Best Organic and Natural Hair Care Products

by Rock Marlow Writter & Seller

Fortunately, an abundance of both up-and-coming and established brands are taking responsibility into their own hands by offering safer alternatives with responsibly-sourced ingredients. Even drugstores now offer a plethora of options, while new specialty e-tailers, such as The Detox Market, Safe and Chic, and subscription box Love Goodly are helping consumers by only stocking ethical brands.

A typical Beard Kit contains all the essential beard-growing items like natural oils, conditioners, and shampoos, etc. Just like the way Natural Shampoo protects and nourishes our hair and let it grow with the best organic ingredients possible. The natural oils and organic nutrients that natural beard oil contains let your facial hair and its follicles grow well and be in healthy condition.

 

With all of these new possibilities come the daunting task of navigating haircare aisles, translating product labels and not falling for green-washing techniques. Companies can get away with using buzzy words like “natural,” “organic,” “eco-friendly,” to market their products, without an agency holding them accountable.

Natural

This is an umbrella term that describes using naturally-derived ingredients. It’s kind of like using Wikipedia for research—you might be purchasing an honest product, but everyone has the liberty to use this term so it’s hard to be sure.

Organic

When used correctly, this term refers to responsibly-harvested ingredients—crops that were grown without the use of toxic chemicals or pesticides. To be sure, look for the USDA-certified organic label, which shows that a product has met these standards.

Eco-friendly

Ideally, this refers to recyclable product packaging and/or ingredients that are not harmful to the environment after disposal.

In addition to a vocabulary lesson, we’ve done our research and rounded up the most responsible haircare products that actually work to offer you a comprehensive shopping guide.

Residue Free Shampoo? What exactly is residue?

 

A general definition of soap residue is anything that's left behind after the soap is rinsed away. We take for granted that some part of soaps and shampoos that we use remain after we rinse. We know that our hands and hair have a fragrance and we associate this with them being clean. We know logically that our clean hands to not smell like fruit, obviously we are smelling a scent and that means that something is on our hands still...even if it isn't the dirt that we intended to wash away. Some residues like scent and conditioners are added to be left behind on purpose. Others are related to how the soap works and are present even when nothing additional is added to the soap. Such is the case with traditional soaps such as castle soaps. These soaps are very poor at rinsing away. This is why they leave rings of residue behind in sinks and bath tubs when they are used. Some people are very sensitive to these residues but most have no problems with them, in fact you might choose your shampoo based on the smell it leaves behind.
