Essential Oils for Hair Care
Have you ever noticed how few people over 50 have shiny, healthy hair hair you’d die for? There aren’t very many of them.
Though it may be part of the natural aging process to lose some of your crowning glory, it’s not a natural process for it to lose its gleam and glow. This lack of life is almost always due not to aging but to the unhealthy practices of overwashing, blow drying, and using chemical products such as sprays, perms and gels.
