CBD seems to be everywhere these days! What's next? CBD oil for your hair? Well, actually, yes. Hair products with CBD such as shampoo, conditioner and serums are comparable to regular hair care products, but with added CBD.
The same principles that make CBD skin care and beauty products so appealing also apply to CBD hair products. This makes them an interesting alternative to traditional beauty routines. Although little research has been done on the effects of these products, there are recent studies and anecdotal evidence supporting the suspected anti-inflammatory properties of CBD oil and showing that it can reduce irritation and inflammation.
Anyway, let's talk about how CBD-infused hair products can combat common hair problems – frizzy, dry locks? No thanks! – and why you should consider incorporating them into your daily hair care routine.
What are the benefits of CBD shampoo and other hair products?
Suffering from a dry, itchy scalp? Does it feel like it never gets better? Does your hair feel dry and straw-like? We know all about it. CBD oil could be the solution you are looking for. CBD-infused hair products can restore this by returning hydration to your hair and scalp. The moisturizing effect of CBD also fights dandruff, eczema, psoriasis and other skin conditions that affect the health of your hair.
Many CBD formulations are rich in vitamins, terpenes, flavonoids, and omega-3 fatty acids. A nourishing CBD shampoo and conditioner can make your hair feel stronger and look better. Just like the people in the hair care commercials, twirling your head of shiny locks as if you were participating in a photo shoot, while you're actually at home. Wouldn't that be great?
CBD hair products provide hair that is more shiny, less frizzy and even longer and thicker due to the added nutrients. My friend who also started washing her hair with CBD shampoo and conditioner states that her hair has never been so soft. In her blog she writes how she can easily run her fingers through her curls and how fresh her highlights look. She also noticed that without washing it in between, her hair felt and smelled fresh for several days. This makes sense because CBD has been shown to prevent the production and build-up of excess oil.
Where do I buy CBD hair products?
Where do I buy CBD hair products?When purchasing CBD hair products, note that hemp seed oil also has such benefits, but it does not have the same properties as CBD. So even if you see a cannabis plant on the label, it does not necessarily mean that it contains CBD.
What are the most commonly used ingredients?
Many CBD hair products also contain hemp seed oil for an extra boost of hydration and nutrition. In addition, they often also contain other oils such as peppermint, argan and avocado.
It also contains other typical shampoo ingredients, such as 'aqua', fragrances and proteins (such as keratin and collagen). FYI, "aqua" is the fancy way cosmetics companies describe "water".
Can I apply CBD oil directly to my head?
Yes. Do you prefer not to use infused products and prefer to apply the CBD oil directly to your scalp and massage it in for a few minutes? Don't forget that it is oil and there is a chance that it will make your hair look greasy.
Okay, I'm done. How do I use CBD hair products?
Using CBD shampoo and conditioner is no different than using other hair products. Step into the shower or bath, wet your hair, put some of the product in your hand, massage it in, rinse, and repeat with the conditioner.
Can I use CBD shampoo for my dog?
Of course! Wet the dog with water. Then apply enough CBD shampoo in different places. Then massage the coat so that the CBD shampoo foams well. Also apply the shampoo around the lips, under the tail and between the paws.
