the more you use it the better your hair should feel. It is important to rotate the use of each shampoo as stated above, to avoid dryness and experience the full effects. We recommend to purchase the totes first to try the Morrocco Method of Hair Care rotation of products.
about detoxing
Morrocco Method products are 100% plant-, botanical-, and marine-based products with natural smells and no foaming. You will detox
as you use our products so expect a possible detoxing period of from 3
to 7 days to strip off the residues, wax build ups, and old chemicals
and for toxins to be removed. This will cause drying of hair, matting,
and dullness. But do not be alarmed. These effects are a sign that your
old products were very toxic and that your hair and scalp are
experiencing detoxing. When this period is over, your hair will
immediately be healthier, more radiant and managable, and most of all,
will be restored back to natural hair follicles. Thus continues your
journey with Morroco Method for the most luxurious hair you have ever
seen.
Shampoo Information
Selecting the Proper Shampoo
While there are no hard and fast rules for shampooing your hair, one
thing is certain: proper scalp hygiene is as critical to luxurious hair
as oral hygiene is to healthy teeth. Your scalp is like the soil in a
garden. If kept clean, uncontaminated and nourished with nutrients for
proper blood circulation, the hair growing in it will flourish and
thrive.
First and foremost is the matter of choosing shampoos that satisfy
all these requirements: highest quality natural ingredients, totally
organic, non-detergent and containing no artificial colors or scents.
Many commercial shampoos on the market—even those claiming to be
“natural”— contain artificial colors, perfumes and detergents that dry
and damage hair, clogging follicle openings rather than cleansing your
scalp.
Detergents and color additives leave harmful coatings on the hair.
Synthetic scents dry out hair, damaging the shafts by making them
overly brittle. The scalp becomes plugged up, disturbing its natural pH
balance. Dandruff, itchiness, premature thinning and significant,
eventual hair loss are the undesirable results.
In addition to harsh chemicals, shampoos containing such ingredients
as berries, tomatoes, guava, etc. are wisely avoided. You need an
effective natural shampoo for your hair, not a fruit salad! However
enticingly “organic” they may sound, these not-so-naturally derived
fruit and vegetable ingredients tend to plug up pores, dry out hair and
disturb pH balance, which damages the natural texture of your hair.
Contrary to ‘conventional wisdom,’ it is not necessary to purchase
special formulas for dry, normal or oily hair. In fact, these
supposedly special-purpose shampoos contain even more harmful, toxic
ingredients.
How
to Shampoo:
Perfect
shampooing requires washing twice. The first wash loosens debris, dead skin
cells, and excess oils from the hair and scalp. The second wash flushes all the
loosened material out, allowing the shampoo to nourish the hair with a longer
scalp massage.
Dilute:
Our shampoos
are super concentrated, dilute it 1:1 with water for easier application.
First Wash:
Apply shampoo
to wet hair, massage lightly to hair and scalp. It won't lather. Rinse.
Second Wash:
Apply shampoo
again, massage longer to stimulate blood flow to scalp and hair.
Rinse again. Follow with Morrocco Method Conditioners for
added hydration.

FAQ's
Are any of these shampoos good for pets?
Yes, we have clients all over the world who shampoo their pets and
animals with all 4 shampoos. While many products claim to be natural
and pure for animals, it is quite amazing how many chemicals are in
your pets' cleansing agents. Please read labels. SLS is dominant in
almost all pet cleansers. We have testimonials from across the globe
from many happy customers just like you, using our shampoos on their
horses, dogs, cats, and other animals.
Are your shampoos color-safe?
All our Morrocco Method products are 100% color-safe!
Which shampoos are good to remove make-up?
We get e-mail from women all over the world who use the Sea and
Earth Shampoos for removing make-up and exfoliants.
Which shampoos are good for general hand wash?
All four shampoos are excellent for daily hand washing and will not
dry nor wrinkle skin. Alternate and see how gentle natural soaps really
are on one's hands.
What is the difference between shale and tar?
Coal tar is a petroleum product and very damaging to one's all
around good health not to be used on the body, while shale is a rich
natural deposit of decomposed trees. Millions of years ago, large
forests of ferns and evergreens decomposed and formed large reservoirs
underneath the earth surface of very rich shale. We get our shale from
Germany in a natural state which is rich in various rare trace
minerals. These trace minerals are healing in varying degrees for the
scalp and hair alike. This is a cure all for a multitude of scalp
problems, plus a general radiant effect on the hair itself giving it
new life force and brilliance. There is no comparison between tar and
shale. And one should avoid all products with tar/coal tar in its
ingredients.
Article: "your shampoo may be hazardous to your health"
How toxic is your shampoo? More than you might think! That bottle
which promises you thick, luxurious lather and beautiful bubbles may
not only be damaging your hair, but its ingredients could also lead to
diseases, hair thinning and loss, and even scalp damage.
The culprits behind the dangers in most shampoos are surfactants
called Sodium Laurel Sulfate (SLS) and related compounds. SLS is
possibly the most dangerous ingredient a consumer can find in most
shampoos. So potent is SLS, studies have linked it to serious skin and
scalp irritation and disease, hair loss and damage and the ability of
the chemical to create nitrate compounds which have been linked to
cancer and cell damage.
SLS is often disguised by a variety of chemical names such as
diethanolime) (DEA, triethanolamine (TEA) and monoethanolamine (MEA).
All are common in almost all shampoos. These ingredients, plus other
equally dangerous cousins to SLS, such as Sodium Laurel Sulfate, Sodium
Laureth Sulfate, Disodium Laureth Sulfosucinate are made by separating
Lauric acid from coconut oil and treating with sulfuric acid, or by
making lauric acid synthetically, or Lauamide MEA, Cocamide DEA,
Cocamide MEA, made from Lauric acid and ammonia. Even hair care
products that label themselves as "natural" may contain these
potentially fatal ingredients.
Sodium Laurel Sulfate. Three
words that every consumer of hair care products should be aware of and
know what they mean. Read your shampoo's label and you'll probably find
it contains Sodium Laurel Sulfate (SLS), or one of its derivatives,
such as Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES). DEA, TEA or MEA. It is a
chemically toxic surfactant, which means it is a wetting and foaming
agent. The purpose of SLS is to lower the surface tension in the water,
allowing the shampoo to spread out more easily and to penetrate when it
is applied to the hair. Additionally, since manufacturers believe that
consumers equate lots of suds with cleaning strength, SLS gives a high
level of foaming power to the product. It is a chemical ingredient very
similar to liquid dishwashing soap. In fact, traditionally, it was used
in industrial factories as a compound to degrease engines. And
consumers should be aware that compounds found in SLS are hazardous. In
"Dangerous Beauty" by Mark Fearer, it is revealed that "... in tests,
animals that were exposed to SLS experienced eye damage, along with
depression, labored breathing, diarrhea, severe skin irritation,
corrosion and death."
The American College of Toxicology states that SLS and its cousin
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES) can cause malformation in children's
eyes. Other research indicates SLS may harm the immune system,
especially within the skin. Cosmetic Science reports that the detergent
action of SLS may damage the derma's cellular ability to maintain
moisture. This is why there are many reports of dryness, roughness and
redness and brittle skin by users of shampoos that contain this harmful
ingredient. So potent a chemical is SLS, scientists in Japan have used
SLS as a laboratory agent to deliberately cause mutations in test tube
bacteria, changing the genetic information found in the bacteria's DNA.
Despite the lather, products containing SLS does not mean one is
cleaning the hair in a healthy fashion. The cleaning power is
overwhelming, stripping the hair. This is why people often use a
conditioner after shampooing with SLS, in order to put "manageability"
back. And, usually, the conditioner contains more chemicals, creating a
viscous cycle guaranteed to result in dry, brittle, lifeless hair and
damage to the skin, scalp and hair.
SLS does more than strip
the hair of its natural oils. It removes beneficial bacteria that are
essential to maintaining a healthy scalp and head of hair. Once the
"good" bacteria have been vanquished, harmful germs have an open
playing field, resulting in rashes, hair loss and allergic reactions.
A typical shampoo contains about 50% sodium laurel sulfate, some
sodium sterate and about 40% water. In addition to this brew,
manufactures may add a baffling array of ingredients that read like a
chemistry book. Check the label on many shampoos and any one of the
following may be listed: Sodium Laureth Sulfate, MEA, DEA, TEA Laurel
Sulfate, Cocomide or coconut oil. All of these compounds are commonly
used surfactants related to SLS and have the same potential health
dangers.
DEA and MEA are often "neutralized" in the
manufacturing process. Consumers can tell if they are being exposed to
these harmful compounds when names like Cocamide DEA or MEA or
Lauramide DEA are listed on the label. These chemicals are capable of
disrupting human hormones and may form cancer-causing nitrates. Dr.
Samuel Epstien, Professor of Environmental Health at the University of
Illinois has said, "repeated skin applications of DEA based detergents
resulted in a major increase in the incidence of two cancers-liver and
kidney cancers."
The health evidence against SLS and related
compounds grows every day. Reports in the mainstream press and
scientific journals increasingly sound alarms about the damages to
which these chemicals are linked. A Consumer's Dictionary of Cosmetic
Ingredients by Ruth Winters states that "shampoos are among the most
frequently cited complaints to the FDA. Reports include eye irritation,
scalp irritation, tangled hair, swelling of hands, face and arms, and
split and frizzy hair."
In a November, 1998 report in the Wall Street Journal, a study
linked SLS to cataracts and nitrate absorption. During the
manufacturing process, SLS comes into contact with other chemical
compounds, most notably triethanolamine (TEA) and
N-nitrosodiethanolamine (NDELA). This interaction creates nitrate
compounds, which can enter the body.
Chemical absorption by the skin is particularly acute with shampoos.
Our skin is not a uniform barrier. Hair follicles, sweat and sebaceous
glands are minute holes in the derma layer. Investigations by the Oak
Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee found that structural factors of
the skin, such as hairiness, influence what chemicals may be absorbed
into our bodies. SLS was found to increase the rate of absorption as it
reacts with the chemicals, preservatives and dyes found in many hair
care products. They are easily absorbed through the scalp and skin and
can accumulate over time in tissue and organs, such as the brain,
causing chronic toxic effects and can stay in the body for up to seven
days.
Unquestionably , SLS is the most damaging ingredient found in most
shampoos. It is the standard compound used in scientific testing labs
as a skin irritant. Industrially, SLS is used to strip machinery of
grease and is the cleaning agent found in car wash detergents. When
added to hair care products, SLS and its destructive twin, SLES, have
the potential to cause chronic skin irritation and strip the hair of
beneficial oils and bacteria. This damage can lead to thinning hair and
noticeable hair loss.
Shampoo makers are beholden to SLS
because they believe the consumer wants sudsing action and, more
importantly, because it is a very cheap ingredient. With almost half of
a shampoo's weight comprised of SLS, manufacturers are reaping huge
profits at the consumer's expense in the pocketbook as well as risking
the long-term health of the user. It behooves anyone purchasing hair
care products to be an educated buyer. Always check the label. Read the
ingredients. Be aware. Ingredients such as SLS not only can cause
damage to hair, but to one's long term health, as well.

Anthony Morrocco has, for over 40 years, carefully studied and
practiced holistic hair care. His quest to find a naturally based
treatment for hair and scalp problems began with his apprenticeship at
world famous Kenneth's, a posh New York salon, where his clients
included Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Mrs. Vincent Astor, Mia Farrow, Lauren
Bacall, Joan Rivers, Faye Dunaway, Liza Minelli, and numerous other
celebrities.
For years, Anthony watched as the rich and famous walked into
Kenneth's with hair care problems and left with the same problems, only
covered up with styles, perms, blow drying, gels, mousses, bleaches and
chemicals. Anthony discovered that, regardless of the money spent on
traditional hair care, the problems just didn't go away. This
realization inspired Anthony to create a new system of hair and scalp
treatment that would have successful, long term results.
