Hairspray (plus test)

Pump and aerosol hairsprays
Many people still believe that aerosol hairspray destroy ozone and are more damaging to the environment than pump hairspray.But aerosol hairsprays no longer use CFCs and have the same VOC limits as pump hairspray.
There is a real concern about breathing in any hairspray.You should be cautious and minimize your exposure when using any hairspray.For example you can wear a face mask 😷. Make sure you use water-soluble hairspray.
.
You can test the solubility of your favorite hairspray very easily.
Spray any clean,dry,glass surface with hairspray. Wait at least 24 hours and try to remove it from the glass.If the hairspray can’t be easily removed with warm, soapy water there is a danger it will build up in your lungs.

Silk Pillowcases

Sleeping on silk pillowcases will help keep that bed head under control.
.

The natural properties of silk, including its smooth surface, can help reduce friction on your hair which often causes damage, like spilt ends.
.

They don't suck out all of the natural moisture that your hair has and preven static from building up in your hair.

Hair Loss(4 vitamins and minerals)

Vitamins and minerals, such as Biotin (Vitamin B7), Selenium , Vitamin A and Zinc can cause hair loss when consumed in excess.
.

If you are regularly taking more vitamins and minerals than your daily allowance, they can all lead to hair loss by triggering a condition called Telogen Effluvium.
.

Recommended Dietary Allowance:
✅Biotin (Vitamin B7) – 35 mcg .
✅Selenium – 55 mcg .
✅Vitamin A – 700 mcg (2,300 IU) for women .
✅Zinc – 8 mcg

Antidandruff Shampoos

 
 
Dandruff can’t be cured, but it can be controlled.
.
Look for those ingredients:
-Pyrithione zinc (gentle enough to use every day, even for coloured hair)
-Ketoconazole -Selenium sulfide (can change your hair color, especially if you have blonde or grey hair)

Leave-in Conditioners

Leave-in conditioners can be in liquid sprays, lotions, and creams.
-For thick, coarse or curly hair use a creamy leave-in conditioner. 

-For fine hair use a lotion or spray leave-in.

Leave-in conditioners can be protein based, moisturize based or balanced depending on the ingredients it contains.

-When your hair feels too soft or weak you should use a protein leave in conditioner for strength. Also, use it after highlights and bleach.
 -When your hair feels rough or dry use a moisturizing conditioner. Also use it during the winter season, when your heater is on, but don’t forget to use a humidifier as well.
Almost all professional leave-in conditioners have pH between 4.5 and 5.5

Undercut

Undercut is an extremal type of a haircut with any part of your head cut very short(compare to the rest of your hair) or even shaven.
Undercut can be done on short, medium and even long hair.

 

pH of the hair

pH(potential hydrogen)

The pH scale is used from 0(acidic) to7(neutral) to14(alkaline).

Virgin Hair pH=3.67

Scalp pH=5.5

Water pH=7.0

Skin pH=5.5

Pediatric shampoos “no-tear” pH=7.0

Alkaline pH (any product applied on hair that has pH higher than 3.67) may increase the negative electrical charge of the hair fiber surface and increase friction between the fibers. This may lead to cuticle damage and fiber breakage. It is a reality and not a myth that lower pH of shampoos may cause less frizzing for generating less negative static electricity on the fiber surface.

This is one of the reasons why we use conditioners.  Conditioners have positively charged polymers (cations) that will quench those negative charges.  They deposit on the hair and at the same time they provide lubrication to the fibers among other things

After using a shampoo of pH higher than 5.5, conditioner of low-pH should be applied so that besides lubricating, the electrostatic forces can be neutralized, the frizz effect eliminated and cuticle scales may be sealed.
