This is a trend that comes from the United States: "No Poo" (No Shampoo concentration). The idea is not to use shampoo. According to the followers of "No Poo", it would do more harm than good to the hair. The professionals are skeptical.
Mimoza has twenties, she is a law student and this is almost 9 months she no longer washed her hair with conventional shampoo. Still, her long brown hair feel nothing and are very beautiful.
"In recent weeks, I allow myself to let go, no later than this weekend, I was complimented"
To wash her hair, Mimoza simply pass with clear water from time to time, but go without shampoo was not easy.
"It was horrible at first, my hair was very greasy But with time, I inquired: I learned that it was necessary to brush hair regularly, I also found alternative shampoo that clean when -even hair. "
Mimoza was interested in the "No Poo" method on the internet: apple vinegar, baking soda, clay. The recipes do not fail to take care of her hair differently.
According to the followers of "No Poo", shampoo would do more harm than good: he "décaperait" sebum, an oily substance secreted by the skin that protects the hair. The scalp, deprived of sebum, then would produce more. Conclusion: the more a person washes their hair, they become more bold.
Dermatologists far from convinced
Professionals are far from convinced "if using the shampoo as normal, this can go up to once a day, there is no problem with self-regulation." Dermatology department head to university clinics Luc Saint Dominique Tennstedt rather warns "No-poo" "oil that would accumulate in large quantities could, with dandruff, form a kind of large rug that will suffocate the hair.
In fact, for Dominique Tennstedt it is absurd not to wash your hair, as it is absurd not to brush their teeth, feet or hands "The scalp has no right to be so dirty all the rest of the body is required to be clean. I recommend at least two shampoos a week, especially for young people who tend to produce more sebum. "
