What is non-sulfate shampoo

Recently, in the market of cosmetics has become increasingly found such a tool as a non-sulfate shampoo. What is this tool and why is it so popular?

Modern consumers began to think more and more often about the benefits of this or that hygiene remedy. Many experts argue that shampoos contain substances that do not benefit, and have significant harm not only to the hair, but also our health. These include sulfates (SLES, ALS, SLS, SDS), which are surfactants, widely used in the manufacture of hygiene products (pastes, shampoos, bubble baths, gels). Their main property is the ability to provide good foaming and effective cleansing. Sulphates accumulate in the subcutaneous tissue and interfere with the normal process of forming a natural protective skin barrier. Often they cause allergic reactions to the skin.

What attracts consumers without a shampoo? Namely, in that it lacks these most ambiguous sulfates, which all began to fear. How does it produce a non-sulfate shampoo that is able not only to clean the hair well, but also to maintain them in a normal state? As a foaming, detergent, it uses not sulphates, but their natural derivatives. These include: cocoglucidides, sodium cocoylglutamate, disodium cocoyl glutamate. The peculiarity of these hair products is that the more these components are present in their composition, the softer they become.

Bezsulfatny shampoo cleans the hair quite well, but with oily scalp it will have to be washed more often. For a complete cleansing of the scalp and hair, it is almost always necessary to re-soap, which leads to a high consumption of detergent. All these shampoos are well combined with air conditioners, any masks, balms. They are ideal for use after keratin hair straightening and lamination. Among the most popular brands of non-sulphate shampoos, domestic: Mirra-Lux, Natura Siberica and foreign Vanilla silk, Hempz Couture, Cocochoco, Logona, Alterna, Yes To, Barex Aeto ".

Very ambiguous in hair care is the use of shampoo, designed to care for the hairline of horses. Some sources indicate an excellent effect, and some on the contrary categorically forbid people to use it. Horse shampoo, reviews of which vary greatly, was developed specifically for animals, and not for humans, so the end result of its use is unknown to anyone.
