Yep, that’s right - they do exist! Believe it or not, the market is now chock-full of toxin-free options.  Benefits of using Natural Hairspray Hairspray gives your hair style and shape. It can make your hair look thick, shiny, or smooth. You can use it to hold curls in place all day, or to help keep straight hair from frizzing up.

It (mostly) excludes bad things like sulfates, parabens, or fake scents. This keeps your hair safe and healthy (for the most part). I want to reiterate here that not every ingredient in even the most sustainable hairsprays is natural or perfect. The key here is to have mostly natural ingredients, from a mostly sustainable brand. It’s not about perfection, but about progress. Now back to natural hairsprays… If you’re sensitive to chemicals, natural hairspray might be just what your scalp needs! Even people with colored or henna-treated hair can use it too! Natural hairspray works by holding your hairstyle in place but doesn't damage the hair with toxic or petroleum-based ingredients. Look for plant-based ingredients like organic aloe vera.

It seems as if every few months there’s a new all-star ingredient that’s labeled as the next cure-all: coconut oil, jojoba oil, hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, and a whole list of “superfoods” that will help make our skin, hair and nails beautiful. At John Masters Organics we know that the rare and exotic plants we use for our formulas are not just for the eye-catching name or media hype –– we choose our ingredients specifically for their efficacy and benefits. The neroli flower is the hero ingredient in our fan-favorite Conditioner for Normal Hair with Citrus & Neroli. But besides its sweet and citrusy scent, what else does it contribute to this hair-balancing formula?   What is neroli flower? Neroli flower oil is distilled from the precious white blossoms of the bitter orange tree native to eastern Africa and tropical Asia. Its sweet, floral-citrus note makes it extremely popular for perfumes and essential oil blends.   Benefits of neroli flower oil: Improves skin             Neroli oil increases the skin’s absorption of anti-aging vitamin C. Vitamin C helps fight off wrinkles, fine lines and lighten the appearance of dark spots. Neroli’s natural antiseptic properties can also be beneficial for acne-prone skin.   Soothes the scalp             Because of its naturally soothing and cleansing properties, neroli oil can help alleviate flakes and itchiness caused by dryness and dandruff.   Sebum balancing             Scalps that overproduce or underproduce natural oils will benefit from neroli’s natural sebum-balancing properties and lightweight conditioning.   Uplifting scent             Like a big glass of orange juice, the refreshingly citrus notes of neroli can instantly uplift moods by relaxing the mind, soothing stressors –– it can even help alleviate headaches.    

17 Best Volumizing Hair Products For Flat Hair, According To Dermatologists And Reviews Written by: Lizzy Briskin  www.womenshealthmag.com   Let's face it, we've all had a bad hair day (or several) involving sad, limp tresses that look plastered to our heads. While the slicked-back ponytail is always a solid option on those flat hair days, sometimes you don't want to resort to a pulled-back look. That's when the best hair volumizing products, including shampoos, sprays, leave-in conditioners, and mousses, can turn a limp look into bright, bouncy height. Of course, the last thing you want is a "volumizing" product that only weighs your hair down further. That's why we spoke with a hairstylist and dermatologists to find the best products to add major volume to even the finest, straightest strands. John Masters Organics Volumizing Foam with Quinoa and Acacia Gum ($29)   This mousse is made from mostly organic ingredients and comes in an eco-friendly non-aerosol can, but beyond that, it adds major volume with just a small pump of product. This foam is great for frizzy hair, in particular, because it adds structure and hold that will smooth flyaways and add hold. We love that the mousse comes in a small five ounce bottle that travels easily.   Key Ingredients: Hydrolyzed quinoa, organic acacia senegal gum, soy protein   Best For: Frizzy Hair

15+ Best Vegan Shampoos Written by: Vurjeet Madan  www.theyouthist.com   Just like the food we feed our bodies, the shampoo we feed our hair with is crucial for maintaining its healthiness. Not only is vegan shampoo an environmentally-friendly decision, it is one that your hair will also thank you for. Essentially a seal for healthy, natural ingredients in your shampoo, the term ‘vegan’ connotates a lack of the harsh chemicals that are often discretely hidden in popular shampoos. Vegan-certified shampoos often contain higher amounts of organic and natural ingredients that are often more beneficial for your hair.  John Masters Organics Shampoo for Normal Hair ($29) Made with a rich blend of organic rosemary oil, lavender oil, aloe vera juice, white tea extract and jojoba seed, this natural vegan shampoo makes for a beautiful lather and heavenly natural scent. The addition of rosemary and lavender help to soothe any scalp irritation, balance oil production, and calm down the hair follicles. The “lush lather” comes from naturally derived surfactants, proving that a vegan shampoo doesn’t mean you have to skimp on the luxurious experience of the bubbly lathering that makes washing your hair all-the-more fun.  Alternatively, you may choose to go for John Masters Organics Shampoo for Fine Hair ($29) made with fine hair in mind. The formula treats fine hair by providing a gentle cleanse that won’t strip hair oils, and helps to strengthen limp or weak strands to prevent hair breakage. In addition, this formula is made with peppermint that adds an extra-soothing factor that will leave your scalp feeling clean and refreshed. As always, this John Masters’ Organics formula is made with naturally derived surfactants that lead to a beautifully lather-able shampoo.  

As more people seek healthier and environmentally conscious options, navigating the transition to natural, clean haircare has become a priority. Clean haircare isn't just a trend; it's a commitment to overall well-being. Traditional haircare products often contain a blend of harsh chemicals, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances that can strip the hair of its natural oils, leading to issues such as dryness, breakage, and scalp irritation. In this blog, we'll explore practical tips for seamlessly transitioning from conventional haircare products to natural, clean haircare. Start Gradually: Transitioning to natural, clean haircare doesn't have to be abrupt. We recommend gradually introducing cleaner products into your routine to allow your hair to adjust. Start with one core product, such as shampoo and conditioner. Clarifying Treatment: Use a clarifying treatment before making the switch to remove any product buildup. This will help your hair better absorb the benefits of clean ingredients. Try our Scalp Stimulating Shampoo. Remember Patience is Key: Transitioning to a cleaner haircare routine requires patience. Your hair may take time to adapt as it undergoes a natural detoxification process allowing your locks to gradually acclimate to the nourishing benefits of natural, clean ingredients. Stay Consistent: Every hair type is unique. Tailor your haircare routine based on your hair needs, whether it's adding more moisture, addressing scalp concerns, or enhancing natural curls. Once you find a product that works for your hair, stick with it and maintain a consistent routine for the best results. By understanding the importance of natural, clean ingredients and implementing practical tips for a seamless transition, you can promote healthier hair and a healthier you while contributing to a cleaner and greener planet.

As the leaves change and the weather cools, it's the perfect opportunity to elevate your hairstyle game. Whether you're looking for a sleek and polished look or something more relaxed and textured, our creator community has you covered. In this step-by-step guide, we'll show you how to create beautiful and versatile hairstyles using four best sellers: Hair Milk, Volumizing Foam, Hair Spray, and Nourishing Defrizzer.    Voluminous Half-Up Curled Pony Tail   Achieve a voluminous half-up ponytail using our non-aerosol Volumizing Foam. Here's a step-by-step guide:   Step 1: Start with Dry Hair Start with clean, dry hair. If your hair isn't freshly washed, you can use a dry shampoo to refresh it and remove any excess oils. This will help the Volumizing Foam work more effectively.   Step 2: Apply Volumizing Foam Shake the volumizing foam well to activate it. Dispense a small amount (a golf ball-sized amount for most hair types) onto your palm. Rub your palms together to evenly distribute the foam. Apply the foam from the roots to the mid-lengths of your hair, focusing on the crown area.   Step 3: Curl Your Hair Use a curling iron to create loose curls. You can choose the barrel size based on the type of curls you desire. Start curling your hair section by section, holding the iron vertically for a half-up ponytail. Curl away from your face for a more natural look. Leave the ends out for a relaxed appearance. Continue curling until all the desired sections are curled.   Step 4: Tease for Volume Gently tease the crown area (where you applied the Volumizing Foam) to add more volume. Use a fine-tooth comb and backcomb the hair at the roots. Smooth the top layer of hair to conceal the teasing and create a polished look.   Step 5: Create the Half-Up Ponytail Gather the top half of your hair, including the teased section, and secure it with a hair tie. You can leave some loose strands around your face for a soft touch.   Link to Volumizing Foam Smooth & Sleek Your curls   Attain silky and polished curls using our popular Hydrate & Protect Hair Milk infused with Rose & Apricot. Here's a step-by-step guide:   Step 1: Prepare Your Hair Start with clean, dry hair. If your hair isn't freshly washed, you can use a dry shampoo to refresh it and remove excess oils. Make sure your hair is completely dry, as using a curling iron on damp hair can cause damage.   Step 2: Work the Hair Milk Through Your Hair Run your fingers through your hair from root to tip, ensuring the Hair Milk is applied evenly. The Hair Milk helps protect your hair from heat damage while keeping it smooth.   Step 3: Blow Dry Blow dry by section with a round brush.   Step 4: Curl Your Hair Take a small section of hair and clamp with a ¼ inch curling iron. Begin at the root and curl away from your face for a more natural look. Leave the ends of your hair out of the curling iron for a relaxed appearance.   Step 5: Final Touch Apply a small amount of hair milk to the ends of your curls for added smoothness and shine. Gently run your fingers or a wide-tooth comb through your curls to separate them slightly and create a sleek, defined look.   Link To Hair Milk   Get Frizz-Controlled Curls   Attain a natural frizz-free look with our Nourishing Defrizzer, crafted from a blend of 12 organic essential oils. Follow this step-by-step guide:   Step 1: Start with Clean, Damp Hair Begin with freshly washed hair. Gently towel-dry your hair to remove excess moisture, leaving it damp but not soaking wet.   Step 2: Air Dry or Use a Diffuser Let your hair air dry or use a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer to dry your curls. Use a low heat setting to minimize heat damage.   Step 7: Final Touch Once your hair is dry, you can apply a small amount of the Nourishing Defrizzer to the ends of your curls for added smoothness and shine.   Link To Nourishing Defrizzer    Achieve A Polished Bob Create a refined, smooth hairstyle with the help of our USDA-Certified Organic, non-aerosol Hair Spray Here's a step-by-step guide:   Step 1: Start with Clean, Dry Hair Begin with clean, dry hair. You can wash and condition your hair if it's not already clean, but make sure it's completely dry before using hair spray.   Step 2: Apply the Hair Spray Lightly mist your hair with the hair spray, starting at the roots and working your way down. This helps to prevent your hair from being weighed down at the roots while still providing a sleek appearance.   Step 5: Comb or Brush Your Hair After applying the hair spray, use a fine-toothed comb or a brush to smooth and style your hair. For a sleek look, comb or brush your hair away from your face and toward the back of your head.   Step 6: Flat Iron If you have any waves or curls that you want to straighten, you can use a flat iron to achieve a sleeker appearance. Make sure to apply a heat protectant spray before using the flat iron to prevent heat damage.   Step 7: Set the Style with More Hair Spray Once your hair is styled to your liking, use the hair spray again to set the style. Hold the bottle about 12 inches from your head focusing on the areas that need extra hold. *Salon Secret: Sometimes a non-aerosal hair spray can be a little wet. If you prefer a dryer feel, you can spray the hair spray onto a round brush and then proceed to brush through areas that need extra volume or smoothing.* Link To Hair Spray   Get ready to embrace the autumn season with a fresh hairstyle and a revitalized sense of self-confidence, all while keeping the health and radiance of your hair a top priority. With our expertly formulated products, you can explore endless possibilities for elevating your autumn style. So go ahead, indulge in some happy styling, and enjoy the season to the fullest!
