Are you tired of having to deal with split ends? Did frizzies ruin that hot date you went on last night? This is the place you should be! The tip sheet that follows includes hair care advice that will make it easy to avoid hair issues, as well as improve the overall health of your hair.
Is your hair looking a little dull and dry? If so, then try this at-home conditioning treatment on your locks. After removing excess moisture from your hair, apply a generous amount of conditioner and wear a shower cap. The extra heat created by the cap allows the conditioner to penetrate further into your hair follicles.
Don’t use a blow dryer if you can avoid it. Heat styling saps moisture from hair, leaving it dry and frizzy. Rather, keep the hair wrapped up in a towel as long as you can. This lets your hair dry in a natural way and keeps the frizz at bay.
Using hair care products that have sunscreen in them can protect your hair from sun damage. Over time, exposure to the sun may damage your hair and adversely affect the way it looks and feels. By protecting your hair, it will be healthier and will not lighten.
Do you like what the ocean does to your hair? Some of these products are specifically labeled as ocean spray. If you want to make your own concoction, try mixing one teaspoon of salt with eight ounces of water. Then, add a few drops of oil of lavender to complete your mixture.
When you are towel drying your hair, don’t tug on it or rub it vigorously. Not only will this increase the amount of frizz you experience, it will stretch the strands of your hair, increasing breakage and split ends. Instead, try to treat your hair gently by patting it lightly, squeezing it with ease or wrapping it in a cotton towel. Also try not to brush your hair if it is wet. This can damage the ends and cause breakage.
Here is an easy way to restore moisture to dry hair. Wet your hair quickly, and just add a pretty generous amount of conditioner. After you have applied it, wrap your locks in plastic wrap so that the heat is trapped. 30 to 60 minutes later, you can shampoo out the conditioner and rinse.
Cold Weather
Don’t stay out in cold weather for long periods of time. Multiple things can happen in cold weather. Your hair can dry out or face a serious reduction in oils and nutrients. If you are going to be outside for any amount of time, protect your hair by wearing a hat or a toboggan.
When you brush your hair, start at the ends of your hair, then brush your way up. Detangle your hair carefully as you work through your hair to minimize breakage. As the knots work out, you can start doing slow strokes from the roots to the tips.
There is a solution for every hair care issue. The more you know about addressing common hair care concerns, the more likely you will be to overcome these difficulties. Apply what you’ve just learned. You will be shocked when you see how your hair feels and looks so much better.
