RAW ROOTs - Hair Shot De-Greasing oil treatment - 2 x 10 ml

This delicious Hair De-Greasing Shot - helps the scalp breathe again and protects against fungus and dandruff. The oil has a wonderful fresh scent of sage and lime. Organic Sage removes excess fat from the scalp and light coconut oil maintains the vitality of the hair and controls fat accumulations.
This oil can be used on loose hair and on dreadlocks.

Why use oil when the scalp is oily?
It may seem strange to use oil when the hair is already greasy, but in fact it is the case that grease dissolves grease.
So by using this oil, the oily scales and excess fat on the scalp is dissolved and then it can be washed away with shampoo.
Hair and scalp become greasy because you overproduce sebum, so you feel it needs to be washed more often with stronger shampoo, but in fact it's just the opposite.
If you wash your hair less, not as much sebum is produced and if you use a sulfate-free shampoo, production is also minimized.

We recommend using Herbal Cleanser or Greenie Genie soap bar if you suffer from oily scalp and oily dandruff.

How to use oil shot for oily hair:
Step 1 - Wash hair with shampoo and towel dry. We recommend our natural range of organic shampoos for best results.

Step 2 - Apply the oil to your scalp:  Place the needed amount of oil in a bowl or tiny bottle and put this in a warm water bath to warm the oil. Gradually work the oil into your entire scalp and massage thoroughly for 3 - 5 minutes. The stimulating effect on your scalp will help stimulate healthy new hair growth and rid your scalp of dead skin cells. After you have massaged your scalp thoroughly, you can work the oil outwards to the ends of the hair. (can be omitted if you only want treatment on the scalp) For scalp treatment use approx. 1 bottle and if you want to distribute the oil throughout the hair use both bottles depending on the thickness of the hair.

Step 3 - Cover the hair with a cap/plastic and towel. A shower cap helps keep the oil treatment warm. Gather your hair under the shower cap and wrap a towel around it. This retains the heat and opens the hair follicles so that the oil penetrates deeper into the skin and hair. Let the cure sit for as long as possible and a minimum of 30 min.

Step 4 - Wash it out Rinse with warm water under a shower. The hot water will reactivate the oil to give it an extra boost. Turn down the heat and wash your hair, you may need to wash twice to make sure the oil is completely removed. Repeat weekly to maintain optimal condition if you have very oily skin.

These high quality products are hand made by Lisa. She has work experience as a hairdresser and that has learned her a lot about hair and scalp. Furthermore she has followed some courses in herbalism and studied the healing properties of plants for medicinal applications and cosmetic use. 
She says that there are more then enough plants with advantages for hair and skin, and that it is way better to use these as ingrediënts instead of their synthetic, usually harmfull substitutes.
Lisa lives in the midst of nature in a self-built house made of recycled materials. That's where she produces her own handmade products.

RAW ROOTs is een gamma biologische verzorgingsproducten voor dreadlocks. Een aantal van deze producten zijn zeker ook bruikbaar voor gewoon haar met low-poo methodes (shampoo zonder residu), voor het verzorgen van droog haar (ook voor niet-dreads) en voor het wassen van het lichaam.

Deze hoog kwalitatieve producten worden handgemaakt door Lisa. Ze heeft werkervaring als kapster, waardoor ze veel leerde over haar en hoofdhuid. Ze volgde verder nog opleidingen in kruidenleer en bestudeerde hun eigenschappen voor medicinale toepassingen en cosmetisch gebruik. Ze stelt dat er meer dan voldoende planten zijn met fantastische eigenschappen voor huid en haar, en dat we veel beter deze bestanddelen kunnen gebruiken dan hun synthetische, meestal schadelijke vervangers.
Lisa woont tenmidden van de natuur in een zelfgebouwd huis, gemaakt van gerecycleerde materialen. Daar maakt ze ook al haar producten.
