Frequent Asked Hair Questions!
FYI: Dryness: Contrary to popular belief, dry hair does not lack oil - most of us produce enough natural oil (sebum) to keep our hair healthy. What dry hair lacks is water (moisture). Open cuticles along the hair shaft allow moisture to escape into the air, resulting in dry hair with short-lived sheen.
What to Use At Home: Creme Hairdress and a Leave-in Hydrating Conditioner.
In Salon Treatment: Hair steamer & a deep moisturizing conditioner.
FYI: Dandruff: The skin is constantly renewing itself causing dead cells to fall off as new cells from beneath them. This unnoticeable process normally takes approximately 28 days, but with Dandruff and Dermatitis it is much faster, occurring in up to seven days. The result is large visible flakes that appear as an overly dry scalp with itchy white flakes or as an oily scalp with greasy flakes. Be mindful that scratching only makes it worse and can cause more severe flaking as the skin tries to renew itself even quicker.

FYI: Split ends occur when the proteins that protect the hair's cuticles at the ends are worn away. This happens with time and daily hair stress like thermal styling tools, poor maintenance and frequent or improper chemical services.

The only efficient way to get rid of split ends is to cut them off and start over again with proper hair care practices.
