There is no question Sofia Coppola has great style. But she also has great hair! Whether she wears it short or long, straight or wavy, her hair always has a natural, healthy sheen to it. What is her secret? Dr. Hauschka Neem Hair Oil
For over forty years, Dr. Hauschka has offered a natural, holistic approach to skincare making it one of the world’s most famous and trusted organic brands. Each product is created using ingredients grown in Dr. Hauschka’s biodynamic gardens in South Germany. Biodynamics is a holistic, sustainable form of agriculture that focuses on the unique rhythmic patterns of nature. This process produces the highest quality natural ingredients without the use of synthetic additives or stabilizers creating a truly holistic skin care line. Dr. Hauschka’s goal is to activate the skin’s natural healing process and to address the underlying problems rather than masking the symptoms.
Dr. Hauschka Neem Hair Oil is ideal for all hair types and provides intensive care for chemically treated or dry, brittle hair. This restorative oil soothes irritated skin, stimulates circulation, encourages hair growth, softens dry hair, and strengthens fine hair. Hair becomes softer, more manageable, with a natural shine. Wheat germ and rosemary essential oil work together to protect and invigorate the scalp while neem leaf and chamomile extract calm and nourish the hair adding body and luster.
Having recently been taken from a level 3 to a 7 in hair color (1 being black and 10 light blonde), my stylist made me promise and pinky swear to deep condition my hair at least once a week. After doing some research on this product for IWTBAC I decided to make good on my promise and try Dr. Hauschka Neem Hair Oil as my deep conditioning treatment. Immediately after the first treatment my hair felt incredibly soft, strong, and shiny with tons of volume! Also, I absolutely love the scent! Neem oil on its own has a nutty aroma much like the smell of garlic, but I find that the herbal scents of chamomile and rosemary camouflage the intensely bitter odor, giving it a slight medicinal twist.
For a deep treatment, use Dr. Hauschka Neem Hair Oil before shampooing. Start with damp, warm hair and massage a few drops of the oil into your scalp, then comb it through your hair and wrap your head with a towel. The length of time for your treatment depends on the needs of your hair. For fine hair, leave the oil in for 20 to 30 minutes; for dry hair: leave it in for 30 to 60 minutes. Alternatively, you can leave the treatment in your hair overnight. Finish by shampooing, conditioning, and styling as normal. Enjoy your new tresses à la Sofia!
