Only You Can Prevent Gray Hair : Part 1

Age Graylessly Permanent Hair Color

The single biggest reason the process of hair coloring came about? Covering gray hair. It is still the number 1 reason the multi-billion dollar business exists, although the tide is changing.

So . . I bet many of you have wondered about the covering grays trick. . . and it IS a trick. Each haircoloring service is unique and, in the same vein, can present unique problems. Gray, white and salt & pepper hair all have characteristics that present unique coloring challenges. For instance, gray hair can turn orange if the lightener used is not processed long enough. There are a great many services I can provide here to help you cover up, enhance and (this month) to PREVENT gray. For the first time ever there is a new product that claims to prevent 50% of gray from appearing that I will make available to you, starting today. So today's post will be about this new product, I imagine when I am all done with Gray Hair instruction we will have a total of 8-9 posts, so sit back and relax, I will cover a lot.

An interesting marriage of 2 companies have produced this product, Shiseido and Joico. Now with this combo I am much more interested in the line than I was with Joico's color. I bought 4 tubes and tested all 4. Only 1 out of the 4 would I even consider using, I'm not sure who they are having make their color, but was not impressed.

Now this combo is brilliant sounding. Shiseido mainly a make-up, skin care and body products company decided to step into the world of hair, which is smart, hair products don't take much of a hit when a recession creeps up. People still adore their hair, and would rather not eat than take care of their hair ( clients have said those exact words to me numerous times !).

Instead of introduce a single new category to Shiseido they partnered with a successful hair company, JOICO, to introduce a whole new line. There are 2 main lines of shampoo/conditioner/restore... In this Post I am only going to talk about the RE:NU SERUM as it deals with PREVENTING GRAY, but there is a whole line of yummy looking products I am in the process of testing...it will take me a week or so to make my assessment & if the shampoo and conditioner and styling products turn out wonderful I will let you know.



Tracking down my "super gray" clients to give the serum to, is in order, to have a spot-on review...but I highly doubt 2 large reputable companies like this are going to make false claims, just doesn't seem likely to me. So I am going on the science I have reviewed. Joico/Shiseido has used one of my very favorite theories and one I use in fomulating THRIVEN and all my hair products as well. They now feel that "like skin" . . "hair ages" and degenerates with age...so they have used some of the science and ingredients that I used with THRIVEN... I guess that is why I am so excited about this line. The ingredients:

  • Ceramides: improves hair's radiance and resiliency; used in many expensive face creams

  • Acai Oil: restores hair silkiness & softness; this oil is full of delicious vitamins and minerals, from rain forest , many pro athletes swear by this oil for its strength building properties

  • Cashmere Proteins: strengthens hair to prevent damage

  • Orchid Extract: protects hair against environmental stresses

Re:nual Serum comes in 2 sizes and is the result of 10 years of the most advanced hair research and development, this revolutionary scalp treatment formulated by Shiseido Laboratories slows down the graying process to keep gray hair at bay and maintain hair's youthful color and texture.
Over a 5 month period: Re:nual Serum users noticed 50% less gray than Non-users. (according to Shiseido Clinical Trials).


Re:Nu AGE DEFY is the only professional hair care system scientifically proven to address and reverse the key signs of aging hair:
  • GRAYING

  • LOSS OF DENSITY

  • CHANGE IN TEXTURE

There are 2 sizes and I will take additional pictures and post....by the end of the day....This line sounds very exciting to me....I hope it performs as well as the science behind it and the ingredients IN IT... I'm sure it will.
Those of you with lots of GRAY and aged hair, this could be the biggest product to be produced for you, EVER.


BTW: This does not mean you will never have to get your hair colored again. Personally the reason I get mine colored is because the color - itself...adds so much to making it look younger. What this would be good for is buying yourself some time when you are busy or traveling or . .? Maybe not having to touch-up quite so often...... I like the anti-aging factors myself. With the ingredients that are in it, this just may be one of the most revolutionary products to come out in a long time.
