Black Hair Care

Black Hair Care Products - What works? If you want long healthy hair, you must use a system that strengthens and moisturizes your hair. Why? Black hair is prone to moisture loss due to chemical treatments and heat styling. Protein is what gives the hair its strength. Protein loss can lead to breakage and hair loss. However, protein must be balanced with moisture. If it is not balanced, this can lead to breakage and dryness as well. Effective moisturizers penetrate the hair to get inside the hair shaft and provide much needed moisture. Most black hair care products deemed as moisturizing do not actually moisturize it, but add a coating to the outside of the hair.

Hair loss is becoming more prevalent in young women, especially African American women. Why? The chemical additives in many common black hair care products create more problems than they solve. Many of these products can lead to breakage, dryness, or even permanent hair loss. Our products are made of natural and organic ingredients and are gentle and effective. Your hair will grow longer, thicker, and healthier when using these our products. This is because our hair care system is designed to moisturize and strengthen your hair.

2. Strengthening Protein Treatment - Essentious Rejuvenate

Restructures and strengthens hair by restoring protein lost during chemical treatments and heat styling.

3. Conditioning Moisture Treatment - Essentious Hydrate

4. Daily Moisturizer - Essentious Shine

Penetrates hair to provide moisture within the hair shaft. Prevents protein loss with coconut oil. Improves hair appearance.

If you are still not convinced that this system WILL help your hair grow longer, consider this:

Your hair products may be damaging your hair. For example, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate is known to cause eye irritations, skin rashes, hair loss, scalp scurf similar to dandruff, and allergic reactions. However, you will probably find it on the ingredient list of most of your shampoos. This harsh sulfate will dry out your hair and cause breakage. If your hair is chemically processed, you can count on it doing even more damage. Our all natural, sulfate free shampoo contains NO SODIUM LAURYL SULFATE.

If your hair is dry, your products are probably making the problem worse. Another common ingredient in many black hair care products is mineral oil. Mineral Oil is used in many moisturizing products because it is cheap. However, it provides no benefit to your hair and can actually increase dryness. This is due to the fact that mineral oil cannot penetrate the hair shaft. That means that it cannot get inside the hair. It can only coat the hair and give the temporary illusion of moisture. This may seem harmless, but the coating effect actually seals moisture out of your hair.The best oil to use in your hair is actully organic coconut oil. Read this study about mineral oil used on the hair. So if this is the case, why is it used so much? Well, the ugly truth is that manufacturers load their products up with cheap ingredients that are useless to your hair, then charge top dollar for the product. Overall, the reason is greed. Our hair care products are enhanced with coconut oil and do NOT contain mineral oil.

Will using products that are not natural cause health problems? You have probably heard alot about the use of parabens in many hair care and cosmetic products, and that these paraben can cause cancer. Butylparaben, Methylparaben, and Propylparaben are parabens and the most commonly used preservatives in the United States. They are considered relatively safe and non-toxic, however, methylparaben can cause allergic reactions, and propylparaben can cause contact dermatitis. Dermatitis of the scalp can cause itching, flaking, and hair loss. Our hair products do not contain any parabens.

Essentious hair products are specifically formulated for dry, chemically treated, and damaged hair. However, hair in good condition will also benefit from the gentle, moisture building, and strengthening formulas.
