The Hair Health Formula: Repair, Rehydrate, Seal for Every Strand

💡 How to Tell What Your Hair Really Needs

Your hair talks — it tells you when it’s tired, thirsty, or overworked. The secret to healthy, shiny, resilient hair isn’t guessing; it’s understanding what your strands are asking for.

Think of your routine in three key layers — repair, rehydrate, and seal — the same order your hair needs care applied.

💔 Damaged Hair – Rebuild Strength with Keratin & Amino Acids

How it feels: Snaps easily, tangles, looks dull or frayed at the ends.What’s happening: The inner structure (keratin bonds) is weakened from colour, heat, or chemical treatments.

How to help:

• Start your routine with a rebuilding treatment like Wella Ultimate Repair to restore protein and strength.

• Use keratin- and amino-acid–based masks weekly to repair internal damage.

• Always use a heat protectant (like Wella EIMI Thermal Image) before styling to prevent further breakage.

• Keep ends tidy with regular trims — prevention is easier than repair.

  
  

💦 Dehydrated Hair – Replenish with Moisture & Water

How it feels: Limp, dull, or flat, lacking bounce or elasticity.What’s happening: Your hair has lost its internal hydration — it needs moisture, not oil.

How to help:

• After strengthening, follow with a hydrating shampoo and mask (try Wella Elements Renewing range).

• Choose formulas containing glycerin, aloe vera, or hyaluronic acid to draw in water.

• For curls and coils, add a co-wash or hydration mist between washes.

• Stay hydrated internally — water and vitamins support scalp health and hair elasticity.

  
  

🌿 Dry Hair – Nourish & Lock It All In

How it feels: Frizzy, rough, or lacking shine.What’s happening: Your hair isn’t retaining its natural oils, often from overwashing or high porosity.

How to help:

• Finish every routine with a light oil or serum to seal in moisture (argan, jojoba, or castor oil).

• Avoid daily washing — let your natural oils protect the hair cuticle.

• Sleep on a silk pillowcase or bonnet to reduce friction and preserve softness overnight.

  
  

✨ The Hair Health Checklist: What Every Strand Needs

Every healthy head of hair relies on these key building blocks:

• A balanced scalp – the root of healthy growth

• Keratin & amino acids – to rebuild structure

• Water & moisture – for softness and flexibility

• Oils – to seal, smooth, and protect the surface

When these layers work together — repair, rehydrate, and seal — your hair feels strong, soft, and glossy from root to tip.
