The evolution of the textured hair with age: a natural process with multiple facets

Hair, beyond their aesthetic appearance, is an indicator of our health and evolve with age. For textured hair, which includes hair types ranging from curls to frizzy, these changes can be particularly pronounced. The evolution of the textured hair with age manifests through several dimensions: texture, color, density and health of the scalp.

Modification of the texture

Over the years, the texture of the hair can undergo significant changes. Hair that was naturally curly or frizzy can become finer and less defined. This transformation is mainly due to a decrease in keratin production, an essential protein for health and hair structure. With age, the sebaceous glands of the scalp produce less sebum, which can make hair drier and less elastic. These changes often make textured hair more likely to scrap and can alter their ability to retain humidity.

Graying

Grayation is another visible sign of hair aging. Textured hair is no exception to this rule. The graying occurs when the pigment producing cells (melanocytes) at the level of the hair follicle cease to produce melanin, the pigment which gives its color to the hair. This transition to gray or white hair can be perceived differently depending on cultures and individuals, with an increasing acceptance of this natural manifestation of aging.

Decrease in density

With age, it is also common to see a reduction in hair density. This phenomenon, often more marked in men in the form of baldness, also affects women. Hair is gradually becoming clearer, a change that is exacerbated by genetic and environmental factors. For people with textured hair, this decrease can make hair even more fragile and require suitable care to minimize the effects of aging.

Scalp health

The health of the scalp is crucial to maintain the vitality of the hair at any age. Over time, the scalp can become drier and less flexible, thus affecting the overall health of hair. Regular care, such as hydration and scalp massages, can stimulate circulation and promote the health of hair follicles.

Advice for aging textured hair

The aging of hair is something natural and inevitable, however, there are ways to slow down this process. The JIA team's advice is to combine products in (internal care) & out (external care).

"In" care

 

 Strength and pushes tablets

Our Force and Pousse tablets will help you strengthen your hair fiber from the inside and prevent weakening of the hair thanks to their composition in vitamins and minerals such as selenium, brewer's yeast, magnesium, vitamin B6 or biotin (B8).

Gummies "Volume & Fall"

Their important content of vitamins A, E, C, D and B (B6, B9, B12) as well as minerals such as zinc will help to fight against the decrease in the density of your hair and will allow them to find volume.

Our synergy of oils will be ideal for areas where you have lost in density (these are very often temples or the top of the skull), because it is rich in suitable ingredients.

Growth lotion

It can be used on the entire scalp and daily due to its aqueous texture (which allows rapid absorption of the scalp). Rich in plant active ingredients (chamomile, nettle, horsetail, sage ...), our growth lotion allows rapid hair growth as well as an increase in its density and its volume.

Moisturizer

We advise you to favor our moisturizing milk during styling in order to hydrate the hair without weighing down and tiring it. Hydration, as well as nutrition, are essential steps in order to counter the effects of time passing because they will keep the hair healthy.

The evolution of textured hair with age is a natural process that varies according to each individual. Understanding and accepting these changes can not only help maintain hair health, but also to embrace their natural beauty at each stage of life.
