| BEFORE using products |
Over the past few weeks there have
been many, many discussions, postings, phone calls and serious questions about
Santa Claus beards, as Santa Claus thinks about preparing his beard for the upcoming
holiday season.
One of the greatest blessings of my
career in working with and training Professional Santas over the past 29 years,
has been that I get talk to the most wonderful Santas every single day! Beards
have been a source of major concern and discussion. There is so much to say
that this will be a three part article. Be sure to check back for the
additional information on bleachings, avoiding the yellow, proper use of purple
bluing, better shampoos, food stainings, stopping breakage, growing your beard
faster and fuller and maintaining the best Santa Claus beard ever!
Understanding your hair is the first
key…THE BASIC SCIENCE OF YOUR HAIR:
Blondes have the most hairs on their
heads, then black/brown hair colors. Redheads have the least number of hair on
their head. Blondes usually have finer/ thinner hair strands. Brown/black hair
is usually the thickest hair strands, containing a medula. Thick hair is harder
to bleach and tends to be more brittle and break more often.
A single strand of hair has 3
layers: The medula is the inner core of thick hair, covered by the cortex
which hold the color, creates the texture and gives the hair strength. The
outer layer, the cuticle, is thin and colorless, but provides protection
for the hair. Bleaching your Santa beard can seriously compromise the
structure of your hair.
Hair grows from the follicle,
using the blood circulation to supply nutrients to the base of
the follicle (dermal Papilla). Poor nutrition or digestion, lack of hydration
and/or poor circulation can quickly lead to poor follicle performance, loss of
hair, slow growth and production of weak hair that breaks easily.
Every healthy head has between
100,000 and 150,000 hairs on it. Each hair follicle “cycle” lasts 2-7 years.
When the hair follicle goes into the ”resting phase,” your hair strand will
fall out, giving the follicle time to rest. This is natural and healthy. Most
people lose 50-100 hairs a day. 10% of our hair follicles are in the resting
period while 90% remain actively growing hair. After the rest period, a new
hair strand is generated. Average hair grows at the rate of approximately 1/2
inch per month.
Diet and a specific balance of
absorbable vitamins provide our system with the
nutrients the hair follicles need to grow healthy, strong hair at the average
or faster rate. Protein, (3 servings a day, portion size should be equal to the
palm of your hand), iron, Vitamins C and E, silica (found in; skin from potatoes
and cucumbers, peppers (red and green), bean sprouts, brown rice, onions,
cabbage, oats, asparagus, lettuce, strawberry, cauliflower), Omega Fatty Acids
(fish, flax…), iodine (as found in kelp), calcium from dairy, minerals like
copper and zinc, as well as drinking lots of pure, room temperature water are
the critical ingested nutrients for hair growth.
Caffeine in coffee, teas, sodas will
quickly dehydrate your system.
Divide your body weight by two. This is the number of ounces of pure water that
a healthy, normal body needs daily. If you work out, you need to add 16- 24
more ounces! Check with your doctor before making any serious changes to
your current diet.
Krill Oil with Omega 3-6-9 Mega Marine is the best fatty acid you can
take. I gave up giving my horses expensive hoof feed supplements ($80 per
month) and switched over to Omega 3-6-9, for people. ($35 per month.) I get
healthier horses with great shiny coats, long manes and tails and hoof growth
that amazes my farrier. Omega Fatty Acids have multiple health benefits beyond
great hair.
Cheap vitamins have a molecular
structure that is too large to be absorbable into your system or usable by your
cells. You will want to use a more effective and efficient nano supplement.
About 2 years ago, I started taking a special patented vitamin complex that is
100% absorbable, and designed solely for follicle nutrition. Within 3 months,
after taking 2 pills daily, my hair was growing almost 1 inch a month! My
eyelashes were longer and nails were stronger. I was constantly clipping my
toenails. (TMI, I know, sorry! But that’s how I KNOW the supplement really
works!) My cost: less than $ 15 a month. It worked so well that many of my
Santas are now using the supplement with great success. Here is a pic of me before I cropped the hair to donate to a cancer patient....

The best meats and vegetables are
organic, as they do not include the chemicals, they are not irradiated for
years of shelf life, and are not GMO’s (genetically modified organism).
Organic fruits and vegetables are labeled with stickers that start with “9″.
They may cost a bit more but they still have ALL their nutrients in them.
Why pay for food with no nurtrients? You’ll just be paying medical bills with
few pennies you saved!
