We all know gray hair is beautiful.


But it's also stubborn!


If you've experienced frustrating frizz, thinning, or brassiness - you are not alone.


In this blog you'll learn how to turn frizzy gray hair into elegant shiny silvers.


Here's what you'll learn ↓

Let's start with your shampoo...


It's sad but most people don't know that shampoo is the root of their problem.

Shampoo companies want to sell you their shampoo by any means necessary.


Seriously... have a look at the ingredients in the shampoo below.


Ask yourself if this can be good for your hair?

Notice the first ingredient. 


It's water.


Water makes up over 70% of the "shampoo" in your bottle.


Corporate manufacturers are in the business of selling shampoo, not fixing your hair - otherwise they wouldn't sell a product which is 70% useless.


After the water you can see a long list of confusing chemicals. 


Let's focus on the chemicals that are absolutely destroying your hair.


The most crucial thing to avoid is SLS.

It dries, frizzes, and strips your hair of it's precious moisture

If you take anything  away  from this, my god let it be, you should avoid SLS.


Sodium laureth sulfate is extremely cheap to manufacture. So it's no wonder all of the huge corporations use it in their products.


It's a petroleum-based detergent made in the 1930s.


Fun fact it was first used as an engine degreaser in World War II because the chemical was corrosive enough to remove the toughest oils and soot.


Now imagine this going on your scalp and hair.


It's no wonder so many people have a frustrating time with their hair.


SLS is in the majority of shampoos.



Shampoo companies use tricks. They list high-quality ingredients but don't tell you that it's only 0.4% of the bottle. The rest is fillers & chemicals.

A filler is a component of a skincare or haircare formula which is used to create texture or lubrication.


These fillers come in forms like: synthetic fragrance, alcohol, and parabens.


They give zero nutrients to your hair.


But worse - they drain the moisture from your hair.


Fillers create even more damaged ends which often add a brassy hue to white hair.

Gray hair is fragile. It can't handle the same chemicals it use to.


Young hair does a great job of withstanding harsh chemicals like SLS, fillers & alcohol. 


But as we age... these chemicals have a detrimental effect on how our hair looks and feels.


Unfortunately this can affect how we feel about ourselves. 



This is what happens as we age and our hormones change:

  • Sebum oil reduces (causing frizz)
  • Growth of hair slows down (causing thinning)
  • Hair becomes more fragile (increasing chance of damage and brassy tones)


To combat these hormonal changes, we need to add nourishment to our hair in a different way.


Here are the most important vitamins for restoring your gray hair. This means you can enjoy softer, shiner and stronger hair 


To help rejuvenate your gray hair, you need to give back the natural nutrients lost through ageing.


The best way to achieve this is by using the ingredients listed below: 

First, you want moisture to reduce frizz. Vitamin-A  is a superhero in locking in your precious hydration


All cells need vitamin A for growth. This includes hair, the fastest growing tissue in the human body. Vitamin A helps skin glands make sebum. Sebum moisturizes the scalp and helps keep hair healthy. 

To keep your hair protected from brassy tones you need a strong shield. Vitamin C protects from UV rays & keeps yellow tones away 


Vitamin C is one of the most effective nutrients to help strengthen hair. “Vitamin C  builds collagen, which is important for strength. Helping protect fragile grays from UV damage, pollutants, and hard water. 

Most women over 70 experience hair loss. Vitamin B will help you prevent and repair thinning.  


B vitamins help with hair growth because they play a key role in producing red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the scalp so that hair follicles can generate new hair. There are eight B vitamin

So if 70% of shampoo contains SLS how should you clean your hair so it becomes soft and silky instead of dry and frizzy.

Now you know to avoid SLS. 


But what does SLS do in shampoo... it creates bubbles! Which is what gives shampoo the lather we've all grown to expect. 


If you've ever tried shampoo without SLS you will notice it leaves hair gluggy and sticky. 


What's the alternative. 


Sodium Coco-Sulfate or SCS 


Their names are where the similarities end. 


Remember SLS is a detergent made from petroleum.


SCS is a natural gentle cleanser made from coconuts! 


SCS provides the same lathering benefits without detrimental chemical scars.  


Below we've listed some shampoo bars which have been designed over the course of 7 years.


They're all natural with: Vit A, Vit C, Vit B and are 100% product. So you get rich concentrated nutrients.


Plus every bar & every ingredient is sourced and then handmade in the USA. You can see every ingredient in the list  below.
