protection
The sun can break down our hair’s cuticle. Luckily, there are plenty of products out there that you can spritz on to keep your hair healthy.
Pollution Protection
You can keep your hair protected from pollutants like dust and gasses by keeping your hair covered with a scarf or a hat. Bonus: this helps with sun protection too.

Hair Stylist
Reece Tolliver
As a Bronx native, Daryce (Reece) Tolliver is the quintessential New York gal, mom, wife, and salon owner of a 2-chair salon suite tucked into the heart of midtown. She serves as a Texture Expert and Colorist with an emphasis on proper care for optimal hair health. After almost 10 years in the beauty industry she is still committed to making each and every client feel beautiful as she prioritizes a healthy mane over following trends that may damage tresses.
An abundance of hair is certainly something to celebrate, but it can also leave you with your hands full. Dyson stylist Reece Tolliver comments,
And when it comes to styling all those locks? “Don’t go in too aggressively every day with heat,” she advises, “Waves and curls can be maintained with twists and braids overnight to maintain the integrity of your hair.” Even more importantly: “If you have long hair and it’s on your shoulders and ruffling against your sweater, that’s going to eat away at your ends,” says Reece. So tie it up!
With a head full of hair, getting ready can take a lot longer—and who has the time for that? Thankfully, Dyson hair tools can wrangle that iconic mane with less heat and more ease. Something every thick-haired-human will appreciate: The Supersonic™ hair dryer uses the powerful V9 Dyson Digital motor and Air Multiplier™ technology to multiply the air three times for fast drying. Once dry, finesse your hair with the Corrale™ styler, which uses flexing plates that shape to gather hair to limit the number of passes (and therefore heat) needed to style..
Maintaining Full And Fabulous Hair, From A Stylist

Hair That’s Full and fabulous
BIOTIN
“Some people just need some extra biotin,” says Dr. Amy Wechsler. “Biotin is a B vitamin that can be helpful for hair.” Often found in hair supplements, this nutrient supports the production of keratin (the protein that makes up our hair).
IRON
Dr. Wechsler suggests that staying on top of our iron levels is an important part of maintaining Full And Fabulous hair.
VITAMIN D
Vitamin D has a range of health benefits, one of which is preserving the health of our skin and hair. Research confirms that vitamin D is involved in the growth and differentiation of our hair follicles.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants help support our body against the aging-effects of oxidative stress. Research suggests that consuming more antioxidants likely supports the ongoing health of our hair.

Cortisol does a lot of bad things, like breaking down collagen. And what’s
hair made out of? Collagen.
Everyone’s looking for the key to full and fabulous hair, and she has some ways to find it: “it’s a combination of what we do to our hair and how we treat ourselves,” she says. But the two most important factors? Sleep and stress. With the high cortisol levels that come with it, Dr. Wechsler sees stress as an immediate threat to our hair-potential:
Like any of us, she knows the stress is real. But she also knows that sleep is our antidote to many stress symptoms. “We heal our hair, and our skin, and the inside of our bodies during sleep,” she describes. Dr. Wechsler says that breaking our stress cycles with sleep, deep breathing, getting outside, or even hanging with our girlfriends is a part of hair health. But what else?

People with a lot of hair end up being overwhelmed, so they tend to be a lot more aggressive. Move through your hair strategically by parting and sectioning off.

moisture
Healthy hair naturally maintains more moisture .With more moisture, the hair cuticle stays more intact… Allowing our hair to grow in strength and length.
healthy
scalp
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. If your hair is a full and fabulous garden, think of your scalp as the soil. A healthy scalp ensures that your hair is able to grow through the follicle without obstruction.
nutrients
Our hair growth cycle has three distinct phases: Our hair follicles grow hair, rest for a bit, and then release the hair in preparation for a new round. This cycle requires nutrients to continue, like protein, vitamins, and minerals.
