A lot of personal care products contain the list of ingredients that you can barely pronounce or read and most of them are made of harmful chemicals and toxic materials.
Some of you may use silicon to create the illusion of healthy, smooth hair but remained clueless about the fact that silicone typically coats the hair shaft, clog follicles and seals out moisture. With regular use, silicone can stop producing hair natural emollients due to its synthetic coating.
But having a beautiful, lustrous hair doesn’t come easy. Between our diet, environmental elements and the use of too many heat tools, our hair suffers and becomes dull or dry.
So what can we do to avoid these potentially dangerous substances to achieve long, healthy hair? Make our DIY hair products. In my own experience, I noticed that making your own hair treatment is more effective than those commercially bought products. It’s the best way to cut down our exposure to toxins.
