Clay Washes on Natural Hair

This year I’ve been making an effort to use more natural products on my hair and skin. I have very sensitive skin, so I have been trying to avoid beauty and hair products that have too many harsh chemicals. I began incorporating clay washes into my hair routine a few months ago, and I’ve found it to be really effective at removing dirt from my hair while not stripping it of all of its moisture. So far I have only tried bentonite clay, but there are other types of clay that you can purchase. Clay washes are simple to prepare, so you won’t be adding too much time to your wash day routine by doing them. The most basic clay wash can be prepared using the clay and water, but I usually add apple cider vinegar as well because it helps to give the clay mixture a smooth consistency.
