Why it matters

Repair happens overnight. Here is how to help it along.

Small, consistent habits make the biggest difference. Start with one change, keep it for a few weeks and notice how your skin and hair respond before adding the next.

How to start

  • Keep what already works for you.
  • Introduce one new product or step at a time.
  • Give it four weeks before you judge the result.

The bottom line

There is no single right routine. The best one is the routine you enjoy enough to keep.
