Often, people want healthy, beautiful hair, but they don’t know how to get it. This is a great place to start if you are looking for ways to improve the condition and style of your hair. For foolproof and practical advice, read on.
To maintain healthy and damage free hair, try not to brush when it’s still wet. Wet hair is softer and more prone to breaking. To reduce the risk of damage, brush your hair prior to getting into the shower or wait until it is completely dry, then comb it.
When you find yourself dealing with dry, brittle hair, use this home-conditioning trick. Once you have washed your hair and wrung out some of the wetness, apply your conditioner and then pop on a shower cap for a few minutes. The conditioner will penetrate the hair shaft as the heat from your scalp builds up under the shower cap.
When drying hair, try to lessen the use of a blow-dryer. Styling with heat can really damage your hair and leave it frizzy and unruly. Instead, wrap a towel around your hair until it is no longer wet. This promotes natural drying and minimizes the amount of frizz that will remain when you are done.
To give your hair that look that says you just came out of the ocean, look for products that can mimic this look. Look for salt sprays in the conditioning section of your favorite stores. To create your own formula, put a teaspoon of salt into 8 ounces of water. Then, add a few drops of oil of lavender to complete your mixture.
Try to avoid exposing your skin, scalp and hair to the drying effects of cold weather. Cold weather can reduce essential oils and nutrients in your hair, causing it to become dry. Therefore, you should always cover your hair if you intend to spend time outdoors for prolonged periods.
If you have a problem with your hair, there is almost certainly a solution to be found. Once you find that solution, you can start enjoying the resilient, healthy hair you deserve. Try putting into practice the advice you just read into practice. You may be surprised at how much better your hair feels and looks.
