Weak, shedding hair? Sounds familiar?
I’ve been reading your comments under my Instagram Reels — and one thing keeps coming up:“Why is my hair getting thinner?”“My hair falls out in clumps…”“I miss the fullness I used to have.” Sounds familiar? You’re not alone.And here’s the thing: it’s not always about age.Sure, we’ve all heard the phrase “hair naturally thins as we get older” —but I know from experience: that’s not the whole story. What we eat plays a HUGE role in how our hair looks and feels —just like it affects our skin, our energy, our mood, and even our muscle tone. And since I can’t fit it all into one Reel 😉Here’s a full…

5 Mistakes in Gray Hair Care 🚫⚡
Gray hair is beautiful, but it needs special care to stay soft, shiny, and free from unwanted yellow tones. Avoid these common mistakes to keep your silver strands looking their best! 1️⃣ Using Shampoos with SLS/SLESHarsh sulfates (SLS/SLES) strip the hair of moisture, making it dry and brittle. Plus, they can contribute to yellowing! Instead, opt for sulfate-free shampoos that cleanse gently while maintaining hydration. 2️⃣ Choosing the Wrong Oils 🚨💛Not all hair oils are safe for gray hair! Argan, castor, and olive oil can cause unwanted yellowish tones. If you love using oils, go for coconut oil 🥥—it’s lightweight, nourishing, and won’t alter your hair color. 3️⃣ Skipping Hydration…

Gray Hair Care – My Trusted Routine
Today, I’m sharing my daily routine for caring for gray hair. Maybe you’ll find some inspiration here! I’ve always chosen gentle shampoos and conditioners (or masks) with good ingredients. I avoid “bad ingredients” like SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), SLES (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), alcohol, and unnecessary dyes. For me, simplicity and effectiveness are key – and my hair appreciates it! My Golden Rule: Why? Because no shampoo can make your hair shine if you neglect your scalp and hair follicles. Healthy hair starts at the roots! And conditioner? For my wavy (sometimes even slightly curly) hair, it has to hydrate, add bounce, and help it look beautifully styled. How Do I…

Happy Birthday to me :)
Aging... What a perfect moment to write a few words about it. Is it really aging, or is it more about gaining life experience? Every life journey begins at birth and ends in the same place for everyone. It’s up to us whether we flow with it or resist it. Accepting time and the cycle of life is that conscious moment when you go with the flow instead of wasting time dwelling on the past and longing for what’s been lost. I haven’t lost anything- everything has its time: youth, foolishness, and growing up. Now it’s a different time and a different appearance – everything just as nature intended. When…

Rysy has finally been conquered!
Last year, we failed to reach Poland’s highest peak—Rysy at 2,499 meters above sea level—as warnings about dangerous lingering snow on the Tatra National Park’s website dissuaded us (me and my Son) from taking the risk. However, this year, I cleverly planned our trip to ensure no snow would impede our path. The route was spectacular, taking just 11 hours and 13 minutes from entering to exiting the Tatra National Park at Łysa Polana. The weather was tailor-made; calm and sunny in the morning and cooler clouds arrived later in the day to temper our excitement and save us from getting sunburned. Seriously though, the weather was perfect—cool in the…

You Are Priceless!Your Worth Does Not Depend on Anything External
How much are you worth? This question has been echoing in my mind for a long time, so I might write more than usual because this is truly important. Let’s think about your inner value. What is your sense of self-worth? What is it built upon, and have you always had it? The answer is always the same – you were priceless, you are priceless, and you will be priceless! Any scratch on this opinion comes only from the beliefs you acquired during your life, from others’ opinions and judgments. Your worth does not depend on your hair color, brand-name clothes, possessions, education, or the number of likes you get.…

Bergen Marathons: Why I Haven’t Been Here for a While ;)
Chasing after training sessions, good food, relaxation, and work didn’t leave me much time for writing. But I do have some personal successes to share! At the end of April 2024, I participated in the fantastic Bergen City Half Marathon, and at the beginning of June, I completed the Bergen Mountain Half Marathon. Just a year ago, I ran my first 5 km, and I never would have thought that I’d be able to complete the Bergen half marathon – known to be quite challenging due to its mountainous terrain. The most important thing I want to highlight is that anything is possible if it’s well planned. Preparing for a…

My Journey to Healthier Hair #2 Diet
Diet. Doesn’t this word sound like something we’d want to avoid at all costs? It brings to mind restrictions, sacrifices, and an unpleasant feeling that we have to give something up. But don’t be misled – it’s actually about something much more positive and constructive. Instead of talking about dieting, I prefer to focus on “rational eating.” Sounds better, doesn’t it? Our nutritional needs change with every stage of life. Proper nutrition isn’t about mindlessly stuffing ourselves but about consciously choosing what lands on our plates. Different periods in life require different nutrients. And what happens inside us directly affects how we look outside. That’s why it’s important to focus…
