It can be worrying to think about it, we know… but as you get older, your hair can quickly become lifeless and brittle. But it doesn’t need to be that way! There are several simple ways that you can help protect and nourish your hair while you’re aging, helping to keep it vibrant, even after 60.
“Hair is an important aspect of our appearance”
It is natural and is determined at the time of birth. It generates from the number of roots in the scalp. Each hair grows up to a certain length and then stops naturally. It even sheds down at some point. New hair shaft replaces the lost hair and they need to be taken care of.
Hair is a key part in our personal presentation, and excessive use of bleaches, tints, poor nutrition or violent exposure to the sun can cause a loss of their luster and the appearance of double Spikes, which will make your hair look dry, fragile and ill-treated.
So here are some basic tips you should know to maintain your hair healthily
Heat protector
Using heat protector on your hair is the least you should be doing to promote hair health in later years. Anyone who has used heat to style their hair in the past knows how damaging heat can be to hair. Straighteners, curlers, even blow dryers can damage our hair if we don’t protect it first.
The most common form of a heat protection is heat protection spray, balm or cream. Your stylist will apply heat protection spray to your hair before any high levels of heat encounter it. By doing this, they are adding an extra layer of protection to your hair.

Hair Masks
Hair masks can help add moisture back into dry or damaged hair. This makes them a great product to use often to assist your hair while it’s trying to combat the day-to-day stress that it’s put under. To benefit from hair masks, it’s recommended that you use them once a week; alongside other protection treatments and your usual hair care routine.
Which hair mask you should use depends on your hair type. Consider the type of hair you have, the colour, the thickness, and what type of damage you’re trying to help it recover from. For dull hair, you’ll be trying to add shine, damaged hair needs nourishing, and dry hair needs to be hydrated.
It’s always best to go to a salon for professional advice, the most up-to-date products, and to see how a hair mask is properly applied for the best kind of effectiveness.
Balanced Diet
It is highly recommended that a daily diet should be balanced with the adequate amount of carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, proteins and minerals to maintain healthy hair and do not forget to drink lots of water.
Natural Hair Care
Brushing your hair regularly to stimulate the scalp will keep it looking healthy and lustrous. A warm oil scalp massage two times a week will help stimulate and moisturise the scalp. Healthy hair is a blessing, so try to treat your hair in the right way for lustrous and healthy looking hair.

Lastly, there’s OLAPLEX™. Olaplex is the newest hair technology that can be used to repair damaged, brittle, dry or colour-treated hair. It’s more than a conditioning treatment, it’s a product that can permanently heal your hair from chemical damage.
