Hair health
Our hair is often considered a reflection of our overall health, and so it is essential to give it the attention it deserves.
At Royal, hair health is at the heart of our values.
All repeated actions can have a short and long-term impact on the appearance and health of the hair. So it’s better to have good hairdressing habits!
FOR HEALTHY HAIR
Hair is made up of proteins, mainly keratin. Their health depends on several factors, including genetics, environmental and our care habits.
Unfortunately, hair can become damaged quickly and takes a long time to repair.
