Ask Lucy:
Why is pH so important with hair?


23 - 11 - 24

The foundation of shiny, luminous hair starts with pH. While internally our bodies thrive in an alkaline environment, our hair and scalp's ideal pH is acidic. Creating pH balance is absolutely crucial to avoid breakage, dryness, frizz and colour fade of your hair.


Ask Lucy

Tell-tale signs that your hair's pH is out of balance are:

— Hair feeling dull or dirty directly after being washed

— Your scalp is itchy

— Hair feels hard, brittle and crispy to touch

— Curly hair that is unruly or frizzy

— Curl that is irregular, feels weighed down and lacklustre

Healthy hair’s pH sits between 4.5 – 5.5 which is on the acidic side of the pH scale. Chemicals, salt water and poor quality shampoos make the hair’s pH more alkaline, opening the hair cuticle where valuable proteins, colour pigment, lipids and moisture are lost.

Restoring natural hair acidity also protects the scalp and hair from bacterial and fungal growth that can cause dandruff, itchiness and hair loss.

A single application of pH + Shine Corrector will restore your hair's natural balance by smoothing the cuticle, locking in vital nutrients for glossy, velvet smooth hair. The synergistic blend of fermented apple enzymes and vitamins in our pH + Shine Corrector performs a dual function, breaking down dulling mineral and product build-up while sealing the hair cuticle which locks in essential nutrients to keep hair reflectively smooth and resilient.
