Just received my bars last week and it was my first time using shampoo bars so I didn't really know what to expect. I have to say the shampoo was really gentle on my scalp and the conditioner bar did a really good job of detangling my hair.It came with a foaming net which made the bars super easy to use and is really handy for traveling. I have wavy, colour treated hair which usually tends to be on the dry side, but not anymore! For now my hair feels smooth and moisturised so I think I'll stick with the bars and continue to observe the results. :)

I've got 4C Afro hair and most shampoos are way too harsh. But these bars? So gentle and nourishing on my coils. The conditioner bar melted right through my kinks for easy detangling. And my curls were bouncy and defined after, not dried out. I'm telling you, my hair was happy! The shampoo cleaned without stripping and the conditioner had that good slip. These bars are a win for 4C naturals needing gentle care. My coils love them so these bars are sticking around!

I was impressed with the speed of delivery, I received the shampoo and conditioner. I am very happy with this ecological choice, the ingredients are of the highest quality. I had a lot of dandruff and often the products in the pharmacy made my hair dry, since I have been using this shampoo my hair is clean, thick and shiny. The conditioner makes the hair very easy to comb, nourishes it but leaves it clean and light. I'm very satisfied, my hair changed in 13 days, and I used this product just tree times, that's impressive.

Yao shampoo bar is amazing. I have many issues with my hair (thin, dyed) and very sensitive scalp. This shampoo makes hair look shiny and healthy and it's really kind with your skin (I've also tested as a face cleanser!). My daughter, who as long, thick, oily hair, is really satisfied too and she replaced all of her products with the bar. It'm my third purchase and customer service is just lovely as their product. People in Yao staff are very kind and shipping is super fast.

I've been using Yao Secret bars for a couple of weeks now and I'm pretty impressed with my results so far! I have medium-length combination hair that tends to get oily at the roots and dry at the ends since I colour it often. Since switching to the bars I feel like my scalp is more balanced, it feels moisturized, but neither too dry nor too oily. I wish I hadn't put off using bars for so long, they're actually much simpler to use than I thought they would be, plus it's helping me fulfil my resolution to become more sustainable.

I'm delighted to share my experience with the solid bar shampoo! What truly impressed me was how amazing it worked on my hair. Not only did it leave my hair soft and shiny, but it also felt incredibly nourished and healthy. The convenience of using a solid bar was a game-changer for me, and I appreciate the eco-friendly approach it offers. Overall, I'm truly thrilled with the results and can confidently say that this product has become an essential part of my hair care routine.

The delivery was super quick within 3-4 days I already got the package.I'm using the bars for almost a month now and they are working really well for my hair I really love them my hair feels so nice and soft, I was searching for a liquid shampoo alternative a and I am really happy that I found these. At first you kinda need to get used to the bar because its obviously very different than liquid shampoo but once you have the hang of it its pretty simple. I would really recommend buying them and I will definitely stick to these from now on.

Was gifted a set of the shampoo and conditioner bar from a friend who's a fan. Was quite skeptical but seeing her hair getting smoother and shinier got me curious about them. This is my first time using a shampoo bar and I must say it does take a while getting used to. The results - exactly what I was told! My hair is considered frizzy and after using the bars for a week I can feel my hair getting smoother and become more manageable. I also like the very mild nature scent of the bar - very refreshing and rejuvenating. Go green products! I actually think I might be a convert now LOL.

The shampoo and conditioner are making my hair flawless! They make my hair feel better, silkier and stronger just after one use. Definitely beats any other products have tried. My order also got stuck during the delivery but they sent me a new one. Totally recommend!

I'm really happy I discovered Yao Secret. I do think it is a bit expensive, for a student's budget especially, but so far I've had great results from the shampoo and conditioner bar. The conditioner one is a little bit more difficult to use because I find only a little product seems to come off when you rub it between your hands with warm water, and it quickly crumbles. However my hair becomes really clean, soft and shiny so I love them nonetheless. I also really love the idea of supporting such a local small business, with a beautiful cultural tradition.

Seasonal Hair Loss: How to Deal With Autumn Shedding

October 14, 2022 3 min read

Losing a few hairs here and there from time to time is normal; we lose between 50 to 100 strands of hair daily as our hair goes through different stages of growth, there is the active growth stage, the maturation stage, and the shedding off stage. Losing a bit of hair periodically is normal, but when it becomes too much, up to the point where it’s very noticeable and starts to bother you, then something else is at play. It could be seasonal hair loss or alopecia. In this article, we’ll shed some light on why there is a high possibility of hair loss in autumn compared to other seasons. We’ll also give some tips that can help you make your hair stronger so you’ll experience minimal hair loss during this season.

Autumn Shedding

We usually shed some of our hair daily, around 100 hairs a day, but there is a possibility for this number to increase to around 150 in Autumn. There isn’t enough scientific research that has explored why we lose more hair in fall compared to other months of the year, but we all agree it happens. A good way to get some understanding of seasonal hair loss is by gaining knowledge about the phases through which hair grows.

There are four phases in the hair growth cycle:

Anagen:

90% of hair is actively growing.

Catagen:

Also known as the transition phase, hair growth slows and hair follicles shrink.

Telogen:

10% of hair is in the resting stage.

Exogen:

Hair is shed from the scalp and new hairs start growing in the follicles. The telogen (resting) phase usually coincides with summer and progresses to the exogen (shedding) stage through Autumn. It can also be argued that the scalp holds on strongly to hair strands during the summer months to provide protection from the sun and then starts to loosen its grip as the temperature gradually drops in Autumn. The change in temperature during Autumn can also trigger the scalp and follicles to enter the shedding phase.

Seasonal Hair Loss Vs Telogen Effluvium

Noticing more hair strands in your brush or in your shower drain during a particular time of the year should not be confused with telogen effluvium, hair loss induced by stress. Seasonal hair loss and telogen effluvium are both characterized by hair loss, but it is very important to pay close attention to how much hair is being lost and for how long so that serious problems can be caught early on. It is hard to tell the difference yourself. The best way to go is to visit a professional if you think the amount of hair you’re losing is worrying or alarming.

Seasonal Hair Loss Is Temporary

It is understandable to feel a little bit of panic when you notice more hair in your brush than normal during this time of year. But there is nothing to worry about, seasonal hair loss is temporary, it’s just your hair going through its cycles, and your hair will stabilize after a while.

Preventing and Managing Seasonal Hair Loss

The health of your scalp and the state of your health generally can be a big factor in seasonal hair loss. You can be susceptible to more hair loss during Autumn if you’re not deliberately working at keeping your hair and scalp as healthy as possible. Going the extra mile when it comes to paying attention to your health can reduce the occurrence and severity of seasonal hair loss.

Listed below are some ways to prevent your hair from shedding and maintaining a healthy scalp and hair:

Eat A Balanced Diet

The quality of the food you eat plays a very important role in the health of your hair and scalp. A fundamental and effective way to protect yourself from seasonal hair loss is to develop the habit of eating a balanced diet all year round.

Protect Your Hair

Protecting your hair from stressors like dust, sun, pollution, and rainwater will save your hair a lot of trouble. When heading out make sure to always prioritize the protection of your hair.

Use A Conditioner

Using a hydrating conditioner will help keep your hair strong and healthy. Deep conditioning treatments are also a great option to maintain a healthy scalp and hair.

Regularly Trim Your Hair

Regularly trimming off split ends can be a great way to reduce the susceptibility of your hair to seasonal hair loss.
