With repeated use they tend- ed to defat the scalp and hair ieaving the scalp itchy and dry, and the hair unmanageable and duli. In areas where the water was hard (high minerai content) the soap shampoos left a scum or film on the hair which was dulling and unpleasant to feel. The trend over the past decade has been away from soaps to cleansing agents which do not form mineral films and make the hair unmanageable. The pH of shampoos has, in some cases, dropped below pH 8 because most of these cleansing agents do not require an alkahine pH base. Soap, in order to be effective, must be formulated in an alkalin.e pH. However, the trend has also been toward more frequent shampooing - daily in many cases - 50 that it is perhaps even more i mportant to consider the effects of p H on the hair and scalp during shampooing and as a Participation Hlouse R aises Funds Through Pedal Power If you were in the Bowman- ville Maîl last Tbursday you probably saw volunteers taking a ride on this exercise bicycle.
