Hair Medic Monday

Pauline's hair was course and dry and had lost its lustre. She wanted to be able to cover her grey and regain her hair's youthful appearance. Michael recommended a Dream.Age makeover by Matrix to infuse moisture and create rich colour that would really pop.

Grey hair can appear at any age and is a result of loss of melanin. This is the pigment that gives your hair and skin its natural colour. With this loss of melanin also comes reduced elasticity and texture changes, often leaving you with wiry, unmanagable hair.

Grey hair is notoriously stubborn and can be quite difficult to colour. This is because the cuticle layer is very  compact, making it difficult for colour to penetrate the hair strand. In the past, this required many tedious steps and didn't guarantee absolute coverage, nor a difference in the feel and managability of the hair. Matrix has solved this problem with Dream.Age, a specially formulated colour that is far easier on the hair than previous methods, plus leaves it looking and feeling soft and bouncy. Michael assisted Pauline in selecting a colour that was both beautiful and natural looking.

Dream.Age is brand new, and while we always expect quality with Matrix, we were still stunned with the transformation in Pauline's tresses. Her hair, which had been dry and a bit dull, appeared obviously soft, supple and shiny, even before her blowdry was complete. The shimmer and lustre was truly impressive!
