Why Sulphate Is Bad For Your Hair Extensions

Why Sulphate Is Bad For Your Hair Extensions

• Sulfates are what is called surfactants Their
  job is to reduce the level of surface tension
  between your shampoo and your skin, allowing the
  active ingredients in the shampoo to do a more
  effective job of cleaning dirt, oil and dead skin
  from your scalp and hair. Though sulfates have
  been considered safe in low quantities by the
  FDA, research done by the American College of
  Toxicology discovered that concentrations over
  one percent can prompt cellular damage. Most
  shampoos available today have a concentration of
  fifteen percent or more.

How does this affect you?

• If you have sensitive skin, you will want to
  use Paraben and Sulfate Free Shampoo to better
  nourish and condition your hair. If you have skin
  issues like eczema or psoriasis, sulfates may
  cause a flare-up. People who have dry hair,
  should avoid shampoos with sulfate as it will
  cause your hair to become drier as sulfates
  prevent your hair from receiving natural oils. If
  you want to experiment with color, a paraben and
  sulphate free shampoo can help sustain your color
  and prevent it from discolouring.

Why is sulphate based shampoo not recommended for
hair extensions?

• Using a sulfate based shampoo on hair extensions
  is even worse than using it on real hair.
  Sulfates are damaging to your hair extensions and
  unlike your natural hair the extensions arent
  affixed to your scalp, so they do not receive
  natural oils needed to restore moisture and keep
  them healthy.

Tips to wash your hair extensions

• Prior to immersing your extensions into the
  water, properly detangle your hair from tips to
  roots with the help of a wide-tooth comb. Always
  use lukewarm water when cleaning your extensions
  because it opens the cuticles without encouraging
  tangles. Once your hair is properly soaked in
  water, wring most of the water out. Then apply a
  palm-size amount of your favourite paraben and
  sulphate free shampoo to get rid of any oil, and
  dirt build up. It is recommended to lather and
  rinse two times  to make sure you get rid of all
  dirt and oil.
