Sulfate-free hair products are making head lines for all the right reasons. (Instagram @hairfood)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Let’s face it, hair care ingredients labels are complicated and product formulas are complex. Sometimes it’s easier to shop for your everyday staples when you know what ingredients you want to avoid. There is a growing consumer demand for sulfate-free hair products<\/a>…and for good reason. Sulfates are known agressors and can be potentially harmful to your health.<\/p>\n

The two most common sulfates used in shampoos are sodium laureth sulfate and sodium lauryl sulfate. These deeply cleansing chemicals have a lathering effect when they come in contact with water. Shampoos tend to include sulfates in their formulas because they are great at removing buildup, dead skin cells, oil and other impurities from hair. According to healthline.com, sulfates should be avoided for anyone with rosacea, eczema, and sensitive skin as they can be irritating and exacerbate exisiting skin conditions.<\/p>\n

Sulfates can also wreak havoc on the health of your hair. Our luscious locks<\/a> already have to contend with the middle eastern<\/a> sun, desert air, and unforgiving humidity. For some, sulfates in shampoo can push our strands over the edge. Since sulfates are great at cleansing, they can take it too far and strip the hair of it’s natural oil and moisture. You’re left with hair that is dry, brittle, and dull. They can also make the scalp flaky, itchy, and irritated. If you find yourself out of brunch and scratching your head like crazy, sulfates just might be to blame.<\/p>\n

Luckily hair care brands have jumped on the sulfate-free bandwagon and debuted products without these ingredients. Here are a few that we think are pretty amazing:<\/p>\n
