It’s not so easy to find the perfect African American hair care product….or is it? You’ve heard it from many stylists that specialize in black hair care – Don’t wash your hair every day or you’ll dry it out and damage it. Wash every 3-5 days to allow your natural oils to replenish the nutrients in your hair and scalp.
How do you find a shampoo that will not only clean your hair, but also keep it healthy and vibrant? Simple. Find a black hair care shampoo that has peppermint and tea tree oil. You will feel the effects as soon as you gently massage it into your hair.
That’s because peppermint has a cooling, tingling effect on your scalp. The tingling is a sign of your hair follicles being stimulated, which promotes hair growth. So not only does the peppermint shampoo feel good, it is also doing good things to your hair.
As an ingredient in your black hair care product, peppermint oil works at balancing the pH levels of your scalp. This provides an amazing benefit for any type of hair. If you have oily hair (which is really oily scalp – the oil is distributed through your hair), the peppermint oil acts as an astringent, normalizing the scalp’s oil production. So your greasy hair days are over.
If you have dry, itchy, flaky scalp, you probably have dry, brittle hair. Since the peppermint oil in your black hair care product/shampoo acts to balance the pH of your scalp, it actually ends up encouraging the production of your natural hair oils. More oil means less dry. Less dry means fewer flakes and no itchiness. Problem solved.
Now for the Tea Tree Oil. There are many different kinds of tea trees, but only one provides the countless benefits that you need in your black hair care product. Melaleuca alternifolia. This plant is native to Australia and has been used by the Aborigines for centuries.
Make sure that the African American hair care product you are using has melaleuca alternifolia listed as an ingredient. This is so potent that even if it’s diluted many times, it still retains its effectiveness. Not very many ingredients in black hair care products do that…if any at all.
Tea tree oil, like peppermint oil, also works to balance the pH levels of your scalp, so whether you have oily or dry scalp, the tea tree oil and peppermint oils in your African American hair care product will work to ensure that your scalp will be healthy, clean, excess oil and flake free.
And, if you’re ever in the position to worry about head lice, the tea tree oil in your black hair care product acts to prevent head lice infestation in your hair.
So hurry and buy your Peppermint Tea Tree Shampoo right now! You can find some available at NYRAJU for a very affordable price.
