LOOK OUT FOR:

• Sulphate, a detergent found in most soaps, has gotten a bad rep for stripping hair of its natural oils and leaving it feeling rough and grassy. Using a shampoo with sulphate could help with removing product build up, just remember to use an intense deep conditioning treatment afterwards.

• Parabens are a class of colourless, tasteless and odourless preservatives widely used in cosmetics. The health drawbacks from parabens have not been scientifically proven yet, but some research has claimed a link between parabens and growing cancer tissue.
