Healthy Hair

Hair is often the first thing we notice when we meet someone. It is an
important expression of who we are. It also serves a valuable
biological purpose; keeping your head warm and helping to regulate
body temperature. But since environmental factors can effect our hair
over time, it is important to learn healthy ways to protect our
crowning glory.
Bad Hair Days
Exposure to the elements can wreak havoc on your hair. In the winter,
dryness occurs when the protective outer layer, known as the cuticles,
lifts and allows valuable moisture within the hair shaft to evaporate.
Sun exposure can also be harmful, damaging your hair’s natural
protective film, making it appear dry, dull and brittle. The sun’s
ultra violet light chemically breaks down and weakens the keratin
proteins, which are the building blocks of our hair.
Easy Hair Care
A healthy lifestyle means healthier hair. Drinking enough water and
getting frequent scalp massages are just some of the simple ways to
keep your hair silky and shiny. But the real secret comes from within,
as any nutritional deficiencies can lead to adverse effects on your
hair. Diet profoundly effects the health of not only internal systems
and organs, but external ones as well.
Formula 2 Multivitamin Complex is a great way to obtain the vitamins
and minerals needed for healthy hair. It contains over 20 essential
nutrients such as Zinc which builds hair protein and vitamins B and C
which support strong, supple strands of hair. It also includes Iron,
which prevents hair follicles from being starved of oxygen and
Beta-Carotene, an essential nutrient for hair growth. Herbalifeline®,
Tri-Shield®, and Core Complex all contain Omega-3 fatty acids
necessary for healthier, shinier looking hair. These essential fatty
acids help to condition and lubricate the hair.
Lastly, remember to nourish your hair with a healthy shampoo and
conditioner. Herbalife’s Herbal Aloe Shampoo can help to rehydrate
your hair and Herbal Aloe Conditioner protects your hair and manages
shine with the healing benefits of aloe. |
