From grey hairs and thinning tresses, to loss of volume and wiry texture, changing hair is a natural part of the ageing process. But the good news is there’s plenty you can do to give your hair a youth boost and get your crowning glory looking fabulous, just in time for party season…
1 Update your haircare
Can’t remember the last time you changed your shampoo and conditioner? Then it’s time foran update. The condition of your hair can change depending on lots of factors, and the more you tailor your haircare to suit you, the better it will look. Think about it, you select a cleanser or moisturiser that works for your skin type, so the same should apply to your hair. If you’re menopausal, you might find those spikes in hormones are causing more than hot flushes, with your hair becoming finer and thinner. Swap your usual shampoo and conditioner for Plantur 39 Phyto-Caffeine Shampoo, RRP £9.75, and Conditioner, RRP £7.99, for fine, brittle hair. Specially formulated for hair that’s over 40, it helps to prevent menopausal hair loss by strengthening the roots of your hair while you wash it, giving it more longevity.
