Snipping off the ends for new beginings


As a girl who is trying desperately to grow out her hair, it is a little heartbreaking to realise its time for a chop. My hair was looking a little worse for wear, as I have been neglecting it lately due to lack of time, stress and other pressures. My normal routine consists of at least 2 oil masques a week, left in overnight, and those days being the only days I wash my hair. But recently my routine has been; wash my hair whenever convenient and who cares how many days are in between....great routine right?

My hair has been feeling very dry and brittle lately, with a lot more fallout then I'm necessarily used to and baby flyaways that were never their before. So I decided last friday I would whip into the hairdressers for 30mins and get a trim.

My hairdressers, who knows me reasonably well, was horrified at the state my hair was on, normally soft, non-frizzy and easily managed, it was tangling, frizzy and just not manageable. After chatting with her for a few minutes I knew more than the 1/4 inch I was hoping for was going to have to come off, and a wash and a snip later, My hair is now about an inch and a half shorter than pre-hairdresser but feeling a lot better. My hairdressers also mentioned that my lifestyle factors such as lack of sleep and stress (oh the woes of shift work) could be contributing to my hair misfortunes and she warned that I needed to start taking better care of my body and my hair.

My hair is now feeling a lot better, although quite a bit shorter, and I have since done a oil treatment and reverted back to my old faithful mukti shampoo and conditioners, which are a lifesaver for my hair, available here. Hopefully now my hair can grow healthy and strong.
