As we age our hair seems to become a little more thin and
wiry because the hair gets thinner in its diameter and at the same time the
cuticle of the hair starts wrapping around itself. Adding to this, hair also
gradually loses its melanin and this is the start of the greying process. Some
people get full flair silver hair while others get a mixture of salt and
pepper.
Whatever your genes dictate, you can either embrace it or
colour it. But finding the right tools to care for your hair is key to
protecting it and slowing the ageing process.
Drying:
When drying your hair you need gentle and variable settings
like on the Philips Pro Care hairdryer that has ‘thermo protect’ as a feature.
It allows the user to reduce the heat without losing the drying power, giving
more style with less damage. Like your skin, your hair needs added moisture as
you mature and this feature will help you preserve the moisture in your hair
better.
If you want to change your look, then take a peek at old
photographs. If you still have the same hairstyle and colour as you had five
years ago, it’s probably a good time to try something new and experience a
totally refreshed you.
Colour:
Trying a new hair colour is one of the best ways to change
up your look. Keep in mind however that colouring should be done with care as
you could experience some hair loss in the process. Ageing hair already faces a
hair fall challenge greatly due to hormonal factors. The first sign of hair
loss that most women notice is often widening of their part or their once full
ponytail is much smaller. The sooner you seek care, the better the chances of
successfully treating it.
You may also find that colouring is a little harder than it
was when you were younger. Hair is more resistant to colouring when it greys,
but fear not - you can certainly find a colourist that understands resistant
hair to help.
When you colour your hair, add a few highlights around the face
and in the partings, as this brings added luminosity to the face. Colour is
also great at hiding that first telltale sign of regrowth! Colouring your hair
2 to 3 levels lighter, goes a long way in making you look younger and
refreshed. As you mature, so does the tone of the skin so you need to adjust
the colour of your hair accordingly.
If you are tired of colouring your hair try a great pixie
cut and wear your natural hair colour, Judy Dench did it!
Cutting:
Keep your hair looking youthful by trimming it regularly, as
dull split ends make hair look dry and drab. Perhaps even add on some layers to
add bounce to the hair. Movement in the hair will give it a refreshing,
youthful appearance.
Remember, healthy hair is the best hair!
