Nothing is more admired than a glossy, healthy looking hair, regardless of the colour or length.
Yet many people neglect their hair and subject it to daily damage Stress, poor diet, hormonal imbalance and simple maltreatment can quickly result in dull-looking hair, split ends and at worst, hair loss. Brush up on your hair care and bring back that shine. Hair is composed of strong, elastic strands of protein, called keratin, with chemical blends of elements, including oxygen, iron, nitrogen, hydrogen, sulphur, carbon and phosphorus. It is made up of three different layers-the cuticle, the cortex and the medulla. The cuticle, which is the outer layer, has a scaly surface, which helps to protect the inner layers from external damage, and it is soft enough to allow the penetration of chemicals used to colour and perm hair.
