This element can build up, leaving the hair feeling dry and preventing proper chemical services, such as perms and colors, from processing properly.

SILICA Sand-like substance found in areas of volcanic or desert-like areas. It is usually bound to calcium or magnesium and forms very hard, virtually insoluble deposits on surfaces. Water borne silica can build up on the hair, causing the same effect as calcium - dryness, dandruff, weight, and hair loss.

MAGNESIUM Magnesium is abundant in the soil and is very much a part of the mineral complex associated with hard water. Like calcium, magnesium attaches to the hair, leaving it feeling dry and weighted down.

Oxidized iron actually functions as an oxidizer in hair in much the same way that mild peroxide attacks the hair. It may cause an excessive dry f

If you have hard water or rusty water at home you may notice it can be dry, coarse or even a little discolored. Water residue can form once shampoo comes in contact with metal ions that are found in the water such as magnesium and calcium, which can stick to your hair and damage or stain it. A Malibu treatment contains anti-oxidants that remove the build up of magnesium, calcium, copper, and iron in your hair. Its recommended to have a treatment every 2 1/2 months especial

McQueen is always known to bring pure drama to the catwalk with theatrical hair and makeup. This Spring Sarah Burton wanted natural hair that was very soft, touchable and more real, but this is McQueen so the hair wouldn't actually be left real. They created a tapestry-like braid by literally knitting the hair to itself with a needle and thread. "As you sew the sections back and forth and up and down, they all knot and when you pull, it becomes this subtle, woven, artisanal t
