Shampoo is a basic hair care product, so everyone uses it to cleanse the scalp.

But not every shampoo can please us with a rich composition that can have a significant positive effect.

Even expensive skin care products do not always meet a person's needs. Therefore, some "refine" the composition of the product, making it more useful and effective.

What additives are used most often?

Sea salt

It is best to use a fine or medium grind product so as not to injure the delicate scalp. This is a powerful cleanser that can prevent dandruff and regulate sebum secretion with regular use.

Sea salt is completely safe.

If you add a little of the component to your shampoo, you can significantly improve your hair's health and speed up its growth, experts believe.

Activated carbon

This product seems more unexpected, since we are not used to using it in the hair care process. However, it is worth remembering that cosmetic companies actively use charcoal in the creation of their products.

The tablets "specialize" in deep cleansing of the scalp. Charcoal can help women who have oily hair.

If you try to use charcoal on a regular basis, you will have to use shampoo less often.

What else can be added?

Many people know that a couple of drops of any essential oil will give your hair a pleasant aroma, but the product’s beneficial properties do not end there.

Essential oils can give your hair shine and a healthy look. Some of them also have an antibacterial effect.

You can also add a small amount of fatty oils, but do not overdo it. Most often, the choice falls on argan and coconut oils.
