A lady once emailed aninquiry to the Natures Gentle Touch Hair Institute asking to know why she had a history of bad hair experience. She complained that what is working for others can't seem to work for her. From Relaxers to maintenance and treatment products, anyone she uses comes out different on her irrespective of how much she adheres to the information on the instruction leaflets. When she retouches, it's either her hair does not relax or if it's relaxed, she will have a burnt scalp. When we invited her over to diagnose her problem, we realized that her search for a beautiful hair has led her to over-processing her hair leaving it dull and lifeless, and this has made her resort to wearing hair extensions most of the time thereby becoming more vulnerable to different hair and scalp problems such as dandruff, alopecia and breakage. Her major problem was her lack of information on her hair status, thereby causing her to use products that might seem good for others but are not clinically suited for her.
Like common medical cases, hair and scalp problems have to be firstly diagnosed to find the cause or identify the problem before treatments are administered or solutions deployed. At the same time, knowing your status upfront - more like knowing your medical record - makes it easier to live and maintain a healthy hair by simply taking the right steps or applying the right ingredients that is suitable for your hair.
In analyzing your hair for treatment, the procedure will include knowing your hair history or the different kinds of chemical services that you have been undergoing, your hair care regimen and your medical history amongst others so as to be able to determine the problems and recommend treatment
There are no side effects to hair analysis, and it is recommended that every individual should have this information alongside their medical records irrespective of whether they have a history of bad hair experience or not so as to enable them live and maintain a healthy hair.
You can have your hair analyzed for free at the Natures Gentle Touch Hair Institute at Plot 209 Muri Okunola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria, or you can email your inquiry to info@naturesgentletouchinstitute.com.
