VIDEO: My Sulfate Free Hair Routine & How I Style My Curly Hair

Everything you’d need to know about my hair is in these two videos.Part 1is all about sulfates and why they are harmful to your hair. I also touch on silicones, as well as the best and worst products for a sulfate free hair care system.Part 2is how I style my curly hair on a daily basis, as well as the different curly hair types and the best styling products for you. I also go into my haircut and color.

Here’s the list of ingredients to avoid in your hair products (bolded ones are most common): 

• Alkylbenzene Sulfonate

• Ammonium Laureth or Lauryl Sulfate

• Ammonium or Sodium Xylenesulfonate

• Dioctyl Sodium Sulfosuccinate

• Ethyl PEG-15 Cocamine Sulfate

• Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate

• Sodium Cocoyl Sarcosinate

• Sodium Laureth, Myreth, or Lauryl Sulfate

• Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate

• TEA-Dodecylbenzenesulfonate

List of silicones that are not water soluble (will weigh down curls and/or cause buildup):

• Cetearyl Methicone

• Cetyl Dimethicone

• Dimethicone

• Dimethiconol

• Stearyl Dimethicone

Ingredients that have the abbreviation “PEG” or “PPG” in front of it, along with Dimethicone Copolyol, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein Hydroxypropyl Polysiloxane, and Lauryl Methicone Copolyol are water-soluble and will not cause build up.
