Why does my hair start to feel different???


Like most Florida residents, we often have less than satisfactory drinking/bathing water in our homes. Most people have opted for everything from osmosis systems to water softeners and full home water filtration operations. When I first moved from the sunshine state, I often watched my hair morph right in front of my eyes...it went from being manageable, healthy and clean feeling, to tangly, dirty and limp. I would blow dry my hair after washing, to only find that it felt like it needed to be washed again immediately. It was a vicious cycle, and one that did not end until I started using clarifying systems and treatments. Here is one that I recommend. There is also the Malibu Wellness line that has not only scalp wellness shampoos, but weekly treatments as well. **BE ADVISED** a lot of people don't know this, but mineral build up in hair follicles can contribue to hair loss and hindered hair growth! HAIR CLEANSING CREAM SHAMPOO

Clarifies and works to remove copper, iron, hard water minerals and styling product build-up on all hair types. Formulated with fruit acids to add shine, purify and refresh hair.

Why It Works:

> Clarifies and works to remove copper, iron, hard water minerals and styling product build-up

> Purifies, refreshes and leaves hair shiny

Key Ingredients:

Contains a high concentration of chelating agents that surround minerals, making them more soluble so they can be washed away. Formulated with fruit acids to add shine, it purifies and refreshes hair.

How To Use:

Alternate with your regular shampoo. Apply to wet hair, massage into a lather. Rinse. Repeat if necessary. For excessive build-up, leave in 5-10 minutes. Rinse.

COLOR EXTEND SUN
New Color Extend Sun protects highlights, safeguards color and replenishes sun-stressed strands. Redken’s exclusive Interbond Conditioning System and advanced Hydra-Shield Complex with Soplexyl™, a patented UV filter, provide powerful protection while restoring lost moisture and luminous shine. Color Extend Sun is a perfect compliment to Color Extend. It is the ideal regimen when spending time at the beach and by the pool or for clients who spend a lot of time outdoors. Color Extend Sun is also great for daily use during the summertime or year-round for those who live in warm climates.

**This is a must for Floridians. Our sun is so strong, especially through the summer months, that our hair color fades every minute we are outdoors, even if we don't spend time basking in the sun. Simple color shampoos aren't doing the trick...we need something with additional UVB filters to act as a barrier to the sun.
