We understand how organic shampoos those products oriented to the care and cleaning of the hair with ingredients of natural origin. That is to say, in their formulas we do not find chemicals such as silicones, sulfates or parabens, while the rest of the hair products do usually have them.

This is because the hair is "detoxifying" chemicals like parabens or silicones. Once the hair gets used to organic shampoos, it is normal to notice a great improvement in the quality of the hair fiber.

One of the most notable advantages of using organic shampoos is that the hair will be much shinier. We can even space out the washes to stay clean for longer.

Although the chemicals used in most hair care products are authorized and do not pose a health risk in any way, many people prefer to do without them. In these cases, organic shampoos are the best ally to carry out a hair care routine without resorting to chemicals.

How to act in case of acute hair loss

As we have previously mentioned, organic anti-hair loss shampoos contribute to the proper functioning of the scalp by reducing hair loss. However, when hair loss is acute or more intense accompanied by lack of density or areas without hair, these anti-loss products are not enough.

Bald spots? Recover hair with hair transplant

When it is an alopecia that is causing hairless areas, the only way to see ourselves with hair again is with the hair graft. The medical hair treatments they stop the fall and improve the quality of the hair that has not fallen, but once the destruction of the hair follicle occurs, it will not grow back naturally.

Hair grafting is a simple, outpatient and minimally invasive intervention through which the necessary follicles are extracted from the area that is not affected by alopecia to implant them in areas without hair. The results of this intervention are given a year after the surgery, although the first changes can be seen already at 6 months.
