How to recognize your hair type
Do you want hair that is always in top form , healthy and shiny but instead it is frizzy, untamed and dull? Can't find the right products to make your dream come true? You probably don't know your hair type! Just as it is good to know your skin type for an effective skincare routine, it is just as important for your hair care routine to know your hair type! Straight, wavy or curly, but not only! There are 12 types of hair texture! Among the variables we can then add the quantity of sebum, the porosity and the type of scalp, the latter too often overlooked! The scalp is not visible but it is absolutely important, it is where our hair sinks its roots! Index Plot Structure Porosity Sebaceous secretion Scalp Plot Texture is what defines hair as straight, wavy, or curly! Here are the 12 categories from straight to super curly! 1A Smooth and thin 1B Smooth and thick 1C Smooth Wavy 2A Wavy and thin 2B Wavy and thick 2C Wavy and very thick 3A Soft hedgehog with a large diameter 3B Spiral Curls 3C Corkscrew curls 4A Very tight curls 4B Ricci Z-shaped or S-shaped 4C Afro Curls To find out what texture your hair has, just use a neutral shampoo and let it air dry without brushing it or applying products. Now look at them dry and you will know what texture they have! Structure Hair structure is what defines hair as fine, normal or thick and refers to their diameter! The structure has a big impact on styling ! To recognize the structure of your hair you need a sheet of paper , a cotton sewing thread of a similar color to your hair and a hair of yours left in the comb. Place your hair and the thread on the white sheet and compare them. Fine hair: Your hair is thinner than the thread Normal hair : your hair is like thread Thick hair: Your hair is thicker than the thread Porosity Does your hair absorb or resist moisture and products? Its absorption capacity is determined by its porosity! But how do you understand the porosity of your hair? If you have long hair , take a lock of your hair and place it in a bowl of water. Does it sink in completely? Your hair has high porosity, which means it absorbs a lot of moisture! Floating but under the surface? Your hair is medium porosity! Floating on the surface of the water? Your hair is low porosity! If the porosity of the hair is high, it will certainly have small tears around the cuticle which also make it dry and fragile. Sebaceous secretion A further classification of hair is that linked to the sebaceous secretion of the scalp , which we will talk about shortly below. The sebaceous glands located at the base of the hair follicle from which the hair grows secrete sebum which forms the hydro-lipid mantle that protects the scalp and moistens, protects from external agents and decreases the permeability of the hair shaft. To understand if you have dry, frizzy, normal or greasy hair , it is good to take a look at it the day after washing it with only natural and neutral shampoo and without having applied any product before or after. Dry hair: it gets dirty a few days after washing, it doesn't appear greasy, it is delicate, it breaks easily and it looks frayed with split ends at the ends. Frizzy hair: This is untamed dry hair, it swells and reacts immediately to atmospheric conditions, it is fragile, dull and rough to the touch. Normal hair: can be washed, in normal conditions, every three days. It appears shiny and soft. This is the hair we all want! Greasy hair: it gets dirty the day after washing and immediately appears greasy at the roots. These conditions are closely linked to the health of the scalp! Scalp How is your scalp? Is it dry, oily or normal? The health of your scalp is crucial to the health of your entire hair, as it gets nourishment from there! As you have learned by now, wash your hair with natural and neutral shampoo. Do not apply products before or after and then give your scalp a little check! The scalp is in excellent shape: it is light pink, smooth and does not flake . Dead cells fall off imperceptibly. Dry scalp : it is unable to get rid of dead cells in time, which then accumulate, causing flaking and itching, dry dandruff. If it gets very irritated, it can cause seborrheic dermatitis. Oily scalp : excessive sebum production that is deposited at the base of the hair, which becomes greasy and often itchy. It is often associated with greasy dandruff, a white flake with large, greasy scales associated with itching. It is due to the accumulation and greasiness of dead cells that cannot fall off. suffocation by sebum from increased cell turnover of the skin. Sensitive scalp : no visible abnormality but it is a scalp that itches, burns and is hypersensitive. The hair “hurts” if moved or tied. Often the external causes are due to aggressive shampoos, pollution, stress, particular medications or internal causes such as hormonal changes. Now that you know how to recognize your hair type, you can move on to the next step! Discover in this article how to choose the products for your hair !

It might happen that the color is right, but the highlights are wrong: too yellow or orange, while we were expecting a cooler or more neutral tone. In these cases, it's not necessary to re-dye your hair because we could darken the color, and it's not enough to wait for the dye to fade: the highlights won't go away, but over time, they will begin to become more evident as the color oxidizes. In these cases, you can use a treatment to neutralize the reflections: these are products with pigments inside that are deposited on the hair and balance the excess of warm tones. Among the most effective are mousse treatments: mousses allow you to insert a high quantity of pigment into the product so you can easily tone the color.

Protein and hydration for curly hair: do we really need them?
A thick head of curly hair is certainly very impressive, but managing it is certainly no small task. In fact, they are very often typically unruly and require very delicate care and attention to make them shiny, soft and disciplined. But is it really necessary to use hydrating or protein-containing products? Curly Hair: Characteristics and Treatments That Work Hair has a life cycle that depends on the metabolism of the hair bulb. The hair follicle, or bulb, is the structure where hair and hair of the entire human body are born. Whether the hair is straight or curly depends mainly on the shape of the bulb itself. Curly hair grows from a bulb that is shaped like a “J”. The other factors that make up curly hair are: • Irregular keratin • Humidity in the atmosphere • Taking certain medications • Stimulated hormonal changes Curly hair is difficult to manage and this is due to the fact that the sebum cannot be distributed evenly. This can cause dry hair, frizzy hair, dandruff and scalp irritation. This is why when choosing products to treat your curly hair you need to pay particular attention to some characteristics : Shine : Curly hair does not absorb light evenly, which is why you should always choose products that promote shine in your hair. Hydration: sebum, not adhering properly to curly hair, makes them dry. Hence the reason why you should also consider this factor when choosing products for you. Definition: dealing with curly hair, typically unruly and messy, can be unnerving. But using the right products you will not have problems. In this sense, remember to consider: shape, length and structure of your curly hair. Fighting all these problems can help you solve the typical complications of curly hair, which is also naturally more fragile. This is why you need to take care of your curly hair with more attention than you would for straight hair. Proteins and hydration for curly hair If you are still wondering whether providing protein and hydration for your curly hair is really necessary, know that the answer is that they are essential. In fact, proteins make up almost 90% of the hair fiber (keratin is the major constituent part). If you use products that provide additional proteins to your hair, you will help it to strengthen! Be careful not to overdo it with these products, though, because too much protein will end up weighing down and weakening your curly hair, rather than strengthening it. Hydration of your curly hair is essential to properly cleanse the scalp and thus combat the annoying frizzy effect typical of curly hair. Use water-based products for this purpose with the addition of even more hydrating components (for example Aloe Vera) and absolutely avoid those with an alcohol base. Moisturize curly hair without mistakes: 5 practical tips Moisturizing curly hair without mistakes may not be easy, but you just need to follow these few, small tips to obtain significant results after the first treatments: • Apply pre-shampoo compresses regularly {"layoutMobile":2,"layoutDesktop":3,"buttonAlign":"Center","buttonText":"Go to product","productTitle":{"hue":213,"saturation":0,"brightness":0,"alpha":1},"priceColor":{"hue":0,"saturation":1,"brightness":0},"discountPrice":{"hue":356,"saturation":0.74,"brightness":1},"buttonCo lor":{"hue":26.67,"saturation":0.037,"brightness":0.9529,"alpha":1},"textBottomColor":{"hue":0,"satu ration":0,"brightness":0.018750000000000044,"alpha":1},"activeTitleButton":false,"moreProduct":"View all","moreProductUrl":"cesbgg-kq.myshopify.com","rowNumber":1,"dynamicProductId":[{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977193083266","title":"Impacco Rinforzante per Capelli","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"15.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/impacco-rinforzante-per-capelli-yuniwa-cosmetics-yumibio-528.webp?v=1752494704&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/impacco-rinforzante-per-capelli","altImage":"Impacco Rinforzante per Capelli -

How to choose hair products
This is an article dedicated to the first steps in the organic world : I'll talk to you about how to choose organic hair care products , to get the best results, without waste. You are on the Yumibio blog, where you can find hundreds of articles based on our experience with organic cosmetics, written to help you make targeted and informed purchases. In our shop you will find all the products I am talking about, you can buy them in total safety and receive them at your home by express courier Index How to choose organic products Which organic products to buy Organic shampoo Organic conditioner or organic mask Leave in and styling products How to choose organic products The first step to using organic cosmetics is towards your bathroom cabinet! Rule One: Zero Waste Read the labels of the products you already have at home , they all have a list of ingredients. Some of these, although safe, are not used in organic cosmetics and are replaced by other ingredients of natural origin. Reading labels can be tricky at first , but it will help you become familiar with common cosmetic ingredients and, over time, you will learn which ingredients your skin and hair particularly like and which ones are not for you. Even though the temptation to clean out is strong, the first rule of Yumibio is: zero waste ! Finish the products you already have at home: if there are a lot of them or if they are no longer suitable for you, you can give them away or use them for new purposes. Did you know that shampoo is also excellent as a body cleanser or for delicate clothes, while conditioner is an excellent alternative hair wash? Which organic products to buy While you finish your old products, you can already think about the new ones! Among organic cosmetics you will find many different products, rich in active ingredients that take care of your hair; at first they will all seem indispensable and you will discover that some of these products will really make the difference. However, I advise you not to buy many products right away, but to start with a few products, perhaps versatile and multipurpose. In the first few weeks of switching to organic cosmetics, you may in fact discover that your hair is different from what you thought : this happens because some ingredients in traditional cosmetics create a film on the hair that - in the long run - can weigh it down and make it appear different from what it actually is. To get started you will need: Organic shampoo Shampoo should be chosen based on the needs of your skin. I recommend starting with a delicate shampoo , also suitable for frequent washing: this will help you understand the real condition of your scalp. Later on, you can then add a shampoo for dry hair or a shampoo for greasy hair, with specific active ingredients for your needs. An excellent example of a shampoo to start your natural hair routine in the best way is the Delicate Shampoo by Yu ! Extra tip : also buy a shampoo dispenser . Organic shampoos produce less foam than traditional ones and you may be tempted to use more product than necessary. I therefore recommend that you dilute the shampoo (for medium-length hair, 10 ml of shampoo and 30 ml of water are sufficient), so that you can distribute it more easily on your hair, avoiding waste. Organic conditioner or organic mask These are products that are used after shampooing to untangle hair and remove knots ; they are always enriched with specific active ingredients and should be chosen based on the needs of the length of the hair. The mask is richer than the conditioner and should be left on for a few minutes (better if at least 5-10) to benefit from its active ingredients. A great product to start with is the Yuniwa Cosmetics mask : it detangles even the most unruly hair and is rich in illuminating and strengthening active ingredients. This makes it perfect for the first periods, when hair may appear duller, drier and more opaque. Plus, it has a super-cuddly scent of pears and vanilla, which has made many of our customers fall in love! Leave in and styling products These are products that are applied after rinsing out the mask or conditioner and are used to style the hair or to combat frizz or to protect it from the heat of the hairdryer . These products should be chosen based on the needs of your lengths: if you have curly hair you will need products to define and shape them, if you have frizzy hair you will need an anti-frizz product, if you have dry and treated hair you will instead need a restructuring product. When choosing a product, also consider the consistency: sprays and gels are usually lighter and also suitable for fine hair that gets dirty easily . If, on the other hand, you have dry and damaged hair, a cream or oil that provides more nourishment is better . {"layoutMobile":2,"layoutDesktop":3,"buttonAlign":"Center","buttonText":"Go to product","productTitle":{"hue":213,"saturation":0,"brightness":0,"alpha":1},"priceColor":{"hue":0,"saturation":1,"brightness":0},"discountPrice":{"hue":356,"saturation":0.74,"brightness":1},"buttonCo lor":{"hue":26.67,"saturation":0.037,"brightness":0.9529,"alpha":1},"textBottomColor":{"hue":0,"satu ration":0,"brightness":0.018750000000000044,"alpha":1},"activeTitleButton":false,"moreProduct":"View all","moreProductUrl":"cesbgg-kq.myshopify.com","rowNumber":1,"dynamicProductId":[{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977480589698","title":"Hair Filler - Siero rimpolpante per capelli 50 ml","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"13.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/hair-filler-siero-rimpolpante-per-capelli-50-ml-yuniwa-cosmetics-371.webp?v=1752506091&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/hair-filler-siero-rimpolpante-per-capelli-50-ml","altImage":"Hair Filler - Siero rimpolpante per capelli 50 ml - Yuniwa Cosmetics"},{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977476723074","title":"Hair Booster - Spray Rinforzante per capelli 50 ml","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"13.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/hair-booster-spray-rinforzante-per-capelli-50-ml-yuniwa-cosmetics-652.webp?v=1752487266&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/hair-booster-spray-rinforzante-per-capelli-50-ml","altImage":"Hair Booster - Spray Rinforzante per capelli 50 ml - Yuniwa Cosmetics"},{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977193148802","title":"Crema Rinforzante per Capelli","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"15.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/crema-rinforzante-per-capelli-yuniwa-cosmetics-yumibio-577.webp?v=1752484599&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/crema-rinforzante-per-capelli","altImage":"Crema Rinforzante per Capelli - Yuniwa Cosmetics"},{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977193083266","title":"Impacco Rinforzante per Capelli","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"15.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/impacco-rinforzante-per-capelli-yuniwa-cosmetics-yumibio-528.webp?v=1752494704&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/impacco-rinforzante-per-capelli","altImage":"Impacco Rinforzante per Capelli - Yuniwa Cosmetics"},{"id":"gid://shopify/Product/14977484325250","title":"Gel Modellante per Capelli - 200 ml","currencyCode":"EUR","price":"16.90","compareAtPrice":null,"imagesUrl":"https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0906/5329/4978/files/gel-modellante-per-capelli-200-ml-yuniwa-cosmetics-yumibio-871.webp?v=1752491868&width=600","urlStore":"https://www.yumibio.com/products/gel-modellante-per-capelli-200-ml","altImage":"Gel Modellante per Capelli - 200 ml - Yuniwa Cosmetics"}],"typeSearch":"product","device":"desktop","decimalsPrice":2,"aspectRatio":"3 / 4","isAutoPlay":false,"isNavigation":false,"isPriceDisplay":false,"rowDynamic":"mot","activeDecimals":false,"hidden":false,"locked":false,"positionPrice":false,"currencyCodeCustom":"$","activeDynamicProd":true,"blockName":"Product"} Hair Filler - Siero rimpolpante per capelli 50 ml EUR 13.90 Go to product Hair Booster - Spray Rinforzante per capelli 50 ml EUR 13.90 Go to product Crema Rinforzante per Capelli EUR 15.90 Go to product Impacco Rinforzante per Capelli EUR 15.90 Go to product Gel Modellante per Capelli - 200 ml EUR 16.90 Go to product Want to continue learning all about natural hair care?

How to care for your hair in summer: 7 tips for healthy hair.
Taking care of your hair in summer is important to have healthy and shiny hair when you return from vacation! Sun, wind, salt or chlorine can make them dry and brittle but by following our tips for healthy hair, you can keep their natural beauty intact! Index Postpone hair color change Care for colored hair Choose soft hairstyles Protect your hair Always rinse your hair Hair restructuring treatment Try giving up the hair dryer Postpone hair color change Do you feel it's time for a change of color? It might be better to wait ! If you're thinking of a drastic change, postpone your hairdresser appointment for a few weeks. After a color change, your hair needs time and care to regain its vitality and it's best not to stress it too much before the holidays. This is especially true if you plan to lighten your hair: the sun has a lightening effect and you risk the dye fading over time. Your red might turn orange and your blonde might turn yellow sooner than expected, so why not wait? Care of colored hair Colored and treated hair needs specific treatments all year round and especially in summer, due to the lightening power of the sun. By using a shampoo (and maybe a mask) specific to your hair type, you keep the color alive for longer, prevent it from fading sooner than expected and combat dry hair. I recommend the Yu Gentle Shampoo for all hair types , a cleanser rich in hydrating , soothing and emollient ingredients, with very delicate surfactants that effectively cleanse the scalp and hair, while fully respecting the hydrolipidic film. It is also excellent thanks to its anti-frizz action and its ability to keep dryness and irritation at bay. Perfect for frequent use , it is ready to accompany your summer hair routine with delicacy and effectiveness! Pair it with YU's Disciplining Mask Conditioner , a 2in1 cosmetic, perfect for your hair routine on holiday, which allows you to have a complete treatment for your hair in just one bottle. Used as a conditioner after shampoo, it effectively detangles hair and restores the hair's pH, ensuring softness and shine. Use it as a post-shampoo mask , extending the application time from 3-4 minutes to 15 minutes, to obtain a more intense nourishing, hydrating, anti-frizz action. Choose soft hairstyles Buns are essential for dealing with the heat, but I recommend avoiding high ponytails, chignons and tight buns that pull your hair, damaging it from root to tip. You prefer low ponytails, soft braids, messy updos that softly frame your face. To put even less stress on your hair, replace the classic elastic bands with hair bands , fabric hair ties or clips . Protect your hair When you are at the beach or walking in the sun, remember to protect your scalp with hats or bandanas . To protect the lengths you can instead use a heat protectant to protect the hair from the heat. You can also use it when you come back from the beach, to protect your hair from the heat of the hairdryer ! My favorite is the Esmeralda Cosmetics heat protector , in the summer version that smells of the Sardinian sea and illuminates your hair with golden shimmers. Always rinse your hair Always rinse your hair with fresh water after swimming in the sea or pool: salt and chlorine dry out your hair and this leads to frizz and breakage. Rinse thoroughly, without rubbing, and then complete your routine at home by washing your hair with a hydrating post-beach shampoo. : removes salt and hydrates hair and scalp. Hair restructuring treatment To restructure your hair, use a serum with keratin, proteins, biotin and peptides to plump the hair fiber and restructure it thoroughly. You can try the Yuniwa Cosmetics Hair Filler plumping serum , a panacea for fragile and lifeless hair. Try giving up the hair dryer For the well-being of your hair , try to do without the hairdryer : air drying does not stress your hair and also helps you avoid frizz! If you don't want to give up curls , try a heat-free styling method, such as the band method . Now that you know how to take care of your hair in summer, don't miss our guide to winter hair care ! If you want to have healthy and beautiful hair, in a natural way, continue reading our articles in the Hair - Guides and tutorials section! [ApSC sc_key=sc3148331291][/ApSC]

Hair loss: tips and natural remedies
Hair loss is a natural and physiological process: every day we lose between 40 and 120 hairs but don't panic, it's all normal. This hair loss is in fact part of the hair renewal cycle and, under normal conditions, the hair that falls out is replaced by new hair in the growth phase. In spring and autumn, however, we can notice a greater loss of hair: this is the seasonal fall where we can lose up to 200 hairs a day. Even in this case, it is a physiological phenomenon that tends to disappear on its own within a few weeks. Index Why does hair fall out? Causes of hair loss Natural remedies for hair loss Anti-hair loss compresses Why does hair fall out? Hair has a life cycle that lasts from 2 to 6 years , during which it grows and develops inside the hair follicle. In the last months of life, the hair stops growing and enters a "resting phase". At the end of this cycle, the hair is pushed away by the new hair growing underneath it, in the same follicle . A true continuous renewal, in which every hair that falls out is replaced by a new one that grows! In some periods of the year, the shedding is more conspicuous : this is a reminder of our ancestral life, which recalls the moulting of animals' fur and, if you have a dog or a cat at home, you know well what I'm talking about! Seasonal shedding occurs twice a year, in autumn between September and November and in spring between April and May. Causes of hair loss As I mentioned, under normal conditions, hair loss is not a cause for concern because growing hair replaces the hair that falls out. However, there may be factors that prevent natural replacement , leading to more abundant loss or slower regrowth. Factors that can influence hair loss include: genetic predisposition; period of physical or psychological stress ; post-pregnancy and breastfeeding; drastic and unbalanced diets , with mineral deficiencies; hormonal changes; very heavy menstrual cycle ; skin conditions, such as seborrheic dermatitis or psoriasis; thyroid diseases ; frequent bleaching, incorrect use of hair dryers and straighteners; smoke; trichotillomania, a disorder that leads to uncontrolled hair pulling; If you notice particularly heavy hair loss, with areas of thinning hair or areas prone to alopecia, the first advice is to see a doctor. The trichologist is the doctor specialized in the treatment of hair problems, who will be able to indicate the right treatments for your case. Natural remedies for hair loss Precisely because hair loss is a completely natural phenomenon, there are no methods to stop it permanently. What we can do, however, is to keep our body and scalp healthy, so as to help our hair follicles produce strong, healthy hair. The best way to combat hair loss is to start with your diet : follow a balanced diet and choose foods rich in vitamins A, E, C and minerals. Drink plenty of water and don't forget to include seasonal fruit and vegetables in your diet. Use localized treatments to combat hair loss, such as Hair Tonic Yuniwa Cosmetics , a treatment with revitalizing and anti-hair loss active ingredients. Hair Tonic is a real concentrate of well-being for your scalp: it combats hair loss, soothes irritation, itching and regulates sebum production. With Italian Annurca Apple, Caffeine, extracts of Butterfly Tree, Rosemary, Ivy, it reactivates the skin's microcirculation, stimulating the growth of healthy, strong hair and improving the health of the scalp. If your hair starts to become even thinner and more fragile, combine it with Hair Booster Yuniwa Cosmetics, a concentrate of active ingredients to give energy and vitality to the hair. Hair Booster is a light, non-greasy spray that you can use on your scalp every day. Contains iron, zinc and copper precious mineral salts to strengthen hair and combat graying; Hair Booster has been enriched with: keratin , the main protein that makes up hair, biotin , a vitamin that makes hair strong and resistant peptides , which counteract hair aging.

How to protect your hair from the cold
With the first cold weather have you noticed that your hair is drier , with broken ends and seems to get dirty more quickly? In this article I talk to you about the effects of cold on hair and I explain how to pamper your hair when temperatures drop. Index Why the cold ruins your hair How to protect your hair from the cold Natural remedies to protect hair from the cold Why the cold ruins your hair In the cold , hair undergoes various types of stress that can make it appear drier and more damaged. The cold acts on the hydrolipidic film of the hair, making it thicker and making the hair stiff, dry and with split ends. Wind can also cause knots and worsen frizz, especially if you have wavy or curly hair. Wind can also increase rubbing between your hair , especially if you are used to leaving it loose; rubbing can damage the hair cuticles, making them more fragile and split ends can appear. To the damage caused by the climate, are added those of smog and pollution , which make hair dull and damaged.

To protect my hair from the cold, my favorite wash is co-wash , which cleanses my hair without attacking it. If you don't have the patience to use a co-wash and prefer a simpler product to use, I recommend preparing a mix with 10 ml of Shampoo Gel , 10 ml of Strengthening Pack , 10 ml of Rosemary Hydrolate . Mix to emulsify the ingredients well and apply to wet skin. This is a very delicate, super-hydrating and strengthening cleansing mix ! avoid high temperatures : excessive heat damages hair and scalp. Do not use too hot water when washing your hair, set the hair dryer to medium temperature and speed, reduce the use of straighteners and curling irons as much as possible! use a hat : a hat protects your hair from wind, humidity and pollution. Use a hat made of natural fibres that does not tighten on your head so as not to hinder circulation. Natural remedies to protect hair from the cold To combat dryness, increase the pampering for your hair. If you love herbs , go for those rich in mucilage like fenugreek and marshmallow. Combine them with hydrating ingredients like gel and honey, so as to counteract the dryness caused by herbs. If you prefer a ready-made product , choose a restructuring conditioner or a restructuring mask , which helps you nourish your hair and keep it healthy. You can also choose a leave-in with a protective and plumping action, such as Hair Filler Yuniwa Cosmetics , a light milk, rich in nourishing, strengthening, plumping and protective active ingredients for lengths and ends. Pre-shampoo packs with vegetable oils are excellent, perfect for dry and damaged lengths and ends. Wet your hair, pour a few drops of oil into the palm of your hand and apply it to your hair. Cover with a cap and leave on for at least 40 minutes before shampooing.

How to protect your hair during sports
Protecting your hair during sports and swimming helps protect your hair from the stress that sweat , chlorine or tight hairstyles can cause. Sport is a friend of circulation, stimulates the release of serotonin - the hormone of good mood - and helps you to release stress and worries. However, during sports activity the production of salt and sebum increases, which are contained in sweat and can dry out the hair, making it dull . The rubbing that occurs during movement, however, can make the hair more fragile and prone to breakage. If you love the swimming pool , chlorine and caps made of non-breathable materials can dry out and weaken your hair, making it dull and lifeless. But don't worry, here are my tips for protecting your hair during sports! Index Gather your hair Wash your hair after your workout Dry gently Hair and pool Gather your hair Tied hair is essential if you play sports and have medium-long hair; however, we often make the mistake of tying it incorrectly, choosing high and very tight ponytails, perhaps with too many turns of elastic or hairpins that tear the hair. A tight ponytail risks breaking and weakening your hair, and keeping your hair too close to your head risks blocking sweat on your scalp, limiting transpiration. If your sport allows it, choose a soft hairstyle , such as a braid or a soft bun, perhaps tied with an elastic band that does not break the hair, such as Invisibobble elastic bands . If you really can't avoid the ponytail, be careful not to always tie your hair in the same place and replace the hairpins with a headband or bandana. Wash your hair after your workout Sweat can dry out your hair and can cause itchy, irritated scalp, so it is important to remove sweat from your hair after working out. If your hair is clean and you just need to remove sweat, you don't need to use shampoo: you can rinse with water only or use an alternative hair wash . Alternative washes are great for having clean, soft hair without stressing the scalp too much. For example, you can try Co-Wash Yuniwa Cosmetics , a full-bodied cream with a cleansing, detangling, strengthening and illuminating action. This Co-Wash smells of pears and vanilla and allows you to have clean, stress-free hair. Apply to damp hair, massage thoroughly, emulsify with water and rinse well. You don't need to apply conditioner or mask after cleansing, your hair will be clean, soft and disciplined! Bonus: You can also use it to cleanse your body, so you can carry just one product in your bag! If you need to wash your hair, use a delicate shampoo suitable for frequent washing , such as YU Delicate Shampoo . Dry gently After washing your hair, pat dry the excess water without rubbing and detangle your hair with your fingers, a wide-toothed comb or a wooden brush. Use a heat protector and dry holding the hairdryer at least 20 cm from your head, selecting the lowest speed and temperature. If you train often and therefore need to wash your hair very frequently, avoid - when possible - using straighteners or curling irons : the very high temperatures put our hair to the test! Hair and pool If you train in the pool, it is important to protect your hair from the action of chlorine, which dries and dehydrates it. Before entering the pool, wet your hair with fresh water : the hair will already be soaked in water and will tend to absorb less of the water from the pool. If your pool rules allow it, you can apply a hair wrap to your hair to protect and moisturize it during your workout. You can apply coconut oil or argan oil, for a nourishing pack or a strengthening pack that hydrates the hair from the root. The Yuniwa strengthening pack in travel size is great to take with you wherever you go, without taking up space in your gym bag! A great system can be to use a double cap : gather your hair in a soft lycra cap and wear the silicone or latex cap over it. This way your hair will be protected from rubbing with the silicone that can break and pull the hair. If you can't wash your hair immediately after your workout, rinse it thoroughly with fresh water to remove any chlorine residue. If you have colored hair , use specific products for treated hair or even after-sun hair products. Do you know about alternative washes? They are delicate and natural washes that allow you to respect your hair even when you wash it frequently. Find out everything in our guide on alternative washes !
