Oct 18th was Menopause Awareness Day!
We need to talk about hair too!
As you age, not only does your hair start to lack body and volume because strands get skinner, but women also lose hair at a faster rate than it grows back, so we’re walking around with less hair overall, which only exacerbates the effect. To get thicker, fuller hair, you’ll need a shampoo that uses gentle, sulfate-free cleansers to remove buildup, debris, and dead cells from the scalp
without stripping the hair, leaving it bouncy and voluminous. Follow with a conditioner that infuses your strands with moisture to counteract the drying effects of aging without weighing
down the hair. Finally, reach for a styling product that props up the hair from root to tip.
The Solution: the trifecta of Better Not Younger products below:
