Everyone wants healthier, thicker, and stronger hair. Fortunately, we are lucky to be living during a time when we are focusing more on our health, and breakthroughs in science are leading to amazing beauty products that deliver on their promises of voluminous, shiny tresses.

SCALP MASSAGE

A healthy scalp is essential for hair growth. One way to stimulate the scalp is with a scalp massage that brings nutrient-rich blood flow to your hair follicles and redistributes excess oil from your scalp unclogging follicles and moisturizing hair. 

Begin the massage by placing fingertips along the top-center of your scalp and gently move in small circular motions using the pads of your fingers. Slowly work your way down to the nape of your neck. Finish by placing your fingertips on your temples and massaging along the front hairline.

DE-STRESS

Whether sudden or chronic, stress can take a toll on your health and hair growth. Try meditating for at least 5 minutes a day with your eyes closed and observe wandering thoughts as they drift through the mind. Do not judge the thoughts, simply be aware of each mental note as it arises. Breathe in slowly and exhale slowly throughout the meditation process. 

HAIRCARE PRODUCTS 

Haircare has long evolved from basic shampoo and conditioner. We have more haircare choices today than ever before, which sometimes can make finding even a simple thickening shampoo overwhelming. Where do you begin and what should you look for in order to find safe and healthy products for your hair?

Well, just as the right skincare products can give you a glowing complexion, the right hair care products can give you a lustrous, healthy head of hair. DERMA-E Thickening Shampoo and Thickening Conditioner are two invigorating hair care products that help you achieve the look of thicker and fuller locks with its therapeutic mint and herbal blend. The unique blend of naturally-derived proteins, vitamins, and oils pack a punch to create a thickening formula that is out of this world. I can actually feel the essential oils nourish and calm my scalp almost instantly!

Two other products to try if you are suffering from dry scalp and desire thicker, fuller hair is to alternate DERMA-E Thickening Shampoo and Thickening Conditioner with DERMA-E Scalp Relief Shampoo and Scalp Relief Conditioner as needed.

NUTRITIOUS DIET

A diet that contains healthy fats, protein, and a range of vitamins is essential for the body to build strong, healthy hair. A person should look to add 1-2 servings of healthy fats and protein per day to their diet can see improvement in their hair. Try nutrient-rich eggs, salmon, walnuts, Greek yogurt, and beans (pinto, black, green) that are abundant in healthy fats and protein. 

BE KIND TO YOUR HAIR

Too much of a good thing can actually harm your hair. Overwashing your hair can strip the natural oils and make your scalp dry, which can cause your skin to produce more oil. Blow-drying, flat-ironing, and curling can also cause the outer layer of hair to lift up, releasing valuable moisture and leaving strands brittle, dry, and damaged. And, if your color your hair, re-apply dye to just the roots to minimize chemical exposure on the remainder of your hair.

Remember, your hair only grows about half an inch a month, so be patient. 😊
