Improve your hair with natural oils

NaturalNews) A walk along the health and beauty aisle of your local grocery store will showcase dozens of popular hair care products. Unfortunately, most of the ingredients in these products are actually toxic chemicals that damage hair follicles and leach into our bloodstream causing further toxicity in our bodies. Healthy hair depends on healthy circulation and nutrition. Many natural plant based oils are incredibly beneficial for a full head of healthy hair.

Some of the most toxic beauty supply ingredients include sodium lauryl sulfate, propylene and polyethylene glycol, and parabens (methylparabens). Sodium lauryl sulfate is linked to eczema, dry and irritated skin, hair loss, urinary tract infections, and cancer. Polyethylene glycol is a petroleum based product that has been linked to cancer. Parabens are known estrogen mimickers that can lead to estrogen dominance and cause many symptoms such as PMS, uterine fibroids, and breast cancer.

Many products advertise themselves to be natural or made with herbal extracts, etc. However, a closer look at the ingredient label shows the toxic trio listed above along with mineral oils, phosphates, petroleum products, ammonium salts and many other dangerous chemicals. Many of these chemicals will make your hair and skin look nicer in the short-term...however, the toxic load they lay on your body will eventually cause your organs to rot, your skin to wrinkle and your hair to fall out later in life.

It is so very important to look through every ingredient. If you cannot pronounce it or you have no idea what it is...chances are it is bad for you. Be very careful!
