Organic products of all varieties have seen a spike in popularity in recent years. There has been an emphasis in our society to take better care of our planet and ourselves. As a result, people are buying fewer products that use harmful chemicals and more that are made with all natural ingredients (organic). Even the beauty world has been taken by storm by the organic movement. Organic hair products are now widely available at salons, spas, and supermarkets across the country. But why go organic when you love your current products? Here are 5 benefits that will convince you buy organic on your next hair product run.

You’re Helping out the Environment

You may not realize it, but when you wash your hair you are washing chemicals down the drain! The chemicals used in your hair don’t just stay on your head; they go down the drain and into the environment. Over time, this can have a negative effect on the world around us. Since they are largely biodegradable and all natural, organic hair products are much better for the environment and won’t pollute when they are used or disposed of.

Safer to Use

Using chemicals in products is a recipe for skin irritation and other allergic reactions. With organic products, you won’t have to worry about a painful negative reaction to a product. You can rest assured knowing that the product you put in your hair uses all natural ingredients. Unlike chemically enhanced products, organic hair products can even be a healthy choice for women during pregnancy. Of course, anyone who is pregnant should consult their doctor about which products are safest for them.

Value

Yes, organic hair products tend to be more expensive than their chemically enhanced competitors, but the price gap is not very wide. Plus, wouldn’t you be willing to throw in a couple more bucks for a product that will be beneficial to your health as opposed to detrimental? You will get far more value from an organic product than you will from your traditional hair products. When taking the pros and cons of each type of product into account, organic hair products are far more valuable.

Healthier Hair

Chemically enhanced hair products may give you the look and feel that you want here and now, but they are damaging the health of your hair in the long run. Organic products are actually good for your hair. The more you use them, the healthier your hair will get! Would you rather have fabricated beautiful hair or healthy beautiful hair?

Improved Overall Health

Obviously, your overall health is much more important than the health of your hair. When you use hair products containing chemicals, you are exposing your whole body to those chemicals. You can’t rub shampoo in your hair or coat your hair with product without at least some of the product being absorbed into your skin and processed by your body. In a way, you are poisoning your body with small amounts of chemicals on a daily basis. By using organic hair products, you eliminate the unnecessary chemical intake that can be harmful to your body. These products will lead to healthier hair and a healthier body.

 

There is really no simpler way to put it; products that use chemicals are unhealthy and organic products are healthy. Why would you use a product that introduces potentially harmful chemicals to your body when you could go organic? If you want healthier hair, it is time for you to get out of your old routine and explore the world of organic hair products!
