I
strongly believe that the cut and style of your hair can transform your
look and personality from grossly ugly to a glamorous look. If your hair
has the wrong cut for your face, it can detract from your appearance the
charm and glamour which is innate to every face.
The mishandling of hair
too, can lead your crowning glory to become the worst feature of your
appearance. Thus, to maintain your crowning glory or to achieve such a
goal, you need to take care. Here are few tips from our very own hair
expert.
 The
first step to beautiful hair is cleanliness. You must wash your hair every
alternate day or even daily, if necessary. This will not harm your hair as
long as you make sure of the quality of the shampoo. Never compromise on
the quality. Also, use glycerin on your hair for conditioning, for around
20 minutes before shampoo.
Your
shampoo and conditioner should be used separately. Both have entirely
different functions and hence must be used separately for adequate
results.
Henna
has a very drying effect on your hair. So, avoid using it and instead
choose a quality hair dye to color your hair.
Always
trim your hair at least once in six weeks. This will help you maintain
your hairstyle and also keep split ends away.
Go
in for hair massage with glycerin once a week followed by steaming your
head with a wet towel. This will ensure that the glycerin is absorbed down
to the roots of the hair and help condition the follicles and the shaft
alike.
Never
brush your hair when it is wet, as this only leads to their breakage. Use
a wide toothed comb to disentangle your hair after shampoo.
Avoid
blow dry to style your hair as far as possible. The heat leads to
weakening of the hair roots. If your cut requires a blow dry to style, you
must first let your hair to be half dry and only then use the dryer to
style. This will reduce the duration your hair is exposed to direct heat
from the dryer.
Always
change the brand of shampoo and the conditioner you use, every two months.
This will help your hair to avoid developing resistance to the products
and greatly improve their efficacy on your hair. This also reduces the
chances of causing a build up, that is, the deposition of chemicals from
your shampoo on your hair shaft, after regular and continuous use of a
particular brand of shampoo. As a result, you will find your hair having
that much coveted shine and bounce.
If
you are using any herbal products on your hair, then make sure that you
find out the ingredients used in the product and also do a patch test on
the inside of your elbows. This precaution will hold you in good stead,
since you will be able to avoid harmful chemicals that might be added to
the herbal product and also save you from allergic reactions, which can
become very painful.
And
last but not the least, it is not, so, important as to what you put on
your hair but what you put in your hair. For this, you need to eat right
and be healthy. So, remember, for healthy and shining hair you need a
healthy body.
