Let’s be real: after all the festivities and big meals, we often find it hard to get back in shape and back towards our usual lifestyle. The same often goes for our hair after a year’s worth of tight hairstyles, bold hair colors, or varying haircuts. That’s why this 2022, as you make the change towards a happier and healthier you, say YES to these HAIResolutions that you can easily do and commit to.
1 Show Some Love to Your Scalp
Different scalp types have different cleansing needs. The easiest and most common way to clean the scalp is to wash and shampoo daily, at least for those who sweat a lot, have an active lifestyle, or have an oily scalp. Otherwise, shampooing every other day is recommended in order to still maintain the hair’s natural oils. Start your 2022 clean and fresh by making sure your scalp gets the cleansing it deserves.
If your scalp is oilier than most, causing flakes and dandruff to appear, try Davines Purifying Shampoo. Coming from the Naturaltech line, this cult-fave and best-selling product has antifungal and antibacterial ingredients that deeply cleanse and purify the scalp for healthier hair without causing irritation.
Another anti-oily scalp must have is Kérastase Spécifique Divalent Anti-Oiliness Masque Ritual. Each product has been designed to regulate excess sebum production to repair and nourish sensitized areas of the hair - leaving your scalp feeling purified, and your hair feeling softer.
2 Replenish and Hydrate Your Tresses
Unlike shampoo, conditioner can be used on a daily basis. In fact, it is suggested that on your shampoo-off days, you still condition your hair to rinse away all the dirt and grime all while encouraging the replenishment of nutrients and hydration of your hair.
Using a leave-in conditioner once a week can also help you keep your hair smooth and shiny. With L'Oreal Serie Expert Absolut Repair Gold Duo Holiday Gift Set ₱ 1,550, you get to do both. Its professional butter-like formula leaves the fibre smooth and 7x shinier* for an overall controlled look, all while immediately cleansing and restructuring sensitized hair.
3 Don’t Forget to Brush
...not just your teeth, but also your hair! Busy lifestyles can mean less time to do this simple task. However, making hairbrushing a habit can mean wonders in terms of detangling and smoothing your hair. Give AVEDA Pramāsana™ Exfoliating Scalp Brush ₱ 2,300 a try through dry brushing: a technique that exfoliates the scalp to help loosen build-up and impurities for an optimal foundation for beautiful hair.
4 Cut the loose ends
Literally and figuratively! Experts agree that trimming your hair every 12 weeks or 3-4 times a year helps in getting rid of dead and split ends. Chopping off even a quarter to half an inch of hair is enough to keep it healthy - all while taking the weight off of your shoulders too! You can book an appointment and visit the NEW HairMNL Studio!
