Make your hair a priority

Hair is  difficult to maintain but it can be easy as well if you follow the right kind of steps. Hair is made of proteins, so keeping a healthy diet and good hygiene is an essential part of maintaining it. Here are some other tips about hair care, and what you can do at home to make your hair look beautiful.

STEP 1:Washing your hair properly

Washing hair too often can leave hair dried out, leached of its natural oils, and may damage your hair. Shampoo your hair at most after one week. Ask your hairdresser the best shampoo to use for your hair.

STEP 2:Dry the hair

Let hair dry naturally. After you get out of the shower, wrapping your hair in a towels is not ideal because towels are made of fabric that is very rough and damaging to your hair, causing split ends. Avoid brushing hair while wet, as it makes the hair brittle and weak. Only use a wide tooth comb to brush out tangles while hair is wet. Try not to use a blow-dryer. Healthy hair does not respond well to heat. Hair can sustain heat damage easily, especially from blow-dryers. If you have to use a blow-dryer, dry your hair using the lowest-temperature setting and limit usage.

STEP 3:Condition the hair

They are different types of hair conditioners. Always condition your hair every time you shampoo it and again ask for a hair conditioner that suit your hair texture. With the conditioner be cautious that it does not contain too much protein. Too much protein can leave your hair feeling desiccated and brittle. While protein is the building block of healthy hair, use conditioners that come with balanced ingredients.

STEP 4:Brush your hair

Before brushing the hair use your hands to separate your hair. Brushing your hair will cause damage to your hair strands that results in frizz and split ends.
