Are You Using Sulfates?

When you have locs and your are not using the right products or too much product you will definitely see the repercussions. One mistake that I have made was using sulfate shampoos. Even though the shampoos or products overall that locked women and natural women with free flowing hair use are different sulfates are not good for anyone period! When using shampoos with sulfates in them my hair was constantly itchy and I wondered why.

After doing some research I learned that sulfates are very irritating to the scalp and cause dryness. After eliminating shampoos that contain sulfates from my hair diet I have been rewarded with an itch free scalp. Instead of using shampoo sometimes I just use an apple cider vinegar rinse. If I do choose to shampoo I like to use Castile Soap or Avalon Organics Shampoos.

Take it from me if you’re looking for a healthier scalp ditch the sulfates!
