Why All Hair Needs SULFUR

SULFUR, often referred to as the “beauty mineral,” is an essential element for maintaining strong, healthy, and vibrant hair. Found in MSM (Methylsulfonylmethane) and other natural sources, sulfur plays a vital role in the production of keratin and collagen, both critical for hair structure and growth. Here’s why sulfur is indispensable for all hair types:

1. Extends the Hair Growth Phase:
   Sulfur in MSM helps prolong the anagen (growth) phase of the hair cycle, allowing hair to grow longer and healthier over time.

2. Promotes Hair Growth:
   MSM supports the production of keratin and collagen, stimulating hair follicles for thicker, more robust hair.

3. Strengthens Hair:
   The sulfur content improves hair elasticity, reducing breakage and making strands more resilient.

4. Improves Scalp Health:
   Its anti-inflammatory properties calm the scalp, reducing irritation and dandruff, which are essential for optimal hair growth.

Incorporating MSM into your routine, as a supplement or topical treatment, can help you achieve stronger, healthier, and longer hair.

Onions are a natural source of sulfur but they do have a strong smell that some may be adverse to. ;) 

If you're looking to buy MSM look for wording like "plant-derived", "from lignin", or "sustainably sourced" to avoid petrochemicals.

Salonsolids uses MSM that is free of petrochemicals and derived from Lignin in our conditioner, which can also be used as a co-wash.
