Hair care

[LIBRA]

Ok so I am not a girly,girl by any means. BUT I do like to take care of my hair, I have curly hair and I just recently cut it pretty short. I went from hair down the middle of my back to hair thats level with my chin!!! Anyway the point is, I now have to use some kind of product so I dont have this huge poof ball on my head. I cant seem to find any organic hair stuff that actually works.

I dont want to keep buying it and not liking it either. Does anyone here use any hair stuff thats pretty natural and works well???

Aveda makes some good styling products - I'm thinking one of their mist or soft pomade products that help separate out the curls, and provide a little weight so the curls don't go poof.

There are a few organic hair products listed in the beauty directory, (http://www.happyhippie.com/directory/beauty.htm) but mostly sprays.

I found this one, but kinda pricey:

Sorry I couldn't be more help - maybe google some of these specific products for feedback?

Just remember, hair grows ;) Have fun w/ it.

My wife sells Arbonne products (not on the site... it would cost too much to do that). All the products they have are all natural and are great! I use the shampoo & conditioner and have noticed a reduction in split ends (not total elimination mind you). If you are interested PM me and I'll send you her email addy (don't want to post it here b/c bots like to swipe and send spam).

Yeah it may seem high, but I wash my hair (and those who know me know i have a lot) everyday, and I use 2-3 pumps and the bottles last me at least 4-6 months (I also share with JuJu).

I have a friend with REALLY curly hair and she says she uses creams, like a pomade. Aveda is a good start for natural products.

Yeah, old thread resurfacing.

So, Arbonne has decided to discontinue half of the products we use, including the shampoo and conditioner. Anyone have any shampoos I should look into? I want to stick with organic (or all natural), but I don't want to continue paying $25 a bottle ($25 for shampoo and $25 for conditioner).

See if www.vitacost.com has something you like, they sell mostly organic type products and they discount everything.

[Unkle_John]

Thanks Gaston! I'm checking it out right now.

LOVE Vitacost!!! 4.99 shipping on any size purchase, and everything is so much cheaper. I buy all Kris's herbal remedies on there, the Buried treasure line of liquid vitamins is less then half the cost then in stores!

Sorry I just am a fan of Vitacost :D


I use a different shampoo everytime I run out, I get some on Etsy sometimes, some homemade stuff.

I figured I would add some advice! I've got LONG straight hair. It's down to my back side. It's the one thing I've vain about and I take extra care of it. I even go to a long hair salon in Columbus for "dusting" trims. But anyways, my husband and I have finally found a natural shampoo/conditioner we really like. It's the JASON Brand. I'll put their website at the end. We get ours at Whole Foods. We generally use the "84% Aloe Vera" shampoo and conditioner. If not then the Jojoba. We love it. It conditions my hair so well and breakage has gone down to about nothing. It's about $9.00 per bottle, but a little goes a long way. We think it's worth it! Honestly, give it a try. We've gone through so many different natural brands only to be left disappointed for one reason or another. Hope this helps!
