As time goes by, the texture of the hair changes. It becomes thinner, drier and more fragile...it becomes damaged and starts showing its age. Find out what the symptoms of aging hair are, and how to remedy it.
Summary
The primary cause of hair aging: time.
Just as the skin becomes marked and progressively changes texture after age 40, the same happens with the hair. The hair aging process does not only result in hair turning white, it goes a lot further. The ecosystem of the scalp deteriorates gradually: there is less and less blood flow to the hair root, which therefore receives less oxygen, vitamins and trace elements. The age of the mature hair becomes measurable: the growth rate slows down and the hair fiber reduces in diameter, until there is an overall impression of less hair volume.
Having mature hair means you can see it in the mirror. With age, hair starts to turn gray, but that's not all. The hair fiber becomes thinner and also loses strength.
According to a clinical study conducted by our laboratories*, hair aging causes:
Direct consequence: because aging hair is increasingly sensitive and fragile, it becomes damaged more quickly and is more difficult to style.
So how can you fight against aging hair? Just as you take special care of your skin after age 40, it is important to integrate anti-aging products into your hair care routine. A food supplement treatment specifically made for hair, along with regular scalp massage, can also be a good solution to help hair regain bounce and volume.
