Natural Haircare Basics

Hair grows more slowly as we age and individual strands become
thinner and lost hair is less readily replaced. Boost circulation by
giving yourself an invigorating scalp massage.


Daily Brushing: Use a clean brush to brush hair from root to tip away
from the face. This stimulates the scalp, encouraging blood flow
to follicles,
and distributes natural oils through the length
of the hair shaft.


Clean Your Brush: Once a week soak brushes and combs in shampoo
and tepid water for an hour. Rinse well and allow to dry before use.

Long Or Short: Many women feel short hair is the way to go as
hair becomes
thinner, but long hair in good condition always looks
stunning. Opt for cuts
with some layering to create volume and body,
and with lines that draw attention
away from a saggy chin or frown lines.

Avoid Harsh Shampoos: Dandruff shampoos may contain fungicides and
other
ingredients that can exacerbate an already dry, irritated or
sensitive scalp. Opt
instead for a once-a-week oil treatment
and circulation enhancing massage.


Eat Your Hair Fitter: Make sure you are getting adequate B vitamins for hair health by adding eggs and whole grains, nuts, and seeds to your diet.
