I. Understanding the basics to achieve shiny and supple hair

1. Importance of nutrition

Hair, much more than a simple aesthetic asset, is a barometer of our overall health and well-being. Properly nourished hair reflects a balanced diet and appropriate hair care


When well nourished, the hair is more resistant to external aggressions, whether it be heat, chemicals, or environmental factors such as the sun and pollution. 

It is less likely to break, split, or become dull. Additionally, well-nourished hair is elastic, shiny, and soft to the touch, making styling easier and reflecting a healthy appearance. 


In short, nourishing your hair is not just a cosmetic approach, but also an affirmation of well-being and health

2. Dietary supplements VS hair care products: Why prefer supplements

Dietary supplements and traditional hair care products have fundamentally different approaches to treating hair health and achieving shiny and supple hair


Classic hair products, such as shampoos, conditioners, and masks, mainly act on the surface to clean, hydrate, and protect the hair from external aggressions. They provide immediate care and often visible short-term results. In contrast, dietary supplements are designed to nourish the hair from within. They supply vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients directly to the hair root, where growth begins. This approach aims to address hair problems at the source, ensuring lasting hair health and healthy growth.


White hair or colored hair, fine hair or thick hair, short hair or long hair?

D-LAB presents its range of hair dietary supplements designed and developed to meet all hair types as well as all their issues.

II. Keys to achieving shiny and supple hair:

1. Essential nutrients

Biotin (Vitamin B8): Its role

Biotin, also known as vitamin B8, is often nicknamed the "beauty vitamin" due to its beneficial effects on the skin, nails, and especially hair. It plays a central role in the production of energy from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, which is crucial for the health of hair follicles. Hair is mainly composed of keratin, a protein, and biotin is essential for the production of this keratin. Additionally, it contributes to scalp health by helping to maintain good blood circulation, providing oxygen and nutrients to the hair follicles, thereby promoting their growth.


Discover our Hydra-Capillary Complex, a formula specially designed for dry, kinky, curly hair that is weakened and lifeless. 

Enriched with essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, this ultra-complete formula with safflower oil and argan oil hydrates and nourishes the hair deeply from the root to strengthen its structure and protect it from dehydration and external aggressions.

Zinc: Its importance

Zinc is an essential trace element that plays a fundamental role in many biological functions, including hair growth and development. For the scalp and hair, zinc is crucial in several ways. First, it contributes to protein synthesis, and since hair is mainly made up of keratin, a protein, an adequate amount of zinc is essential to maintain the structure and strength of the hair. 


Secondly, zinc plays a key role in cell division. Hair follicles are among the fastest-growing tissues in the human body, and an adequate supply of zinc is necessary to support this rapid and regular growth.


Our Absolu de Zinc contains a powerful dose of zinc, a trace mineral essential to more than 200 metabolic reactions, combined with B vitamins to enhance its effectiveness on skin beauty and health as well as hair growth and development. Micro-encapsulated, it is perfectly absorbed by the body.

B group vitamins: Their contribution

B vitamins play an essential role in the health and beauty of hair. These nutrients promote the growth of strong and shiny hair. Biotin is particularly recognized for its strengthening properties, while niacin improves blood circulation in the scalp, providing oxygen and essential nutrients to the hair roots. 


Vitamin B6, for its part, plays a role in preventing hair loss. A deficiency in these vitamins can lead to slowed hair growth, increased fragility, and even hair loss. It is therefore crucial to ensure an adequate intake of these vitamins to maintain healthy and shiny hair.


In order to stimulate hair growth and nourish the supposedly hair follicle, the Growth Complex will provide a powerful cocktail of active ingredients that themselves constitute keratin. The rocket extract will stimulate the activity of the hair follicle to regain long hair.


Omega-3 fatty acids: Their role

Indeed, omega-3 fatty acids hydrate the scalp, thus preventing dryness and itching. Moreover, a diet rich in omega-3 can give hair a more shiny appearance by strengthening the cell membrane of hair follicles, which better retains the natural moisture of the hair. 


Thus, well-hydrated hair reflects light better, making it shinier and more radiant. Adopting a diet rich in omega-3 is therefore a step towards radiant and healthy hair.


Our Absolu Omega 3 is a plant-based and innovative formula that provides a high dose of omega-3 derived from microalgae.

Keratin for shiny and supple hair

Keratin is a fibrous protein that constitutes the main component of hair, nails, and the epidermis. At the heart of the hair structure, keratin gives hair its strength and elasticity.

By forming a series of chemical bonds, it protects the hair from external aggressions, whether mechanical, thermal, or chemical. Over time or due to aggressive hair treatments, keratin can degrade, making hair fragile and brittle.


Absolu de Kératine will truly revive the most demanding hair, damaged, tired, overworked hair. This treatment provides a high dose of natural keratin that will fill the gaps in the hair fiber, give structure, and sustainably increase volume.


The keratin selected by D-LAB is both pure, natural, and of very high quality; its effectiveness is proven through a clinical study. With just one capsule per day, it acts at the core of the follicle like a true cement and can significantly reduce hair loss, as well as promote regrowth.

This is what is called in clinical study increasing the anagen phase.

2. Some tips

Here are some tips to get shiny and supple hair all year round.


The secrets to having beautiful hair

To achieve supple hair, it is essential to maintain adequate hydration and use products that deeply nourish. Natural oils like argan oil and coconut oil are particularly effective in softening hair and improving its elasticity. Nutrient-rich hair masks can also help restore hair suppleness by nourishing it from within.


What makes hair shiny?

The shine of hair is often the result of a smooth and well-closed hair cuticle. Keratin-based treatments, serums, and hair oils can help smooth the cuticle and reflect light, thus giving the hair a shiny appearance. A diet rich in vitamins and minerals, as well as the use of high-quality hair products, also contribute to hair shine.


What makes hair supple?

The suppleness of hair depends on its hydration and elasticity. Essential fatty acids, such as omega-3, play a crucial role in hair hydration. Proteins, like keratin, strengthen the hair structure and improve elasticity. Regular use of moisturizing masks and nourishing treatments can also help maintain hair suppleness.

III. The causes of lack of shine and suppleness

1. Internal and external factors affecting brightness and flexibility

The lack of shine and suppleness in hair can be attributed to various internal and external factors. Among the internal factors are nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, stress, and certain medical conditions. 


External factors include excessive sun exposure, the use of harsh hair products, chemical treatments, heat from styling tools, and pollution. These elements can damage the hair cuticle, making it dull and brittle.


2. How to fix them to regain beautiful hair

To correct these problems and regain shiny, supple hair, it is essential to adopt a comprehensive approach. 


This includes a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, the use of specific dietary supplements, and the application of suitable hair care treatments. Avoiding harsh chemical treatments and limiting the use of heat can also help preserve hair health. 


Finally, regular hydration and the use of natural products can restore the shine and suppleness of hair.

IV. How can natural ingredients improve shine and suppleness?

1. The key natural ingredients

Natural ingredients, such as vegetable oils, plant extracts, and vitamins, are often rich in essential nutrients that can improve hair health for shiny and supple hair. 


For example, argan oil, rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, is known for its moisturizing and nourishing properties, which can make hair more supple and shiny. 


Similarly, field horsetail extract, rich in silica, can strengthen the hair structure and improve shine. Natural ingredients are often better tolerated by the scalp and hair, thereby reducing the risk of irritation and damage.
