ABOUT TODAY's EPISODE
Following up from last week's episode on the hair cuticle, today's episode focuses on all we can do to preserve the cuticle. If you want to see inches, and you have not been paying attention to the hair cuticle, then this episode is for you. I discuss why the cuticle is important, what causes damage, and steps we can take to preserve it, as long as possible. Cuticle damage will lead to exposure of the hair cortex, leading to split ends and we do not want that! Enjoy, and make sure you apply the knowledge.
