One customer question came last night that I thought would be nice to share with you all here.  The customer & her son both have dry scalp problem and was wondering how we can help her.

First of all, dry scalp can be cause by varies reasons.  Can we related to your weather condition, your tap water conditions, how much chemically hair treatment you have and even your health.  It maybe hard for me to tell you specifics because I don’t know where you are located and how your other conditions are.

The most important thing I would suggest is to cut down on products if you haven’t yet, especially on products that contains chemicals & other non-natural fillers.  My believe is always to go for the most natural alternative with the less ingredients or use less product if you can.  Most of the mass products that you can get out there who claims that they have fabulous & instant results are mostly likely just adding more stuffs to your hair/scalp to cosmetically improve the conditional.  In the long run, they will actually harm you more and makes you want to buy more of other stuffs, maybe another new product that the brand introduce to. 

Besides, cutting down on products/treaments and go with natural products, you can also try with shampooing less often.  And/Or trying the no-poo method.  If your hair/scalp is not too dirty/oily (and not had a lot of product on it), normally with water and just a bit of conditioner will do a good cleaning for you.  Also, massaging your scalp for a few mins a day can definitely simulates growth for healthy scalp.

Our shampoo-mi bar and everyday conditioner + the daily massage would be my best natural alternative suggestions for you & your son. 

My suggestion was mainly targeting her dry scalp conditions.  Of course we have more fabu-licious natural hair products. ^_^  I hope you found the info helpful and feel free to send me your questions anytime.

also, as we tested on a new mold for the shampoo-mi bars, we ended up with a bunch of smaller odd size cut, each approx 1oz.  They are now listed at the shop and they are just as good to sample or to travel with.

There was a nice recent article on the green guide about the myth of shampoos, like how many of them promised “clarifying,” “hydrating” or “de-frizzing”…  but really, is that what they can do? 

Really!! Anything with chemicals in the mix is going to take away the benefits/nutrients from being truly naturally treating your hair.  If you read on the article, it’ll explain.  That’s why I’m so glad and proud to offer only shampoo bars at mi.  Yes, they may lather less than what you were used to, but it is really THE best for hair & body.

Shampoo Bars is the best for you – because of the things that is NOT in it.
