It's not dandruff...Honey you have Psoriasis
My clients know my mission as a hair stylist is to teach the best way to have great hair is to walk the path of health. It begins with treating your body right and eating good clean food.
Our hair is simply amazing. When something is wrong with the body your hair is the first to whisper that something is not right.
