Seaweed Powder is a rich source of vitamins including vitamins B12 (not found in land plants), vitamin E, amino acids, minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients. It makes for an effective cleansing and exfoliating agent.

Peppermint acts as an astringent, normalising both dry and oily hair. When applied to oily skin or scalp it helps reduce any excess oil. An oily scalp can lead to greasy hair, and the peppermint helps to regulate your scalp’s oil production and eliminate the grease. Peppermint oil can soothe skin irritations and relieve pain and itching. This makes it ideal for those who have dry or irritated scalps, as it can help fight dandruff and eliminate the itching associated with this condition.

Nettle increases blood flow to your scalp. It also oxygenates your hair follicles and strengthens hair fibres, promoting healthier, shinier, fuller hair. It is also used to treat dandruff.

Packaging

Make sure your hair is wet, use your hands to lather up the shampoo and work really well into your hair using your hands. I find it is best to use the lather from your hands and not run the bar directly onto your hair.

Make sure you really spread it about, remember it isn’t really about using a large amount of shampoo, it is about really working it in.

Finish by rinsing thoroughly.

Unlike shampoos with synthetic chemicals in them you can use natural shampoo everyday as it doesn’t dry out your hair or coat it in a residue.

Please note when you first start using natural shampoos there is an adjustment period where you hair need to rid itself of all the chemical residues left from traditional shampoos.

TRANSITION PHASE

When you first switch to our natural shampoo bars, you may go through what is called a “transition phase”. During this time your hair may feel oily, and feel it has a waxy residue on it.

Conventional shampoos and conditioners contain silicone to make your hair feel soft and look shiny. These products leave residues that natural products find hard to remove.

Conventional shampoos tend to remove your natural oils causing your scalp to react and over-produce oils to compensate. So because natural shampoo bare are more gentle it may take time for your scalp to adjust to a new washing method.
