A Head on your Beer, or a Beer on Your Head ?

This article will give you a little bit of information on howshampoos work to clean your hair. When your hair is at itsdirtiest it will contain skin flakes, dust, salt and oil. Whatthe shampoo has to do is break all of this down and pull it awayfrom your hair. Since water cannot do this on its own, you needthe shampoo to do the job. Modern shampoos contain a soap-freedetergent that actually reduces the surface tension of water andallows it to move into the small crevices in the scalp and hairshaft. As well, oil can build up on your hair and the detergentin the shampoo emulsifies oil up so it can be easily washed away.

It's interesting to see how many different ingredients you willfind in a typical bottle of shampoo. If you like a nice, thickshampoo, salt is used for the thickening, and in order tomaintain the pH of your hair, citrus acids are added. Fruitextracts will actually draw moisture from the hair and therebyassist in hydrating your

hair.

In some shampoo compounds you will actually find egg that addsprotein, and will stick to the porous areas of the hair shaft.In some of the specialty shampoos, beer is added as it coats thehair shaft adding body and shine. Other than adding a pleasantscent, perfumes perform very little function. Remember also thatmost manufacturers will do almost anything to sell theirproduct, sometimes with little regard or care put into themanufacture of it. Remember to purchase a shampoo that isespecially formulated for your hair, thus ensuring the rightamount of oil is removed. Try some samples from your localpharmacy and remember, sometimes the most expensive shampooisn't the best for you.
