Think back to the last week. How many times did you wash your hair? If you answered at least once a day, you may be overdoing it. Overstyle which minimizes chemical exposure while still getting your hair clean.
Is No Poo Right For You?
Before switching to No Poo, you should take a moment to consider your hair concerns.
* Oily Hair: If you have oily hair, you may be overstimulating your sebum glands with frequent washings. No Poo cleansers can help correct this.
* Dry Scalp: Dry scalps can be managed with a No Poo cleanser too. They won't strip away the natural oils that make hair shiny and soft.
* Dry Hair: Dry hair can benefit from No Poo's lack of sodium lauryl sulfate, which dries hair out.
* Dyed Hair: Dyed hair also benefits from a lack of sulfates, as these can also strip color.
Using No Poo can also be good for the environment and reduce chemicals in our water. If you absolutely must use shampoo, but still want to be econatural shampoo that you can use once a week.
Homemade Shampoo Alternatives
Besides reducing chemical exposure, another reason to get on the No Poo bandwagon is expense. Regular shampoos can be very expensive, and even a little of DevaCare's Nocider vinegar rinse. If you find your hair is too sensitive for even these methods, simple water can be used to clean hair, with careful scalp massage to remove grime and encourage hair growth.
