So a few months ago I noticed that I was losing clumps of hair not only when washing it but just throughout the day too. My hair started to feeling quite thin and fragile and looked so dull and damaged. I have quite a lot of hair although my actual stands of hair aren't that thick, I initially but the lose down to the fact that I do have quite a lot of hair therefore you'd think I probably would lose more and my diet had not been particularly good (you are what you eat and all that jazz!!)
I was shopping in Newcastle and was in Fenwicks, I passed the Aveda counter and thought I would ask for some advice. The lady I spoke with was extremely helpful and asked about my current hair care routine, styling habits etc; she then asked if she could take a picture of my scalp so she could get a better idea of what was going on, I obliged and I'm so thankful I did. I wish I had a copy of the image, my scalp was dry and flaky but this was covered by a layer of oil. The lady explained that this was the reason my hair was falling out and that the main culprit for this was probably the sulphates and chemicals that were in the hair products I had been using, she advised me on what products I could use to help with this and reduce the hair loss I had been experiencing. She recommended that I use the Invati range, thankfully I had some spare money and went ahead and purchased the range.
Now I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I'm an expert on this issue about Sulphates and what they can do but I definitely noticed a difference in my hair and in the appearance of my hair. My scalp feels a lot healthier and this reflects in how my hair looks.
The range of sulphate free hair care is improving and brands like L'oreal have these ranges available so although they are slightly more pricey they are however cheaper than Aveda; this is handy depending on what your budget is.
