    Why Curly Hair May Suffer More in the Fall and What you can do today with Sarah Crews - Ep. 31

    If you have noticed more hair in your brush or shower drain lately and you have wavy, curly, or coily hair, don’t panic. You are not going bald. Your hair is simply responding to seasonal changes in daylight, hormones, and humidity. But because textured hair behaves differently from straight hair, shedding can look more dramatic. In this episode, Sarah breaks down exactly why seasonal shedding hits curls harder and how you can support your hair from the inside out, so your texture stays strong, defined, and thriving all season long. 🧴 Key Products Mentioned:  Pro Products Available at https://studiogaven.com/ Kérastase Curl Manifesto Bain Hydratation DouceurKérastase Masque RéhydratantKérastase Potentialiste Scalp SerumRedken Amino-Mint Scalp ShampooRedken Acidic Bonding Concentrate MaskPureology Hydrate Shampoo & ConditionerPureology Strength Cure MaskShu Uemura Urban Moisture Mask Additional products Mentioned: Mielle Rosemary OilArgan / jojoba / grapeseed oilsHeeta Scalp BrushSatin bonnet / silk pillowcaseMicrofiber towel (Aquis)Steam capDiffuser attachmentWide-tooth detangling combNutrafol Women’s Core ✨ Final Thoughts Seasonal shedding is natural, but with the right internal support, scalp care, and hydration routine, it doesn’t have to derail your curls.
