Hair Emergency!

We can’t deny that we keep torturing our hair on and on. . .it gets dyed, straightened, curled, „sculptered“ and fixed with spray, gel, wax and whatever else!! Acutally we can be happy not to end up bald one day!!

And that’s why I grant my hair some „wellness time“ and apply „Hair Doctor“ by Lush once a month! It’s perfect for scalp and hair, it activates the blood circulation of your scalp and gives your hair back what you take from it!
It’s a pre-wash mask that you leave on your scalp/hair for about 20 minutes and it leaves a fresh sensation on your scalp after rinsing! The best is, that’s it’s not even that expensive. . .between 10 and 15€ for 100 ml (depending on the length of your hair it's enough for 2 applications). . .sounds ok to me regarding its richness! Some of the ingredients are -> jojoba oil, mint and rosmary.

A little trick especially for people who keep dying their hair: I use „Hair Doctor“ before the last washing preceding the dying and at the first time I wash it after the dying prodecure. (so not during the dying procedure itself!)


Of course you can also mix a cure yourself: take a mellow avocado, a little bit of lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil/olive oil. Use a fork or spoon to process all the ingredients into a paste and apply on humid hair. Let it do its job for +- 20 min. and proceed to normal washing of your hair.

All those cures/masks shouldn’t be used too often and rinse them abundantly as you don’t want your hair to look greasy! Like I already mentioned, once or twice a month regarding the condition of your hair is fine!

Another important aspect: don't dry your hair too hot!! If you can switch to a colder level/grade on your hairdryer do so (not completely cold of course but half the usual heat would already be great)!! That alone makes a huge difference!

So when thinking of spa or wellness, give your hair some credit too! It will thank you by looking awesome and healthy!!

  1. Great article, Sweetheart! And I guess very important. Hair is the most beautiful jewellery a woman could call her own.
