Use a specialized hair care regimen to care for the hair and scalp

Avoid rubbing hair dry as this could damage the hair fibers

A wide toothed comb is much friendlier for the hair and decreases damage

How often should I wash my hair? This would depend on how oily

your scalp or hair looks; the

oilier the hair the higher the

washing frequency.

Don’t skip the hair dryer! Thin hair takes less time to dry so

heat exposure is minimal but

essential for optimizing thicker,

fuller-looking locks. Spritz on a

heat protectant before applying

products and using the hair dryer.

Consider color techniques Create depth by customizing hair

with lighter and darker areas.

Creating dimensions creates

volume which makes hair appear

more rich and vibrant.

DERMASebum, oxidative damage

and irritation are just some of

the causes of an unhealthy

scalp environment.

DENSITY An unhealthy scalp environment

can lead to breakage and fewer

hair strands.

DIAMETER Thinner hair strands ultimately

means thinner-looking hair.
