Published on August 10, 2019, a thought-provoking article by Evewoman.co.ke sparked a conversation about the connection between hair health and overall well-being. The article borrowed the phrase 'I am not my hair' from India Arie's 2006 song, but applied it to a new context.
While Arie's lyrics focused on the external judgments people face due to their hair texture, the article shifted the focus to the internal message our hair can convey about our health. It's a powerful reminder that our hair is not just a cosmetic aspect, but a reflection of our lifestyle choices.
So, what does your hair say about you? Is it sparse, brittle, dry, or discolored? These signs can indicate underlying issues with your diet, sleep, stress levels, or even your hair care routine. It's time to take a closer look and ask yourself what you've been doing wrong.
Perhaps you've been neglecting your hair, exposing it to excessive heat styling, or using harsh chemicals. Or maybe you've been over-loving it, constantly changing braided hairstyles or seeking to achieve a salon-fresh look every day.
Whatever the reason, it's time to listen to your hair's whispers and make some changes. By doing so, you may just discover a healthier, happier you.
