Haircare - by Anabel Kingsley (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Our hair can have a huge impact on our self-esteem and sense of self. A bad hair day, a hair cut gone wrong, or a botched colour job can all leave us in tears. For those experiencing hair loss, it can have a devastating effect - wiping out confidence and causing social withdrawal. Hair might technically be a dead tissue, but it's such an integral part of who we are. How we style our hair expresses our individuality and beliefs. We use hair to flirt, and even to reflect our mood (hands up if you radically changed your hair colour or style after a break-up).

Everyone cares about their hair. They just often don't know how to care for it properly. And companies/influencers often take advantage of this vulnerability by spreading a myriad of misinformation regarding hair and scalp. This book will debunk, demystify and cut through the vast bog of balderdash that circulates online. Anabel will draw on her expertise as a trichologist, but will also bring in other expert voices to ensure that the content is as science-backed and inclusive as possible, and celebrates different hair types.

Accessible and no-nonsense, Haircare will be the ultimate, holistic guide to maintaining healthy hair and scalp.
