Press release:
We may not be aware that we are
unknowingly putting harmful chemicals on our hair thus resulting to general
conditions such as migraine, nausea and skin rashes. The symptoms may be
quickly attributed to stress but if you look closer to that hair product you’re
using, you’ll be surprise to find the culprit.
Popularity does not equate to safety,
some popular brands sold in the market are loaded with mildly toxic chemicals
that may be harmful in prolonged use.
Novuhair, Nature’s answer to hair loss, gives you the lowdown on these chemicals
to help you with your choices.
Myth: Shampoo must produce lots of lather in order to properly clean your
hair.
Truth: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is a compound that helps shampoo
and other cleaning product in producing foam and bubbles. Though it may
effectively remove hair build-up, it can also strip off essential oils that is
needed to keep your hair healthy.
Myth: Parabens has an anti-bacterial compound benefits that outweighs
the harm.
Truth: Parabens are basically used to prolong the shelf life of hair and
cosmetic products mostly for its antibacterial purpose. Symptoms that are
related to over exposure to parabens are Atopic Dermatitis and Rosacea. Further
studies also show that use of products with parabens accelerate skin damage and
aging related to sun exposure.
