Gray Hair Care ā My Trusted Routine
Today, Iām sharing my daily routine for caring for gray hair. Maybe youāll find some inspiration here!Ā Ā Iāve always chosen gentle shampoos and conditioners (or masks) with good ingredients. I avoid ābad ingredientsā like SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), alcohol, and unnecessary dyes. For me, simplicity and effectiveness are key ā and my hair appreciates it! My Golden Rule: Why? Because no shampoo can make your hair shine if you neglect your scalp and hair follicles. Healthy hair starts at the roots! And conditioner?

Happy Birthday to me :)
Aging... What a perfect moment to write a few words about it. Is it really aging, or is it more about gaining life experience? Every life journey begins at birth and ends in the same place for everyone. Itās up to us whether we flow with it or resist it. Accepting time and the cycle of life is that conscious moment when you go with the flow instead of wasting time dwelling on the past and longing for whatās been lost. I havenāt lost anything- everything has its time: youth, foolishness, and growing up. Now itās a different time and a different appearance – everything just as nature intended. When…

You Are Priceless!Your Worth Does Not Depend on Anything External
How much are you worth? This question has been echoing in my mind for a long time, so I might write more than usual because this is truly important. Let’s think about your inner value. What is your sense of self-worth? What is it built upon, and have you always had it? The answer is always the same ā you were priceless, you are priceless, and you will be priceless! Any scratch on this opinion comes only from the beliefs you acquired during your life, from others’ opinions and judgments. Your worth does not depend on your hair color, brand-name clothes, possessions, education, or the number of likes you get.…

My Journey to Healthier Hair #2 Diet
Diet. Doesn’t this word sound like something we’d want to avoid at all costs? It brings to mind restrictions, sacrifices, and an unpleasant feeling that we have to give something up. But don’t be misled ā it’s actually about something much more positive and constructive. Instead of talking about dieting, I prefer to focus on “rational eating.” Sounds better, doesn’t it? Our nutritional needs change with every stage of life. Proper nutrition isn’t about mindlessly stuffing ourselves but about consciously choosing what lands on our plates. Different periods in life require different nutrients. And what happens inside us directly affects how we look outside. That’s why it’s important to focus…

My Journey to Healthier Hair #1 cosmetics
The beginning of my journey with a thorough analysis of the cosmetics I use coincided with the period when I started struggling with hair loss. I quickly discovered that not only does dyeing have a negative impact on my hair, drying it out and contributing to hair loss, but daily products such as shampoos also have an adverse effect. I was surprised when I realized that most care products contain strong detergents, far from being neutral to our health. I’m talking not only about shampoos but also about body wash gels, and even those intended for intimate hygiene! Hidden Enemies in the Composition: SLS, SLES, and Others Especially SLS (Sodium…

Unfortunately, much depends on our genetics, but we can strengthen them through a good diet and proper care. Below, I have prepared a list of vitamins and minerals essential for strengthening natural nails. 1. Vitamin A – A for Advancement in Care Vitamin A is a true star in nail care. It protects against brittleness and enhances nail flexibility. You can find it in carrots, spinach, sweet potatoes, and papaya. Vitamin A also aids in the production of keratin, the main component of nails. 2. Vitamin…

Silver way – my gray hair care under transformation:)
Today, I want to share with you my journey of embracing my natural gray hair, which has now been ongoing for 8 months! Alongside this decision, I also had to make changes to my hair care routine. The biggest shift has been my introduction to purple shampoos and new conditioners… But let’s start from the beginning… 2. Conditioners: After rinsing, I apply rinse-out conditioners about 4 cm from the scalp and let them sit for around 2-3 minutes. Sometimes, I also use purple conditioners, like the one from the picture – Maroccanoil. However, my hair doesn’t particularly love this one (it tends to feel a bit overloaded), or Shimmer of…
