Welcome Back, Diego!Glad to see you returned and that I could help you a bit.Anyway, my Italian is poor:), but I wonder if the "Soja" could be soy protein. The other word I cannot help with.You did not indicate what type of hair you have. Is it dry, normal, oily? Regardless, I might recommend a jojoba oil based shampoo to you. Jojoba naturally regulates the sebum on your scalp. If your hair is dry or oily, the stuff attempts to regulate it to "normal." If your hair is "normal," it keeps the flow going:) For shampoos, in my opinion, you want a product which is gentle, cleansing, but not stripping in any way. I prefer to use a castile-based shampoo rather than the sodium lauryl sulfate in most commercial products. It is a much gentler sudsing agent.For conditioners, the argument with your mother might be resolved this way. If your hair tends to get dry, I think it is important to put some on your scalp. My hair has a tendency to get dry and I always use a bit there. However, the bulk of a conditioner for me is focused on the ends of my hair. If your hair is oily, focus on non-scalp area.I think I remember you saying that you brushed after drying your hair because you looked akin to a scarecrow. With a good conditioner, you should not look that way.Encouraging growth with vitamins and other supplements is possible. I will leave that to your discretion re e-mailing me. You might also massage your scalp.Bye for now,Jade21Hi everyone again!!
