General Advice For Skin Health

- SPF: Use products containing SPF30-50 daily to protect your skin from sun damage.
- Lifestyle Choices: A healthy lifestyle, including adequate water intake, a balanced diet, limited alcohol consumption, and avoiding smoking, significantly impacts skin health.
General Advice For Scalp and Hair Health
Maintaining the vitality of your scalp and hair requires more than just choosing the right products; it involves adopting healthy practices and making informed lifestyle choices. Here are some tips to ensure your hair and scalp remain healthy and strong:
- Gentle Hair Care: Use a sulphate-free shampoo and a conditioner suited for your hair type, focusing conditioner on the ends of your hair to avoid scalp build-up.
- Regular Scalp Massages: Stimulate blood flow to the scalp with gentle massages using your fingertips; this encourages hair growth and distributes natural oils evenly.
- Balanced Diet: Incorporate foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins that support hair health, such as omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, zinc in nuts, and vitamin E in avocados.
- Hydration: Drinking plenty of water not only benefits your body but also aids in keeping your scalp hydrated and your hair lustrous.
- Limit Heat Styling: Reduce the use of hair dryers, straighteners, and curling irons. When using, apply a heat protectant to minimize damage.
- Regular Trims: Trimming your hair every 6-8 weeks helps prevent split ends and promotes healthier hair growth.
- Avoid Tight Hairstyles: Hairstyles that pull tightly on the roots can lead to hair loss over time. opt for looser styles to reduce stress on your hair follicles.
- Protect Your Hair: Before swimming in chlorinated pools, wet your hair with clean water and apply a leave-in conditioner to fend off chemical damage. We suggest undergoing seasonal deep detox treatments, which we offer at Ardor.
- Mind Your Pillowcase: Switching to a silk or satin pillowcase reduces hair breakage caused by friction with traditional cotton pillowcases.
Adopting these practices will not only improve the health of your hair and scalp but also enhance your overall wellbeing.
