Keeping your hair healthy
Hair is the ultimate crowning glory to any girl. It can add to your overall look instantly. Keeping it in healthy condition is the most important thing you can do to help it look and feel fabulous. And, while it seems easy, this isn’t as simple as minimizing chemical treatments or using on a weekly deep conditioner. These can surely make your hair softer, less split-end-prone and manageable but what really matters is how you daily handle them. Keeping it safe from chemicals, stress, sun damage, dirt and pollution, washing often is all included in basic hair care.
Here are some dos and don’ts from hair care:
- Brush before shampooing. A few gentle strokes on dry hair with the boar bristle hair brush will help remove scalp flakes, as well as stimulate the scalp and promote blood flow which is very good for hair follicles to pull in all the moisture and vitamins in your shampoo and conditioner.
- Trim your troubles. As the ends of your hair get older and damaged by rough handling, they become prone to splitting. Spilt ends are one of the most common problems to every hair type. Trimming them an inch every now and them will keep them healthy and allow then to grow well further.
- The products you use should be well checked by you. If you have colored hair, use colored hair products. Colored hair is weak till a long time. Don’t forget to deep condition them and never brush them when wet. Use a wide tooth comb or brush if needed.
- Beans, yogurt, almonds, vitamin E, vitamin B, fish and loads of water should be included in your daily diet. Anything unhealthy you eat will immediately show up in your health and vice versa. You can use natural ingredients for conditioning like egg and yogurt too.
- NEVER go to bed with your hair wet! Hair that is half wet is most easily broken, and if you sleep during this time, your hair will be rubbing against each other, damaging your hair in the most terrible way.
- Try an ionic dryer. Ions are atoms with a positive or negative charge. These particular hair-dryers bathe your hair in negative ions, which help break up water molecules faster and cancel out hair-damaging positive ions. Heat is however harmful to hair. Use heat protecting lotions and sprays.
Whether your concern is dullness, damage, frizz or fragility try some of these tips and be sure of have beautiful tresses! Remember, hair quantity doesn’t matter. It’s the quality of your hair that matters.
