Hair loss is a common concern affecting both men and women, and in many cases, the choice of shampoo can play a very important role in the health of our hair. But why does hair fall out? Why are natural and organic shampoos a good option?
Main causes of hair loss
First of all, it is necessary to understand the possible causes that can lead to hair loss. Stress, hormonal imbalances (such as postpartum), poor nutrition, or the toxic products used in traditional shampoos, conditioners, or masks are some of them.
That's why, before making any changes, you should be aware of your lifestyle and make changes from there to find an effective solution.
Undoubtedly, hair loss is a topic that worries us a lot, however, it is important to know that it is a natural process. Now, when should we start to worry? On average, as we explain in this video, it is normal to lose about 100 hairs. If you notice excessive shedding or changes in texture, it is important to seek professional help and change certain habits in your hair care routine.
Natural and Organic Shampoos: an alternative to traditional shampoos
Just as you take care of your diet to maintain good general health, you should also take care of what you apply to your body, as the skin can absorb everything, good and bad.
That's why one of the first changes you should make in your hair care routine to prevent hair loss is to opt for natural and organic shampoos that do not contain parabens, silicones, or sulfates.
Why avoid parabens, silicones, and sulfates?
Now you're probably wondering why you should avoid using shampoos with these ingredients and if they are so bad, why they haven't been banned yet.
The truth is that the use of these toxic substances affects our health. They alter hormonal balance and their long-term consumption can lead to allergic reactions, itching, dryness, or dermatitis.
Sulfates and parabens can give a false feeling of cleanliness due to the foam they produce and the false feeling of softness, but beware! That feeling is completely false. For example, sulfates are widely used by people with oily hair because they are powerful grease removers, however, you should keep in mind that they also remove the natural lipids that our skin generates.
And if they are so dangerous, why are they used? The main reason why they have not yet been banned is purely monetary. Preservatives like parabens are very cheap and help large industries to store a lot of stock and carry out many productions at low cost. If you are a consumer of natural cosmetics or want to be, you should know that natural and organic shampoos have an expiration date of around one year, something that prevents us from making very large productions to then store them for years.
