Blame it on the Alcohol

It is amazing to me how so many products on the market claim to be the miracle wonder working hair transforming product; however, when you dissect the ingredients on the label, you will often find that they are damaging your hair. The biggest misconception is that only cheap products have these tress devastating ingredients and that is simply not true.

I have received emails from customers asking for recommendations for products or stating that they have used XYZ (higher end) product and their curls seem to be dry. When asking them about the ingredients, or when I look up the products and its ingredients...its generally the same culprit.....ALCOHOL.

Alcohol in different forms are used in a number of hair products, but in certain forms the ingredient can be extremely drying, stripping it of moisture, furthermore lessening the lifespan of your hair extensions; leaving them dull and lifeless.

To keep it simple, here are some tips on what to avoid when shopping for your curl popping products:

When shopping for mousse and gels and curl enhancing products, try to stay away from products that contain these certain types of alcohol: ethanol, SD alcohol, SD alcohol 40, Alcohol denat, Propanol, Propyl alcohol and Isopropyl alcohol. So now that you know you can no longer blame it on the alcohol.
