Why would anyone fight the traffic, sit reading magazine just to get healthy looking hair when you can easily do it at home? All you need are simple styling tools like quality brushes, first rate hair products and some helpful tips like what follow.
Washing: To keep your hair healthy, wash it every other day with a mild shampoo and conditioner. When lather up gently massage the hair closest to the scalp to remove accumulated oil and grime. Next be sure to put the conditioner just on the tips of your hair. Moisturizing the driest hair like the ends is important if you want radiant shine. Finally rinse your hair thoroughly to get all the styling products out.
Tip: Overnight transformations are easily achieved with hair color. When selecting the color that best compliments your skin tones, have a pro help you even if home coloring kits are available.
What You Eat: You may not realize it but gorgeous hair begins with what you put in your mouth. For healthy hair think dark leafy veggies. Carrots offer Vitamin A. Proteins make for stronger hair. And don’t forget to drink plenty of water. Your hair mirrors what you eat. Eat well and it will be revealed in your hair.
Drying: When it comes to drying your hair, rubbing is out. Rubbing only causes tangles and breakage. Squeeze out the excess water into your towel. Dry it just enough so it’s not dripping while blow drying with the dryer set on at the lowest heat setting that works. For best results, apply a protective serum to your hair before blow drying. Where ever possible air dry your hair about two thirds of the way to dry. Also hold the dryer at least 12 inches away from your head. Another helpful tip is to separate your hair into sections.
Combs and Brushes: For texture and detangling, you need a wide tooth comb. Ideally you want a good bristle brush for everyday use if you can afford it. You can easily create volume using a barrel brush. While a flat brush is a must have for great pony tails. A good paddle brush works best for medium to long locks.
Tip: A final rinse using mineral water is the secret to a great blow dry. Failing to do so is a big hair no no.
