Could There be More to Black Volcanic Ash Than Meets the Hair?

Allegedly there’s legal action being taken against Kate Hudson and David Babaii, her hair stylist-guru-to-the-stars, in the Superior Court of Los Angelos, over a verbal agreement with 220 Laboratories. The Laboratories allege that Hudson and Babaii have committed fraud, misappropriated trade secrets, are in breach of confidence and contract, plus up to 13 other midemeanours.

The secret ingredient to the new line of hair products, which is about to transform the hairdressing world, is black volcanic ash, from the remote tropical island of Tanna, in Vanuatu, in the South Pacific.

Researchers recently discovered that the average woman uses 176 different types of chemicals on her body, in her daily beauty schedule. The use of volcanic ash is part of the world wide drive to use more natural products.

This is not the first time volcanic ash has been used in health care of the body. The Volcanic Earth, based in Vanuatu, sells the best beauty tips from Vanuatu, an exclusive exfoliating ‘Ash Power’ body scrub, produced from fine crystals of sugar and volcanic ash. The scrub has the same color as fertile black soil. It has the feel of fine granulated sugar being rubbed on the skin. The exfoliating action is produced by chafing the grains back and forth, scrubbing away dead cells of skin. After a few minutes of scrubbing, the grains melt away in lightly fragrant, moisturizing foam.

A user of the volcanic ash product described it as, “A bit like dying your own hair. The stuff is as black as squid ink and gets everywhere you don’t really want it to be. The face cloth I used to remove it in the shower will never recover. I’m glad we have a handheld shower so I could quickly hose the splatters from the grout. My husband would have killed me.”

The rich mineral, oil absorbing volcanic ash includes sulphur. This has been used for generations to manage a wide variety of skin conditions. The volcanic products are said to detoxify and restore life energy through the ancient minerals.

You can now purchase an Ash Thermal Mask, or an Exfoliation Scrub and even a Prep & Prime lip refinisher, used as a base for lipstick, all made with volcanic ash. According to Kate Hudson and her partner you can now also control fly away hair.

It is incredible what pulverized rock and cooled molten glass, produced by violent volcanic eruptions, can do. The locals in Tanna may be burning away their fortune, as they collect the ash, instead of wood, to use on their fires to cook their meal. Particularly since the area has been stripped bare by the action of the volcanic ash. I’m sure when it comes to the end result; however, there will be a dispute of who owns the precious ash, which liberally litters the plain around the base of Mt Yassur, turning the landscape into a wild scene from a science-fiction movie?

There is an additional valuable use for the ash, which only nature can manipulate. When high intensity of volcanic ash is erupted into the air, as was experienced in 1991 after the Mt Pinatubo eruption, there was a universal cooling effect. The ash can remain suspended for days and sometimes even up to years, cooling the earth by screening the sun. I wonder if anyone has thought that a string of volcanic eruptions could be the answer to the world’s crisis of global warming. Will nature come to our rescue?
