I'm not that well versed when it comes to surfactants but seeing the list and that there are sooooo many surfactants would you consider this a harsh shampoo? Are all of these surfactants milder that sls? I will do a list on mild surfactants in the next post. In general most shampoos whether sls or sls free have surfactants, admittedly Jane Carter has very many.
I don't think that more surfactants makes it harsh, if the surfactants are mild, then having more of them is necessary to increase the cleaning power. Remember that milder surfactants tend not to clean as well i. The best way to judge harshness is by using the product.
I'm finding conflicting information about it. Is it a harsh sulfate? Do you mean magnesium laureth sulfate because magnesium sulfate is just a salt and is not a cleaning agent in shampoo? If you mean magnesium laureth sulfate then it is similar to SLES. If you mean magnesium lauryl sulfate then it is similar to SLS.
You can judge the harshness in the table above but ideally you should really trust what your hair and scalp is telling you does your hair feel very dry after shampooing, does your scalp get itchy or irritated after washing Now I'm wondering what to do with my 32 oz!!! I wanted to inquire Jc--if I only shampoo-wash 1 time a month, do you think it would be okay then to use the Olefin Sulfonate containing-shampoo still? Or is any use at all causing the most irritation due to residues?
My other question--with the shampoos listed above, do you think there is correlation or causation with why the two with Tea Tree in them have the harshest surfactants? Or do you think this might be coincidence as it's not yet an extensive list?
I'm wondering if other Tea Tree containing shampoos have CC14 as well? I ask because I am a fan of Tea Tree shampoos, and would otherwise be looking to replace this TT, with another brand. I check into this and send you some ingredient lists I might come across. Q1 - If you shampoo just once a month, you are probably going to be fine even if you chose a clarifying sls shampoo.
If you find yourself itching soon after your shampoo or your hair feels super dry then it is time to change. If not, your shampoo is fine for you. Q2- I have a list of about 50 shampoos and their ingredients and these are the ones that came up with olefin sulfonate.
I think that it is an interesting observation about tea tree and the CC14 olefin sulfonate. I cannot explain it though and yes we would need more tea tree type shampoos to say there is a correlation.
Thanks for your reply :- Qthanks! I will keep this in mind! QWow, okay, I misread the post, my apologies and thanks for the clarification. I think it's interesting as well, I might look for some and see if they are already on your list. Jc, I wanted to ask a question: remove the sulfates lightweight silicones hair? What do you think about the cleansing agents in Lamas rice protein volumizing shampoo?
Hi : In some sulphate-free shampoos I've used I've seen something called Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate in the ingredients. This sounds suspiciously similar to SLS, is it also a harsh sulphate or is it different?
Thanks for your input! So I know all these chemicals are harmful. What about recommending brands for use on the hair and body that have none of these things?
I seem to think this shampoo and the hair milk leave in is pretty good. What do you think about these products? If you are happy with it, that is what counts. I am not one to try many products so I have not tried the brand you talked about. Hey there! I just want to add a correction I've tried many of the Giovanni poos and none of the had olefin sulfonates in them! Perhaps earlier formulations had this ingredient. I actually found them all to be rather gentle.
Simply put, sulfates are harsher than sodium C olefin sulfonate. Generally speaking, sulfonates are less stripping than lauryl sulfates. Both can be drying and strip your hair but should only be used to get rid of product buildup. Cosmetics and Toiletries does a great job giving a scientific explanation on the differences between the two. However depending on your day to day hair routine you may need to use a clarifying shampoo to alleviate build up.
If that is the case, look for shampoos with sodium c olefin sulfonate rather than sulfates. It is a safe and effective surfactant to use when necessary. Most of us have a rather cursory knowledge of chemistry, but we are all gravely aware that sulfates are a big no-no for our hair.
Unlike sulfate, sodium c olefin sulfonate is actually made up of the salts of sulfonic acid. This makes it very different from a sulfate. But neither of them is totally safe and you will need to use it with caution. Sodium c olefin sulfonate can be quite effective at stripping away molecules wedged in your hair. Furthermore, if you have frail and damaged hair, you should stay far away from this chemical.
Due to it being a powerful detergent, sodium c olefin sulfonate can strip already damaged hair to an absolute brittle state. Considering how sodium c olefin sulfonate is a powerful cleansing agent, using this on colored hair is not ideal. Surfactants are typically too harsh for colored hair and using them can cause your hair to lose its color faster.
Any standard shampoo with surfactants in its ingredient list is too dangerous to use on color-treated hair. This is because the detergent properties are able to penetrate deep inside the hair follicle, resulting in swelling and color leaching.
Typically, whenever water enters your hair strands, it will cause a fading of the color. The only difference between using a surfactant-free shampoo and surfactant shampoo is that the fading process is slower with the former. The cuticle layer needs to close up properly to avoid stripping agents from penetrating deeply into the color molecule.
Once the cuticle has closed up, your color molecules get trapped inside which ensures long-lasting hair color on your beautiful locks. To put it plainly, no it is not safe to use sodium c olefin sulfonate after a keratin treatment. To be actually convinced that there are negative consequences, more research has to be done but for now, we can rely on the recommendations of professional hairstylists.
Generally, hair professionals condemn the use of surfactant shampoos or cleansers after a keratin treatment. Surfactant shampoos can be seriously stripping for your hair as these are more powerful than a typical surfactant-free shampoo. Furthermore, once your hair is treated with keratin, the hair strands become chemically processed and more vulnerable damage.
Eventually what you will be left with is a dry and damaged mane. This can exacerbate frizz as well. This chemical can be really irritating on your skin if you somehow get it on there, but it can be healthy for your hair under the right circumstances. This stability is attributed to the sulfonate groups covalently bonded to a carbon; conversely, sulfate-based surfactants tend to hydrolyze below pH 4 due to inorganic ester bonds that cleave and yield a sulfate anion and an alcohol.
The pH stability of Olefin sulfonate has generated additional interest over lauryl sulfates and lauryl ether sulfates for both claims and performance. Olefin sulfonate also allows the material to be provided as a preservative-free aqueous solution, using excess alkalinity for preservation. Olefin sulfonate AOS have been used successfully for many years in laundry and personal-care products throughout Asia. Among their documented positive attributes are good cleaning and high foaming in both soft and hard water, rapid biodegradability, and good skin mildness.
Also, the relationship of AOS powder particle size to surfactant solubility at various wash conditions was examined to allow determination of the optimal size for both detergency and processing of laundry powders. Both paste rheology and powder morphology are critical factors for the successful use of high-active Olefin sulfonate in compact powder detergents. Olefin sulfonate combines the advantages of high foaming power, good emulsification, mildness to the skin, and excellent lime soap dispersion to give the formulator maximum flexibility in the preparation of light and heavy-duty cleaners.
Olefin sulfonate is also suitable for use in acidic formulations such as those containing alpha hydroxyl acids or salicylic acid. Olefin sulfonate is perfect for sulfate-free personal care and detergent products. What Is Olefin sulfonate? The numbers indicate the average lengths of the carbon chains of the alpha olefins. In cosmetics and personal care products, Olefin sulfonate are used mainly in shampoos and bath and shower products Why is Olefin sulfonate used in cosmetics and personal care products?
Olefin sulfonate clean the skin and hair by helping water to mix with oil and dirt so that they can be rinsed away. Olefin sulfonate is an olefin featured by the position of solid bond reactive unsaturation at the two end carbons in carbon chains.
Olefin sulfonate and their derivatives are used as comonomers in polymer such as low density polyethylenes for the properties of lighter, thinner, better flexibility and more tearing resistance. Olefin sulfonates are used in the production of linear plasticizers, oxo-alcohols, motor fuels, lubricants, automotive additives, biodegradble surfactants, paper size, and in a wide range of specialty applications in the production of mercaptans, flavors and fragrances, alkyl metals, halides, alkyl silanes.
Olefin sulfonate is used primarily as a detergent cleansing agent, but is potentially drying and can aggravate skin. Can be derived from coconut. Useful as an emulsifier and foam booster in various preparations, also functions as a wetting agent. Applications: Body washes, shampoos, bubble baths, cleansing lotions, various personal care cleansing products.
Country of Origin: USA Raw material source: Ethylene, coconut oil Manufacture: Olefin sulfonate is a mixture of long chain sulfonate salts prepared by the sulfonation of alpha olefins.
Olefin sulfonatee are produced by oligomerization of ethylene and by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis followed by purification. Also, the relationship of Olefin sulfonate particle size to surfactant solubility at various wash conditions was examined to allow determination of the optimal size for both detergency and processing of laundry powders.
Alpha Olefin Sulfonates, Olefin sulfonate, liquid AOS is a third generation surfactant having excellent properties in wetting, blending, emulsification, solubility, good stability at high temperature, and detergency.
It has high foaming characteristics, mildness, less resistant to hard water and excellent bio-degradable. AOS is used for high foaming liquid detergents, high quality sampoo, soap, bubble baths and light-duty liquid detergents.
AOS is used for heavy-duty laundry formulations. Alfodet L46 is a detergent active of the anionic class. Olefin sulfonate AOS is an extremely light coloured liquid, thanks to efficient sulphonation, with low inorganic salt and un-sulphonated matter. No bleaching of the neutralised AOS is done after hydrolysis, ensuring that all supplies of Alfodet L46 are safe sultones within tolerable limits. Olefin sulfonate is an effective emulsifier and has excellent foaming characteristics.
Its resistance to water hardness and other metallic ions is very good, and it is stable over a wide pH range. It is superior to conventional detergent actives with regard to bio-degradability, mildness to skin, cold-water solubility, rinsability, flash foaming, and detergency in hard water. Olefin sulfonate helps to overcome the sting caused by conventional detergent actives.
A combination of LABS and Olefin sulfonate in certain proportions can yield synergistic detergent action, which can result in improved performance of a given total active or reduced cost for a given performance.
Olefin sulfonate AOS is suitable as an active for general detergent products such as detergent cakes and powders, toilet and laundry soaps, liquid detergents for fine fabrics, dish- and floor-washing liquid, woolen- and carpet-washing applications, scourers and shampoos, bubble baths and shower gels. Olefin sulfonate liquid can replace LABS in detergent powder by incorporation at a 1.
