Is Your Shampoo Ruining Your Hair? Here’s What You Need to Know
If your hair has been feeling dry, frizzy, or just not at its best, your shampoo could be the problem. Many shampoos contain harsh ingredients that strip away moisture, irritate the scalp, and leave your hair looking dull. But don’t worry—we’re here to help you spot the bad and upgrade to something way better.
🚫 Ingredients to Avoid in Shampoo
❌ Sulphates (SLS & SLES) – These harsh detergents create that foamy lather but can strip your hair’s natural oils, leading to dryness and irritation.
❌ Parabens – Used as preservatives, parabens have been linked to potential scalp sensitivities and long-term health concerns.
❌ Silicones – While they give hair a temporary silky feel, silicones can cause buildup, weighing your hair down and making it look lifeless over time.
❌ Alcohols – Some alcohols (like isopropyl alcohol) can dry out your strands, leading to brittleness and breakage.
Now that you know what to avoid, let’s talk about the shampoos that actually care for your hair.
