Many people are beginning to try organic hair products instead of using out dated synthetic hair products. Going green and being eco-friendly is a trendy way to participate in saving our planet for future generations.
Being ecology friendly has moved beyond just being conscious about the way valuable resources are used, into the way people maintain their health and beauty. This is evident by the consumption and popularity of organic skin and hair care products in the market today. Are organic products only about going green, or are there other benefits than just being eco friendly?
Most of the hair products you’ve grown accustomed to purchasing contain many chemicals and synthetically derived ingredients. The fragrance, preservatives, foaming agents, and many other ingredients result from chemically derived sources. Unfortunately for the organic shopper, it’s not simply a case of looking for products with the chemicals taken out. Finding a suitable organic hair product replacement can be confusing.

Organic hair products can claim that they contain organic ingredients just because they use ‘natural ingredients’. Just because a products contains natural ingredients does not mean necessarily that the product is 100% organic. There might be one natural ingredient in the product, but that’s enough for them to label their product as ‘natural’. As long as there is one natural ingredient, the FDA will approve their labeling. This is true of any organic product you buy, including consumables.
The best way to determine is the product is truly an organic hair product is to simply read the label. When the label has ‘sodium laureth/lauryl or ammonium laureth/lauryl sulfate’ on it, these are foaming agents that are synthetically derived. Ingredient you can’t pronounce are always a red flag or at least need to be considered when you buy products. Natural ingredients to look for are herbs, fruits extracts, and plant extracts.
