Frequently Asked Questions
-
What sets the latest clean hair products apart from natural or organic options?
Organic hair care products must adhere to rigorous criteria established by the USDA Organic program. On the other hand, natural hair products, which do not have a formal legal definition, typically use ingredients found in nature or derived from natural sources. Clean hair products, also lacking a specific legal definition, are distinct in our offerings because of The Credo Clean Standard™. We enforce this standard to exclude over 2700 ingredients linked to adverse environmental or skin impacts, ensuring our clean hair products are both safe and effective. -
How effective are new clean hair products in addressing specific hair concerns?
The latest clean hair products are just as results-driven as traditional hair products and are designed to address specific hair concerns without compromising on safety or sustainability. For example, dry hair can benefit from clean ingredients such as nourishing oils like argan and jojoba, while oily hair can benefit from natural ingredients like tea tree oil to balance scalp oils. Sensitive scalps can also find relief with fragrance-free formulas with gentle, clean ingredients like aloe vera and chamomile. -
Are new clean hair products sustainably produced or packaged?
Not necessarily. This is why, at Credo Beauty, we have set sustainability and packaging guidelines for the products we carry. Our new hair products follow these guidelines by using recycled, recyclable or biodegradable packaging and avoiding harsh chemicals that can harm the environment. However, it's important to note that there is still room for improvement in the beauty industry when it comes to sustainability, and we are continuously working with brands to encourage more eco-friendly practices. -
Can new clean hair products be used in conjunction with other hair care routines or styling products?
Yes - and this makes them great to gradually incorporate into your current hair care routine if you aren't sure what to expect. Once you start seeing the difference the latest clean hair products make for your strands, you'll want to switch over completely! -
Are the latest clean hair products suitable for sensitive scalps or individuals with allergies?
All the latest hair care products we carry are free from the ingredients itemized on our Dirty List. As this includes common allergens and irritants, our products are generally better suited to those with sensitivities. Fragrance-free and hypoallergenic formulas are good options to look for, and you should always patch test new products before using them on your scalp. Sensitivities to ingredients can vary, but as we constantly push for greater levels of transparency in the beauty industry, we're aiming to make pinpointing ingredients as easy as possible. -
How do the latest clean hair products contribute to overall hair health in the long term?
The latest hair care products we stock are formulated with gentle, natural and nourishing ingredients that can help improve overall hair health in the long term. By avoiding harsh chemicals and using clean alternatives (such as coconut oil, hyaluronic acid and vegan protein), they provide gentle yet effective cleansing and conditioning for all hair types without disturbing the natural balance of the scalp. This can lead to stronger, healthier hair over time.
