Shower water deposits including calcium copper and lead ages hair
and causes baldness
Rain water which fills aquifers and community ground water
has dissolved minerals and a ph below 7. Other surface water travels via lakes
and rivers and has less minerals as it has not passed down through the earth
and collected in aquifers or wells. But as city and urban communities grow then
more and more pollution fills the water and that creates bacterial growth.
Water treatments plants are then forced to add chlorine to kill the bacteria
and lime (calcium) to then manage these high chlorine levels. Chlorine will
also oxidize and damage a person’s hair and skin.
These minerals like calcium, copper, lead, iron, and
silica’s are positively charged and they will attach to a persons hair. Once
these minerals are attached then they block coloring, and relax perms. Most
people wash with warm water which opens hair pores. Thus these minerals get
inside the cuticle and attach to the proteins within your hair and skin. Calcium
(lime) is found in ground water and also added via water treatment plants.
Calcium builds up on a person’s hair and will leave hair dry, brittle and
weighted. Calcium build up on the scalp is dandruff and it is also part of hard
water. Most homes in America
have hard water, or water with a lot of minerals within it. Calcium can clog
the pores and prevent hair growth and balding which is very problematic for men
and women. Silica found in water near desert climates and volcanic areas has a
similar effect as calcium in adding to hair loss.
Other minerals like copper in pipes, in home water systems
will also bond to a person’s hair. Copper will discolor hair and will relax a
perm. Iron also found within a person’s hair may tint hair darker, but attaches
to hair and will prevent coloring to remain. Iron causes light hair to begin to
look orange, and iron and magnesium will oxidize hair and make it dry.
Additionally lead which is in gray hair cover-up products will build up and can
make a hair coloring more temporary. This causes a person to buy it more often,
so it is best to find a gray hair coloring product without lead for longer term
results.
We at Blue Planet Organics have a solution to these water
mineral problems which is sodium bentonite clay for the hair. These minerals
have a positive charge and sodium bentonite has a negative charge, so the clay
will remove calcium, silica, magnesium, iron and lead from the hair and scalp
pores. There are a number of sodium bentonite hair recipes available online.
We suggest a good one is to combine eight tablespoons of
bentonite clay, two tablespoons of honey, ½ cup of water, a couple of
tablespoons of Aloe Vera gel, and a 3rd of a cup of coconut butter
all mixed together. A person must only use a plastic or ceramic bowl and spoon
so the clay is not neutralized. Add more water if needed. Once it is slightly watery in consistency
then apply to the hair until thoroughly covered. Leave on for 30 minutes (with
a shower cap), and then rinse in the shower, or over the sink with non top
water. Later condition as normal and a person can do this once a month or more
often to maintain hair and prevent mineral deposits that are in everyone’s
homes. This can prevent dry hair, brittleness and most importantly hair loss.
It will also save on the cost of coloring and perms which these mineral
deposits destroy. A person can learn more about sodium bentonite clay by typing

engines. Also see other recipes
