One of the secret of the girls is their hair. Sometimes even without make-up girls still looks good because of their hair so we should take care of them too right? Here are some simple tips to maintain a healthy hair.
1. Brush your hair regularly, this will stimulates the blood supply to the scalp, remove dead skin cells from the scalp before they can get infected, and distributes sebum over the hair shaft for moisturizing and protection.
2. Wash your hair with a mild shampoo but make sure that your hair is thoroughly wet before applying shampoo this will minimize breakage. Remember that you only have to use no more than a quarter-size dollop, and rub the shampoo between your palms first. And let your hair hang naturally when you wash it piling it up on your head to wash is a big NO-NO-NO.
3. Avoid using a brush on wet hair because it is subject to breakage. Comb out snarls
4. Massage your scalp before you stop to groom and brush your hair during the day, make a point of doing a quick scalp massage first. Slip your fingers into your hair, and using just the pads of your fingers, massage in small circular motions over your scalp.
5. Towel-dry your hair thoroughly before using a blow dryer. You'll save time and avoid damaging your hair with too much heat.
6. Dull, lifeless hair can be a sign of a poor diet. Try cutting down on cholesterol and fats.
7. Never use a rubber band on your hair as it can pull and damage hair considerably.
8. Let your hair have its break day from shampooing. Shampooing your hair daily can strip your strands of natural oils that protect your hair and can effectively dry your hair. Skip a day or two of shampooing to allow your natural oils to be distributed through strands naturally.
9. Cover your hair when going out. Hats, caps or beenies, depending on the place you are going can be a tremendous help for your hair. Not only do they protect your hair, you can also hide the not so attractive state of your hair in case you are still adjusting to local weather.
10. And last, a healthy diet and proper rest. Hair lost ca happen because of stress. Eat foods that are rich in vitamin B, C and E.
