Los Angeles: Good Hair Day

Soy-Sham_500px_ns.jpg

With so many great natural products on the market -- lotions, facial cleansers and soaps-- I'm often disappointed by shampoos and conditioners that tout their chemical-free properties. At the risk of sounding like an infomercial, such products leave my hair feeling stripped, dry and the conditioners often do nothing to add moisture or silkiness.

But recently I learned about a Los Angeles-based company called Lamas Beauty that only manufactures products that are vegan, free of Parabens, Propylene Glycol, Dyes, Sodium Lauryl and Laureth Sulphates, DEA, TEA and Petrochemicals.

I tried the Soy Balancing Shampoo and Conditioner, and was pleasantly surprised. They worked better than the other salon-quality products taking up space in my shower and they smelled terrific (rose geranium), which is a big plus in my book. The products are available at Whole Foods, select salons and on the website.

Any great natural hair products you can't live without? Do tell because we could all use a good hair day.
