There are a lot of things to think about when caring for your hair. At times it may seem frustrating with so many things you need to do in order to maintain healthy hair. However, after you learn a few tips and tricks of the trade, you will realize how to simplify the process and make hairdressing easier.
Stay clear of thick, heavy conditioners if you have thin or fine hair. This is only going to make the hair appear to be fine and thin. Conditioners that are similar to mousse or light spray-able, leave-in conditioners are great for adding volume without making your hair look greasy or heavy.
If your hair is dull or does not have life, try changing the way you eat. A well-balanced diet containing high-quality protein, B-12 and iron are important for healthy hair. If you are having difficulty adding these things to your diet, consider taking a multivitamin.
If you desire how your hair looks when you are done swimming, there are different products that can try to mimic this effect. Keep an eye out for bottles called “salt spray”, or something like that. You can even mix up your own batch by dissolving a teaspoon of salt into a cup of water. Next, add approximately ten lavender oil drops, and you will have done it.
When towel drying never briskly rub your hair. This can cause frizz and stretches your hair, causing breakage. The best ways to dry your hair using a towel are to gently pat or press out the excess moisture, or simply wrap it in a loose fitting towel. If you need to comb your hair while it’s still wet, use a comb with wide spaced teeth. Do not use a brush on your hair while it’s wet.
Blow Dry
Do not blow dry your hair for too long. Hot air that comes out of blow dryers can cause a lot of damage to your hair. Therefore, allow your hair to dry naturally whenever you can. If you must blow dry it, use its cool setting and don’t have it hover over a single spot too long. Thoroughly towel dry your hair before blow drying to help your hair dry quickly.
If you have dull hair, you should try a clarifying shampoo. Hair that appears really dull can be caused by lots of different hair products that build up gradually. The best way to remove excess buildup is by using a shampoo that is specifically made to remove this residue without causing harm to your hair.
Resist the habit of using only one type or brand of hair products. When you change brands every now and then, your hair may react positively. Switching brands may also get it of buildup caused by other brands, leaving your hair healthier.
