Are you looking for ‘redhead friendly’ sulfate-free shampoo? You’ve come to the right place!
Sulfates cause harm, damage, and all-around unpleasantness for red hair. We’ve heard the term “sulfate-free,” but we can’t always trust labels. Essentially, sulfates are what make a shampoo develop into a thick lather in the shower when mixed with water. The ingredient is standard in the majority of shampoos and even found in household cleaners. We want to avoid sulfates because of the damaging effects they yield to our tresses, such as frizziness and harm to color-treated hair. The damaging ingredient goes by several names, so be on the lookout for sodium laureate sulfate and ammonium lauryl sulfate.
Redheads with sensitive skin can endure harsh reactions to sulfate shampoos; allergies, eczema and irritation of the scalp are all possible adverse health reactions associated with sulfate shampoos. Looking to revamp your shampoo selection this spring? Delve into a variety of sulfate-free offerings:
