Ultraviolet rays affect the hair fiber in three ways. In the surface layer oxidized lipid (fat) that protects the hair, which becomes dry, rough and dull. Without external protection, UV attack then the intercellular cement that is among the scales capillaries, weakening the hair and making it porous. When the ultraviolet get into the hair cortex (the inner middle layer), oxidized keratin (hair protein), getting hair breakage, split ends or discolor.

Water is his other great enemy, as the attacks multiply wet hair from the sun, dehydration promotes the degradation of melanin and discoloration, and alters the keratin causing the hair is fragile and brittle. Sea salt also promotes dehydration and, along with the sand, causing irritation to the scalp. The chlorine in pools and depigmented hair dyes fade, leading to result in greenish blond and pink dyed in mahogany.

All this happens because the hair, unlike skin, is an inert material and does not own defenses to all these agents and also lacks regenerative properties, so that once damage has been caused is very difficult to reverse the process. That is why the best way to maintain healthy hair in summer is prevention and the use of treatments that protect specific solar before, during and after exposure.

It should wash your hair after swimming in the sea or the pool with a post-sun shampoo to remove all traces of salt, chlorine, sand and apply a suitable conditioner to hair type and your specific needs. As time of frequent washing, do not need shampooing your hair twice or rubbing vigorously to prevent excessive loss of fat. However, it should be rinsed with water to remove any traces of cosmetics, salt or sand.

Summer is a tough time for the hair. The sun and humidity are the two greatest enemies. Hair, unlike skin, no system of defense against the sun, so you have to protect it properly so that the end of summer does not look dehydrated, rough, rough, split ends and dull.

In the middle of summer extreme care must be applied to everyday hair and protect hair and scalp from sun exposure as was done with the skin. There are various types of sunscreens, hair spray or as a finished product having a wet, shiny, wax, etc. Just choose the one that best suits each hair and circumstances.

It is also convenient to use caps, hats or scarves to avoid the action of ultraviolet rays if the exposure lasts long. However, you have to prevent hair sweat under these protectors, as moisture causes thickening of the hair and the opening of its scales, which is more porous and susceptible to damage and lose water through evaporation. Thus, caps and hats must be of breathable material and fresh.

The truth is that the hair needs sun protection even more than the skin, and it has no defense systems like the tan. The sun has the ability to clarify the hair, which produces beautiful reflections on the blond and brown, but may also clarify and alter the color of dyed hair and get to burn the hair, making it porous to break it. Aggression is not the only sufferer in summer: water, sea salt, sand, chlorine, wind are all factors that conspire against the health of hair and to be protected.

The diet and eating habits can be a potential cause of hair loss if not controlled, the food we eat. Every day there are more people in their diets do not include all the nutrients needed to maintain a strong and healthy hair. That is one reason why in Western societies alopecia is becoming a more common problem.

Today we will focus on vitamins have relevance for our hair. Therefore, we must include the appropriate amount of each vitamin in the diet for the hair to grow strong and healthy. Then list them by explaining the importance of each:

First, Vitamin A is very important in the production of sebum. Without it, the hair would be dry and scurfy.

Vitamin B also is important for healthy hair. All varieties of vitamin B helps with hemoglobin that carries oxygen to the scalp that needs to grow healthily. (more…)

The sun, salt, chlorine, wind and sand are more external agents that attack and deteriorate the hair structure during the summer. The hot air dries the hair and becomes fragile and porous. Ultraviolet rays alter both the natural color pigments of the dye. And chlorinated water of swimming pools or sea salt are filtered directly into your internal cuticle.

In this situation we must take urgent action. The first one is to wash your hair every day with an after sun shampoo will remove all hazardous waste, and add specific care such as masks and hair conditioners to facilitate and nurture the hair at the same time.

Burns are tissue injuries resulting from direct contact with flames, liquids, gases or hot surfaces, caustic chemicals, electricity or radiation. Explains the General Council of Official Colleges of Pharmacists, a patient with a burn should be evaluated a number of factors determine the severity of symptoms and therefore treatment. The skin is the most frequently damaged, which compromises its role as a barrier to lesionesy infections, as well as the regulator of body temperature. Before a burn patient should be evaluated a number of factors determine the severity of symptoms and therefore treatment.

The burn involves the destruction of cells in the affected area. The loss of keratin and lipids, which act as a barrier to evaporation, promotes water loss and thus loss of body heat. Moreover, the loss of the integrity of the skin, provides the possibility of infection.

The direct action of heat encourages the release of the vessels of vasoactive substances (histamine, prostaglandins) that increase vascular permeability, leading to local heat, flushing, and edema. This situation may lead to detachment of the epidermis and blisters. The dead tissue will fall off and replaced by new tissue.

When it is very superficial burns, the residual elements of the dermis regenerate the skin quickly, leaving no scars or permanent sequelae.

In severe cases, there is the cessation of blood flow in the burned area due to clots that block the capillaries. In this case, can cause the loss of the defense mechanisms of the area, inability to access the white blood cells and antibiotics administered by a systemic route. Also significantly hinders the restoration of damaged tissue.

I could not resist not to post a notice that these days you can see each morning, fitness is an invention of little use, the only thing it does is vibrate. Slander is the Shaper, a supposed revolution in the world of fitness that “serves” to shape our bodies and get in shape.

We are back to business as usual, getting a nice and perfect body without doing anything, just putting this device somewhere in your body and wait for the miracle. It’s funny how the ad makes reference to the product is safe and complies with thousands of rules, which is not synonymous with serving to what really advertise, to get an athletic, for what is obviously not going to serve us a lot.

All it does is vibrate the Slender Shaper, and I think that this has nothing to do with exercise. Help relieve muscle tension and massage could argue, but fat loss is achieved and tone up the area, so there is no where to take it, is like putting the phone in vibration mode of the legs and wait for our quads grow.

Put a beautiful body in the notice and say the magic words: lose fat fast, sexy, tone, model figure … and wait for people to chop and buy a product from 100 € to no avail, only to vibrate the flab with the deluded idea that we will lose in 30 minutes.

I still do not understand how nothing is done against these ads and products, are clearly misleading and miracle products that play with the desire of people to get a perfect body. Even foods minimally functional must prove its effects, why not do the same with this kind of thing?

Make no mistake, something does not burn fat and tone up, mostly because there is no muscle contraction or heart rate rises. Only sport and care of the diet can achieve long-term what is claimed in the notice, a body weight and toned.

At first glance, the hair dye and treatment of head lice do not seem to have nothing to do. However, there is evidence that this combination works.

Many people suffering from lice said their problem improved or even disappeared after undergoing a session of tincture in a beauty salon. So how dyes act on the lice? Before synthetic dyes exist, to change or enhance your hair color often used natural pigments of plants, flowers and tree bark. Traditionally, henna was used to darken hair and chamomile to lighten it. But these pigments tend to disappear within a few days, which resulted in the need for additives for coloring longer adhere to the hair. It was there appeared the coal tar dyes for semi-permanent dyes and PPD for permanent.

But for those ingredients were effective previously had to apply a component to prepare the hair. Then they began to use chemicals for color correction. Using chemicals such as ammonia and hydrogen peróxiodo, opened the stem capillaries. The dyes containing those ingredients were called oxidation dyes. With these chemicals are able to clarify the hair in a shorter period of time. Those chemicals are attributed the effectiveness of the dyes and the remedies for lice. The coat has a protein called keratin and work with it substances to show hair. When you open the stems capillaries, altered the glue that binds the nits to the hair, resulting in its detachment.

Another ingredient in hair dyes that may work against lice is alcohol. But it has a side effect: dry hair because the hair shaft loses moisture.
