7 Tips to Ageless Hair
Hair, like skin, changes with time. Your hair care routine might not produce the same results it once did. You don’t have to take it lying down. Read on to learn more about why your hair changes, and how to keep your locks healthy and vibrant with simple anti-aging tips.
Detox Your Locks!
Can You Detox Your Hair? You’ve been there. You fall in love with a new hair product and for a while everything’s golden – your hair looks good, you feel great… until things start going south. Your hair doesn’t have that bounce like it used to. Maybe it’s getting harder to style. The texture seems off; dull, flat and lifeless.
Is it Dandruff or Dry Scalp?
Many people mistake common dry scalp for dandruff. Dandruff is likely not caused by dryness, but by an overproduction of oil in the scalp, which creates an overgrowth of harmless yeast that feeds on excess oil and skin cells. Your age, sex, diet and certain illnesses can be culprits. Unlike dry scalp, not shampooing enough or sensitivity to some hair products can be major factors contributing to dandruff.
