Caring for your roots isn’t just about massaging with the latest oil that promises to be a game-changer. It’s about understanding that each tiny hair factory beneath your skin needs nourishment, a hospitable environment, and the tender whispering of sweet nothings. Now, why show your roots some love? Because let’s be honest, folks—no one’s ever admired a tree for its impressive collection of dead leaves. Strong roots mean strong hair. It’s as simple as that.
