4c able Future

 I don't know what's more Bi polar, Me or this weather. The time is now 9:55 am and in 5 mins it will be 10am, today the weather is supposed to be high of 80 degrees. With the shift between temperatures I found my nephews at Grandma's house coughing and sneezing just spreading germs and being gross. I had to put on my superwoman costume like my aunt would and whip up a holistic remedy passed down for generations. Some Good ol Lemon Ginger Peppermint Tea with a tspoon of honey. A mixture this simple seems to do the trick everytime. 

For centuries our ancestors have used holistic remedies to nuture our bodies from the inside out, that includes your hair. Hair growth happens in 4 phases and what you put in your body makes all the difference.

The growth phase also known as Anagen like mitosis allows cells to reproduce, divide and build follicles together around and upward the hair shaft; growing at about 1 centimeter per month from the root. This phase can go on continuously for 2-7 years.

Most of the scalp, well about 85% is in an active growing phase but there are times when the scalp transitions into the Catagen phase, this is a phase where 1-2% of your hair follicles shrink and detach from the blood supply. 

The telogen phase is the resting phase where the hair does not grow and remains in an inactive follicle. This resting phase is followed by the Exogen phase where the old hair sheds and makes room for new growth and this is totally normal no matter what your hair type is. Understanding the hair phase is so important to maintaing hair growth and overall health. 

Just like seasons change adapting to each phase will help you find the perfect remedy or recipe to keeping your self healthy from the inside out.
