How Long, is Too Long

0 Comments

We women are serious about our deep conditioning – a day will be preselected, we’ve decided on our deep conditioning snack and what to watch as we detangle. It’s a ritual that is greatly appreciated by our hair. How long do you condition your hair; 60 minutes, 2 hours, overnight?

conditioning 1

It’s all about balance, ladies. The goal is the perfect protein to moisture ratio….which means, not over conditioning your hair. 20- 30 minutes will do; the key ingredients that can stick to hair will do so within seconds of applying the conditioner. After 30 minutes from initial application, hair no longer absorbs conditioner. Adding heat assists in the swelling or opening of cuticles, allowing for increased benefits of your conditioner’s ingredients. Mission complete!

All summer I will be stressing the importance of moisturizing your mane, but it’s also important to follow the “everything in moderation” motto. Having too much of a good thing (conditioner) can actually start damaging your locks and cause limp, greasy strands over time.

Blueberries, Get Your Blueberries

Eating fruits, vegetables, and lean meats is a smart way to stay healthy, but consuming blueberries for hair health and growth is something you may not have considered. When it comes to best fruits for promoting hair growth, blueberries are often placed on the top list. They are rich in vitamin C and other essential nutrients that can help maintain the healthy circulation of your scalp and also help improve tinny blood vessels of follicles to work better.

Blueberries are classified as a super food. Each little berry is packed full of vitamins and antioxidants to help keep the body healthy. They nourish the body from within and reach out to help a person’s crowning glory grow. Blueberries offer a wealth of nutrition in a small package. Blueberries contain 80 calories per cup, almost all of which come from 16 grams of carbohydrates (sugars) in the berries. Blueberries contain virtually no fat and a negligible amount of protein. One cup of blueberries contains a whopping 16 grams of fiber.

Celebrate National Blueberry Month and your hair by including blueberries in your diet!

Care for your Fine Hair: Hair Care Prescription for Color Treated or Relaxed Hair

0 Comments
color-treated-relaxed-fine-fragile

How you take care of your hair depends on the type of hair you have, your lifestyle, and how you style it.  We have developed personalized Hair Care Prescriptions & Hair Care Regimens for all types of hair and textures.  Our Regimen for fine or fragile hair that has been color treated or relaxed promises to keep it healthy, while sealing in moisture and letting it shine.

Our Hair Care Regimen for Fragile or Fine Hair that has been Color Treated or Relaxed contains:

·         Moisture Nourishing Shampoo

·         Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner

·         Revitalizing Leave-in Conditioner

·         Hair Nourishing Cream

·         Hair Nourishing Serum

        This regimen retails for $72 when purchased separately, you SAVE $13!

When hair is damaged from coloring or relaxing treatments, it becomes dry & dull and can cause the hair to break.  For people with fine or fragile hair, choosing a mild shampoo is essential.  Our Moisture Nourishing Shampoo is gentle enough for daily use, yes strong enough to cleanse your hair and scalp to restore it to a balanced Ph.   

Your conditioner should not add extra weight to your hair.  It should have wheat proteins, a key ingredient to enhance volume. The proteins bond to the hair and will help increase thickness of the hair shaft.  Our Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner contains hydrolyzed wheat protein along with natural vitamins and minerals.  These ingredients bond to hair’s cortex providing strength, shine, and elasticity!  (Insider Tip: Use Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner in place of shaving cream.  It will leave your skin feeling soft and smooth.)

Perfect for fragile, color-treated or relaxed hair, our Revitalizing Leave-in Conditioner will work as a protective barrier against further damage.  The lightweight formula should be sprayed on wet hair and will add an extra level of protection when blow drying or flat ironing hair, and from the sun.  This product is great for detangling, especially when used on children’s hair.

Finally, by adding a couple drops of our Hair Nourishing Cream and Hair Nourishing Serum your hair will feel vibrant and will have an incredible shine.  The Hair Nourishing Cream is an ultra light hair finisher designed as a daily moisturizer to help detangle and repair damaged hair.  The Hair Nourishing Serum contains 13 essential oils, vitamins, and botanicals that all work together to deliver incredible strength and stop hair breakage.  A few drops of both of these will go a long way but will never leave your hair feeling greasy or weighed down.

All of these products used together will give your hair the proper care and attention it deserves.  Your hair is a valuable asset to your appearance and taking care of the health and growth is necessary.  If you have fine hair that has been damaged from coloring or relaxing treatments, click here to begin your healthy hair care journey.
