Redken For Men: Hair 101

Keeping a healthy head of hair starts with understanding the basics. This section will teach you how hair is strengthened and maintained.

Hair Anatomy
You know whenever you dine on a thick, juicy steak it's all about the protein. But did you know your hair is all about the protein too? Hair is comprised mainly of a non-living protein called keratin, which contains five elements: carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen and sulfur. As you take on the day, your hair loses essential elements that provide strength and energy. Redken For Men products help you to refuel your hair with protein to strengthen, carbs to energize, and extra supplements to thicken, moisturize, and bring back vitality.

Hungry, Hungry Hair
Feed your hair like you feed your stomach - the healthier the better! Fresh fruits and veggies, grains and protein, too are beneficial to your hair. Be sure to also try foods rich in biotin, like brown rice and green peas. Consider adding vitamins to your diet as well. Your hair requires amino acids and b-group vitamins, so check with your local pharmacist or health food store. Your stylist may even have suggestions.
