Pact shampoos and conditioners in Austria

Consumers are increasingly concerned about the impact their product choices are having on the environment. Everyday products we class as necessities which are available on the high street such as shampoos, conditioners, styling sprays and hair treatments often contain chemicals, additives and ingredients we are not familiar with.

Buying green and making a conscious decision to know what your haircare products are produced from means not only are you making the right choice for caring for your environment but you are also spoiling your hair with natural organic oils and vitamins leaving hair feeling and looking gorgeous. Knowing where to find green natural products is difficult; certainly the high street is severely lacking in offering green products which are kinder to the environment and good to hair. Often web searches and buying from green websites and online apothecaries are the only way to be sure what you are buying is organic, natural, green and environmentally-friendly. Over 60% of what we put onto our skin and hair is absorbed by our bodies.

It is essential to know what our bodies are absorbing. Often high street haircare options including shampoos, conditioners, styling products and hair colourants contain ingredients which are confusing and unknown to consumers. We buy based on the brand name without knowing what those ingredients are doing to our bodies.

Most shampoos contain sodium lauryl sulphate which helps penetrate the products into the scalp and is a foaming agent, though this can cause skin irritation and has been linked to health problems. Styling products often contain ingredients including Parabens and Propylene Glycol which are not good for the skin. Using organic haircare products limits the toxic chemicals your skin will absorb and green haircare works just as well if not better than mainstream brands. A main concern with consumers when buying green is that often shampoos do not tend to foam as much as mainstream brands and this leads to worries that green shampoos and organic haircare are not as effective.

Some usefull hair care facts - Austria

A more alkaline rated (meaning a high pH) shampoo is stronger and harsher to one's hair. This can mean that the hair will be left dry and brittle. shampoos containing citric, lactic or phosphoric acid are most likely balanced. Oily hair might require a more acidic pH shampoo. Anti-dandruff shampoos have been implicated in irritation of the scalp, and an increase in the production of dandruff. Anti dandruff shampoos may be available over-the-counter or on prescription, based on the strength of the medicine. Dandruff, despite common belief, is more often related to too much, or an issue somehow with, sebum production and not dry scalp skin. Not all flakes are dandruff and only a qualified physician can determine not only that one indeed does have dandruff; but also, what type of dandruff one may have. If one is experiencing redness of the scalp skin, bumps on the scalp skin, professional medical advice should be sought. Conditioner choice is greatly dependent upon hair type and hair status, such as colored, permed, dry, and the like. Commercial conditioners contain a variety of ingredients such as plant oils, provitamins, acidic compounds, plastics, stabilizers, thickeners, emulsifiers, and fragrances.

conditioners may sometimes add weight to hair, creating an adverse effect in the shampooing/conditioning process. Some conditioners, especially those containing a silicone compound, may coat the hair and lead to build up on the hair, making it dull, and lead to harsher shampoo use; in a sense, an endless cycle of shampooing and conditioning. When used correctly, however, conditioners are helpful in temporarily coating the hair to increase shine and ease tangles.

Build up is when the hair has a sticky or gummy feel, the conditioner choice seems to work less well, or the hair may be more prone to tangling. Buildup occurs when the minerals from water and/or products are not rinsed away during shampooing. A clarifying shampoo may be required to remove it. Clarifying removes all things on the surface of the hair strands, essentially leaving the hair without moisture. Failure of conditioning as part of a clarifying hair wash process may lead to excessive drying of hair. Hair which is lacking sebum may also be softened using plant oils such as olive oil and coconut oil.

Natural ways to condition the hair include rinses with lemon juice, lime juice, vinegar or for brunettes, rosemary tea. The use of acid rinses may assist those who have itchy scalps, depending on the cause for the itchiness.

With all this depressing talk help is at hand - treat yourself to luxury hair care salon products in the comfort of your own home.

Natural shampoos do not foam as much as products you would find on the high street simply because of the natural ingredients and oils used in the products. The natural foamiating does create a foam but not the mass lather we are used to.

When first buying a new shampoo, it is a psychological thing that you need to have a foaming shampoo. We are brought up on the idea that if a shampoo doesn't foam it isn't working' but that is a difference with natural shampoos though they work equally brilliantly. Buying organic offers a familiarity which immediately puts us at ease, as we can quickly and easily identify what the key ingredients are in each haircare product. Vitamins and oils such as Vitamin E, Aloe Extract, Eucalyptus, Patchouli, Chamomile, Tea Tree, Orangemint, Thyme, Peppermint and Ginseng are all natural familiar sources which will provide fantastic wholesome goodness for our hair.

Haircare tips - Austria

Just a few words about hair dryers and there place in your beauty regime. A blowdryer or hairdryer is an electromechanical device designed to blow cool or hot air over wet or damp hair, in order to accelerate the evaporation of water particles and dry the hair. Blowdryers allow to better control the shape and style of hair, by accelerating and controlling the formation of temporary hydrogen bonds inside each strand. These hydrogen bonds are very powerful (allowing for stronger hair shaping than even the sulfur bonds formed by permanent waving products), but are temporary and extremely vulnerable to humidity. They disappear with a single washing of the hair.

Hairstyles using blowdryers usually have volume and discipline, which can be further improved by the use of styling products and hairbrushes during drying to add tension, hold and lift. Always be carefull not to over use as this can cause hair to become dry and frizzy.

If this is something that affects you, you need to choose shampoos and conditioners that re-hydrate and have moisture retaining qualities, products in the the Hypact range could be just ideal.
