Harsh industrial strength chemicals are often found in shampoo products, all but destroying fragile new hair as it emerges from the scalp. Heavy artificial wax materials are used commonly in conditioning products, hugging the hair follicles with residual materials and weighing existing hair down so it appears thin, limp, and unhealthy. In addition, many hair care styling products contain artificial lacquers designed to coat the hair shaft with a hard, clear finish as a fixative. This material in turn blocks hair growth and plugs hair follicles, very much the same way that the hair loss culprit DHT inhibits growth.
There are no waxes or film forming ingredients in Activ8 formulas. When using Activ8 products, you are assured of receiving the best possible treatment to revitalize the scalp and promote maximum hair volume and density.

Sulfate Free
Sulfates are used to produce a lathering affect as well as to emulsify oils, dirt and residues for cleansing purposes. However, it can also damage, dry and cause breakage of the hair. The harsh nature of sulfates strips the hair of its natural oils, leading to dryness, decreased elasticity and breakage. One common sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, is believed to cause eye irritations, skin rashes, and flaking of the scalp. However, because it is cheap, it can be found in most shampoos, but not in Activ8!
Paraben Free
Parabens are the most widely used preservatives in cosmetic products. Chemically, parabens are esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid. The most common parabens used in cosmetic products are methylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben. Typically, more than one paraben is used in a product, and they are often used in combination with other types of preservatives to provide preservation against a broad range of microorganisms. The use of mixtures of parabens allows the use of lower levels while increasing preservative activity.
Activ8 features safer preservatives from natural sources as an alternative to Parabens.
Color Safe
Our color safe products are gentle to hair and will not strip the color, helping to maintain the hues and to prevent fading.
Vegan
Activ8 has no animal based ingredients or by-products and has not been tested on animals.
