When you take care of your hair correctly you will have a different life. The simple fact is that someone with good hair is, all things being equal, going to be more attractive. You might find that you are getting more attention from a variety of different people, including your boss, who naturally wants the people representing her company to be well groomed. The following information should be used for your future hairdressing.
If your hair is fine or thin, it’s best to avoid using any heavy conditioners. Your hair will look weighted down, which is the opposite of what you want! Lighter conditioners, delivered in a spray or mousse are the best to give your hair good volume without weighing it down or causing a limp, greasy look.
To get your hair in better condition and make it stronger, try not to use too many hand-held drying devices. Curling irons and blow dryers can seriously dry your hair, and can make it nearly impossible to control frizz and restore condition. Take breaks from the heat to allow your hair time to rejuvenate.
If you have dry hair, try this at-home treatment option for great results. Wash your hair and wring out most of the water. Then apply conditioner liberally, put on a cap and let it sit for 10 minutes. The heat will enable your conditioner to penetrate your hair.
Whenever Possible
Whenever possible, don’t use a hair dryer on your hair. Styling your hair with heat can often damage your hair and cause it to become frizzy. Instead, towel dry hair whenever possible. This will allow your hair to dry naturally, and will leave you with a minimal amount of frizz.
Keep the sun from damaging your hair with products that have sunscreen in them. Excessive sun damage can negate all that time you spend in front of the mirror getting your hair to look just right. By protecting your hair, not only will you keep it healthy, but you will also keep it looking beautiful.
There are now products available that will give your hair the effect of just having bathed in the salty ocean. Look for products that market themselves as a salt spray. Mix up eight ounces of water with a teaspoon of salt to make up your own mixture. Then, add about ten drops of lavender oil and now, you have the ocean in a bottle.
Don’t tug on your hair, even with a towel on your head. Your hair strands are likely to stretch and break and it will dry frizzy. Rather, pat your hair dry, squeeze extra moisture with your hands, or sweep the hair up into a towel. Never use a brush on wet hair, only use a comb with wide teeth.
Blow Dryer
Minimize your use of the blow dryer. Hot air that comes out of blow dryers can cause a lot of damage to your hair. Therefore, allow your hair to dry naturally whenever you can. If you must blow-dry your hair, keep the hair dryer on a cool setting and do not keep the dryer in the same spot for very long. In order to dry hair faster, use a towel to dry it before you use a blow dryer.
Now that you have a better understanding of your options regarding hair care, you should be able to enhance your routine with ease. You should apply all the information in this article, so you can achieve great looking hair. Care for your hair and show it off; you’ll soon notice how many more doors open for you when you do.
