Hair Care Tips

Diet:
Your hair needs a balanced, nutritious diet to stay healthy. Hair revitalizing products won't help if you are not nourishing your body. Eating a balanced, nutritious diet is the first step in achieving healthy and beautiful hair.

Hair-friendly foods are those packed with proteins, minerals, essential fatty acids and water, so include plenty of leafy vegetables, fruit, fish and dairy products and drink at least eight glasses of water daily.

Hair Care: Try to use natural and organic hair care products as much as possible. Many commercial shampoos and conditioners contain chemicals that in the long run can damage the hair.

Regular shampooing, rinsing and conditioning with natural products can help keep hair healthy and beautiful. Look for natural hair care products with wheat germ, jojoba, almond or coconut oil, keratin, vitamins such as biotin, panthenol, vitamin A, E and essential oils.

When applying shampoo, massage the scalp gently, as this activates circulation and energy flow and stimulates hair at the roots.

Rinse with lukewarm (not hot) water. For that extra shine mix the juice of one lemon with a cup of water in your final rinse.

An all natural way to eliminate shampoo build-up and toxins in your hair is to rinse with apple cider vinegar once a week. This will restore the acid mantle, which is essential to a healthy scalp and clean, shiny hair.

Comb through wet hair with a wide-toothed comb and avoid brushing at this stage as the hair will be quite elastic and can be stretched to the breaking point.

If you are fortunate enough to have natural curls, waves or low-maintenance hair, it is always best to allow the hair to dry naturally whenever possible. For most of us, the use of hair dryers and curling irons are a necessity for teasing our hair into a required style, plus they are extremely convenient for hectic lives, the downside is that direct heat tends to make the hair brittle especially if overdone.

If you follow these simple rules you can lessen the risk of damage:

First pat the excess moisture out of your hair with a towel. Do not rub, vigorous towel drying actually damages the hair shaft.

Comb hair with a wide-toothed comb and fluff up lightly with your fingers. Try to keep your hair dryer under the maximum heat setting and at a distance of at least 6 inches from your hair and move the dryer constantly around your head. Protect the ends of your hair by bending your head and blow drying with your hair hanging down. It will also give your hair more body. Leave hair slightly damp.

Tips: For extra volume, take small sections of the hair and use a spray bottle filled with water to dampen the roots. Blow dry on a faster speed rather than a higher heat setting, gently lifting the hair away from the direction it would naturally fall.

For sexy scrunchy curls mix a teaspoon of sea salts in water and fill a spray bottle. Spray on to damp hair and "scrunch" by using your hands whilst holding the hair close to the scalp then leave to dry. If you need it to dry faster you can blow dry but leave very slightly damp and allow hair to finish drying naturally.
