Hair Care Myths: Don't Believe the Hype
Urban myths aren’t limited to horror movies; don’t believe everything that you hair… We’re cleaning up some myths about hair care.
More shampoo = cleaner hair
Don’t get yourself into an unnecessary lather and waste shampoo. Just a squirt (about the size of a quarter) is usually enough for long hair. Very long hair may take a little more. Our solid shampoo bars last for 50- 80 washes; evidence that a little does go a long way. The secret to clean, healthy hair is not the amount of lather your shampoo creates; it’s the ingredients in your shampoo. Read the labels, learn about the ingredients and know why they’re there.
You must shampoo every day
We sell shampoo so we could certainly benefit from keeping this one under wraps, but we believe in honesty. Shampooing too frequently can harm hair and lead to excess oil production. If you have extremely oily hair and shampoo twice a day, cut back to once. If you shampoo daily, try every other day instead. It can take two to three weeks for your scalp to adjust, but the benefits will be worth the bother. Wear your hair up or use accessories to keep your hair under control until the awkward phase passes.
You have to change shampoos frequently
While your mane may have its own quirky personality, hair does not get bored and ...
How to Choose the Right Henna Color for Your Hair
One of the amazing things about our preservative-free, and all natural LUSH Les Cacas henna hair colors is that they look different on everyone. We can’t say exactly how Les Cacas will turn out on your hair because they work more like a gloss or varnish than a traditional dye, so it depends a lot on the colour of your hair now. That’s why we recommend you doing a strand test before you do your whole head.
The first thing to do is think about what results you’d like. You've got four choices to choose from: Caca Noir, Caca Brun, Caca Marron, and Caca Rouge.
Caca Noir: If you've got darker brown to black hair, you can expect a dark, blue-black indigo tint. We don't recommend Noir for light hair colors as it has a lot of indigo, which is naturally a bluish green shade.
Caca Brun: Mousey brown, medium and dark brunettes can expect a glossy, unified rich coffee brown color with Caca Brun. Lighter blonde and grey hair will turn several shades darker, turning brown with a green cast. Adding another coat of the same color will darken and develop it further.
Caca Marron: If you hair is very dark in color, it will become glossy, shiny ...

Feeling Thirsty?
When your hair is experiencing a drought it's time to provide some much needed hydration. The key to caring for dry hair is to nourish it with moisturizing blends of fruit and nut butters for healthy, quenched locks. Begin with a shampoo that's designed to gently cleanse while leaving behind moisturized tresses. Godiva 2 in 1 Solid Shampoo Bar does just the trick with a mixture of Shea and cocoa butters to rehydrate and soften dry hair. Next, follow up with an extra dose of conditioner to quench those tough tresses with insatiable thirsts. For day to day softening we recommend Jungle Solid Conditioner Bar with fresh passion fruit and avocado butter to drench hair in lightweight moisture.
