• Haircare is a top priority for many people,
  and most only want the best for their hair.
  Today, the best in haircare is safe, natural
  products. People are especially interested in
  natural shampoos and conditioners. In fact,
  shampoo is one of the most popular natural
  haircare products on the market. This popularity
  can be attributed to the benefits it offers its
  users. Below are a few of these benefits and why
  you should switch to healthy, natural, safe
  shampoo.

It Doesnt Contain Harmful Ingredients

• This is perhaps the greatest benefit of
  natural shampoo and the greatest reason you
  should switch to it. Non-natural shampoos contain
  toxic, synthetic chemicals. These chemicals are
  absorbed through the skin of the scalp and can
  remain in the body for several years. This can
  cause damage to the hair and body. The risks
  posed to the hair include drying out the scalp,
  reducing the size of hair follicles, leading to
  hair loss and disrupting oil glands.

• In the body, these chemicals cancause
  hormonal imbalance, damage the endocrine system,
  possiblylead to certain cancers and other
  diseases and so much more. Most natural shampoos
  dont contain these harmful ingredients, but
  always check the labelto be sure. Common toxic
  ingredients to watch out for are
• Fragrance
• Parabens (e.g. Methylparaben, Propylparaben
  andButylparaben)
• Sulfates (e.g. Sodium Lauryl Sulfates, Mureth
  Sulfate and Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate)

Contains Fewer, Healthier Ingredients

• The healthiest natural shampoos contain fewer
  than ten ingredients. Generally, less ingredients
  means less chance of harmfulchemicals. Natural
  shampoos also contain natural, healthy products.
  Some of the healthiest products found in these
  shampoos include Beta glucan, coconut oil, shea
  butter, aloe vera and tea tree.

• Beta glucan can help boost the immune system
  and treat irritated skin cells on the scalp.
  Coconut oil moisturizes the scalp, thus
  stimulating strong, rapid hair growth. Shea
  butter (organic) improves hair colour and helps
  it become and remain shiny. Aloe vera, like
  coconut oil, moisturizes the scalp and stimulates
  hair growth. Tea tree oil (organic) has
  antiseptic properties that prevent scalp
  irritation.

Contains Herb and Plant Extractsthat Benefit the
Hair

• Not only do the ingredientsin natural
  shampoos help maintain healthy hair, they also
  offer benefits to the body and the environment.
  In fact, herb and plant extracts found in natural
  shampoos are beneficial in several ways. For
  instance, they infuse minerals and oils into hair
  folliclesto moisturize and improve the health of
  the hair. They also stimulate hair follicles,
  which promotes new hair growth.

• Moreover, natural shampoos also contain
  biodegradable ingredients that are eco-friendlier
  than the harsh ones found in other shampoos.
  Finally, theyre non-allergenic and safe for all
  skin and hair types, even sensitive skin and dry
  hair thats prone to breakage. For natural
