Jonathan Hair Products
From LoveToKnow Hair
Jonathan hair products are the enterprise of celebrity hairstylist, Jonathan Antin. Antin understands the importance of high quality ingredients when promoting the success of any styling product. This is why he has formulated his personal hair care line, Jonathan Product, using de-ionized water, and has ensured that each of his fabulous shampoos and styling aids are completely free of sodium lauryl sulfates. Moreover, with the exception of the spectacular Dirt styling paste, Antin's products are all 100% vegan, meaning no animal ingredients are used in the assembling of his hair-care line.
Animal friendly and celebrity acclaimed! Does it get any better? Not according to his clients on the popular television show, Blow Out. Antin is widely known for his adherence to natural hair care, and these meticulous concerns have pushed him to the top.
Jonathan Hair Products: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Free
Jonathan Product's Shampoo Add Moisture Moisturizing Shampoo is one of the most successful wonders of Antin's line. This shampoo boasts the avoidance of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate during its formulation.
So what exactly is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why should consumers care?
Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is an inexpensive detergent that is used in numerous shampoos, cosmetic cleansers, shower gels and many more beauty products. But it is also used in the formulation of garage floor cleaners, engine degreasers, car-wash soaps, and carpet cleaners, because SLS is a very powerful detergent that is known for its highly corrosive properties.
SLS is also a clinically tested skin irritant that is sometimes contaminated with nitrates. These nitrates are potential carcinogens. Furthermore, SLS can strip the skin of important protective lipids that aid in the regulation of moisture. But these concerns aren't just limited to the dermis. Sodium lauryl sulfate is also suspected of causing hair loss because it can eat away at the hair follicle.
Your Personal Hair Environment
Sure, you care about the wildlife and the treatment of animals. So it's a nice call that Antin created most of his products using vegan ingredients. But what about the environmental concerns regarding your personal hygiene?
Jonathan hair products include a Beauty Water Shower Purification System that attaches to your shower and is designed to eliminate chlorine, heavy metals, and VOCs. The end result of this water purification system is balanced water. This will aid in the protection of healthy hair, as many of these environmental toxins have been linked to brittle hair and dry skin. Chlorine is particularly influential in the development of dry damaged hair, and the minerals in hard water can dull your strands.
Jonathan Hair Products Create Options
The Jonathan Product line carries items that are specifically designed for special hairstyles.
The popular Dirt Texturizing Paste is a highly recommended product for grungy hair styles that are built off a "day old" hair effect. This product can be used on clean hair to create chunky separated strands while adding the feel of unwashed hair. This paste is particularly useful for short hair styles that require edge and bounce such as the shag look.
On the flip side, Antin's line also includes a product that makes dirty hair look shiny and clean. This Redo Freshen-Up Mist for Hair & Skin employs the botanical extracts of cucumber and rose to revitalize tired and oily strands. Pomegranate and aloe are also included to condition and promote shine. And, like most Jonathan hair products, this shampoo is completely vegan and free of alcohol, which can dry out hair.
Serious Shampoos
While avoiding harsh detergents like sodium lauryl sulfate, Antin has created an entire line of shampoos that employ sugar surfactants to gently cleanse the hair. Although these sugar foams do not lather as highly as more chemical ingredients, they work well on thoroughly wet hair.
The Jonathan hair product Shampoo Serious Volume Volumizing Shampoo gently cleanses hair using rosemary and sage extracts, and it includes sweet almond protein to coat strands and soothe processed hair. This shampoo also contains UV filters that protect the hair from sunlight, making it another popular choice for individuals interested in caring properly for their hair through natural methods.
