In recognition of menopause awareness month, we wanted to take a moment to highlight how this hormonal change can impact our hair, as well as introducing a solution to bring back hair confidence.
The peri-menopause and menopause can have major implications on how our hair looks and feels. This can include physical changes, such as hair loss and thinning, as well as emotional repercussions, such as lower self-esteem. To tackle these concerns, we must get to the root of the issue, which is exactly what our laboratory proven Give Me Strength Strengthening range does. Discover how these dermatologically tested hair and scalp solutions combat the most common side-effects of the menopause, so that you can fall back in love with your locks.
LACK OF VOLUME
Side-effect: Hair looks lacklustre and appears less thick and full
Solution: Improve and increase hair density with protein rich haircare. Our Give Me Strength Strengthening range features wheat proteins, amino acids and keratin. These expert ingredients work to rebuild the surface of weak hair strands, so that they each appear thicker and hair looks and feels fuller.
WORSE CONDITION
Side-effect: The quality and texture of the hair strands deteriorate
Solution: Use moisturising ingredients that penetrate the hair cuticle, so that strands are smoothed and hydrated. Try an intensive hair treatment for deep conditioning. Our Give Me Strength Strengthening Hair Mask includes nourishing coconut, grapeseed and melon seed oils, which infuse moisture into the hair. This reduces brittleness, improving hair quality, increasing elasticity, and giving a smooth, shiny, soft result.
HAIR LOSS AND SLOW GROWTH
Side-effect: Hair growth is inhibited, impacting length and fullness. Hair also sheds more rapidly, causing thinning.
Solution: Full, healthy hair starts at the scalp. Be sure to stimulate blood flow at the scalp through massage, as well as incorporating a scalp treatment into your regime to strengthen the hair’s foundation. Each Give Me Strength product includes a high percentage of active, Sweet White Lupine. This hero ingredient increases circulation around the hair follicle, facilitating the supply of oxygen and nutrients required for hair development. This encourages new healthy hair growth. Sweet White Lupine also inhibits the hormone responsible for androgenetic alopecia, helping to reduce hair loss. The Give Me Strength Strengthening Scalp Concentrate is a great place to start. With the highest amount of active ingredient, this treatment tackles menopausal hair thinning head on!
