Ok can I throw this in as a consumer? I opted to use Osmo SULPHATE FREE colour mission shampoo, conditioner and intensive masque on my dry, coloured hair but even after 4 weeks of using (wash my hair twice a week) it made not one single bit of difference to my dry hair. I then started using L'oreal Elvive full restore shampoo, conditioner and deep masque bought from boots and the results have been amazing - I actually have shiny hair for the first time in my life! So why would the sulphate containing one outperform the sulphate free one if sulphates are so bad?
Just genuinely confused by this???
Heya Hun, the one from boots will most likely have a lot of silicone in that is where your shine is coming from, but the full restore would be more suited im sure their colour protect one wouldnt have done much the same.
I personally don't believe sulphate free to be massively better than salon pro sulphate containing ones, however they are 100% better than none salon pro ones. Sulphate is damaging to the hair shaft itself as its an abrasive chemical (im lead to believe), i personally don't rate osmo (never used enough of them to comment) however colour mission would not have been the best for your dry hair, the intensive masque should have been though unless it was an intensive masque for coloured hair not dry hair.
I'd personally advise you to try joico kpak range. Amazing, and then when your hair is back to healthy condition swap to colour endure. Your hair sounds like it needs a lot of tlc and the proteins and amino acids replacing, you will not get that from boots, but a product that appears too by putting a coating on your hair, however the dry damaged hair is still there underneath
Other ranges i have used in the past and rate well for dry hair are matrix hydrating or ultra hydrating depending on your hair texture and thickness too, wella enrich shampoo, cond, and treatments. I used to use these on my extensions (as that's over processed hair) and theyre lovely, my own hair is normal thickness and condition though so they are too heavy for my own hair, joico I find suits both as it only replaces amino acids where they are lost (the extensions or ends of my hair) so win win.
Can anyone recommend a good sulphate free shampoo and conditioner to stop colour fading? ie redken, tigi or any others you can think of??
Yes they are, I never said they weren't. They're also in food! What I said was they have a history of over 90 years being used safely in consumption and cosmetics.
Where as the sneaky replacement synthetics they put in 'SLS FREE' and 'Paraben free' products do not have a history if safe use, and no long term effects are know about them! If you remove a vital ingredient from a formulation, it'll need to be replaced with something else!
It's all marketing, marketing, marketing.
Honestly, read the ingredient list of a 'SLS free' shampoo, I guarantee you'll still see the sulphites on the list, just renamed.
Aveda is 100% paraben free right across their hair makeup and skin ranges. They use a foaming agent derived from the Babasu but found in Brazil and some use meadow foam. Both natural foaming agents. They were launched in 1978 and have always been paraben and sls free.
