Understanding The Needs Of Your Hair

Understanding The Needs Of Your Hair

It’s vital to be able to identify your specific hair needs accurately. Understanding whether the hair requires moisturising or structural repair is crucial for providing effective and tailored solutions. By recognising the enemy, you’ll be better equipped to achieve the desired hair goals.

Identifying the Need for Moisturising

  • Dryness and Brittle Texture: Dry and brittle hair is a clear indication that moisture is lacking. When hair lacks moisture, it becomes more prone to breakage and split ends. Look for dullness, frizz, and an overall lack of luster, as these are common signs of dehydrated hair.
  • Itchy or Flaky Scalp: An itchy or flaky scalp often indicates dryness. Dry scalp can lead to discomfort and dandruff. Educate your clients about the importance of maintaining a healthy scalp to promote overall hair health.
  • Tangles and Lack of Manageability: Moisture-deficient hair tends to tangle easily and becomes difficult to manage. If your clients frequently struggle with combing or styling their hair due to tangles, it’s a sign that moisture is needed to restore its elasticity and smoothness. 

Here's What You Need To Try


Pro tip: When using moisturising products, try incorporating hydrating shampoos, conditioners, and treatments into your regular hair care routine. Try using products that contain nourishing ingredients like argan oil, shea butter, or aloe vera to restore moisture balance effectively.
You need to build moisture into the hair over time. Regular shampooing and conditioning supported by a weekly deep conditioner for damaged, dry hair is the most effective way of tackling the damage.
Hair needs regular moisture to smooth and strengthen the cuticle.



Identifying the Need for Structural Repair

  • Split Ends and Frayed Hair: Split ends are a clear indication of hair that requires structural repair. Look for frayed ends that appear rough and uneven. Regular use of heat styling tools, chemical treatments, or exposure to environmental damage can weaken the hair’s structure over time.
  • Breakage and Weakness: Hair that breaks easily and lacks strength often needs structural repair. If you have excessive hair fall or find strands of hair left behind on brushes or pillows, it’s crucial to address these concerns promptly.
  • Lack of Elasticity: Healthy hair should have some level of elasticity, allowing it to stretch without breaking. If your hair lacks this bounce-back quality and feels brittle and rigid, it’s a sign that structural repair is required to restore its strength and flexibility.

Pro tip: To address structural repair needs, we recommend products that focus on strengthening and fortifying the hair. Look for shampoos, conditioners, and treatments enriched with ingredients such as keratin, biotin, or protein.
These ingredients can help rebuild the hair’s structure, reduce breakage, and promote healthier, more resilient strands. Additionally, you can try using of wide-toothed comb to minimise hair breakage.
