Healthy Hair Ideas For You

The structure of hair is like that of the scales on the skin of a fish - that is overlapping scales around a central core called the cortical. Smoother overlapping and undamaged structure of this makes the hair look shiny and smooth and leads to easy combing while a tangled or roughed-up structure makes the hair look rough and dull and makes it difficult to comb as it causes interlocking of hair and make it “knotty”.

The type of hair, its color, the age for its graying and its retention on the head is normally inherited and depends upon the genetic makeup of the person. However there are few external factors which contribute to the health of hair, its behavior and its looks.
