There are many reasons why it is good to detox your hair. Here we explain why and when it is time for a cleansing treatment!
Before you start using natural hair care products:
A detox helps to clear away any residue from previous hair care products, especially if they contain substances that are not water soluble. By detoxing your hair, you get a clean start and can feel the effects of your new, natural hair care products faster. Our Raw clay is perfect for this, as it effectively draws out unwanted substances.
When you want to freshen up your hair:
Does your hair feel heavy or lifeless? Then it may be a sign that it's time for a detox! Hair can accumulate residues from products and the environment, especially during seasonal changes or stressful periods. A detox with Raw clay helps you "reset" your hair so you can start over with a fresh hair routine.
After a vacation:
A detox is especially important after a vacation in the sun, swimming in chlorine pools, or staying in areas with hard water. These factors can leave unwanted substances in the hair that can affect the quality of the hair in the long term. A treatment with Raw clay helps to remove chlorine, minerals and other substances that have accumulated in the hair during the vacation.
Here's how to do a hair detox with Raw clay:
-
Prepare the clay: Take 2 tablespoons of Raw clay for shoulder-length hair and place in a bowl. Pour water to just cover the clay and let sit for 3-5 minutes. Stir until you have a soft, smooth paste.
-
Apply to dry hair: Massage the clay into dry hair, from the scalp to the lengths. Make sure to distribute the clay evenly.
-
Leave on: Leave the clay on for 5–15 minutes depending on your hair type (5 minutes for dry hair and up to 15 minutes for oily hair).
-
Rinse and wash: Rinse out the clay thoroughly and then wash your hair as usual or start your new hair care routine.
For those who want to experience the natural form of their hair without additives, Raw clay is perfect. Wash with the clay alone and let your hair dry naturally – then you will get a feel for your hair quality in its purest form.
With a regular detox, you can keep your hair fresh, shiny and vibrant – and give your scalp and hair the best possible conditions to grow strong and healthy!
