There are a thousand different shampoo’s out there! However, picking the right one for your hair is a tedious task. Many shampoos often promise luscious locs but leave us with frizzy, dry and damaged hair. Keep scrolling for a guide to choose just the right shampoo for your tresses and keep bad hair days at bay.
1. Avoid Sulphates
Afro hair has a unique and tight hair structure. Because of a fragile cuticle, hair tends to frizz out and become damaged. The biggest culprit of causing frizz is sulphates in shampoos. Most shampoos are loaded with sulphates, which cleanses your scalp but also strips you of all the natural oils. Avoid sulphates and you will avoid frizz!
2. Say No To Silicones
Natural ‘fro is easy to weigh down. All those fine coils, kinks and curls can get easily bogged down with regular use of silicones. This ingredient is often used in conditioners and styling products. However, silicones cannot be washed out of your hair and can end up causing product build up. This viscous cycle will eventually cause dryness and breakage. TCB Naturals Leave-in Treatment is an effective alternative that will fight dryness and leave your hair healthy and shiny.
3. Stay Away From The Brush
If you brush your kinks right after shampooing them, it will surely end up looking like a bunch of frizzy cotton candy. If you wish to have soft, defined and healthy natural hair, stop brushing it out after shampooing. Use a wide-toothed comb instead
