Ep 31: Professional VS Supermarket Haircare

We're back for another episode of Beauty IQ Uncensored, brought to you by Adore Beauty. 

What’s on this episode? We’re glad you asked...

How regularly are you washing your bra?

According to Reader's Digest, you should wash your bra every 3 to 4 wears - we discuss what happens when you don't wash them regularly enough, and circle back to not washing our feet. DM us if you're also a little slack with washing your bras!

Is professional haircare really worth the price?

We asked Natalie Anne whether salon-quality haircare really is better than the supermarket stuff, what ingredients to avoid in your products, and her best haircare hacks.

One of Nat's favourite ranges is O&M: https://www.adorebeauty.com.au/o-m-original-mineral.html?utm_source=omny&utm_medium=podcast

Sulfates (SLS, or sodium lauryl sulfate on the ingredient list) are completely safe to use, but may not be suitable for coloured or keratin-treated hair or people with skin conditions like eczema or rosacea. Sulfates are a detergent designed to cleanse the hair which can cause your colour to fade prematurely although the scientific evidence of such effects is mixed. You can learn more about sulfates here: https://www.healthline.com/health/sulfate-in-shampoo

The optimum styling temperature is 185 degrees. See ghd's research here: https://www.ghdhair.com/articles/dispelling-the-heat-styling-myth
