TELETIMES

Folic acid is the synthetic form of Vitamin B9 (also called folate when it is found in foods) and is a crucial vitamin for healthy hair given its role in DNA synthesis and production of new cells in the body.  This includes keratin cells, the building blocks of your hair.  In addition to folic acid being healthy for your hair, it aids your body with fighting cancer (and avoiding hair loss due to chemotherapy during treatment), not to mention keeping your skin firm.

No, whether you have red, brown, or blonde hair, sun bleaching will damage your hair by destroying the melanin and leading to protein loss and split ends (source). Melanin not only provides the color to your hair, it also helps protect your hair (and your skin) from damage caused by UV rays, especially at the lower wavelengths. 

As the sun shines down, it burns off the melanin in your body, but because your hair does not have any live cells, it cannot produce any more. This is why the sun can bleach your hair lighter while your skin gets darker. Your skin reacts to the UV rays and produces extra melanin, giving you a glowing tan.

Very much like the famous Birkin Bag by Hermès, Birkin bangs are a style of fringe bangs that were made famous in the 1960’s by French fashion legend Jane Birkin.  And that is how they got their namesake. Because Birkin bangs can go retro, grunge, or high fashion, and can be styled at multiple hair lengths, this is a style of blunt bangs that has never gone out of fashion, so now is the right time to give them a try.

By choosing a high quality product and making sure you adhere to proper grooming techniques, like washing your hair at the right frequency, you can still get the extra shine, anti-frizz, and moisturizing benefits of hair oil without making your hair look greasy or get weighed down.

The chignon bun is a low bun style made famous as it is a traditional go-to wedding hairstyle for brides.  But weddings aren’t the only time a chignon bun works. And unlike a traditional hair bun, the chignon does not need a hair tie or band. 

The chignon bun is unique in that it can be wrapped around itself, a hair pin, or other hair accessories without relying on a hair tie.  That's what makes it different from the standard low bun.  The only requirement is that your hair is roughly shoulder length.
