Washing Hair

While washing our hair, most of us use shampoo and other care cosmetics. So we can’t usually imagine what it might look like when someone chooses to wash their hair without shampoo. Is there any benefit to washing your hair with only water? And is there any alternative to it?

Trends come and go. Whether it takes hold in society often depends on whether the chosen methods bring any benefit and how easy they are to understand. One hit that has almost been forgotten is the no-poo method, during which you do not use shampoo when washing your hair.

Some people take this step after they are tired of having a permanently irritated scalp. Still, others try to save on shampoo and other cosmetic products.

But does it make sense to try this practice?

Benefits of washing your hair with water only

First of all, we must mention once again that you will save significantly on the purchase of hair care products. In addition, our ancestors often washed their hair in this way, so it has been a proven procedure for centuries. On the other hand, this washing method is not suitable for everyone.

Other benefits include:

• Less chemical exposure
• Reducing the use of sulfates
• Easier distribution of sebum to the lengths

It is the last point that is very important, and it kind of indicates for whom this method of washing hair will be most suitable. It will be most suitable for women with drier and porous hair; on the contrary, it will be completely unsuitable for fine and oily hair.

Are there any disadvantages?

Sometimes it happens that a crust of used styling products forms on the hair. It can be, for example, hairspray, styling gel, hardener, and the like. In such a situation, mere water may not effectively deal with impurities.

This method of washing hair may also not be suitable for fine and easily greasy hair. Damaged hair, on the other hand, may need more hydration and nutrients, which a properly chosen shampoo can provide to the hair. Last, but not least, remember that simply washing your hair with water may not contribute to reducing hair loss and promoting hair growth.

When is it appropriate to use shampoo?

You can always use shampoo, even if you avoid excess chemicals. Currently, there are quality shampoos available on our market without silicones, sulfates, parabens, or other substances that can damage hair with long-term use.

It is certainly also advisable to use shampoo for oily hair, fine hair, very dry and damaged hair, or shampoo to promote hair growth and reduce hair loss. The secret lies above all in the right choice of care ingredients, which, when combined with the right care, can give new life to the hair.

Bet on a natural composition

If you want to be sure of choosing the right shampoo and conditioner, look for ones that have a natural composition and do not contain sulfates. A big plus is the complex of several substances of natural origin, which will add hydration and shine to the hair, improve combing, gently clean it and promote its growth.

In the shampoo, try to find, for example:

• Caffeine
• Aloe vera juice
• Mint extract
• Nettle extract
• Lavender extract
• Cannabis extract

For each hair wash to be truly effective, don’t forget to apply a conditioner that will prepare your hair for the next steps in your care routine.

On the contrary, try to find in its composition:

• Caffeine
  Panthenol
  Turmeric

When you add to that the long-term use of multi-component natural food supplements to support hair growth, you will quickly forget about washing your hair without shampoo. Trust us.
