skin and hair...........


Skin and hair

  • Shaving does not cause terminal hair to grow back thicker or coarser or darker. This belief is based on the fact that hair which has never been cut has a tapered end, whereas after cutting there is no taper. Thus, the cut hair appears to be thicker, and feels coarser due to the sharper, unworn edges. The fact that shorter hairs are "harder" (less flexible) than longer hairs also contributes to this effect.[194][195][196][197]
  • Hair and fingernails do not continue to grow after a person dies. Rather, the skin dries and shrinks away from the bases of hairs and nails, giving the appearance of growth.[198]
  • Hair care products cannot actually "repair" split ends and damaged hair. They can prevent damage from occurring in the first place, and they can also smooth down the cuticle in a glue-like fashion so that it appears repaired, and generally make hair appear in better condition.[199][200][201][202][203]
  • The redhead gene is not going extinct. In August 2007, many news organizations reported that redheads would become extinct, possibly as early as 2060, due to the gene for red hair being recessive. Although redheads may become more rare, they will not die out unless everyone who carries the gene dies or fails to reproduce.[204] This myth has been around since at least 1865, and often resurfaces in American newspapers.[205] (See also disappearing blonde gene.)

Hair tips for flat ironing

 A flat iron can help add tons of shine and polish to fine hair, too. But it’s important to remember a few key rules when flat ironing fine hair. First, instead of taking large horizontal sections, take smaller diagonal-back sections. This prevents the hair underneath from getting pinched in the flat iron and allows the hair to fall at its natural fall position. Next, take your comb in the opposite hand with the teeth facing up and take the section in your comb. As your flat iron comes in, start moving the iron before the plates are even closed all the way. Allow the comb to lead your hand and move slowly to create a nice bevel. For fine hair, make sure the hand holding the flat iron is far away from the plates for less compression. The thicker or coarser the hair, the closer you should hold your hand to the plates. Make sure you move slowly down the section; the rate of speed will determine the success of your flat ironing skills.
