Inner strength for beautiful hair
Curly or straight, blond or brown, long or short – hair is seen as a symbol of beauty, particularly for women. It is expected to be glossy and strong, as shine and volume are considered signs of good health and attractiveness. Hair is also an expression of personal character and underlines individual style.

A good head of hair
There are around 80,000 to 150,000 individual hairs on the human head. Genetics are responsible for characteristics such as colour and quantity, for example. People with blond hair have the largest number of hairs, with a total of 150,000, whereas dark-haired people have about 100,000 and red-haired people 80,000 hairs. Hair density ranges between 200 and 600 hairs per square centimetre. Assuming hair is healthy, it grows about one centimetre per month and can live for up to six years. Every day we lose 70-100 hairs that are replaced by new hairs in a continual cycle.
Shining performance for healthy hair
Each healthy hair has a characteristic growth cycle with three consecutive phases: the growth phase (anagen phase), the transitional phase (catagen phase) and the resting phase (telogen phase). The new cycle then begins with the development of a new hair.
The supply of nutrients received by the hair root needs to be especially good for this impressive achievement.
