LET'S CHAT HAIR GROWTH

Getting right down to it, here are 5 tips to achieving healthy, strong, and effective healthy hair growth!

NUMBER 1: FREQUENT BRUSHING

It turns out, your hair loves the natural oil produced on your scalp! Your scalp produces natural oils to keep the hair nourished and shiny. Combing and hair brushing help distribute the natural oils across the strands, strengthening them. If you do not brush your hair, the oil accumulates on the scalp, leaving the strands dry and brittle.

NUMBER 2: SCALP MASSAGING

Can massaging your scalp really lead to hair thickness? The answer is yes! Scalp massage, in addition to having a relaxing effect, results in increased blood flow and skin softening.

According to a study published on The National Library of Medicine, hair thickness was shown to increase with standardized scalp massage. Scientists in this study contributed increase in hair thickness to 2 possible factors:

1. Improvement in blood flow;

2. Direct stimulation of mechanical force (via scalp massager) to dermal papilla cells (aka cells really important for hair formation, growth, and cycling!) (Koyama, 2019).

Go grab your scalp massager now! After reading reviews, this one by HEETA on Amazon was noted to be one of the best. Soft bristles and it fits easily in your palm so that it’s simple to hold and maneuver, while the waterproof design means you can store it on a shelf or a hanging basket directly in the shower for easy access each time you wash.

NUMBER 3: SCALP OIL + GROWTH SERUM

I'll say it over and over - scalp health is KEY! Healthy hair grows from the scalp - if your follicles small, damaged and suffocated, you won't be loving on your new hair growth. Here are my two, non-negotiable weekly and daily scalp treatments that I swear by for growth + health:

1. Rejuveniqe Hair Oil: A light, non-greasy combination of 13+ unique ingredients that mimic the body’s natural oils, allowing for deeper and more effective nourishment. It includes antioxidants, beta-carotene and omega-3 fatty acids. Think liquid vitamins for your hair.

2. Intense Repair Clinical Thickening Serum: Developed in collaboration with a world-renowned expert in hair and scalp science, this lightweight, non-greasy serum is proven to help boost hair growth, immediately reduce breakage, and has shown noticeable results of thicker, fuller-looking hair in 60 days. Pair this with the shampoo and conditioner for best results.

NUMBER 4: DITCH TIES FOR CLIPS

Pulling your hair back with a hair tie too tight causes damage to the hair follicles. Too tight of a ponytail with a traditional elastic cuts into the hair shaft causing fraying. Even worse, hair being pulled back much tighter results loss of hair from the root. Switch to soft, loose scrunchies - or, better yet, use a hair clip!

NUMBER 5: REDUCE HEAT AND MEND SPLIT ENDS

**Exposure to high heat changes the shape of your hair's keratin strands. Temperatures over 300°F eventually leads to weaker hair that has lost its elasticity and become more prone to damage.

&&

**Split ends happen when the ends of your hair become dry, brittle, and frayed. They may resemble the end of an unraveled rope -- thinner, dry, and broken. If you're looking for the same thickness from root to ends, here is my must have product:

• Damage Repair Bond Fortifying Hair Leave-In Crème: A richly textured leave-in crème that reduces breakage by 88%, has a heat protectant, and a split end mender - all. in. one. POWERHOUSE.
