After the summer : adopt the right routine

After a summer spent in the sun, by the water or the pool, hair and skin have been heavily stressed. It's time to return to good habits by establishing a beauty ritual suited to our hair type and the condition of our scalp. Experts from the Leonor Greyl Institute advise us to use more hydrating and, above all, reparative products. They explain which treatments to use to regain beautiful hair.

If our hair is dry, which product do you recommend ?

Cathy : « To restore beautiful hair texture, apply L’Huile de Leonor Greyl before each shampoo. This oil is both reparative and protective. Its exotic fragrance reminds us of holidays, even when they are over. Apply one to two caps of the oil on dry length and ends, then detangle with a boar bristle brush to evenly distribute and allow the treatment to penetrate. »

If our hair is literally dried out ?

Sylvie : "It is recommended to apply a mask to the length and ends to deeply hydrate them and restore their suppleness. Leonor Greyl has always advocated applying masks to dry hair before shampoo. This technique promotes better absorption of the treatment since the hair is not saturated with water. Better absorption also means more effective retention of the benefits. 

Just choose the mask that best suits your needs : the Masque Fleurs de Jasmin for fine hair, the Masque à l’Orchidée for thick hair, or the Masque Quintessence for particularly weakened hair. Leave the mask on for a maximum of fifteen minutes before applying the shampoo suitable for your hair type.”

What is the most suitable shampoo for after vacation ?

Maylis : « Choose your shampoo based on your scalp condition, not the state of your length and ends. Ideally, alternate between a very gentle shampoo used during the summer and another depending on the condition of your scalp. If it is irritated, choose Bain Traitant à la Propolis, and if your scalp tends to get oily quickly with limp hair, alternate with Bain Volumateur aux Algues. »

If our color has lost its shine due to the sun, which products should we apply ?

Cathy : « Apply Soin Repigmentant, which combines both caring ingredients and pigments. Through regular use, all hair shades, whether natural or not, are enhanced and their intensity prolonged. The hair fiber is hydrated, coated, and strengthened. Apply to washed and towel-dried hair every two to three shampoos to extend the color's durability. Leave on for three minutes and rinse thoroughly. »

If our scalp is irritated, what is the appropriate ritual ?

Sylvie : « Apply the Crème aux Fleurs, a treatment composed of gentle cleansing agents and a blend of soothing plants that provide a sense of well-being to sensitive scalps. It also helps soften and hydrate even the driest hair. Functioning as both a shampoo and deep conditioner, the Crème aux Fleursis applied to dry hair. This trend is currently popular on the market but has always been a part of Leonor Greyl's offerings. Gently massage the scalp and leave it on for 10 to 20 minutes. Before rinsing, add a little more product to the roots, then gradually emulsify with small amounts of water. »
