Hair Care Tips for Healthy Hair

No matter what your hair type, there are easy steps you can follow to help keep your hair looking and feeling healthy and beautiful!

Don’t Brush Wet Hair
Wet hair is weaker and more susceptible to breakage, so avoid brushing your hair until it is mostly dry. Try combing your hair while you’re still in the shower, using a wide-tooth comb. It’s also best to wait until your hair is 60%-80% dry before you start blow drying it. Try patting your hair with a towel before blow drying.
​

Use Lower Settings on Hair Dryer
When using a hair dryer and other styling tools like curling irons, use a low setting to help prevent damage. Also make sure to use your hair dryer’s attachments to create distance between your hair and the hot metal in the dryer, which can burn your hair. 


Don’t Condition Your Roots
To avoid weighing your hair down, apply conditioner only from mid-lengths to ends. If your hair is extremely dry, try a deep conditioner: apply conditioner to clean, damp hair, put on a plastic cap, and wait 15-30 minutes before rinsing.


Rinse Conditioned Hair with Cold Water
After conditioning your hair, rinse it with cold water, which helps avoid frizz by sealing the cuticle, making it harder for moisture to enter the hair follicle.


Trim Long Hair Frequently
Longer hair requires more care. Frequent trims (every 6-8 weeks) and conditioning the ends every other day will help to prevent your hair from drying out.

It's interesting to know that brushing your hair when it is wet will make it more susceptible to breakage. My sister and I are looking for advice to take care of our hair in the winter, and I'm helping her with information. I will let her know about your recommendations to keep her hair in good shape during the winter.
