Tips For Damaged Hair

The weather, the beach, the stress, the wrong products... many are the factors that can damage our hair and make it look dull and dry. Here are a few tips that I have gathered and that I hope you find them useful.

1- Before you select a product for your hair make sure that it is designed to treat the type of damage that your hair has, and make sure that it is a quality product.
2-Even if you are trying to grow your hair out it is important to trim the ends of your hair about every two weeks. You don’t have to trim very much, just about a centimeter if your hair is relatively healthy.
3- Limit the use of chemical treatments like perms, dyes, and relaxers to once every 8 to 10 weeks at the most.
4-You can perform deep conditioning with heat using a moisturizing conditioner especially manufactured for dry or damaged hair on weekly basis.
5-Try if possible not blow-dry. Wait until they dry naturally. If you can not do without a hair dryer you must set very gentle regimen.

6-Shampoos, which contain essential oils, various plant extracts such as hops, chamomile, nettle, sage and lecithin are ideal for dry and damaged hair. Well suited shampoos containing lanolin, panthenol, jojoba and avocado, they are perfectly reconstructing the hair after using these shampoos hair becomes shiny and silky.
7-There are several items in your kitchen that you can use to improve the health and appearance of your hair. For split ends, dry hair, and frizzy hair you can use olive oil and a beaten egg.
8-Trade in your hairbrush for a wide-toothed comb to limit hair breakage.
9-Treatment of damaged hair is largely dependent on proper nutrition. The diet of health food should be present a large amount of mineral salts and vitamins.
10-Before you can begin the process of damaged hair care, you must first know the source. Is it chemical damage? Are you using heated instruments that are damaging your hair?

I hope you found these useful. Have a great weekend!

Hair Care Tips

I recently found some very good and simple tips for the care of our hair and I would like to share them with you.

Most of them are very easy to follow.

Here they are:

>A healthy lifestyle will mean healthier hair for you. Excessive stress, smoking, not exercising and not eating nutritiously are not healthy for your hair.

>Get enough sleep.

>Avoid using hair styling products with alcohol which dries out hair.

>Avoid puting hair styling products directly on your scalp, if you put it on your scalp you'll clog the pores on your head.

>Before entering a pool, wet your hair so your hair will soak up the initial water instead of the

chlorinated water.

>When swimming where a cap to protect your hair from chlorinated water, if you choose not to wear a cap make sure you shampoo and condition your hair right after you are done swimming.

>Hot air can be damaging to your hair so when using a hair dryer use the cool setting.

>Brush your hair regularly before going to bed each night.

>Wash your hair with a mild shampoo. Use very little but enough to cover hair completely with lather. Use a conditioner to keep hair manageable.

>Avoid brushing wet hair. This will cause the hair to stretch and finally break. Finger-dry, or use a wide-toothed comb instead of a brush to gently remove the knots.

>Stimulate circulation by massaging your head with oil to which some vitamin E has been added. This will make hair soft and silky.

>Try not sleeping with your hair in a ponytail or done in a braid. This will stress the hair immensely and will eventually lead to damage.

I hope you´ll find these tips useful.
