Long hair

Features

Long Long hair has a length that extends over the shoulders. As this means that the hair is constantly in direct contact with textiles, the physical stress on the hair is above average. As a result, the hair is destructured or, in other words, damaged by the physical impact much faster than with other hair lengths.
Of all hair lengths, split ends occur most frequently in long hair.

Recommendation

Short hair

Features

Short hair is defined as hair length shorter than 10 cm.

Short hairstyles are usually much more elaborate in styling than long hair. As a result, there is also more risk that short hair is stressed by styling products and damaged by elaborate blow-drying in combination with styling. This is especially true if it is also colored or blonded.

Recommendation

Damaged hair

Features

In damaged hair, either the cuticle is worn away (more or less depending on the degree of damage) or the fiber stem is damaged (especially with regard to its cross-links). As a result, the hair loses shine and plasticity and - it becomes much more difficult to style. If no action is taken here, irreversible structural damage occurs and the hair must be cut off, as it no longer meets aesthetic requirements.

Recommendation

Frizzy hair

Features

Frizz is hair that does not align with the surrounding hair, but straightens or curls on its own. This creates a fuzzy or irregular texture.

The three main causes of frizz are genetic factors, hair damage and moisture absorption of the hair from the environment (especially in curly hair). The impression of a "straw head" is quickly created.

Recommendation

Oily hair

Features

Oily hair has an above-average acid mantle. The cell membrane complex of the hair is significantly more oily than in the norm. This causes the hair to be naturally "over-groomed".

The result is weighed down, overly shiny and sticky hair, which often lies flat against the head and cannot be styled. Special care is required to reduce the over-processing properties without drying out the hair.

Recommendation

Fine hair

Features

An average human hair is about 0.05 to 0.08 mm thick. Fine or thin hair is already spoken of when there is a diameter of 0.03 to 0.07 mm.

Typical, Central European hair is consequently fine-normal in terms of its thickness.

In fine hair, the cuticle has a significantly higher proportion of the mass between the cuticle and the fiber stem than in normal or even thick hair. In fine hair, this structural proportion of the cuticle is decisive for the properties of the hair.

Recommendation

Thick hair

Features

Thick hair has a diameter greater than 0.09 mm. Characteristic here is excessive hair volume, which quickly leads to an uncontrollable and above all non-reproducible hairstyle appearance. This is due to the above-average plasticity of the hair, which is difficult to control with simple styling strokes, especially after sleeping, for example. As a result, the hair must be conditioned towards a "softer" plasticity.

Recommendation

Colored hair

Features

Coloration, this term also includes hair coloring and intensive hair tinting, changes the hair color in manifold ways beyond the natural color shades. It is estimated that about 50% of adult women worldwide use hair colorants. Fashion trends as well as cultural groups shape the personalization here.

Recommendation

Blond hair

Features

Bleaching changes the natural hair color by bleaching it. It is estimated that around 20% of adult women worldwide bleach their hair. Fashion trends are shaping this personalization, which is often combined with hair colouring (glossing).
Balayage techniques are particularly popular, which are performed professionally in salons and are expensive.

To make this personalization sustainable, it is often a quality requirement to maintain the hair color as long as possible and to stabilize it against environmental influences - especially those resulting from hair washing. For this, hair care is a very decisive factor.
