Hair health is often forgotten about by parents until it falters. Like teeth, good hair-health habits practised early can actually have benefits later in life. With around 65% of all adults suffering hair loss at some point in their future, good practice set in place now can help minimise the extent of hair damage and hair loss as children grow older.
One of the biggest hair-health issues to affect most children during their school career is an infection by head lice. Though we cannot completely prevent head lice, we can minimise the number of children affected and reduce the outbreak in our schools. Early education helps lessen the anxiety or embarrassment parents can feel when they discover their child has head lice.
How Hairplus can help. We offer a FREE Healthy Hair talk to parents and teachers about treatment and control of nits, healthy hair habits and how to identify other hair and scalp conditions in children. We also cover hair health and chlorine and how and when to use organic hair products. The talk will be fun and interactive and we can include a session on hair styling for dance for children with longer hair.
