Like all women, she also had her beauty secrets, which today have come down to us.
Attention to the health of the hair seems to have a close connection with Ancient Egypt.
It is said that the first trichological specialist was an Egyptian who lived in the
4000 BC. For this people, hygiene and aesthetics were fundamental: the cleanliness of the body represented the cleanliness of the soul.
As the findings of some mummies show, Egyptian women colored their hair with henna mixtures. The coloring was in fact already known and used at those times. Even Cleopatra, the last queen of Egypt, devoted many hours of the day to her beauty and always had impeccable hair woven with fine decorations. For their care, Cleopatra alternated salt treatments to lighten the tone and healing packs of eggs and water to keep them soft and silky. For the lengths the Egyptian women applied safflower powder and snake oil; to regenerate the most damaged hair they used fenugreek added with lion fat, while to define the styling they used beeswax and gum Arabic.
