Your skin and hair are not the same (nor should you treat them the same). Your skin is living (with the occasional shed of dead cells), but you hair is actually dead cells. What is good for your skin, is not always best for your hair–hence we don’t wash our faces with shampoo nor do we wash our hair with bath soap. The one thing your hair and skin both need are natural or vegan based products-since natural is always best.
Your skin is very fragile, often making is susceptible to allergies and acne. Even worse, your skin is also affected by the sun’s UVA and UVB rays which often leads to permanent damage that can lead to premature aging and even skin cancer. This is why a skin care regimen that protects, as well as moisturize and balance, your skin is crucial. Of course your skin care regimen should contain cosmetic ingredients that are vegan or natural.
Like your skin, your hair can also face damages from the sun, this is why you want to use natural hair care products with UVA/UVB protection. But you can also damage your hair with the everyday use of product buildup, coloring, and heat styling. That said, there is no need to abandon your hair’s needs. Depending on your hair’s nature (including texture, length, and color) you need to choose natural hair care products that enhance and protect, with their soothing and healthy cosmetic ingredients. Remember that taking care of your skin and hair should be important, but never be hard.
