The connection between our menstrual cycle and hair health is a fascinating topic thatâs often overlooked.
Hormonal fluctuations donât just affect our mood and physical well-beingâthey also have a significant impact on the health and appearance of our hair.
At Luxeny, we believe that understanding this connection can empower you to adapt your hair care routine and make the most of every phase of your cycle. âšÂ 
The Science Behind the Change đ§Ź
During the menstrual cycle, estrogen and progesterone levels fluctuate, affecting hair health in various ways.
At the start of the cycle, during the follicular phase, rising estrogen levels can make your hair feel healthier, stronger, and shinier.
This is the time when your hair can look its best, so make the most of it!
However, as we approach menstruation and enter the luteal phase, estrogen levels drop and progesterone takes over, which can lead to weaker, less manageable hair and, for some, increased hair shedding.
Adapting Your Hair Care Routine đââïž
-
Follicular Phase (Day 1â14): Take advantage of high estrogen levels. This is a great time for haircuts or more intensive treatments. Products like Luxenyâs Hair Power can boost your hairâs natural shine and strength during this phase.
-
Ovulation (Day 14-16): Your hair may look especially full and vibrant. Stick to a balanced routine and consider hairstyles that highlight your hairâs natural volume.
-
Luteal Phase (Day 15â28): As estrogen levels drop, add more hydration to your routine. Luxenyâs Biphasic Spray is perfect for keeping your hair hydrated and manageable, helping to fight dryness and frizz.
-
Menstruation: During this time, your body and hair may feel less energetic. Choose gentle treatments and minimize heat use. Itâs an ideal time for nourishing masks and letting your hair rest.
General Tips for Every Phase đ
- Maintain a Balanced Diet: Essential nutrients are key for healthy hair at every stage of its cycle.
- Hydration: Drinking enough water contributes to a healthy scalp and, in turn, strong hair.
- Regular Exercise: Physical activity can improve circulation, which benefits hair growth.
