SEARCH“Our LONG HAIRitage,” a great book for salon professionals.
Roger Sigler, Author of “Our LONG HAIRitage” told me recently about his book subtitled “Bringing Peace and Health To Your Head”: “This is a must read for all salon professionals looking to maintain the health of their clients hair. Whether they suffer from split ends, dandruff, psoriasis, dry hair, or hair loss, this book can help.”
Sigler, a scientific and biblical researcher, author and lecturer, is an avid enthusiast for natural health. His expertise in long hair (he believes long hair is best for all) and scalp issues began with his observations and studies in environmental science, a field he has worked for more than 25 years.
“Our LONG HAIRitage discusses hair and scalp issues,” he says. “from the root up including nutrition, shampoos, chemicals, hair length, and even has an impressive historical section about longer hair cuts.”
Sigler believes that in-salon treatments such as deep conditioning, scalp treatments and laser light do make a difference in the quality and health of the hair. “If your client really wants to prevent hair loss, heal the scalp, and even possibly re-grow lost hair, this book will offer insight,” he says. “You will learn many incredible things about the design, significance, symbolism, and purpose of human hair. Once you understand these purposes, and how hair is made, then you will learn how to properly care for the hair. Even more importantly, you will learn what you must do to prevent hair loss naturally, right now and in the future. The greatest myth ever is that baldness is inevitable.”
