WHAT IS ACTIVATED CHARCOAL?

Activated charcoal is not the same substance that is found in charcoal bricks or burnt pieces of food. Making activated charcoal involves heating carbon-rich materials, such as wood, peat, coconut shells or sawdust, to very high temperatures. The charcoal is “activated” by processing it at very high temperatures that changes its internal structure, reducing the size of its pores and increasing its surface area. This results in a charcoal thát is more porous than regular charcoal. It has a negative charge, meaning when used in a product it attracts positively charged molecules, as in any toxins or dirts. Because of its porous , purifying properties , activated charcoal is found in a wide variety of health and beauty products, from face masks to toothpastes. The National Poison Control Centre even encourages parents to keep charcoal powder in the home to help counteract absorption of
accidental toxin consumption by children so the performance of charcoal is real over the past year; it’s become one of the hottest ingredients in hair care products.

HERE ARE SOME BENEFITS AND REASONS FOR ITS POPULARITY
1. It’s a powerhouse detoxifier : Activated charcoal is known to act as a magnet which attracts and then removes impurities from your hair and scalp. Activated charcoal can absorb up to 1000 times its weight in impurities, It is also great post-swimming to get rid of any/all chlorine that’s messed with your hair, its natural texture and its color.

2. Add volume to your hair: If you’re carrying around enough dirt and oil, your hair will start to sag and regular shampooing may not be getting it all out. In fact, hair can gain roughly 4% of its own weight in build-up from scalp oils, pollution and dry shampoo. Regular shampoos remove surface dirt, but activated charcoal will pull out even more. The other difference, and this is big, is that activated charcoal isn’t going to leave the residue some shampoos do, so your hair will feel lighter and have more volume and texture.

3. It soothes the scalp: Charcoal soothes itchy, irritated, and flaky scalps and hydrates the scalp to prevent dryness. We can’t forget to treat our scalp with just as much importance as specific beauty routines as we do our skin.

4. It helps products to work better: Removing build up from the hair allows for better absorption of key nutrients within hair treatments and enhances the overall shine and health of the hair.

5. It’s good for all hair textures: HQ professional activated charcoal shampoo and the charcoal cream can be used on any hair type without drying out strands or messing with colour. For best results, you might find that you only need to use charcoal shampoo & cream twice a week, depending on your hair type and the amount of styling products you use. Giving your hair and scalp a regular detoxifying cleanse can prevent excessive build up and the need for everyday shampooing.
