Natural Hair Products for Healthier Hair
Just like scalp care, haircare really *is* a form of self-care. And as we try to make our impact on the planet more positive, the spotlight is officially on natural hair products. Promising healthier, happier hair from powerhouse blends of natural ingredients - like pure Amla Oil or pure Argan Oil - our silkiest strands don’t need to cost us the earth. New to natural haircare? You might take a few weeks to see the difference. But, once you make the switch, we can assure you that every day from now will be your best ever hair day.
What is the difference between natural and organic hair products?
While they’re both hair heroes, the difference between natural and organic hair products isn’t always clear-cut. With the two words being interchangeable, what’s the *real* difference? Here to decode it for you, we can say that a naturally fuelled shampoo doesn’t contain any chemicals or synthetic ingredients - like Sulphates or Silicones.
When it comes to organic hair products, these might use natural ingredients alongside tried and tested chemicals that avoid harsh or damaging ingredients. They also *must* be certified organic in order to be marketed that way, like with a Leaping Bunny Certification - whereas natural hair products don’t. It might sound confusing, but one thing is for sure: most natural and organic brands usually lean towards being cruelty-free and vegan, which is perfect for those of us wanting to make even more positive changes to our beauty routines.
