- While we know you’ll love the end results,
switching to sulfate-free and silicone-free hair care
is a process that may take a few washes for your hair and scalp to get used to.
But just remember: Your best, healthiest looking hair is worth it!
- Before we cover what to expect when you make the switch,
let’s talk about why making the switch is so important.
- Sulfates, silicones, parabens and other harmful chemicals
are commonly found in consumer personal care products.
Did you know that more than 40 nations have restricted
or completely banned over 1,400 chemicals from cosmetic
and personal care products according to the Environmental Working Group?
Exposure to several of these chemicals and contaminants
have been linked to numerous health issues.
- Now what does the switch to natural shampoo and conditioner look like?
The first thing you’ll notice is that your Sulfate-free shampoo
may not foam and lather the way you’re used to.
Many products contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate,
a surfactant that creates bubbles and foam in personal care products.
They can cause skin irritations, trigger allergies, and disrupt hormones,
and they are linked to neurotoxicity.
Since we’ve chosen to nix sulfates and other foaming agents,
this shampoo may feel a little lower on lather than you’re used to.
- Even if your shampoo doesn’t foam and lather the way you’re used to,
it doesn’t mean that you’re not getting a great, effective wash.
Thoroughly wet your hair before applying the shampoo
to make it easier to massage into your scalp and throughout your hair.
You can also double cleanse with a second wash
to ensure that your hair feels completely fresh and really clean.
- Next, it’s time to condition.
At first you may notice that your hair doesn’t have
that silky slip sensation you’re used to.
This is temporary while your hair rids itself of silicone buildup.
To help your hair feel soft and smooth during this transition,
use a little more conditioner than normal.
If you're concerned that extra conditioner will equal weighed-down strands?
Don’t worry; since they don’t contain heavy silicones,
these conditioners won’t weigh down your hair!
- Once you’ve let your hair soak up the conditioner
for about 1-3 minutes, it’s time to rinse.
It can take your hair and scalp a few washes to adjust
to your new hair care routine and balance your natural oils.
You can help hair look its best during this temporary period by rinsing well.
And any leftover residue can make your hair look and feel heavier.
We recommend rinsing with cold water to close each hair’s cuticle,
sealing in all that essential oil-infused hydration.
- Now, remember that consistency is everything!
Results with our sulfate-free and silicone-free shampoos
and conditioners get better over time, so stick with it!
After a few washes, your hair and scalp will balance,
leaving less oil at the roots and moisturized ends.
Your hair will look so healthy, soft, and shiny that you’ll never want to go back!
- And Young Living has curated a shampoo and conditioner line
that is customized for your hair needs.
Choose from three formulas, each infused with premium essential oils.
So which one is best for you?
- The Lavender Volume Shampoo and Conditioner
is made for those with fine, thin, limp hair.
This formula gently cleanses and builds volume
thanks to ingredients like yeast extract from azalea flowers
to support fuller, thicker-looking hair.
Another key ingredient is Squalene, a lightweight oil derived from olives.
This acts as a natural silicone alternative that works to soften and smooth hair.
To top it off, we’ve included the essential oil blend
that Young Living founder, D. Gary Young, personally developed
to better target the needs of those with fine, thin, or limp hair.
This blend includes oils like Lavender, Blue Cypress, Frankincense,
Cedarwood, Idaho Blue Spruce, Palmarosa, and Geranium.
- Those are some great essential oils.
Now next we have Copaiba Vanilla Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner.
It's just what those with dry or damaged hair need.
This set features ingredients like avocado and pracaxi seed oils
to replenish hydration and restore strength.
You’ll love that this formula tames flyaways
and prevents frizz and breakage—
without weighing all of your hair down, which I love.
And of course, it features the warm, woodsy aroma of Copaiba essential oil.
- Wow, I love Copaiba
Last but certainly not least, we have our
Lavender Mint Clarifying Shampoo and Conditioner.
This gentle, daily use formula is made for all hair types,
delivering a deeper clean for both hair and scalp.
Say goodbye to buildup with ingredients like Nettle Leaf extract,
which helps cleanse and comfort the scalp.
As you cleanse, Linden bud extract, Marula seed oil,
and Murumuru butter lock in moisture.
One of our favorite things about this formula
is the addition of Peppermint essential oil.
Not only does it provide an invigorating aroma,
the naturally occurring menthol creates a really cooling sensation for your scalp.
- Talk about innovative formulas that you can feel good about using on your hair!
And the best part is, each of these products is vegan
and cruelty-free and formulated without harsh sulfates,
silicones, parabens and synthetic colors or fragrances.
- We’re so excited for you to experience
soft-feeling and shiny hair, the natural way.
We want to know! Which one of these sets will you be trying?
