What are the facts about hair?

FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT YOUR HAIR

Fact 1

Hair is 70% to 80% protein.

   Protein is one of the most critical elements found in hair. The breakdown of these natural elements can cause a loss of moisture, shine and flexibility. Therefore, it is necessary to replace any proteins lost because of normal hair stress.
Fact 2

Damage to hair occurs regularly.

   Loss of necessary poteins and moisture due to normal hair stress will detract from your hair's healthy appearance. Environmental elements (wind, sun, etc.), styling implements (curling iron, blow dryer, etc.) and chemical processing (relaxers, color, etc.) can unavoidably damage hair. You can minimize damage and hair loss with customized conditioning treatments.
Fact 3

An average person sheds between
60-80 strands of hair per day.

   Shedding hair is a natural occurrence. But, the amount shed from the average head should not be noticeable. Remember, the average amount of hair shed varies with the individual, so it is important to have a customized treatment regimen to keep hair loss at a minimum.
Fact 4

Hair grows an average of
1/2 inch per month.

   Hair growth is stimulated and nourished by the blood circulation underneath your scalp. The nourishment is derived from the foods you eat. So, even when you think your hair isn't growing, on average it grows 1 /2 inch per month. Therefore, every year you can expect at least six new inches of hair. At times it may seem as if your hair isn't growing at all. This is because as hair grows from the scalp, damaged, weakened ends break off -sometimes as much as two inches. That's why the most important part of maintaining healthy hair is having it trimmed regularly. Trimming as little as 1/8 of an inch per month can eliminate split or weakened ends that may potentially break the entire hair shaft.
