Are Philip B. shampoos suitable after a Brazilian Keratin treatment? I’ve heard that you shouldn’t use shampoos containing sulfates.
Good question. Unlike permanent straighteners or chemical relaxers, Brazilian Keratin treatments condition hair, and can leave it feeling silkier and smoother. The effect washes out after several weeks, so — to help the treatment last longer — experts recommend using very gentle, non-stripping, sulfate-free shampoos.
Many shampoos containing high concentrations of sodium-lauryl sulfate (SLS) are indeed stripping and drying. But in our case, because Philip B. shampoos contain such a high level of healing plant oils and extracts, we have to use a touch of SLS simply as a emulsifying agent, to make the formulas feel velvety and creamy.
I’d like to try Philip B. products but I have a question about your return policy. I have sebhorreic dermatitis on my scalp and face and can only use a very limited range of products (I’m currently using some Japanese hair salon brands and Nioxin). In case I get a reaction to your products, what is return policy?
I’d start with the Rejuvenating Oil to loosen any dead cells on your scalp and condition your hair. Next, work some Peppermint & Avocado shampoo into your hair and scalp. Let the lather sit on your head for a couple of minutes so the therapeutic ingredients can do their work, then rinse. Follow immediately with the Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo. (Again, let the lather sink in for a couple of minutes before rinsing.) Our products are made with active levels of healing ingredients and have a proven track record for healing. Please do keep in touch and let us know how the products worked for you.
