Taking control of frizzy hair

Frizzy hair, it is hard to manage and hard to control, but one sure thing, is that frizzy hair lacks hydration.  You heard it right, when hair is frizzy, it is because the hair's cuticle, which is the protective outer layer of your hair, gets flayed out in different directions.  In healthy hair that is hydrated, the cuticle will stay sealed and the hair will be shiny and smooth.  Frizzy hair, can be controlled by reducing the amount of friction that is placed on the hair and as you know by now, hydrating the hair.  Frizzy hair, is also more prone to breakage and breakage can result in hair loss.  Here are a few tips on keeping your hair well hydrated:

• Start from the inside by making sure to drink plenty of water every day.  
• When you wash your hair, it is important that you never vigorously scrub it, doing so, can cause friction which can lead to frizzy hair.  
• Use products that are moisturizing and not harsh on the hair. Look at the ingredients and try to stay away from any shampoos, conditioners or styling products that contain high levels of alcohol or chemicals as these are things that will dry your hair.  
• Keep your hair hydrated. Try not to use high heat products frequently, they will dry out your hair when used too often.

Living with Trichotillomania

Trichotillomania, yes it is a mouthful, but for those 2.5 million Americans of all ages that live with it, it is a difficult struggle on a daily basis.  Not only is Trichotillomania a bad habit, it is a neurological disorder that causes people to pull out their own hair. As time progresses, and hair is pulled out of the same area by the root, it can leave permanent hair loss.  Although it may affect men it is predominant in women.  We see people who have this and it is heart breaking because it is so difficult for the afflicted individual to control.

How long can you wear a set of hair extensions?

Hair Extensions can be costly and we all want to get the most bang for our buck, don't we?  So, how long should hair extensions last?  When applied properly, hair extensions can last up to 6 months. Anything longer than that can cause tension on the hair and that can cause breakage.  Hair extensions should not last for less than 2 months when installed using the right methods.  Always selecting the right type of extension method will insure the longevity of your hair extensions. Look for methods that do not require hot glue, braiding or sewing as this could cause temporary to permanent hair loss.
