Have your locks lost their luster? Perhaps your haircare products are to blame.
Chemicals found in many shampoos and conditioners can corrode follicles, aggravate oil glands and dry out the scalp. The result? A parched, frazzled mane that’s tough—if not downright impossible—to tame.
Instead, show your tresses a little tenderness with all-natural haircare products containing nourishing ingredients, like aloe vera and coconut oil. Here, we’ve taken the liberty of identifying five natural shampoos—and their corresponding conditioners—that are heads above the rest:
1. Shikai Natural Moisturizing Shampoo + Everyday Conditioner
The shampoo: Want to restore your tired tresses to their former glory? This extra gentle moisturizing shampoo is specially formulated to add shine, softness and manageability to dry, damaged and processed hair. It “cleans thoroughly yet doesn't strip the hair of healthy natural oils.” Plus, it smells incredible!
The conditioner: Perfect for all hair types, this organic conditioner contains naturally wild-crafted amla for a mane that’s shiny, manageable and—above all else—healthy.
2. Jason Super Shine Pure Natural Apricot Shampoo + Conditioner
The shampoo: Ready to add a little spring to your strands? This amazing apricot shampoo not only rids your hair of dirt and residue, it restores its “glow and bounce.” We’re talking moisture replenishment from root to tip for healthy, luminous hair that is sleek, shiny and super soft.
The conditioner: This clever conditioner works in tandem with the super shine shampoo to restore the aforementioned glow and bounce. “Shine enhancing apricot oil smooths hair cuticles for a perfectly reflective brilliance, while jojoba seed oil and aloe vera replenish moisture from the root to tip.” This perfect pairing will quickly become part of your haircare regimen!
