 Spokes in a Wheel

First of all, thank you for choosing natural ways to achieve truly luxurious hair and good health.

Cutting one's hair is one of the spokes in a wheel. Haircutting is seasonal. The shortest cut of the year is during the spring, keeping hair short for the summer and fall as long as the weather holds out. When it gets cold one can let the hair grow longer for protection from the cold.

For men : Cut hair every four to six weeks. The top of the head can be kept as short as possible, i.e. from one inch above the ears and above as short as possible. And from the tip of the ear below any length that is comfortable. This is due to the sebaceous glands (oil glands) that are very thin on the top of the head.

For women: Cutting hair can be done seasonally, once per season: Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Fall Equinox, and Winter Solstice. Use a blunt snip-cut technique when the hair is wet. Blunt cut the ends only, making sure the ends are as blunt and thick as possible.

See our Lunar Chart for more information.

Seasonal cutting is a spoke in the wheel to address hair loss or for simply growing and maintaining truly luxurious hair. Every spoke helps the hair and scalp to become thicker, stronger, and healthier.

Use the 5 Elements Hair Care Products - another spoke. Alternate each shampoo daily and do the same with our mist conditioners. Weekly, use Euro Organic Oil overnight and/or leave in all day. This is an age-old process and very effective for all types of hair.

Proper brushing is another spoke in the wheel. See our article on correct brushing techniques. We recommend using only Morrocco Method brushes. Daily use of the scalp massager is also a very good habit. We recommend using it in the shower after shampooing and then following through using it on the entire body for stimulation. You can keep one by the computer, desk, and the car for stressful driving conditions - any place one needs stimulation and relaxation. As we are all creatures of habit, it's best to set good habits daily and then therein, automatically, so one does them daily and effectively.

Diet, another spoke, is quite simple. Eat live food and produce live cells or eat dead food and produce dead cells. Hair and skin are pure protein, so the diet needs to contain live, healthy, protein-based foods.

Another spoke is exercise. Any exercise to stimulate the blood and airflow is excellent, such as walking, yoga, chi-gong, tai-chi or simply going to the gym or joining an exercise class. Only thirty minutes per day can be beneficial.

Positive attitude is another spoke. Not wasting energy on past history. Not dwelling on any past hair problems. Being very positive and direct in the here and now. Taking care of one's daily habits.

Please keep us updated on your progress. And thanks for going truly natural and simply pure.

Wishing you great health and hair.
