No matter the texture or color, anyone’s hair can catch a case of “the dulls”. Without the right care, your hair can go from brilliant to blah quicker than you think. Here are some common signs to look out for that indicate your hair has lost some of its radiance. Also, some tips on what you can do to revive it, and ways to avoid a mundane mane in the future.
How do you know if your hair is dull?
Lack of Movement.
Healthy hair generally has mobility and flexibility. So if your hair seems stiff in areas where it would normally swish or bounce, then that means it’s lost some of its vitality.
Tangles Easily
When the surface of your strands are rough, they can grab onto each other more. This is what causes tangling, and can indicate that your hair has gotten a bit shabby.
Flyaways
We all get that occasional wild strand that cannot be tamed. But if you’ve got a whole flock of fly aways, then there’s a problem. Your strands have lost some of their structure and are now blowing like leaves in the wind!
Lack of Shine
A classic sign of dull hair, which hints to us that the scales on the shaft of your hairs are not smooth. This makes your hair look lifeless, and like it has no dimension.
What Causes Dull Hair?
There are a few things that bring on lackluster locks:
- Sun exposure
- Heat styling
- Chemicals (like chlorine or hair dye)
- Hard water
- Using the wrong products for your hair type/needs
- Lack of proper nutrition
What are the steps you can take to fix dull hair?
There are a few ways to rescue your hair. Nourishing and hydrating your current hair is important, but also taking measures to prevent future dullness is key.
Our skin is the largest organ of our body and our scalp is made of skin that helps grow and maintain hair. To help breathe new life into lackluster locks, potent topical solutions like our all-new HAIRtamin Scalp Serum along with our biotin & botanicals-infused shampoo and conditioner are key. Together, they work to gently cleans, nourish and improve dry, itchy scalp and hair to encourage healthy growth and improved elasticity, shine and strength. Our Scalp Serum in particular is formulated with a patented natural growth complex that helps improve scalp micro circulation to deliver oxygen & nutrients to the scalp & hair for optimal growth.
But how do we avoid repeating this bleak situation in the future? For this, we have to look within by giving our body the nutrients it needs to grow stronger, more brilliant, bouncy hair to begin with & that starts within. The truth is, most of us aren't getting enough or the right nutrients our body needs and that's where supplementation becomes key. But not all supplements are created equal & thanks to lack of regulation in the supplement industry, many brands fall short of their promise. Our best-selling HAIRtamin Advanced Formula and Gummy Stars on the other hand are thoughtfully formulated with up to 22 clean, clinically-studied, bioavailable ingredients that actually get used and absorbed by the body to help hair follicles grow hair faster and build each strand stronger. This makes your hair better able to stand up to the dullness-creating elements, and maintain its structure and shine. Think of it as investing in your future hair’s vitality from the inside out.
On average, how long does this take to turn around?
While topical products can show faster improvements in our current hair, ultimately growing out newer, healthier hair will take a little longer. With a supplement regimen, significant improvements in hair shine, strength and healthier growth can be seen in 3 to 6 months with regular use, although many report seeing improver results even sooner than that.
