This week I wanted to share something a little personal with you guys, which I never usually do, but hopefully some of you can relate. Earlier this year was extremely tough for me, physically and emotionally. I was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata. For those of you who don’t know, it is an autoimmune disease and a type of hair loss that mistakenly attacks your hair follicles. Seeing that my job is to be in front of the camera constantly, my confidence was at an all time low. I didn't want to take photos, as the look and feel of my hair was nothing like I was used to.
Luckily enough the patches of hair that was lost were underneath my head just below my neck hair line. Alopecia cannot be cured, but can definitely be treated, and my hair is finally starting to grow back - slowly but surely! I tried almost everything and anything from steroid shots, oils, creams and hair treatments. What I really needed was to find a really amazing product to use on a weekly basis that was gentle on my scalp and delicate hair.
Being a long time L’Oréal customer, I am so happy to have been introduced to the L’Oréal Paris EverCrème hair care line. 100% vegan, sulphate free, paraben free and rich in Apricot oils, it gently cleanses dry and brittle hair to replenish nourishment and deeply moisturize for that silky soft texture and healthy shine!
Once a week I like to give my hair a little extra love with renourishing butter that can be used to revive lifeless hair to restore its natural radiance.
After just 3 weeks of use I have noticed a huge difference in the look and feel of my brittle hair. Not to mention that the products are made with natural ingredients AND smell delicious !
I would highly recommended the L’Oréal Paris EverCrème for your everyday haircare. You can find it HERE
I hope my story can inspire some of you to use the right products!
