"Understanding Hair Aging: Causes and Solutions"

Your hair undergoes a life cycle. Each strand typically lasts between 2 to 7 years before falling out and being replaced by a new one, although this may not always happen. Genetics and aging also play a role in this process.

As we grow older, changes in our hair cycle, color, and texture become more apparent. Common issues such as thinning and dryness may arise. Factors like stress, medications, and genetics often contribute to these changes. However, you can combat the effects of aging on your hair with these helpful tips and tricks!

Keep your hair moisturized!

As we get older, our hair tends to become drier and coarser, especially with the presence of grey hair and the use of coloring and heat styling products. To maintain moisture in your hair, remember to apply a Hair Mask once a week.

I recommend using:

• Unite 7 Seconds Hair Masque

• Unite 7 Seconds Detangler

Take Hair Supplements

You might need additional vitamins to support your hair health. Hair supplements can be beneficial in such cases. When searching for hair supplements, pay attention to the following key ingredients:

• Vitamin A

• B Vitamins

• Vitamin C

• Vitamin E

• Iron

• Zinc

• Protein

Scalp Treatments

Sometimes, we overlook the importance of showing some extra love and care to our scalp. Over time, our scalp accumulates product residue, dirt, and oil. Simply washing your hair frequently might not completely remove all the buildup from your scalp, potentially leading to clogged pores. It's beneficial to give your scalp a gentle massage to promote circulation. Opt for products specifically designed for the scalp to maintain healthier hair.

I recommend using:

• Scalp Massager

• Dr. Barbara Sturm Scalp Serum

Use a Humidifier

In the winter or if you have a dry scalp, using a cooling humidifier can alleviate itching and flaking. Additionally, it can improve the condition of your skin as well.

Low Heat Styling

I wish I could say to avoid heat styling completely, but for most of us, that's not practical. When styling your hair, opt for the low heat setting to prevent over-drying. And always remember to apply a heat protectant before using any heat styling tools!

I recommend using:

• Unite 7 Seconds Detangler

• Unite U Oil

• Unite Smooth & Shine
