4 Typical Teen Gripes that we all hate

As teens, we are all prone to problems caused by our wayward hormones. Hormones can play a huge part in our lives. But they are most prominent during these years because they are changing our bodies so much. For girls, this battle with hormone balance can carry on until we’re seventeen or eighteen.

Of course, as teens, there are so many other things that we might gripe about. Here are just a few of the ones we hate the most:4 Typical Teen Gripes that we all hate 1

Teeth

During our teen years, teeth alignment issues can be improved. Often, braces and other unpleasant-looking contraptions are used. Some of them can cause sores in the mouth too. Wisdom teeth can erupt and become infected, meaning we have to have them removed under a general anaesthetic.

And even if we don’t have to go through these painful dental treatments, we may still suffer from stained and yellowed teeth. If you read this article, you’ll see how common a problem discoloured teeth can be. Whitening treatments are available, but it may be best to choose a peroxide-free one.

Hair

Hormones will cause plenty of bad hair days each month. But it’s actually excess styling and bad weather that can be the biggest problems. During the teen years, it’s important to take extra care of our hair. It is at its most plentiful, but also it’s most vulnerable.

Treat it to oils and conditioners that keep it in the best possible condition. After all, many teens will try a different style every season. And wearing the hair up can contribute to damage.

Skin

Blemishes, pimples, spots, and acne are every teenager’s worst enemy. Teens are supposed to be fresh-faced and at their most beautiful during these years. But instead, we can be fighting endless battles trying to keep our skin problems under control.

A lot of it is caused by hormones. However, much of it can be minimised by making minor tweaks to your diet, water intake, and skincare routines. Keep pores clean with cleansers twice a day, and try to add some Omega 3, probiotics, and vitamins A and E to your diet.

We highly recommend creating a skincare routine morning and night and sticking to this religiously. Choose more natural products such as tea tree and witch hazel as well as a cleansing tonic.
