Pre-pooing is an excellent practice, but is not essential when using Organic Hair Care Products

Organic Hair Care products are different than regular products, this due to the unique ingredients like exotic extracts, and natural alternatives.  These “clean” ingredients utilize nature to work with the natural structure of your hair.  For this reason the hair feels thicker, stronger, and is ultimately healthier.

Organic Hair Care Products are gentle.  They will not strip your strands when cleansing with shampoo.  Therefore, the pre-poo step is not an essential step to a hair care regiment when using an organic hair care system.  The art of pre-pooing began years ago, and is a consistent staple among Indian women.  Before shampooing their hair they would apply coconut oil to the strands and allow it to sit for a time.   Then they would shampoo.  

This is an excellent practice for most women who use traditional shampoos because coconut oil as a pre-poo, prevents hygral fatigue, the process of hair expanding when wet, then contracting when dry.  This process can be damaging to the cuticle and the cortex and leave the hair weak.  Applying the correct pre-poo treatment could help the hair to take up less water during the cleansing process. This practice can be done for any hair type at any time.

 However for those ladies with limited time in their schedules that are always seeking faster ways to meet their needs, you could opt to use clean, organic hair care products and simply skip the pre-poo step.Try  creamy cleansers like CURLS Creamy curl cleanser and Curlicious Curls cleansing cream.  These formulas are rich and conditioning while cleansing, which are great options for naturally curly hair care that needs all the moisture it can get.

If you are using regular shampoo, and want a faster, cleaner, and safer method, consider opting for an organic hair care regiment over your existing routine.
