Now that Autumn is here, and our hair can take a break from regular swims, sweat and the summer sun, finding a nourishing treatment for dry hair should be high on beauty agendas everywhere. Luckily, switching out our shampoo and conditioner for a set that adds serious moisture is easy with OC Naturals’ Coco Repair range.

How to fix damaged hair with natural ingredients?

Repairing dry and damaged hair can be difficult, but using a shampoo and conditioner with natural ingredients is a great place to start. Oils are amazing moisture boosters that add shine and strength without the usual chemicals. OC Naturals knows this and the vegan Shampoo and Conditioner in their Coco Repair range is formulated with all the best oils for dry and damaged hair:

  • Coconut Oil – Full of nutrients and fatty acids, Coconut Oil smooths, strengthens and nourishes the hair from the inside. With its tiny chemical compound, Coconut Oil penetrates the hair shaft rather than coating and weighing it down, it limits protein loss and breakage, leaves hair shiny and soft, and protects against UV rays. Using Coconut Oil for dry scalp skin is also great as it locks moisture into the skin and calms dandruff.
  • KeraDyn Complex – Also rich in fatty acids, KeraDyn Complex is a powerful conditioning agent that smooths hair and reduces the friction that causes tangles, breakage and frizz.
  • Hydrogenated Olive Oil – A whipped form of olive oil that boosts nourishment without the greasy feeling liquid oils leave behind.
  • Ginseng Root ExtractA staple in traditional Chinese medicine, Ginseng Root Extract cleanses, moisturises and strengthens hair roots allowing hair to grow longer and healthier.
  • Macadamia Seed OilA frizz-busting oil that speeds up hair drying, lessens tangles, protects against UV rays and limits hair dye from fading. It adds lustre, is non-greasy and promotes scalp health by regulating sebum production.
  • Chamomile Flower Extract – A natural exfoliator that gently cleanses hair and soothes the scalp. Chamomile Flower Extract also works to prevent dryness and breakage.

A Cruelty Free Shampoo Option

In addition to caring for your hair with natural-derived ingredients, OC Naturals’ cruelty-free Shampoo and Conditioner cares for the planet. And the products are manufactured in Australia with the help of solar power! Pretty cool, right?

How to fix damaged hair

If you already recycle shampoo bottles, OC Naturals Coconut Oil Shampoo and Conditioner will fit right into your routine as every bottle is recyclable and made from 100% already recycled materials. The organic Shampoo and Conditioner are also grey water safe and accredited by Choose Cruelty Free, Australia’s leading animal welfare organisation.

If you still find yourself asking ‘why is my hair so dry?’, here are our tips:

  • When choosing a shampoo to repair hair, consider your skin and hair type – the best shampoo for dry hair might not be the best shampoo for a dry scalp. Double checking what your shampoo and conditioner target should fix any problems.
  • Try to limit unnecessary chemicals as they can strip the hair of moisture. Choosing a naturally derived, vegan shampoo and conditioner is a simple way to cut most artificial chemicals out.
  • When washing your hair, focus the shampoo on your scalp. Double wash if your hair has a lot of product build-up or sweat.
  • When conditioning your hair, avoid the scalp and focus on the mid-lengths and ends where fragile strands need moisture.
  • Try to limit brushing your hair when wet to prevent breakage.
  • Try to limit hot styling tools that will dry out hair even more.

Bad hair days can be so hard to manage, but knowing the best oils for damaged hair and how to select the best shampoo and conditioner for dry hair will definitely limit your number of them.

OC Naturals’ Coco Repair Shampoo and Conditioner are available at Coles, Woolworths, independent supermarkets and Kmart for the affordable price of $3.50 for 400ml.
