Damaged Hair Treatments for Every Age

During your 40s, the texture of your hair begins to change. Some of this is due to aging hair and some is from the treatments and color changes you experimented with in your 20s catching up with you. In addition to seeing a few stray grays, you might notice your hair is significantly dryer. Mele recommends using essential oils to soften wiry hair and rebalance the oils on your scalp. Peppermint is especially great for dry hair, and rosemary for oily strands. Apply at night and brush through, or choose a leave-in conditioner like Organix Hydrating Tea Tree Mint Leave-in Conditioner to use day or night.
