Hair Care:- Hair Structure:- Hair is mostly made up of keratin, which is also found in the skin and nails. Each strand of hair is comprised of three distinct layers: Cuticle – the outermost protective layer of the hair shaft. Cortex – mainly composed of keratin, this layer gives the hair its strength, color, shape, elasticity, and texture. Medulla – the innermost or core layer is usually only present in coarse hair, and absent in fine strands.

Hair Growth Cycle:- Hair follicles grow in repetitive cycles, which include three phases: Anagen - growth phase, which typically continues for 150 weeks on the scalp. Catagen - transitional phase, during which time, the bulbar portion of the follicle is almost completely degraded through apoptosis. Catagen lasts for 1 week. Telogen - resting phase, lasts for 12 weeks on the scalp. Approximately 50-100 telogen hairs are shed daily, mostly because of normal washing and combing. II. Shampooing:- a) Shampooing regularly is the first step in maintaining healthy hair and scalp. b) Sebum lubricates and protects hair, but particles of dirt become embedded in the oil. c) Shampooing too frequently can cause extensive sebum removal, which results in dull looking, static-prone hair that is difficult to comb. d) Added ingredients such as vitamins B and E, jojoba and aloe vera claim to strengthen hair, but there is no scientific validation.III. Conditioning:- a) Conditioners efficiently restore moisture that has been removed through washing.

b) They contain many of the same ingredients that are found in shampoos, but in different concentrations. c) They effectively flatten the cuticle on the hair shaft and detangle the hair. d) They are particularly useful for dry or damaged hair. e) Overuse of conditioners can result in a flattened, limp or oily appearance. f) Apply only to the hair and not the scalp.IV. Treating Dandruff:- a) Dandruff is influenced by the presence of 3 factors: sebum, Malassezia yeasts, and one’s individual susceptibility to irritation caused by the yeasts metabolic byproducts (free fatty acids). b) Using a regular conditioner can reduce the dandruff shampoo’s efficacy. c) For conditioners containing anti-dandruff active ingredients, massage product into the scalp, then distribute evenly from hair root to tip. d) Avoid scratching the scalp, as this will loosen more flakes and cause further irritation.

V. Tips:- a) Healthy hair is reflective of healthy life style habits and overall good health. Eat a well-balanced diet, drink plenty of water, exercise regularly, and get sufficient rest/sleep. Medications and health conditions can and do influence hair condition. b) Hair changes as the body changes. Hair growth, hair loss, and replacement are natural, normal processes throughout the life cycle. As the body ages, growth and replacement are slowed, which may give individuals the impression they are balding. c) Keep hair clean and shiny! Shampoos do matter, as some are harsher than others; select them carefully. d) Dandruff shampoos can strip hair color. If using a color, select a non-alkaline shampoo. Rinse hair in lukewarm water. Hot water speeds color fading. e) Hair style is more critical than hair color! Keep yourself and your hair style up-to-date. Re-evaluate your hair cut and style periodically; what looked good at age 20 may not at age 40 or 60. f) Hair color should always look natural. The golden rule in hair coloring is not to go too light or too dark. Cover gray with a shade slightly lighter than your natural color. Bleaches chemically alter each hair strand, but do not injure the root.
