Simple hair care tips at home.
A healthy, bouncy, shiny hair is always the dream of women. However, today, the abuse of many cosmetics for the hair as well as the bad change from the environment can easily make the hair dry, tangled, split ends, oily.
They greatly affect the attractiveness of your face and overall appearance.
Therefore, taking care of your hair is something you need to invest in both time and effort, just like taking care of your skin and removing makeup on your face.
To overcome this situation, let’s change some daily habits to quickly regain the shine and smoothness of your hair.
Cut hair regularly
According to hairstylists, trimming hair, 1.5cm each time for 6-8 weeks is an ideal plan to help hair grow long fast. By this schedule, you can prevent split ends going up to the hair shaft, causing breakage of hair structure. About 12 weeks, the trimmed hair will become a graceful, beautiful hairstyle.
Do not wash your hair often and brush your hair gently
Many people think that when hair is dry and tangled, they should wash their hair several times a week. However, that is a completely wrong opinion because this makes the hair dehydrated and more prone to dryness. Wash your hair regularly and keep a reasonable distance between times. It is best to wash every 2 days unless you have to work or spend a lot of time outdoors.
Using cool water to wash your hair will help close the pores, but not affect the cuticle of the hair. When washing your hair, do not put shampoo directly on your head, but you must wet your hair, put shampoo in your palm and mix with water to create foam. Then rub evenly on the hair, gently scratch, massage for a while and then rinse with water until all the foam is removed.
Dry your hair and comb it with your fingers first or with a wide comb, because when you first wash your hair, your hair is easily tangled, so if you comb it with a regular thick tooth comb, it will cause hair loss. Simultaneously combined with soft massage manipulations to avoid damage to the scalp as well as reduce the shine of the hair.
Limit the heat
Heat from dryers, curlers or irons is one of the main causes of dry, brittle hair and split ends.
Therefore, girls should limit the use of these machines by letting their hair dry naturally after shampooing or using curlers that do not require heat.
Note: when drying your hair, divide your hair into small sections and comb it smoothly with a comb first. Then dry each section that has been divided and remember to keep the dryer more than 5 cm away from the hair, not too close to the hair.
It is more effective to dry and straighten your hair at the same time than drying it completely and then combing it. This also helps to keep the hair smooth and soft.
In addition, in hot summer weather, you should not expose your hair to the sun, when going out, you should wear a hat to protect your hair.
Use the suitable shampoo
Instead of shampoos containing many chemical ingredients, you should choose natural extracts and do not irritate the scalp as well as damage the hair.
If you have time, you should use natural nutrients such as locust, grapefruit peel, lemongrass … cooked into shampoo. Your hair will quickly improve the split ends anh it will be shiny and strong.
Massage your scalp regularly
Regular massaging your hair gives you many benefits, and preventing hair loss is just one of them. Spend 10-15 minutes each day gently massaging the scalp. This will help increase blood circulation in the scalp, stimulating hair growth. The effect of scalp massage will be greatly increased if you apply a little lavender or drupe oil on your scalp.
Moisturizing treatment for hair
Moisturizing treatment for hair at least once a month is essential. A homemade coconut cream and butter recipe can be made, followed by a shampoo, mask, and apple cider vinegar. The result after a few treatments will bring a good result: strong, shiny hair and no more split ends. Providing moisture to the hair is the key to success for long hair.
For those with curly hair, experts recommend regularly steaming the hair so that the hair is enhanced with moisture, nutrients and becomes more shiny, while limiting the phenomenon of dry hair, split ends.
Once a week, you can steam your hair cold at home once to limit the impact of high temperatures that are as harmful to hair as when steaming hot.
Choose a suitable hair conditioner and gently apply it to your hair after washing it, then wrap it in a towel and wait for about 15-30 minutes depending on the specific steaming oil, you will find your hair becomes much softer and shiny.
Pay attention to the material of the pillow
Don’t be afraid to shell out for a silk or satin pillowcase. The friction of the hair in front of the pillow can lead to breakage of the hair structure.
Do not use a hard towel to dry your hair
Wet hair is more prone to breakage than dry hair, so when you finish washing your hair, choose a soft towel to dry your hair, you should also not use a towel to rub too hard or squeeze or twist your hair, just saturate the water gently.
Pay attention to your diet
One of the reasons why your hair becomes ugly is due to an imbalance in nutrition, making it difficult for the scalp to absorb nutrients to grow hair. Therefore, you should supplement with B vitamins, types to moisten and thicken hair by smoothie or foods rich in vitamin B such as bananas, green beans, yogurt, eggs, cereals… and especially drink lots of water.
In the fall, hair usually grows much more slowly, but with a good diet, you can still have beautiful hair throughout this time.
Minimize caffeine intake by reducing tea, coffee, chocolate or colas.
Use a natural hair mask
Take care of your hair with common foods at home .
After cutting split ends, you should use natural hair masks. Some masks help hair to recover quickly like avocado masks, you just need to puree avocado and then mix the above mixture with eggs (both yolks and whites can be used) and olive oil.
Apply evenly from the ends of the hair to the roots, shorten or use a cap to incubate the hair for 20-30 minutes. Note that you should wash your hair with warm water first to completely clean the mask layers on your hair. Then use shampoo and rinse with cold water.
