1. RESET WITH SOLID SHAMPOOS

Yes, every new year starts with a good hair detox. Because the first step to healthy hair is a thorough cleansing with quality soaps containing sulfates that remove harmful substances from the hair and have an alkaline pH that opens the cuticle, making it receptive to subsequent treatments with plants.

To do this, you can start by using one of our 5 Solid Shampoos (Coconut, Grapefruit, Green Tea, Cocoa and Shea or Juniper, with a natural coconut-derived sulfate, very effective at removing dirt and toxins, and with a high pH to open the outer layer of the hair, making it permeable to act from the inside out.

2. INCORPORATE OILS INTO YOUR ROUTINE

Yes, we are in love with hair oils, we can't deny it. They are pleasurable for the senses, but they are also genuine regenerators of the cuticle and great allies in hair restoration. Therefore, one of the healthy goals for 2024 is to make a hair mask with oil once a week.

Hair oils are our essential vital elixir to achieve hydrated hair. Applied from the scalp to the tips, they prevent the natural water loss of the hair, reconstructing the hair fiber, eliminating frizz and providing definition. Hair oils prevent the degradation of keratin due to external aggressions, such as cold, heating, humidity, or synthetic products.

If your hair is suffering from significant frizz, dryness, and extreme fragility due to synthetic treatments, we recommend Grape Seed and Petit Grain Oil with a smaller lipid molecule, ideal for fine and severely damaged hair.

3. RECONCILE WITH YOUR NATURAL HAIR

We know how difficult it is to accept the natural state of our hair; sometimes it's curly, and we want it straight, or vice versa. This leads us to excessive use of heat tools like flat irons or straightening treatments like keratin.

Our best advice, love yourself as you are. Yes, we know you're thinking, "I find it hard to give up my straightener or hairdryer."... Okay! Start by spacing out its use and lowering its temperature, but also try to love your hair as it is: eliminate synthetic cosmetics and choose plant-based coloring. The healthier your hair, the better it will react to external factors, including irons and dryers that you may want to use occasionally.

4. USE SILK PILLOWCASES FOR SLEEP

Treat yourself to a bamboo silk pillowcase, a great healthy gift for your hair.

Do you know the benefits of using bamboo silk pillowcases on your cushions? Sleeping with a pillow covered in this soft fabric prevents hair fiber breakage overnight and prevents skin and hair dehydration.

Incredible, isn't it? Its material has anti-aging and anti-frizz properties that preserve the hair's natural oils; they are soft, antibacterial, hypoallergenic, and breathable.

Bamboo silk pillowcases are recommended for all hair types, especially for curly and those that are very damaged or prone to breakage or dryness. We don't know why it took us so long to discover them, but it's never too late, and 2024 is a good time to start using them.

5. ONCE-A-MONTH SELF-CARE RITUAL

Grab your calendar and mark a day each month for yourself. No excuses. It's time dedicated to you, and that is non-negotiable.

We suggest a plan for yourself, once a month, we can carry out our self-care ritual, a moment for us, to pamper ourselves and provide all the necessary nutrients to our hair for radiant locks.

If your choice is to add color, select your specific formula from our range of plant-based dyes, formulas 100% made with plants, with pigments that adhere or deposit on the cuticle, the outer part of the hair, respecting the hair fibers.

Afterward, grab a book, play some music, and light a candle. An hour of application, and you will regain the shine, strength, and magic of your hair. A real pleasure!
