Cécred’s new Protection Collection.
Cécred
First, you’ve got the Detoxifying Shampoo — if a haircare product has the word detoxifying or clarifying in it, it usually means that its main goal is to rid the scalp of excess dirt, oils and grime that naturally accumulates as you go throughout the world. The key here is that these products won’t strip your hair of its natural oils, something that helps with overall hair health and sheen.
The star ingredient — PhytoFerment — enhances nutrient absorption, which means that your hair will be able to properly utilize all of the other ingredients in the shampoo. You can actually find PhytoFerment in every product in this line. Menthol is another key ingredient in this shampoo that works to stimulate the scalp, promoting blood flow, which in turn promotes hair growth. It also offers a nice cooling sensation too.
If you have textured hair like Beyonce, then the Detangling Spray will be your best friend. For our readers with coils, you’ll know that your hair tends to get tangled pretty easily. This detangling spray acts as a conditioner, offering softness and slip that your hair needs to break up knots and tangles. The spray is formulated with Slippery Elm, which provides that slip for detangling, and Aloe Vera Leaf Juice, which moisturizes and soothes.
Finally, we’ve got the Hair & Scalp Balm, a balm-to-oil salve that both protects and soothes the scalp. The balm can be used to prep or maintain protective styles and works best on textured hair types. If you’ve got a dry or sensitive scalp, this balm will be your saving grace. The product hydrates with the help of ceramides and honey, while an African oil blend offers your hair a shiny finish, giving you that “just washed” look. From braiding to blending leave-outs or taming flyaways, this balm does it all.
