Nettle & Seaweed Shampoo Bar - Pack of 10

Description

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, normalizing 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 fibers, promoting healthier, shinier, fuller hair. It is also used to treat dandruff. We have used our own nettle and peppermint infusion grown in my vegetable garden in Cumbria. HOW TO USE OUR SHAMPOO BARS. 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. WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN? There are three reasons this happens: You may live in a hard water area. 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. BEFORE USING YOUR SHAMPOO BAR Try using a baking soda rinse once before you start using your shampoo bar and especially if you live in a hard water area. 1 tablespoon of baking soda (bicarbonate of soda) 1 litre of warm water Dissolve the baking soda in the warm water and pour over wet hair. DO NOT RINSE OFF. Proceed to then use your shampoo bar.
