds are that they will never switch back. A person's hair will often start to repair itself, and once it does, split ends will usually disappear, hair will revert back to its natural amount of oil, and overall, the hair will look and feel healthier than ever before.
