What Causes Product Build-Up?

Product build-up can be caused by both your natural hair oil and also some hair products. A lot of the time the products we use contain ingredients including mineral oil, petroleum, waxes, butters, heavy oils, high molecular weight silicones….. So all the thick heavy stuff! These types of ingredients don’t always wash off easily and are not water-soluble. This doesn’t make the products or ingredients all bad.
