As the seasons shift and we slowly emerge from the cold, dry winter air into warmer and also dry air our bodies maybe freaking out! It is common that our hair, skin, and scalp can have a difficult time adjusting to the weather changes we experience in Utah. Common effects would be having dry hair, dry and itching scalp and skin and perhaps experiencing some extra shedding of the hair and having skin flakes from the scalp (looks like dandruff, but is temporary). Our bodies are smart and will begin to realign it's self and rebalance the oils it produces to combat these weather changes. However, it can make for a few uncomfortable weeks as our bodies adapt to these shifts. Luckily there have been some brilliant minds that have created hair and body care products to help with these symptoms. Here are my three favorite products to help our body and hair rebalance itself during these seasonal shifts. Healthy Hair Oil by Banyan Botanicals $12.99+ This is by far one of my favorite products at the moment! I was introduced to this by my friend Maria who is a yoga and Ayurveda practitioner. This oil is a game changer! Apply it to your scalp and let it soak in for 10-20 minutes. This oil helps rebalance the PH in the scalp, adding moisture into dry scalps, but also rebalancing oily scalps and helping the body to produce less natural oils. This is a great universal product to help with all scalp issues. You can also pull the oils to the ends of the hair to help rehydrate the hair. This is a treatment that you will only use once a week at the most. Oils like this was designed for Asian hair which is thicker and coarser than European hair. Do not over use this product, if used daily it can have the opposite effect on finer textures of hair. I will go into further detail about why this happens in certain hair types in a future post. HEMPZ Body Moisturizer $7.99+ By far the best body lotion I've ever used! I used to hate lotion because I felt it left my skin oily, greasy, and unclean. However this lotion absorbs into the skin beautifully! Leaving the skin soft to the touch with no residue of the lotion. With a soft, natural scent of bananas and floral you will love this lotion as it's hydrating properties. Don't let the image worry you, this product is THC and CBD free, allowing the natural Hemp oils to stand on it's own. Eleven Australia 3 Minute Repair Treatment $21.99 Finding a hair mask can be challenging, with so many on the market how do you know which one will be a right fit for your hair? Don't you worry! The 3 Minute Repair Treatment is a great hair mask to use weekly to help rehydrate and repair your hair. This treatment is designed to be used in all hair types and textures, this is a great mask to help slight-moderate dry hair. After just one use you will notice healthier, shinier, and softer hair. To be used once a week after a shampoo, leave on the hair for three minutes and rinse out.
