Top 5 Most Frequently Asked Hair Questions
When I do 1:1 hair consultations, I often hear the same questions repeatedly. If you’ve been wondering about something but haven’t reached out, you’re not alone! Here’s a rundown of the top 5 questions I receive most often. You might be surprised to find that others have the same concerns as you.
1) Can I use the Vibrant + Violet every time I shampoo? You absolutely can, but healthy hair needs protein and our purple shampoo doesn't contain any. You can read more about our healthy protein options here so you can choose the best option for your hair goals. All of our shampoos are color safe, which is important when depositing pigment from purple so you don't undo what you've just added by washing with something too harsh.
2) My hair is so tangled. Which shampoo is best for me?
Tangled hair can be frustrating! Our HoneyBlossom + Marshmallow Root shampoo is designed to soothe stressed hair with hydrolyzed honey and marshmallow. For extra help, you might want to try the Protected Cleanse method to keep those tangles at bay.
3) I just switched to natural shampoos, and my hair feels heavy. Why?
Natural shampoos can sometimes leave hair feeling heavy because they often lack sodium EDTA, a chelating agent found in conventional shampoos that removes hard water minerals. This ingredient can be harsh and sensitizing, so many clean formulas avoid it. The good news? Our Shampoo Booster is here to help! It clarifies product residue and hard water minerals without drying or over-cleansing your hair.
4) I’m a natural medium to dark blonde. Will purple shampoo lighten my hair?
Nope, purple shampoo won’t lighten your hair. In fact, it might slightly darken it by adding pigment. If you’re aiming for a lighter look, try adding our Shampoo Booster to your routine. It removes product buildup and hard water minerals, which can make your hair look darker than it really is.
5) I only want to wash my hair twice a week, but I have fine hair that gets oily. What should I do?
It’s common to hear that washing less frequently is a ‘hair goal,’ but this isn’t realistic for everyone. People with coarse, curly hair can absorb oil and wash less often, but those with fine, straight, or closed-cuticle hair often need to wash more frequently. Factors like activity level and water quality also play a role. Instead of focusing on how often you should wash, aim to wash your hair when it needs it to keep it happy and healthy.
