So you’ve got that perfect celebrity haircut that suits you and your personality. The next question would be: how do you properly take care of your hair so you won’t have to worry about going back to the salon sooner than your next expected visit? Here are few simple hair care tips for keeping that mane attraction from becoming a main distraction.
1. KEEP YOUR HAIR CLEAN. Comb the tangles out of your hair before you wet it so the hair will wash easily and the tangles will not worsen. Then wet your hair thoroughly under the shower. You can use either warm or cold water if you like, but for the best results, you can wet your hair with warm water to open the scale like cuticles of the hair and wash all the oil and dirt off. You can then rinse your hair with cold water afterwards to close the cuticles and add to the shine of your hair.
2. DILUTE SHAMPOO WITH WATER BEFORE APPLYING TO YOUR HAIR. Take note that you should put the shampoo on your scalp and not on the ends of your hair, as the shampoo will dry your hair’s ends and cause them to weaken and split. Also, do not “mix” your hair all over your head as you shampoo because it will get tangled. After this, rinse the shampoo off.
3. AIR DRY. Give your hair a much needed and let it air dry naturally. The first step for air drying is to use hair products for air drying instead of blow drying; a good absorbent towel is also a plus. An absorbent towel will suck up excess moisture and speed up drying time. A good leave-on conditioner will keep your hair from becoming frizzy. Use the absorbent towel to remove excess moisture then gently blot your hair dry. Do not rub your hair. Rubbing will damage the strands, and cause frizzy hair and split ends. You want to keep the hair shafts as smooth as possible.
4. CHANGE YOUR NATURAL PARTING every three months to avoid the thinning of that portion. Though there is not necessarily a good or a bay way to part you hair, what matters most is that you are comfortable and confident with the style you choose.
5. IF YOU HAVE UNDUE HAIR LOSS, DANDRUFF, or any other persistent hair-related problem, check with your doctor to see if you have a hormonal imbalance, scalp infection, disease, or are suffering from physical, emotional or environmental stress. Then follow the course of treatment the doctor prescribes.
