Overcoming Hair Hypocrisy!

[brownsugarflyygirl]

I have a confession to make...I am a HYPOCRITE!!

Ladies who use natural/organic/paraben & cone free products please help!! Please tell me your success stories about reaching your hair goals with natural/organic products.....or how you made the switch...and do you have any "exception" products?

Here's my deal:
About a month and a half ago, I completely changed my diet to take a way all of the bad stuff : the hydrogenated oils, the highfructose corn syrup, the refined sugars, and the list goes on and on. I have become a certified Whole Foods junkie and Im lovin' it BUT

When it comes to HAIR products its a different STORY...I said I will wait until I achieve my length goals before I start my natural/organic hair products....I guess im afraid natural products may be inferior I know its bad but I gotta be real to overcome this...PLEASE HELP!

I am still finding my regimen and I want to start using the healthier (for my hair and body) products...I just need encouragement...I feel like such a hypocrite

Girl, don't feel like a hypocrite... It's not that serious... Don't stress over not using natural hair products.

Anyway, this one girl gave me a bottle of Jason Naturals Biotin shampoo and conditioner and my hair liked these products. I still prefer Creme of Nature Shampoo though. HTH!

I hope your transitioning journey is going good...can't wait to see you completely natural.

Happy Hair Growing!

LOL, gurl u are not a hypocrite. I mean, you won't know how good natural prods are until you try them. I, too and trying to make a huge lifestyle change, and over time that will include all hair care products as well!

Try out a few and see how you like them.
I have some Aubrey's Organics and Qhemet Biologics on order now! If I love them i will definitely PM you and recommend!

I still use giovanni's magnetic line but right now Aloe 80 organics aloe, lemon & rosemary daily shampoo is my fav shampoo:

I got it at gnc, with 20% off the 8.49 price because of my discount there. I picked it up on a whim, so I am going to try to find a lower price locally. I also want to try the conditioner.

It smells like rosemary, which I dont really care for, but my hair comes out soft and it lathers well.

I havent tried the AO swimmers shampoo, but I didnt care for the other AO shampoos I've tried, they made my hair hard. I love their conditioners tho. Jason's shaman line has a shampoo I like, and most of the giovanni shampoos are ok too.
