Who doesn't want a full mane of strong, shiny and healthy hair? While we can't change our genetics, there's a lot we can do to support hair growth and maintenance.
Hair care for healthy growth
It is completely normal to lose around 60 to 100 hairs every day when combing your hair. However, anything beyond this can indicate unhealthy hair loss. It becomes clear how important healthy hair roots are. Growth can be promoted when you wash your hair by gently washing all your hair with special care products. This not only prevents tangles and hair breakage, but also hair loss. The active shampoo Shampooing Bio-Fanelan stimulates the metabolism of the scalp and gives the hair volume. The hair-active lipoamino acids improve the hair structure and strengthen the hair. Hair should always be washed with lukewarm water and massaged gently. Finally, the scalp can be rinsed with cold water to stimulate blood circulation and smooth the scales on the surface of the hair.
The hair cycle from growth to loss typically takes 4 to 6 years. To support hair lifespan and stability, it is best to use stimulating ingredients. After washing, the Elixir Anti-Chute Pulse, which contains, among other things, larch wood extract, can be massaged onto the scalp. It also has an anti-aging effect. The Luxury Spa Oil care oil protects the hair from damage, revitalizes it and repairs porous hair and ends.
According to statistics, hair grows about 0.3 to 0.5 mm per day, which corresponds to a length of about 15 cm per year. If hair grows slower or if it doesn't grow fast enough, Intensive Activating Lotion is a good choice. It stimulates cell division in the hair roots by 98 percent and accelerates hair growth by up to 32 percent. The lotion is simply applied to the scalp and can be used several times a week.
Should you avoid cutting your hair?
On the contrary! The hair should be cut by the hairdresser every six to eight weeks, especially if you let it grow long. Freshly cut ends not only look nicer, but also prevent split ends from forming. The Intensive Spa Mask hair mask with yacón root extract gives the hair strength and vitality. Inca nut oil repairs damaged hair and strengthens the hair structure and hair roots. The hyaluronic acid it contains binds moisture.
More tips for long and healthy hair
A head massage not only stimulates blood circulation in the scalp, but also promotes the penetration of care substances into the hair roots. The Visarôme Dynamique R aroma oil is ideal for this as the essential oils stimulate hair growth and hair quality. Thyme, rosemary, geranium, sage and lavender relax the scalp and naturally stimulate metabolism. It is enough to apply a few drops directly to the scalp, after washing or in between.
To avoid hair breakage, you should be careful not to put too much strain on your hair when styling. Avoid hair ties with metal clasps as they can cause hair to break easily. The excessive heat from hairdryers, curling irons and straighteners is also harmful. Heat protection is absolutely necessary if the hair cannot be air dried. The Heat Protector locks moisture in the hair and protects it from heat damage and drying out.
A healthy diet helps the body deliver sufficient nutrients to the hair roots. Proteins from legumes are ideal for this, as are nuts, brown rice and millet, which are rich in selenium. Minerals such as zinc also stimulate hair follicles, while iron supports hair growth. B vitamins activate the metabolism in the hair roots and biotin prevents inflammation of the hair roots. The Bio-Fanelan Synergy capsules contain a complex of vitamins, minerals and trace elements that actively promote hair growth.
