The condition of your hair changes with age.
It can become thinner, drier and less elastic.
But often the greatest influence comes not from hormones alone but from everyday habits.
Even small changes can help keep your hair stronger and more vibrant.
What happens to hair over time?
Hair is not living tissue — its condition depends on:
- its structure (keratin)
- its outer layer (the cuticle)
- the condition of the scalp
The cuticle is made up of tiny “scales” that:
- protect the inside of the hair
- help retain moisture
- determine how smooth and shiny the hair looks
When this layer is damaged, hair becomes rougher and breaks more easily.
Water temperature – an often underestimated detail
When you wash your hair:
- warm water helps remove dirt
- but it can “open” the cuticle
That is why it helps to rinse your hair with cooler water at the end — this helps to:
- “close” the cuticle
- smooth the surface of the hair
- add more shine
Your pillow and your hair (silk vs cotton)
At night your hair is in constant contact with the surface of your pillow.
Cotton:
- absorbs moisture
- increases friction
- can encourage breakage
Silk:
- absorbs less moisture
- reduces friction
- helps keep hair smooth
Even such a small detail can have a long-term effect.
Brushing and mechanical stress
Wet hair is weaker.
Aggressive brushing can:
- damage the structure of the hair
- encourage breakage
We recommend:
- starting from the ends
- using a wide-tooth comb
- avoiding strong pulling
Heat and hair structure
High temperatures:
- weaken the keratin structure
- reduce the hair’s resilience
- increase breakage
Regular heat styling without protection can worsen the condition of your hair over time.
Diet and hair
The condition of your hair is closely linked to internal processes.
What matters:
- protein
- amino acids
- minerals (zinc, selenium)
That is why hair care is not only about what you do on the outside.

Stress and the hair cycle
Long-term stress can affect the hair growth cycle.
Hair loss often appears not immediately but a few months after a period of heavier stress.
This is linked to hormonal changes and changes in the nervous system.

Caring from within
Just as we care for how our hair looks from the outside, it is equally important to support its condition from within.
The structure of hair is formed inside the body, so internal support is a natural part of long-term care.
