My hair is color processed. I have a very dry scalp in the winter. What causes this and how do I combat it quick?
Dry scalp is the immediate problem associated with excessive drying of skin. The dryness is caused by the stripping of natural oils from our body such as harsh shampoos, hard water, as well as excessive shampooing.

Dry scalp is the immediate problem associated with excessive drying of skin. The dryness is caused by the stripping of natural oils from our body such as harsh shampoos, hard water, as well as excessive shampooing.
During the winter months, we notice the dry skin flakes more, due to dry weather and the heat in your home that draws the oil from your body. Just as you would moisturize your body’s dry skin, you need to moisturize your scalp. The best remedy to treat dry scalp would be to use Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo and Conditioner. The natural oils and moisturizers act on the scalp, restore the oil content, and reverse the damage. Paul Mitchell is safe for color treated hair. Paul Mitchell also offers a Tea Tree Lemon Sage and a Lavender Mint. Lemon Sage is good for volume and Lavender Mint is good for additional moisture.

With the arrival of the New Year, my resolution is to hit the gym. What are some workout clothes that you would recommend purchasing?
I think one key for motivating yourself to begin working out, is to feel comfortable and cute while in motion. I like breathable fabrics in long pants that really conform to my body, so
a.) *I don’t get overheated and
b.) I can see my body for what it is, and have awareness, allowing me to focus on the areas I really want to work. A person doesn’t get the same effect from baggy sweatpants.
As far as style and silhouette, the big thing now is wearing fitted pants with a supportive sports bra under a tank or slim tee. If you want to really rev-up your cuteness factor, find a great track jacket to throw on over your sportswear. You could even match your track jacket to your shoes; perfectly acceptable for your ensemble, without going overboard.
If you are in you are in your 20’s, Victoria’s Secret PINK line offers some adorable sweatpants that you can definitely get away with.
Some of my favorite websites to browse workout clothes include: Adidas.com, Zobha.com, Lucy.com, Puma. com, and Nike.com Nike.com has a very cool program that will let you customize your outfIt into whatever colors you like!
*I’ve found not getting overheated and uncomfortable is key to continuing your workout
