HAIR CARE TIPS, FACTS & MYTHS

HAIR CARE FACTS

✔ Moisture helps improve hair flexibility and reduce breakage.

✔ Oils help seal moisture into the hair but do not provide hydration on their own.

✔ A healthy scalp supports healthy hair growth.

✔ Consistency is often more important than constantly changing products.

✔ Protective styles still require regular cleansing and hydration.

✔ The best protective styles are low-tension, low-manipulation styles that protect the hair without placing excessive stress on the scalp and hairline.

✔ Hair health starts from within. Nutritional deficiencies can affect hair growth, strength, thickness, and retention.

✔ Certain medications may contribute to shedding, thinning, or changes in hair growth patterns.
