Detoxification typically implies following a specific diet or using special products that claim to rid your body of toxins, thereby improving health and promoting weight loss. Detoxification starts in your liver. While it's a complicated process, you liver essentially does this in two phases. First, it converts toxic substances to highly reactive metabolites and then excretes these toxins. Your kidneys, lungs, skin and even gut also play a role in detoxification. Still, only when these organs are healthy, can they effectively eliminate unwanted substances.
Detox diets are said to eliminate toxins from your body, often involve the use of laxatives, diuretics, vitamins, minerals, teas, and other foods thought to have detoxing properties. So, while detox diets don't do anything that your body can't naturally do on its own, you can optimize your body's natural detoxification system.
There are many detoxification programs and detox recipes, depending on your individual needs. Many programs follow schedule involving fasting on liquids, followed by a carefully planned detox diet to allow the digestive system to rest.

The skin is our largest organ and allows toxins to be eliminated through sweating. Often when the other detoxifying organs are compromised, toxins will begin to come through the skin as acne, rashes, blemishes, pimples or sores.
WHY DO WE NEED TO DETOX? Simply because clean and clear skin is the only way for good stuff to ever penetrate. In fact, good stuff on clogged pores is only junk on junk - meaning it can trigger breakouts! In which case, it's not so much the product that's triggering a reaction, but your skin not being able to absorb the nutrients. If the product's not going in, it's staying on... meaning you're just clogging it up more!
Deep cleanse (Eating lots of fruits and vegetables and drinking at least eight glasses of water a day helps your skin flush out toxins from the inside. But to thoroughly remove product buildup from the outside, make sure you are double cleansing daily).
Double cleansing involves use of oil-based cleanser followed up by a water-based one. After the first step has removed any makeup and impurities, the second cleanser will address your particular skin type or concern. Clinze face wash (water based cleanser) is formulated specially for all skin types and has ingredients to hydrate, smooth or exfoliate and treat acne.

Drinking at least two liters of water a day will help the strength of your hair, increasing growth as dehydration immediately halts hair growth.
By drinking water, you’ll ease the itching and have your scalp feeling refreshed. Even better, water keeps the scalp from becoming dry enough to start flaking.
Soft water can make the hair more manageable.
This is through the molecules and low mineral salt in it. Hard water causes color fading and dryness, which leads to frizz because of the excess mineral buildup in hair.
“The colder, the better”. “This will assure that your hair’s cuticle is closed, which will smooth your hair and provide an intense shine,” Water that comes from the city is treated with chlorine to kill off bacteria.
Too much chlorine can dry out your hair and can cause discoloration.
If your water comes from a well, it often has a higher concentration of minerals such as calcium and limestone.
These too can build up on your hair and can cause it to dry out.
On average, you shed around 50-150 strands of hair a day. A single hair has a lifespan of about five years.Hair contains information about everything that has ever been in your bloodstream, including drugs, and is one of the most commonly used types of forensic evidence

Hair is basically to insulate our head. In summer, such intense insulation is not required. So, the body lets some of the hair fall out to keep our heads cool.

Salt water (containing raised amount of sodium, chloride, magnesium, sulfate and calcium.), Hard water ( contains high amounts of magnesium, silica and calcium), Chlorine water (chlorine is a chemical added to tap water by the municipal corporations to get rid of pollutants) is very aggressive for your hair, and frequent washing with such water suck up the protective oils and moisture from your hair and scalp, leaving it rough and coarse.
Dehydration can also cause the hair to get brittle and break off. And it is a serious problem during summers because we tend to sweat a lot. Make sure you consume 2-3 liters of water every day. Consume fruits and vegetables that have high water content, like cucumbers, tomatoes, watermelon, etc.
Sweat tends to dry out your scalp and hinder the growth of new hair. Moreover, the natural salts present in sweat can also strip the colour of your hair, which results in premature greying. If you let sweat and dirt sit on your scalp for too long, your hair follicles can get clogged, which could result in an itchy scalp, as skin cells start to build up.
As temperatures rise, the dandruff-causing microbe Malassezia globosa is more likely to thrive, raising the prospect of a dandruff flare-up.
