TIRED DAMAGED HAIR
Is your hair looking worse for wear?
Maybe with your busy schedules, you haven’t had the
time to give
it all the attention it deserves!
While
we are out and about visiting our clients, making sure
that they
look after themselves the weather is playing havoc with
our hair!
Ultraviolet rays from the sun (that’s a joke I hear
you say!!!) break down some of the natural protein bonds
in hair. A little exposure to the
sun’s rays won't have too detrimental an effect
on healthy hair
(particularly if your hair is dark), but it can be pretty
tough on hair
that is chemically processed. Overexposure to wind can
roughen
up hair cuticles as well.

TIPS TO ACHIEVE HEALTHIER HAIR
1.
Normal, dry or chemically treated hair will benefit from
a weekly intensive conditioning treatment. Always comb
intensive treatment through to the ends of your hair.
Cover with plastic and a towel
around the hair for up to 30 minutes (to help trap heat
in). If you are short on time look for an instant conditioner
to use after each shampoo.
2. Environmental
changes throughout the year can leave your hair dry, greasy
and flyaway.
It is a good idea to change shampoo when you feel the need
(at least every couple of months).
3. Avoid rough
towel drying, gently press hair down after washing. If you
have long hair use a comb to remove snags, not a brush.
4.
Limit the use of hot blow drying tools, crimpers, and curling
irons. Before using them protect the hair by applying
a heat buffering spray.
5. Rinse shampoo
out of your hair thoroughly, wash and condition it especially
well after swimming in a chlorine filled pool.
6. Finally,
eat a well balanced diet including fresh fruit and vegetables
and help to ensure your hair receives all it's vitamins
and minerals which it requires for healthy growth. If you
know your diet is not quite as good as it could be, try
a supplement with vitamins and minerals. They must both
be used together to benefit your hair and body.
