Le problème des sulfates et silicones

The problem of sulfates and silicones

by victor stanescu in Information

Strong, uncompromising choices, an identity affirmed right down to our ingredients.

Our products are SULFATES and SILICONE FREE

Sulfate, and especially Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), is an ingredient to avoid in your shampoos as much as possible. It attacks the hair, drying it out, weakening it, and irritating the scalp.

Harmful effects of sulfates and silicones:

Sulfates are what we call the surfactant or the washing base of the shampoo. In concrete terms, that's what makes it foam and makes sure the hair is washed. The problem is that these detergents are too strong: they damage the hair and irritate the skin.
Some people are also allergic to it.

For this reason, silicones are often added to sulfate-laden shampoos to cover up the negative effects and give hair a shiny appearance. But this superficial layer only masks the problem and suffocates the hair, making it even more fragile.

Our products are FREE OF CHEMICAL SURFACTANTS.

  • Surfactants have a desired property : they dilute fatty substances in water by dispersing them. They thus make it possible to modify the tension between two surfaces. This property makes them indispensable in many industrial applications and also in everyday life.
  • Our surfactants are 100% natural and represent a major innovation in the world of cosmetics.

Organic Virgin Coconut Oil from Polynesia , extracted by natural pressing of coconut, is one of the most popular and versatile oils in the world.

Today, it is a hair care essential for all those looking for strong, shiny and healthy hair. Here's everything you need to know about organic virgin coconut oil from Polynesia and its incredible benefits for hair. Helps with detangling and ensures natural shine Coconut oil also facilitates detangling by smoothing and reorganizing the hair fiber scales. By acting as a natural sealant, it fills in the "gaps" present in the hair scales, which improves their resistance to daily aggressions such as washing, brushing, and drying. When applied to the lengths, it repositions the scales and closes gaps, protecting against pollution, heat and chemicals. Additionally, coconut oil is a valuable ally for restoring shine to hair. If your hair lacks shine due to factors like stress, pollution, or frequent washing, regular use of coconut oil will help restore its natural luminosity. Coconut oil deeply nourishes hair, leaving it soft, shiny, and radiant with health. Why is Coconut Oil so Valuable for Hair? Organic virgin coconut oil from Polynesia is distinguished by its extraction method: pure and unrefined, it retains all the essential vitamins and minerals that hair needs to be healthy. Thanks to its richness in vitamin E , in iron and in Vitamin K , it acts in depth to revitalize the hair. Its role in hair cosmetics has been built over time and traditions, becoming today a pillar of natural hair care. To benefit from its fortifying effects, it is recommended to regularly make the HINAITI moisturizing mask based on coconut oil, especially if the hair tends to be damaged at the ends.

Protecting the environment and preserving our planet is our main commitment! Today, we are proud to announce a major milestone in our environmental mission: we recently adopted our first corals in partnership with Coral Gardeners, an organization dedicated to restoring coral reefs around the world. Our coral fragments are planted in an underwater nursery located in Moorea, Tahiti's sister island, and Coral Gardeners allows us to follow their journey until they are transplanted, thanks to a link and regular updates. Since its inception, Hinaiti has been dedicated to providing you with hair care products that are respectful of your hair and, above all, respectful of the environment.

Each of our products you purchase directly supports this cause. It's thanks to you that this adventure is possible. Here's everything you need to know about organic virgin coconut oil from Polynesia and its incredible benefits for hair. Why choose Corals? Coral reefs play a vital role in the balance of our oceans. They are home to incredible marine biodiversity, protect coastlines from erosion, and contribute to climate regulation. Unfortunately, these ecosystems are seriously threatened by global warming, pollution, and overfishing. Restoring these reefs is therefore essential to maintaining a healthy balance for underwater wildlife. A Committed Partnership with Coral Gardeners By joining Coral Gardeners, We are fortunate to collaborate with experts who work every day to replant robust, climate-resistant corals. Their program adopts innovative "super coral" techniques and revives coral reefs while raising public awareness. By adopting corals, Hinaiti not only contributes to the restoration of these reefs, but also supports the research and innovation needed to preserve these marine treasures for future generations. Thank you for supporting our commitment. This action would not be possible without you, who have chosen Hinaiti. With every bottle of shampoo, mask, or hair care product, you become a part of this conservation mission. Together, we are strengthening the brand's impact and extending it far beyond hair care to the oceans themselves. We still have many milestones to reach and environmental projects in development. But today, we wanted to celebrate this first coral adoption and thank you for helping us accomplish this wonderful mission. Together, we will contribute to a better future for our planet and its precious ecosystems. So, thank you!

Pourquoi passer aux shampoings naturels ?

Why switch to natural shampoos?

The cosmetics industry has experienced a real shift in recent years. Between revelations about health risks and the emergence of natural products, the skincare and wellness market is booming, and it's normal to feel lost when faced with a shelf offering hundreds of products. So today, we're going to help you better understand hair products and make a healthy choice for you, your hair, and your environment. Chemical Shampoos: What Do They Contain? Chemical shampoos are the standard on the market, both in the "professional" sector and in perfumeries, pharmacies, and supermarkets. They have a highly attractive message: intense shine, soft hair, and instant volume. However, behind these promises are synthetic, chemical ingredients that are not only harmful to your scalp and hair, but also to your health. The Yuka app, like others, echoes this. Let's identify the main ingredients that make up chemical products. Sodium Laureth sulfate : irritant. Dimethicone: allergic reaction, rash , itching. Methylchloroisothiazolinone : allergen and irritant to skin, eyes and respiratory tract. Phenoxyethanol : Allergic reactions, developmental toxicity, negative effects on blood, liver and fertility. Methylene bis-benzotriazolyl : May accumulate in tissues and cause DNA damage. Benzyl salicylate : Established contact allergen in humans. Butylphenyl methylpropional : also called Lilial or BMHCA is a CMR substance, i.e. Carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic. This substance has been banned in Europe since March 1, 2022 , but it will still be found in many products in 2024... So yes, with chemical products you get quick results, but at what cost? Between sulfates, parabens, silicones, dyes, and even artificial fragrances, in the long run, your hair will be weakened, your scalp will be dried out, sebum production will be completely unbalanced, and in the most critical cases, you could suffer from respiratory, skin, or even hormonal problems. The cosmetics industry thus creates a vicious cycle of additional shampoos and treatments to "repair" the damage they themselves have caused. The revolution of natural shampoos. Faced with this, natural shampoos have become THE solution for preserving our hair, your health, and the environment. Here are the benefits of natural shampoos: Sulfate and paraben free: Does not harm the scalp, gently cleanses without disturbing the hair's natural balance. Naturally sourced ingredients: Natural shampoos favor plant extracts, essential oils, and other botanical active ingredients. They nourish hair from within, restoring strength and vitality without damaging it. They preserve your health. Silicone-free: Natural shampoos allow hair to breathe. They don't seal hair fibers in a layer of silicone, allowing nourishing treatments to penetrate better and strengthen hair over the long term. Good for the planet : Natural formulas have a reduced environmental impact, without microplastics or polluting synthetic ingredients. Additionally, the packaging of natural brands is often more environmentally friendly. Switching to Natural Shampoo: A Smooth Transition If you've been using chemical shampoos for a long time, switching to a natural shampoo may take a bit of an adjustment period. Hair, accustomed to silicones and other surfactants, may appear duller or drier at first. However, after a few washes, your hair will begin to naturally rebalance itself and return to its true, healthier, and stronger self. Why choose the Hinaiti hair routine? At Hinaiti, we have designed a natural hair care range, designed for you, your well-being and that of the Earth: Natural Ingredients: Formulated with over 96% natural ingredients, our shampoos contain Organic Virgin Coconut Oil, Black Pearl and Jojoba Oil to deeply nourish.
