Most of us experience hair fall. That could be due to any reason, such as heredity, ageing, injury, due to hormonal imbalance any reason for the matter. Sometimes the condition could get even worse at certain seasons, especially during summer.

The reason as to why we lose hair during summer is because we sweat a lot during summer, the pores on the surface of the skin spread to release sweat. Our hair becomes weak at that time and is more prone to falling off. Along with hair loss you might also experience itching and irritation on your scalp. This could make you scratch your head which could cause hair fall to get much worse.

At times, when hair care is under consideration, shampooing on a daily basis is not enough. Usually, you would want to add an extra product for everyday hair care routine, and that is conditioner. Here are a few history points on this great hair product: it was in the early 1900’s where hair conditioner first made an appearance. Thanks to a French perfume maker named Ed Pinaud, who intended his product to smoothen and soften beards and mustaches, women of today can also enjoy soft and manageable hair.

Hair conditioner is said to have been around for more than 100 years. At a World Expo that was held in Paris, France in the 1900’s, a certain perfumer and entrepreneur named Ed Pinaud showcased a new product that was intended to make mustaches and beards soft and smooth. Later on, this formulation was developed and soon used on women hair.

What does conditioner do for hair? As mentioned before, it makes unmanageable hair softer, smoother, and easier to control. But what is the mechanism behind this effect of conditioner on your lovely tresses? Before you get into the mechanism of hair conditioner, first have a look at each hair strand up close.

Your hair possesses many properties. Factors such as color, appearance, texture, and healthiness of hair can be affected by these physiological properties. Here is a concept that you should try to understand when using products to treat and care for your hair. This is known as pH, which defines how acidic or how alkaline a substance is. pH is measured across various solutions in the body, such as on your blood, your stomach acids, and even the oils and sweat produced by your scalp. With this in mind, you can already surmise that pH can also affect the overall health of your hair.
