So we are going to see together what an oily hair is and what care to use!

Some information about the hair ...

Did you know that we have close to 100,000 to 150,000 hairs implanted on our skulls? Each hair is built by a root also called hair bulb and a hair shaft, the latter being the hair itself. Our hair is mainly formed by keratin and some melanin, pigment providing color. Our hair grows according to three phases : anagen, catagen and telogen. This process allows the multiplication of cells present in the bulb allowing the growth of the stem.
