How to Read Hair Care Ingredient Labels

Many people choose hair-care products
based on one simple feeling:
Does it feel smooth or slippery right away?

In this episode, Wendy and Cindy guide you through a practical introduction to reading hair-care ingredient labels.
Regardless of brand, once you understand the ingredients, you’ll be able to tell:

👉 Why some products feel instantly smooth when rinsed
👉 Which types of “smoothness” come from surface coating, and which come from real conditioning
👉 Where problems like dryness, flatness, or tangling may actually be coming from

This is a foundational ingredient-reading lesson that applies to all brands,
helping you avoid detours and stop being misled by hand-feel alone.

🌿 Highlights

• Ingredient lists are not meant to create fear, but to help you make informed choices
• A quick reading method: focus on the first 5–8 ingredients to understand a formula’s character
• For shampoos, pay attention to the cleansing system (surfactants)
• Conditioner “smoothness” usually comes from three systems:
silicones / cationic conditioning agents / fatty alcohols
• Fine hair does not always benefit from instant coating or heavy film-forming effects
• Identifying the source of hair fall:
breakage from friction vs constitution-related hair loss
• Truly effective smoothness comes from process + distribution + proper usage

如何看懂洗护成分表？

很多人选洗护产品，
都是凭「当下滑不滑、顺不顺」。

这一集，Wendy 老师和 Cindy 老师带你入门看懂洗护成分表，
不论品牌，只要会看成分，
你就能判断：
👉 为什么有些产品一冲就滑
👉 哪些「滑感」来自膜感，哪些来自真正的调理
👉 洗完干涩、塌、打结，问题可能出在哪里

这是一堂任何品牌都适用的洗护成分基础课，
帮你少走弯路、不再被手感误导。

📖 附中英文重点整理，方便不同语言背景跟进

⸻

🌿 Highlight
• 成分表不是用来恐慌，而是用来做选择
• 快速读法：先看前 5–8 个成分，决定配方性格
• 洗发水重点看 清洁系统（表面活性剂）
• 护发素的「滑」来自三大系统：
硅感 / 阳离子调理剂 / 脂肪醇
• 细软发不一定适合「即时膜感」
• 判断掉发来源：
断裂拉扯 vs 体质性脱发
• 真正有效的顺，来自流程＋分布＋用法
