All About Shampoos
A shampoo should satisfy all these requirements: highest quality natural ingredients, totally organic, non-detergent and containing no artificial colors or scents. Many commercial shampoos on the market—even those claiming to be “natural”— contain artificial colors, perfumes and detergents that dry and damage hair, clogging follicle openings rather than cleansing your scalp.
Detergents and color additives leave harmful coatings on the hair. Synthetic scents dry out hair, damaging the shafts by making them overly brittle. The scalp becomes plugged up, disturbing its natural pH balance. Dandruff, itchiness, premature thinning and significant, eventual hair loss are the undesirable results.
In addition to harsh chemicals, shampoos containing such ingredients as berries, tomatoes, guava, etc. are wisely avoided. You need an effective natural shampoo for your hair, not a fruit salad! However enticingly “organic” they may sound, these not-so-naturally derived fruit and vegetable ingredients tend to plug up pores, dry out hair and disturb pH balance, which damages the natural texture of your hair.
Contrary to ‘conventional wisdom,’ it is not necessary to purchase special formulas for dry, normal or oily hair; or short or long hairstyles. In fact, these supposedly special-purpose shampoos contain even more harmful, toxic ingredients.
When selecting a shampoo, trust your nose! If the shampoo has no synthetic scent and smells wholesome and appealing instead, it is very likely a good, healthy shampoo for you. The ‘smell test’ is highly reliable and individualized. Each of us has a different chemical balance that changes with circumstance and age. There is no single shampoo that can be recommended indefinitely for everyone.
When to Shampoo
Numerous conflicting views on the subject of shampooing have many people thoroughly confused. While some theories advise shampooing every day, others insist that cleansing daily dries and damages the hair. Fortunately it is not as complicated as it may seem. A simple, common sense rule to follow is: Observe your hair and decide for yourself how often you need to shampoo. For many people, shampooing every other day maintains a healthy balance of scalp and hair.
On the other hand, people whose brushing ritual is correct and consistent have often found they can easily extend shampooing to every three or four days. Any of these regimens can be effective for you. As long as your new growth of hair is maintaining its luster, health and vitality, the cleansing schedule you are following is right for you.
How to Shampoo
At first glance, recommendations that we always lather up twice sound like a gimmick to sell more shampoo. But there is actual value in this advice. Healthy shampooing has two parts: The first is loosening up debris to free the hair and scalp of dirt and dead cells. Since you might massage these unwanted microbes back into follicle openings if you shampooed only once, you are well advised to do a second shampoo. This ensures that no contaminants will retard new hair growth, damage oil glands or upset the natural fall-out and reproductive cycles of your hair. Instead, the bad stuff all goes down the drain!
The second shampooing (with massage of your clean head) also stimulates blood flow to the scalp and opens follicles, allowing nourishment for each root, bulb and hair shaft. When every follicle is adequately nourished and each sebaceous oil gland is properly activated, your own natural oils are distributed to lubricate the entire scalp and all hair shafts. A natural coating of oil is vital to the healthy maintenance of scalp and hair. It keeps the outer layer of hair moisturized and prevents drying.
Step One: Wet your hair and apply shampoo to your scalp. Massage lightly into hair and scalp, and then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Step Two: After rinsing, take a bit more shampoo and massage it gently into clean hair and scalp. Rinse out carefully until no shampoo remains and finish with cool water. Towel dry. Now you are ready to brush and style.
Your shampooing regimen should ideally contain three or more organic shampoos that are rotated regularly. Over a period of time, scalp and hair can become resistant/ immune to a single shampoo, upsetting alkaline pH balance. Regularly alternating shampoos helps your hair and scalp stay properly receptive to thorough cleansing and nourishing every time.

I totally agree with your comments and think we have been taken down the garden path to all these wonderful and weird lotions and potions that perform miracles. We are lead to believe what we see on adverts is true. We need more people to realise that to using chemicals on your hair can actually have the opposite effects. I have started to use natural cosmetics after looking into the facts about high st products.
Hi Gavin! Thank you for your fabulous comment. It’s an honor to have you visit the blog. I absolutely love what you have to say and am in total agreement! Warmest wishes! Jill
Hi,
I’ve just started using Morrocco Method. I had changed all of my cosmetics several years ago to products that don’t contain chemicals, and I’ve really liked everything but my shampoo. I used Aubrey, California Baby, Terressential, etc. With the exception of Terressential, I couldn’t be 100% positive that the shampoos I was using were chemical free. I didn’t like the Terressentials. I’m on week 3 of the detox period. I used the Zen Detox twice, and that really helped with the greasiness. I still have a little bit of greasiness, but now my hair is limp, stringy and a little bit staticy. I’m going to stick to it, though. I ordered the sample shampoo set, along with the creme rinse and some more of the Zen Detox from the MM website. I’m really hoping this will work for my hair because this stuff is so natural, and I love the scent, the concept. Etc.
Really this is very useful information . We do not get this type of information often .Must follow these posts.
