In essence, petrolatums hide the problem, rather than solving it. <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Petrolatums have to be eliminated by sulphates, which means that as well as not caring for the hair, they require more aggressive washing, which in the long term can compromise the integrity of hair health.<\/p>\n\n            <\/div>\n        \n        \n        \n\n        \n\n\n    <\/div>\n\n\n    \n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; el_class=&#8221;text-align-center dektop&#8211;only&#8211;md&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"container desktop--only--md\">\n\n    <div class=\"content-default-module text-align-center margin-top-between-modules\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        golden_top_border\n        \"\n        style=\"margin-bottom: 0px;\"\n    >\n\n                <div class=\"content-default-module-titles\">\n                            <h2 class=\"content-default-module-title uppercase golden_color\">NO POO<\/h2>\n            \n                    <\/div>\n        \n                    <div class=\"content-default-module-content\">\n                <p>The No Poo technique consists of eliminating the use of shampoo from the hair routine.
