Learn To Care For Your Hair With These Tips

By Cindie Reill


Washing your hair regularly and running a comb through are two of the easiest ways to care for your hair. Depending on the amount of chemicals or heat damage your hair undergoes, you may have to do some extra things to make your hair healthy. Read this article for useful tips!

If you happen to suffer from a flaky scalp, try using this treatment bi-weekly: Start sectioning your hair and do a gentle rubbing on your scalp using a rubbing alcohol-saturated cotton pad. Once the alcohol dries, start brushing your hair. Finish with a thorough rinse using warm water, and be sure not to shampoo.

If you enjoy swimming in pools during the spring and summer, take time to protect your hair before hitting the water. Either soak your hair in regular water to discourage the absorption of chlorinated water, or wear a bathing cap to avoid drying out your delicate tresses. Your hair will thank you for it.

Don't use your bristle hairbrush on wet hair. Always use a comb or pick on your beautiful wet tresses. A hairbrush encourages breakage and split ends. Just lightly towel dry your hair and remove tangles by gently combing through your hair with a wide-toothed comb, or even your fingers. Allow to air dry whenever possible to minimize heat damage.

Go ahead and forget the old adage about brushing your hair 100 strokes a day. Over brushing can actually lead to hair loss, breakage of strands and increased oil production. Normal brushing of your hair once or twice daily is sufficient to keep it healthy and free of tangles and build-up.

Wearing a swim cap when swimming may make you feel silly, but it is going to play a big role in how healthy your hair is. If you swim on a regular basis, you must be sure to wear the swim cap. The chlorine will damage your hair more than you could think.

If you are going to condition your hair make sure you do it directly after shampooing it. This will make sure you get the most out of your conditioning and it will be softer and more managable than if you just shampooed it. You will have a more beautiful head of hair.

Outside conditions can be detrimental to your hair, but of course, you just have to make due and use other techniques that offset those complications. We all have to be outside, and everyone likes having fun in the sun. One good tip is to use a dehumidifier inside your home.

Hair care is one of the easiest ways to give you a more polished look, but remember that looks aren't everything. Being comfortable with yourself and the people around you should be your number-one priority. If you'd like to try some new things with your hair, do it! Remember these great hair care tips for your next big day.
