Which shampoo suits me?
You have probably already experienced that not every shampoo works for you. In this blog post we would like to show you what helps which hair type and which products you could use.
For quickly greasy hair
Oily hair occurs when the sebum glands on the scalp produce more oil. Basically, this "skin fat" is important because it protects and cares for our scalp. But when it's in excess, most people aren't fans of it. But how is it that the sebaceous glands suddenly work so much more than they actually need to? There can be different reasons. The trigger can be hereditary or hormonal, for example. However, greasy hair often occurs when the scalp is exposed to heat or harmful ingredients (e.g. silicones, chemical surfactants) from hair care products. This dries out the skin, which is why the sebaceous glands produce more fat to compensate for this deficit. An unhealthy diet can also be the cause of oily hair.
For greasy hair, we recommend our shampoo powder along the lines of “ Macadamia Orange ”. Instead of chemical surfactants, we use a natural surfactant made from coconut oil, which cleans your skin. Valuable oils care for the stressed scalp without leaving an oily film.
For dandruff and itchy scalp
Everyone sheds dander because the skin renews itself about every four weeks. Only when the dead skin cells are shed very quickly and clump together do dandruff become visible. Dandruff can result from either a dry or oily scalp. Above all, heat and harmful ingredients from hair care products promote dry dandruff. In the case of greasy dandruff, a yeast fungus is often also to blame. Itching usually accompanies the dandruff. If dandruff develops due to a skin disease (e.g. neurodermatitis), a doctor should definitely be consulted.
For dandruff, we recommend our “ Tea Tree Rosemary ” shampoo powder. Instead of chemical surfactants, we use a natural surfactant made from coconut oil, which cleans your skin. The contained tea tree oil has an antibacterial and fungicidal effect.
For damaged hair
Damaged hair requires a lot of care. The hair suffers from bleaching, heat, a lot of styling and harmful ingredients. Many conventional hair products only supposedly care for the hair. They often contain silicones, which form an impermeable layer on the scalp and thereby optically beautify the hair. The problem should be tackled directly at the root - literally.
For stressed hair, we recommend our shampoo powder along the lines of " Macadamia Oat Milk ". Instead of chemical surfactants, we use a natural surfactant made from coconut oil, which cleans your skin. Valuable oils care for the skin. Oat kernel oil even has an antioxidant effect. Antioxidants scavenge free radicals and promote collagen production.
For fine, lifeless hair
Fine hair is almost always genetically predisposed, but sometimes it is also hormonal or the result of deficiencies. With fine, lifeless hair, it is most important that it is not weighed down by silicones and other harmful ingredients. In addition, the right ingredients can ensure more hair growth. Antioxidants promote collagen production, which is needed for our hair to be strong and grow.
For stressed hair, we recommend our shampoo powder along the lines of " Coconut Mint ". The contained oat kernel oil has an antioxidant effect and thus strengthens the hair. Of course, none of our shampoos contain silicones. And a little tip: dry shampoo also provides volume and gives your hair more grip.
For sensitive scalp
Incompatibilities or allergies can turn the shampoo search into a real act. If you have very sensitive skin, you will probably have problems with many shampoos.
Here we recommend our "Sensitive little" shampoo . We have reduced the ingredients to the essentials. It's free of allergens and fragrances that can increase your symptoms. Here, too, we use a very mild surfactant made from coconut oil, macadamia and shea butter, which provide a lot of strength and care.
For every hair type
You don't really find yourself in any of the above hair types? Then just try our shampoo powder along the lines of “ oat milk lemon ”. Instead of chemical surfactants, we also use a natural surfactant made from coconut oil, which cleans your skin. Valuable oils care for the skin and promote collagen production.
Or something completely different?
Want to try something other than shampoo? With us you will also find hair soap . But beware: Your hair needs time to get used to the hair soap. Because this works differently than shampoo. We have already written a blog post about this, click here if you are interested. But ghassoul powder is also an interesting alternative to shampoo. The lava clay cleans skin and hair without any surfactants or other additives. The structure of the ghassoul powder is such that it simply binds dirt and fat. Maybe this is something for you, just try it out.
