Dull hair

Why does hair become dull and lackluster?

Dull hair can be caused by various factors that affect the hair structure and the hair's natural protective film. The most common causes include:

• Chemical treatments: repeated hair coloring, perming or straightening that damage the hair cuticle.
• Environmental influences: dry indoor climate, intense stress, UV radiation, and calcareous water, which dry out the hair structure.
• Aggressive surfactants in shampoos: Many shampoos, including natural cosmetics, contain highly degreasing surfactants that dry out the scalp and hair and take away the hair's shine and suppleness.
• Malnutrition: A diet lacking in fresh, vitamin-rich foods can negatively affect hair health and make it appear dull.

How to revive dull hair?

To restore hair's natural shine and suppleness, gentle, moisturizing products and targeted care routines are crucial.

• Gentle cleansing with natural surfactants
  Organic shampoos that use gentle plant-based surfactants clean the hair gently without damaging the natural protective film. The myrto organic shampoos use detergent amino acids in the highest concentration to strengthen the hair fiber and make it more resilient and elastic. The myrto Sea Buckthorn Chia Organic Shampoo, specially developed for dull hair, contains moisturizing chia seed extract and vitamin-rich sea buckthorn pulp oil, which ensures natural shine.
• Leave-in care for radiant suppleness
  A light conditioner can detangle dull hair and make the hair structure smoother. The myrto Organic Hemp Repair Conditioner is ideal for dull hair as it is applied to the lengths and ends and makes the hair easier to comb and shinier. For more intensive care, the Organic Hair Mask Pomegranate is suitable, which offers nourishing ingredients and regenerates the hair.
• Heat protection and styling without weighing down
  The myrto Bio Finisher Glossing Gel is a light, non-weighty leave-in treatment that moisturizes the hair and helps to restore shine, especially in dry, dull hair. It can be used as a heat protector in damp hair and refreshes dry hair while defining the structure and nourishing wavy hair. In addition, the Bio Argan Hair Wax is ideal for flexible hold and natural sun protection to support shine and structure.

Tips for preventing dull hair

• Nourishing hair oil against frizz and split ends
  A good hair oil works deeply, moisturizes and protects against static. The myrto Antistatic Hair Oil is ideal for intensively caring for stressed hair and restoring its shine.
• gentle styling routine
  Intense heat exposure and mechanical stress caused by brushing too often weaken hair in the long term and contribute to frizz and breakage. It is best to use a wide-toothed comb and let the hair air dry if possible to give it time to regenerate.

Nutrition for healthy, shiny hair

A balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals is the basis for healthy hair. Biotin, zinc and iron in particular are essential for the hair structure and the body's own sebum production, which gives the hair a natural shine.

By combining these targeted care products and a mindful routine, dull hair can regain vitality and shine with health.
