Product Spotlight: Cleansing Co-Wash

 

What is co-washing?

Co-washing refers to the process of cleansing ones hair with a conditioner. This is used as a way to lift dirt and build up off the hair without fulling stripping it and losing moisture.

This has become popular in the natural community for it's moisturizing and conditioning benefits. As many folks with curly hair often struggle with moisture retention, this is a great way to combat that. Sometimes our hair doesn’t need to be fully cleansed with a shampoo, it just needs a quick cleanse that still retains moisture.

Strands of Faith Cleansing Co-Wash is not similar to regular conditioners. It is specially formulated to be a gentle cleanser without the harsh sulfates and drying agents used in regular shampoos. It is great for the naturalistas who dislike using shampoo more than one time within the week or if they swim or workout often. This Co-Wash should not be used if your hair is weighed down with a lot of products; it is better to use the shampoo bar.

Benefits of Co-washing:


Gently cleanses hair: The co-wash is not hard on the hair. As it is formulated without sulfates, it does not strip and does not leave hai feeling dry and brittle.

Provides rehydration: Sometimes our hair isn’t ready for a full shampoo but you’re wanting to open the follicle to let in some water and hydration. The co-wash is a great way to do this while conditioning and softening the hair.
