What is a “hair detox”?
A hair detox is a process that aims to cleanse and revitalize the hair, removing accumulated residue from conventional hair products (sulfates, silicones etc) and promoting the overall health of the scalp.
Here are some tips for carrying out an effective hair detox and not giving up on the trial:
- Avoid harsh hair products: for example, products containing sulfates, parabens and other ingredients that can irritate the scalp.
- Make an apple cider vinegar rinse: Dilute one to two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in water and use this mixture as a final rinse after shampooing. Apple cider vinegar helps remove hair product residue and balances the pH of your scalp.
- Use a clarifying shampoo: Use a clarifying shampoo once a week to remove buildup of hair products, pollution and other impurities from the hair and scalp.
- Make nourishing hair masks: Use natural hair masks made with nourishing ingredients that contain plant oils to add softness and condition your hair.
- Limit the use of heated tools: Reduce the use of flat irons, curling irons and heated hair dryers, as excessive heat can damage hair.
- Eat a balanced diet: And yes, from a holistic perspective a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants can promote healthy hair.
- Drink plenty of water: Good hydration is essential for healthy hair and scalp.
- And finally, avoid stress: yes, stress can have a negative impact on our general health and therefore also on the health of our hair. Practice stress management techniques such as meditation, yoga or deep breathing.
