Understanding ingredients in Hair products ~ What should you look for?

Dr Gaby Longsworth is a mum, wife, Ph.D. Scientist, Certified Hair Practitioner, Trichologist, a biotech/pharmaceutical patent attorney, and owner of Absolutely Everything Curly. She has a Ph.D. in human genetics and molecular biology at The Johns Hopkins University and a B.S. in molecular biology from the Florida Institute of Technology.

As a scientist, she was curious to learn why certain hair products worked well for her hair but others did not, so she started learning to understand the different ingredients.
She was shocked at the amount of misinformation and the misleading marketing tricks companies used.

Gaby is deeply passionate about sharing her knowledge and research while continuing the movement of cherishing, embracing, and discovering your natural beauty.

We look at the different ingredients, what they do and how to read and understand the labels on your hair products.

Gaby also describes the challenges of being mixed race and having curly hair in a professional Law environment, and how embracing her natural texture and also grey hair challenged the expected 'standards' of some institutions.
She shares her knowledge on how to care for grey hair.
