Youthful Looking Hair

Youthful Looking Hair

The quest for youth is not limited to facial and body treatments, but has now expanded to keeping aging hair shiny and youthful.

Is My Hair Thinning?

That's a question I hear from my clients constantly. The answer may be yes. As we age like with our skin, we lose elasticity, moisture, and our hair texture changes. In addition, stress, traumas like surgery or accidents can cause our hair to shed, a lot. From my experience with my clients, trauma and stress shedding will subside and your hair will eventually fill in. But thinning from aging is something I have seen increase in the past years. Possibly from environmental issues, internal problems or genetics, but most likely, in my opinion, from chemical abuse that has not properly been addressed.

Anti-Aging Hair Products

A term usually related to skin care treatments, anti-aging hair care products are now everywhere. What professional hair stylist have know for years, products lines are now catching up to, and that's making all hair beautiful, no matter what the age of it, with anti-aging moisture and vitamins.

But most women, while spending hundreds of dollars on skin and body treatments, neglect the one fashion accessory that completely defines them, Their Hair!!

What I Recommend to my Clients

On every single head of hair that I do, I use Morrocan Oil. The originator of Argan Oil in hair products, Morrocan Oil is rich in vitamins F and A to fortify hair and improve elasticity, Vitamin C to protect against free radicals and phenols to shield against environmental stress. Morrocan Oil also is an anti-oxidant and has a UV protector to prevent color fading and sun damage.

If you cannot afford Morrocan Oil, you can find a form of Argan Oil at Sally's Beauty Supplies around the country or online. I highly recommend the original version however.

Take My Advice

Listen, if your hair looks old, so do you! Do something for yourself and your hair, talk to your stylist if you have one and if you don't , get some Morrocan or Argan Oil. No need to over use this product, a little goes a long way.

Directions:

Shampoo, Condition (always), towel dry, then use a small amount of the Oil and work through your hair stating at the ends, then style as usual.

BTW Morrocan Oil also has a fabulous Shampoo and Conditioner!

Have a Happy Hair Day!

The Positive Benefits of the Glycolic Facial Treatment

When applied the glycolic acid permeates through the skinssuperficial layers breaking up the sticky matter that binds dead skin cells. Once those skin cells are freed up they can be easily removed, leaving the skin smoother, softer and more radiant. Other benefits are:

• Stimulates Circulation
• Minimizes Fine Lines and Wrinkles up to 80%
• Increases Collagen so Skin is More Supple
• New Living Cells Retain Moisture Better
• Younger Looking Skin
• Defining in the Treatment of Acne
• Speeds Up Cellular Turnover

Glycolic Acid is a natural AHA and non-carcinogenic. A Series of six or more Treatments is highly recommended to achieve best results. There is no recovery time after treatments, side effects are rare.

Glycolic Acid is a purely professional treatment that should be performed in a salon or spa by a highly trained skin care specialist.

There are other more gentle AHA and BHA acid treatments, but in my experience Glycolic is the most effective for visible results. I do not recommend over doing it, however, as it can also over dry your skin if improperly used.

The ultimate goal in any skin care regimen is to promote collagen cellular renewal. When we are young, we reproduce skin cells in a matter of days. As we age, our cell reproduction slows leaving our skin dull and sagging. As stated before, Glycolic Acid skin care treatment speeds up cellular turnover, leaving a more youthful glow.
