Can You Put Lotion In Your Hair
Or Is It A Bad Idea?
Greasy Hair
Lotion typically contains emollients and moisturizing ingredients that are meant for the skin, not the hair.
When applied to the hair, it can make it appear greasy and heavy.
Clogged Pores:
Some lotions contain ingredients that can clog hair follicles and lead to
scalp issues such as dandruff or acne if they come into contact with the scalp.
Lack of Hair
Lotion doesn't provide any of the benefits that hair products, such as conditioner or hair oils, offer.
These products are specially formulated to moisturize, condition, and protect the hair.
Wash Out
Lotion may not wash out of your hair easily, and you may need to use a significant amount
of shampoo to remove it completely, which can strip your hair of its natural oils.
Hair Health:
Using products designed for the hair can help maintain its health and appearance.
Lotions are not formulated to address specific hair needs like frizz control, damage repair, or volumizing.
