Many modern women are tired of endlessly washing their hair. I think if they were asked to choose a superpower, some would ask for the ability to always have clean hair . It seems that the more often we wash our hair, the faster it becomes oily. Some women wash their hair every morning, for example. And by the evening they already complain that their hair is dirty. There is a way out, says Briton Lucy Aitken Reed. She made washing her hair the theme of her book, in which she explained how to best care for your hair. By the way, the woman has not used shampoo for nine years . And she is quite pleased with the result.
Washing your hair: it’s all about the shampoo
Lucy Aitken Reid stopped using shampoo in 2012. Since then, she has been committed to a new method of washing her hair , which she called No Poo (no shampoo). Once upon a time, Lucy came across a study whose results stunned her. It turns out that up to 515 chemicals enter a woman’s body every day. Lucy decided at first that this was some kind of nonsense and it didn’t concern her. But then the woman looked at the composition of her shampoo, body cream and other cosmetics. The jars and tubes contained a bunch of substances unfamiliar to her. Then the idea arose that it was time to stop this whole masquerade ball of chemicals.
What did Lucy use to wash her hair?
The British woman says that at first she had to experiment a little until she found the ideal hair washing formula for herself. The main criterion for Lucy was the naturalness of the products used. For some time Lucy rinsed her hair using_baking_soda_and_vinegar. In this way, she managed to make her hair_less_oily and give it a natural_shine. Lucy also used eggs. Later she began to wash her hair with plain_water without any products. Honey, flour, and lemon_juice are also_suitable as an_alternative to shampoos.
Now the woman washes her hair with water_every_three to_four_days , and uses an egg to wash it every two weeks. And the woman’s hair cannot be called dirty. The British woman is now 100% sure that giving up shampoo had a beneficial effect on her hair. In her opinion, this is a practical solution for those who are tired of washing their hair every day.
What problems did Lucy face?
The only thing that bothered the woman for some time was the smell of her hair . He was not the same as before. Manufacturers, of course, strive to make shampoos fragrant. And we are all accustomed to perfume fragrances in products. But now Lucy, on the contrary, is glad that her hair smells natural.
Now a woman is absolutely satisfied with everything about her hair. She shares advice with others and writes a blog. And when there were too many questions about hair, Lucy Aitken Reed put them together and answered them all in a book .
Would you be able to stop using shampoos? Or do you think this is a bad idea?
