pH stands for potential hydrogen, or the acidity or alkalinity of a product. 7 is the neutral spot for pH but anything between 6.5 to 7.5 is considered to be a neutral range. Anything above 7 is alkaline and anything below 7 is acid. If an acid is mixed with an alkaline then the pH will be changed. If the acid is weak and the alkaline strong that the item will be an alkaline.

pH is measured by using “litmus paper” If an item is alkaline it will turn the paper purple or green. If the product is acid it will turn orange or pink.

A pH balance skin care product is one that is adjusted to have the same pH as the hair or skin. This is an attempt to keep someone from using a product that is too-alkaline. The real fact is that most of the time the pH of the product does not effect how irritating it will be to the skin.

One study showed that whether a product had a pH of 5.5 to 10.5 did not affect whether it would be irritating to the hair or skin.

Most good natural skin cleanser, moisturizers and hair conditioners have a pH level between 3.5 and 5.5 which is close the pH level of the skin or hair. While most natural shampoos have a pH level over eight, which is much more alkaline then that of the skin or hair.

The fact that a product has been adjusted to be pH balanced can dry out the skin because of the substances that have been added to the product to balance the product.

To make a shampoo pH balanced manufacturers often put chemical acid called triethanolamine (TEA), which may be contaminated with nitrosamines that have been known to cause cancer.
