Shea Butter: Healthy hair is something that we all want, and that’s why the sales of products that are supposed to give people healthy hair are so huge. However, most of the time those products are simply not what they’re cracked up to be. There are many things we can do to prevent hair damage, and to treat damaged hair. Here are some great tips and ideas you can use for healthy hair.
Hair Cuts:
It’s important to keep your hair trimmed. You don’t have to get a lot of length cut off to maintain healthy hair. An half an is fine, and should remove all split ends from your hair. Experts suggest getting your hair cut about every 6 to 8 weeks in order to maintain healthy hair. Getting rid of the split ends before they weaken the hair and cause breakages will prevent problems.
Shampoo:
It is not necessary to shampoo your hair every day. In fact, it can be damaging. When you shampoo your hair every day, you strip your hair of natural oils. This can cause your hair to become brittle and dry. Instead, only wash your hair every other day. Another tip is to make sure you’re not using deep cleansing shampoo regularly. There really is no need to use this every time you wash your hair. Deep cleansing shampoos are for removing build up and can leave your hair dried out and frizzled if you use it regularly. If you are concerned with build up, use a deep cleansing shampoo every couple of weeks.
Conditioner:
It’s a pretty good idea to use conditioner every time you shampoo your hair. This can help hydrate your hair, and is also good for tangles. Leave in conditioner is fine as long as it doesn’t weigh the hair down and make it appear oily. Don’t forget that you shouldn’t brush your hair when it’s wet, as it stretches easily and can break. Instead, wait until the hair dries to gently comb it out.
