Dandruff / DryHair / Hair fall / Thinning / Oily scalp is a problem that is affecting many people. Some of the reasons include poor diet , Hormonal changes , Stress , Hard water , Excess fungus called Pityrosporum ovale in the scalp.
The MAJOR MISTAKE people make is that they use SHAMPOOS , Hair Creams.STOP using shampoos, Hair creams, soap on your head at once. All shampoos and soaps contain SLS Sodium Laureth Sulfate. This is a poison. It irritates the scalp and worsens its condition.SLS is used in car wash solutions, Dish wash soaps, hand wash etc. How can you use something that is used to clean car grease on your head ?? SLS strips the scalp of its natural oils causing dry scalp, flaking like dandruff.The excessive drying makes the scalp produce more oil later leading to oily scalp.
SLS is also absorbed into the body from skin application.SLS compounds are used as detergents and surfactants. They are used widely in hair conditioners and in approximately 90 percent of all shampoos and products that foam. It is possibly the most dangerous of all ingredients in personal care products. According to the American College of Toxicology SLS causes eye malformation in children.It causes skin layers to separate and inflame due to its protein denaturing properties. Hair is made of protein and is affected by SLS leading to poor quality hair, corroded hair follicles and inhibited hair growth, contributing to hair loss. SLS can cause cataracts through skin absorption, even without direct contact with the eyes.
SLS absorbs through skin into blood and then concentrates in organs such as the heart, liver or brain. This is potentially dangerous since SLS is a mutagen, capable of changing the information in the genetic material of your cell and organs.
SLS causes PMS and drops male fertility.
Most Shampoos also contain " Propylene Glycol ". It is a cosmetic form of mineral oil found in automatic brake and hydraulic fluid and industrial antifreeze. The Material Safety Data Sheet warns users to avoid skin contact with propylene glycol as this strong skin irritant can cause liver abnormalities and kidney damage.In industry, propylene glycol is used to break down protein and cellular structure (this is also what skin is).It is a synthetic petrochemical used as a emulsifying base in creams, shampoos and hair conditioners. On skin, it makes the skin look smoother, but ultimately ages the skin faster
Go to a supermarket and check the ingredients of shampoos , soaps , detergents yourself. You will find Sodium Laureth Sulfate , Ammonium Laureth sulfate , Propylene Glycol in it. For more info google " SLS "
I suffered frm dandruff and severe hairfall for 4 years. I tried all the anti dandruff shampoos in the market. The dandruff cleared for a couple of days after the wash , but it reappeared within 2-3 days again. So I had to shampoo again and again.My scalp's condition worsened with every shampoo wash and my hair was falling at an abnormal rate.I nearly went bald !~
Finally, i found the solution. Mix 1 teaspoon of Bicarbonate of Soda in about half a glass of warm/normal water. Dissolve it well and use this solution to massage & clean your scalp/hair for about 1 min.Then, Wash off.Do NOT use HOT water. Next , dissolve 2 table spoons of any vinegar ( Preferably Apple Cider Vinegar ) in a big cup of water and use this as the final rinse and massage on scalp. Pat dry hair.You can perform this wash method every 2-3 days until your scalp improves and then do it every week.Dont wash hair everyday
Massage coconut / olive /almond oil on the scalp for about 10 mins every week. This increases blood circulation to the scalp and gives the hair strength and shine.If you really feel like shampooing.. I recommend " Aubrey's SLS free Organic Shampoos "
