Additionally, medicinal herbal hair care products can fortify weakenedstrands, add shine and softness, balance scalp pH, rebalance oiliness, and rehydrate dryness.
Organic powder hair colour products are made with naturally derived ingredients from plants, flowers, and minerals, rather than synthetic chemicals.
