Hair Products and Their Connection to Acne and Break-outs

Hair products can be a major aggravating factor of acne. You will notice these breakouts around the hair line, forehead, temples and even the scalp. Certain ingreients in hair products will seep into the pores leaving them clogged. Coconut oil and coconut products for example, may be good for you to eat, but is highly comedogenic. This means it will clog your pores and make your acne worse. Don’t use.

We recommend Dermachange Thick and Full shampoo and conditioner (Amazon). This will not cause breakouts or acne; it is non-comedogenic. This can be used on ALL hair types! Another brand we recommend is Giovanni Smooth as Silk shampoo and conditioner. Kinky Curly is another (Target). These can be used on ALL hair types as well!

As far as hair oils and brushes go we highly recommend 100% pure argan oil/spray, grape seed oil or jojoba oil or Giovanni Frizz Be Gone. The EZ Detangler brush is great used as a regular brush or detangler!
