Natural keys to Unlock your problem of Frizzy Hairs

Frizzy Hairs are the hair strands that stand out or curl in different directions causing lumpy and messy hair. It is mainly because of 4 factors as given below:

1. Genetic- A person with naturally dry hair has frizzy formation due to loss of moisture from the hair causes frizz.
2. Environmental- Excess moisture is a well-documented cause of frizz. But both the above evidence is contrary, which shows that the individualized understanding of the problem is very critical followed by individualized holistic solutions.

1. Hair therapy Induced- research evidence highlights that common treatment of  frizzy hair itself is a cause of frizzy hairs, which seems like a vicious cycle, Sulphate  containing shampoos, alcohols containing products all of which are damaging to the outer protective layers of hair.
2. Diameter – larger the diameter of hair more the frizz due to the greater area for cuticle damage and ionic exchange.

Frizzy hair occurs due to damage to the outer layers of the hair, which impairs the ability for moisture fixation within the hair. It has been suggested that long, frizzy hairs could be a warning sign for Alopecia. In some instances, the hairs are incapable of retaining moisture, whereas in other cases, damaged membranes lead to the excessive retention of water molecules. 

Long-term risks- According to a published study Frizzy hairs could be a warning sign for Alopecia.

One may wonder why we have so many young girls suffering from hormonal disturbances and increased Cancer in women. Just imagine how the biology of an Avg, Indian Woman is tolerating 10-12 Cosmetic products on her skin every day, which includes 300 harsh chemicals/ day.

Such usage leads to an accumulation of 0.6Kg Harsh in our body/per year and almost 7Kg harsh chemicals are discharged into the Environment leading to Water Pollution. “Save the world inside the body and outside it”. Why Toxics??? Go Naturals!
