HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR SCALP?

WHY SHOULD WE TAKE CARE OF OUR SCALP? When focusing on daily hair care, we often forget about the scalp, even though it also determines how our hairstyle will look. Neglecting the scalp exposes it to dryness, itching and unsightly flaking, which can lead to dandruff or other, more serious dermatological conditions that weaken the hair and cause it to fall out. The condition of the scalp is crucial to the condition of the hair, which is why it is worth taking care of these two aspects of our beauty comprehensively. WHAT ARE THE BEST COSMETICS FOR THE SCALP? Many people limit their hair care to regular use of shampoo and conditioner, but this is not enough to keep it in good condition. We should also reach for additional cosmetics for the scalp, such as Ayurvedic hair therapy, which, in addition to strengthening weakened hair and stimulating its growth, also improves the condition of the scalp by moisturizing and nourishing it. In addition, it is worth systematically using a scalp tonic and scalp oil. HOW DOES SCALP TONIC WORK? The scalp tonic is designed to help maintain its proper pH and support the proper functioning of its lipid coat. It is perfect for this purpose. ayurvedic hair tonic – it effectively affects hair, making it thick and shiny, but also takes care of the condition of the scalp, reducing its oiliness and soothing irritation. The scalp tonic can be used practically every day. HOW DOES SCALP OIL WORK? Scalp oil is a cosmetic designed for oiling treatment, which aims to regulate the sebaceous glands.

BASIC MYTHS ABOUT HAIR CARE

DOES HAIR GROW FASTER WHEN YOU TRIM IT? This is one of the most popular myths about hair care. Many people believe that regular hair trims will improve their condition and encourage them to grow faster. Meanwhile, the truth is that it does not affect their growth in any way. It can only make them look better, because after evening out the ends, they will stop splitting and tangling. If you really want to speed up their growth, reach for the right natural hair cosmetics , for example Ayurvedic hair tonic, which strengthens hair bulbs and intensifies their growth. HAIR BECOMES USED TO COSMETICS AND DUE TO THIS THEIR EFFECTIVENESS DIMINISHES OVER TIME? This is another myth about hair care that we need to debunk. Contrary to what you might think, long-term use of hair care products does not make them less effective. Properly selected hair care products will be effective as long as we use them properly or the condition of our strands does not change. The condition of our hair can change depending on the seasons, diseases we suffer from, and even dietary changes, so sometimes it is necessary to change shampoo or conditioner to meet their needs - not because the hair becomes resistant to their effects. DOES DYEING DESTROY YOUR HAIR? Some hair care myths have a grain of truth to them. This is one of them. Dyeing can indeed damage your hair, but only if you use chemical dyes instead of natural dyes. Chemical dyes contain many potentially harmful substances, while natural hennas contain a lot of nutrients, and as a result, they not only do not harm your hair, but even improve its condition. Thanks to them, your hair: delight with saturated color; become strong and thick; gain silky smoothness; acquire a beautiful shine. That is why we recommend bio henna as excellent natural cosmetics for hair care. THE MORE CONDITIONER WE APPLY TO OUR HAIR, THE BETTER IT WILL WORK? Nothing could be further from the truth. A larger amount of conditioner applied to the hair will not bring greater effects, on the contrary, it can reduce them. Hair care cosmetics, even natural ones, should always be used in moderation. That is why each of the natural hair care cosmetics offered in our store has a short instruction manual - it is worth following it, it will be good for your hair. Contrary to popular belief, such recommendations of manufacturers of natural hair care cosmetics are not contractual, their purpose is to ensure the safety of using a given product. It is not known where such myths about hair care come from. However, we advise you not to follow this advice, it is better to listen to the famous saying that "Too much of anything is unhealthy". THE MORE A SHAMPOO FOAMES, THE BETTER IT IS FOR OUR HAIR? Another myth about hair care that can be dismissed as a fairy tale. Foam has nothing to do with the effectiveness of the shampoo, it is just an addition. In chemical hair care cosmetics, the foam is caused by SLS, a chemical active substance that works quite aggressively and causes many negative side effects. In natural hair care cosmetics, such as the Ayurvedic natural ginger and lemongrass hair shampoo or the Ayurvedic natural jasmine and almond shampoo, this role is taken over by saponins, healthy and safe substances of plant origin. So if you are wondering about choosing hair care cosmetics, do not be guided by their foaming capabilities, instead focus on their nourishing capabilities.

WHY IS IT WORTH TAKING CARE OF PROPER HAIR CARE? Hair is one of the most important elements of appearance, which shows our attractiveness, so we should take care of it so that it is beautiful and healthy. It requires some patience and systematicity, but it is worth it.

Otherwise, the hair will lose its shine, become brittle and fragile, and even start to fall out. WHAT HAIR CARE MISTAKES SHOULD YOU AVOID? Common hair care mistakes include: washing too often (excessive moisturization causes the hair to dry out faster); washing in hot water (high water temperature causes hair cuticles to not close), constant curling/straightening (excessive unnecessary cosmetic treatments, especially those using high temperatures that hair does not like, significantly weaken its structure); using shampoos with SLS instead of natural hair cosmetics (strong, chemical detergents can damage the hydrolipid coating of the scalp and cause irritation).

Choosing natural hair cosmetics we should be guided primarily by our individual needs, i.e. the current state of our hair, its condition and length.

OIL-FREE TONIC OR OIL THERAPY? WHICH IS BETTER FOR ME?

WHAT IS HAIR TONIC? Ayurvedic hair tonic is a natural hair care cosmetic based on water and extracts from various Indian plants, including amla, neem, gotu kola and bhingraj. Since the consistency of such an oil-free tonic is very liquid, it is always sold in the form of bottles with an atomizer that allows for convenient application of the cosmetic using a delicate mist. WHAT IS HAIR THERAPY? Ayurvedic hair therapy is a natural hair care product containing a mixture of herbs and vegetable oils. Unlike an oil-free tonic, the therapy has a slightly thicker consistency, which is why the bottle usually does not come with a sprayer. However, applying this cosmetic should not be a problem - it is done in the same way as with most conditioners. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HAIR TONIC AND A HAIR THERAPY? Both the oil-free toner and hair therapy , are designed to make our hair strong, thick and shiny. However, they do this in different ways. Hair tonic works primarily on the scalp, restoring its proper pH and rebuilding its lipid coat, and additionally moisturizes, soothes irritations and regenerates hair follicles. Hair therapy, on the other hand, works more directly by rebuilding the structure of damaged hair and preventing split ends, but also has moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties. HOW TO USE THERAPY AND HOW TO USE HAIR TONIC? Oil-free hair tonic is very easy to use, because it does not require rinsing. Just spray your hair with a few drops of the product and then massage it thoroughly into your scalp. It is best to repeat this procedure daily. In turn, therapy, unlike hair tonic, is created on an oil basis, so it can be used for oiling. To do this, spread a few drops of the product over the entire length of your hair, leave it for a few hours or overnight, and then wash it off. Such oiling can be done several times a week. THERAPY OR TONIC – WHAT TO CHOOSE? Regardless of whether you decide to buy a hair tonic or a therapy, the treatment will bring similar results. Both of these cosmetics have similar advantages: strengthens weakened hair stop hair loss stimulate new hair growth nourish and give shine When making a choice, you can therefore be guided by your personal preferences. If you like oiling, reach for a hair therapy. However, if you do not like the oil consistency of the therapy or simply do not have time for such treatments, consider choosing an oil-free hair tonic.
