HAIR CARE TIPS

Here are the 10 most important hair care tips that everybody should know.






  1. Only brush your hair when it’s dry. Hair is most delicate when it’s wet, so brushing in the shower (or right afterwards) can lead to breakage.
  2. Don’t over-wash your hair. Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to shampoo your hair daily - doing so can actually make your hair dry and hard to work with.
  3. If you use a blow dryer, always keep it at least 6 inches from your scalp to keep from heat damaging your hair.
  4. Don’t rub your towel into your scalp after you shower. Instead, just blot your hair with the towel, and then smooth the towel gently along the length of your hair.
  5. To boost the shine in your hair, blast it with some cool air before you start your day. The cold air will seal the cuticle and give your hair more lustre.
  6. To cut down on static electricity, dampen your hairbrush before you start brushing.
  7. To maintain a soft and silky shine, do a “deep conditioning” on your hair once a week (where you leave the conditioner in for at least 10 minutes before rinsing thoroughly).
  8. Always use a wide-tooth comb to detangle long hair before you start brushing - this saves your hair from a lot of unnecessary damage.
  9. Wait at least 48 hours after coloring hair to shampoo it. Every time you wet your hair, you open the cuticle - so give your hair enough time to seal in the color.
  10. The healthier your diet is, the healthier your hair will be. So take good care of your body, and your hair will show the difference.
