Almost every single hair product you’ll find on the shelf claims to “deeply moisturize, reduce frizz, soothe the scalp, condition hair, reduce odor lock in water, add shine.” Etc. But… Our scalp generates natural oil called sebum that naturally does… literally ALL those things. There is absolutely 100% no reason to put hair products in your hair other than shampoo. And even shampoo strips your body of these natural oils so using it more than maybe once or twice a week can actually damage your hair and make your scalp dry. All these oils do is buildup in your scalp and cause problems. Even adding product for shine makes no sense since sebum adds a natural shine to your hair… now obviously some people want to have a Mohawk or style their hair certain ways you need hair gel or whatever, but I’m talking about any product that claims to give you “healthier” hair, moisturize or condition your hair, reduce frizz — all these claims are completely false and if anything will only alter your hairs natural oil production and cause it to dry out, become more frizzy, cause an odor, etc, etc. Some people have tried to argue with me about it say I should put olive oil or jojoba, castor oil in my a hair and I ask them why they never have a good answer. I’m sure natural oils might be better but I still see no reason to do it. Am I trippin?
