It is better if you use a shampoo that does not contain these chemicals. Although in some cases, it is extremely essential for the person to shampoo everyday. These people must take a lot of care of their scalp and hair by massaging the scalp with oil such as castor or olive. This will increase the blood circulation in the scalp and will stimulate the hair follicles thus making their hair strong.
