A Natural Moisturizing Shampoo Is A Must!

A natural, moisturizing shampoo is an absolute must with dry scalp conditions on the rise and in today's world full of harsh and drying hair products! I will show you what ingredients to look for in your moisturizing shampoo AND just as importantly, what ingredients to stay away from.

Most of us are exposed to some type of advertising, whether in T.V. commercials, print ads or radio. They promise us beautiful hair, a healthy scalp and a bright future if we wash with "their" special shampoo.

Dry hair is brittle and hard to manage and breaks and splits at the slightest touch.

Most of the commercial products that millions of people buy everyday, have a drastically higher pH than the pH of a healthy scalp.  These harsh shampoos come in at a pH of around 8 which is devastating to your scalp and hair.  In fact, most scalp conditions such as dandruff, flaking scalp, itching scalp, scalp psoriasis and scalp eczema are caused by a fungus that grows on the scalp. Normally this fungus is kept in check as long as the proper pH of the scalp is maintained in a range of between 4.5 and 5.5.   So when your scalp's pH is disturbed or destroyed, that's when serious problems can erupt.

Another little known sneaky secret that most shampoo companies don’t want you to know is that when you wash your hair with one of their "nutrient-rich" shampoos, most of the nutrients and active ingredients in the product don’t actually end up in your hair but rather they wind up down the drain. You see, the reason for this is that the shampoo molecules they contain are too large to penetrate the cells of hair (and more importantly the tiny hair follicles where our hair actually grows). Therefore, they just sit on top of the follicle until washed away.

There is a vast range of commercial products on the market toted as "moisturizing shampoo" - but BEWARE - these can cause more harm than good! Not only do these damage your hair shafts and follicles and negatively affect your physical appearance (not to mention the emotional affect this can have) but they undermine your precious health as well. I'll begin with what shouldn't be in your moisturizing shampoo!

Stay Away From Harsh Hair Chemicals

Importance Of Moisture Shampoo Ingredients

Many people ask, "Why should these ingredients be of concern? These chemicals go only skin deep, right?" In fact, because phthalates aren't always strongly bonded to the materials to which they are added, they can be absorbed into the human body either through inhalation or through the skin.

Parabens are also extremely well absorbed via the skin and migrate via the skin into the bloodstream. Hair products likely deliver one of the most potent dosages of harmful toxins.

The main reason sodium lauryl sulfate is used is because it is an inexpensive detergent and makes mixtures foam well but it has a negative effect on your cells and may even lead to corneal(eye) damage.

Other research has indicated sodium lauryl sulfate may be damaging to the immune system, especially within the skin. Skin layers may separate and inflame due to its protein denaturing properties as well as causing damage to the hair follicle resulting in hair loss.

In fact, shampoos rank among the hair products most often reported to the Food and Drug Administration in association with dry hair and scalp, irritation and outbreaks, stinging eyes, and tangled, split, and fuzzy hair.

Natural Moisturizing Shampoo Is BEST

Long Highly Moisturized Hair

As an advocate of natural remedies, I believe in the immediate and long term benefits of using only natural, moisturizing shampoos for your hair and scalp.  (The picture to your right is me holding my new puppy during the holidays and I've been using my hair products for over 11 years and they continue to do wonders for my scalp and hair!)

Natural hair products should contain the right combination of natural herbal extracts, vitamins C and E, tea tree oil and more. You see, these are highly reparative ingredients that can be used for every type of scalp condition! And the body responds quickly to "natural" as you will see.

I believe in using only naturally made products made with herbal ingredients. I have seen time and time again that using an effective moisturizing shampoo is critically important.

Three highly effective ingredients in an herbal moisturizing shampoo should include tea tree oil, shea butter and urea . These three ingredients provide a powerful formula to relieving dry scalp symptoms.

Here's why:

Tea Tree Oil: Tea Tree Oil has been used for many, many years by people around the world for its' extraordinary medicinal qualities. It has a very helpful restorative effect on skin infections and scalp disorders of every kind.

Shea Butter: This thick, rich butter has a soothing, moisturizing and protecting effect. Shea butter also helps cell regeneration and capillary circulation.

Urea: Has been medically proven in various clinical studies to have superior anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties that helps promote fast healing of dry, cracked, split skin, eczema, psoriasis, rashes, acne as well as dry, itchy, flaky scalp as well as adding much needed moisture.

A natural moisturizing shampoo doesn't disturb the natural PH of the hair & scalp like most commercial shampoos do. It soothes and hydrates the scalp for long lasting relief and health. A great moisturizing shampoo will keep the pH of the hair at about its natural level, around 5.0 or so. When the pH of the hair gets too high, the hair becomes too alkaline, and the cuticles open, the hair becomes dry and brittle, and the shine disappears. If the pH of the hair gets too low it will become hard and rough. The aim of a proper moisturizing shampoo is to keep the hair in a balance between the cuticles opening too much, and the hair becoming too hard.

Further,iIt should be so gentle and mild that it can even be used on babies and small children and be safe for the whole family.

Remember, this is your valuable life, your wonderful body, your rightful health......choose wisely and please stay informed.
