10 Pro Tips To Make Easy, Beautiful Hair.
Are you looking for tips on how to have beautiful hair?
First of all, run away from all these so-called treatments "miraculous" and expensive ...
Why ? Because these products are more concerned with cleaning up your wallet than your scalp!
Instead, try to make good daily habits that will make a difference in your day-to-day life.
What are these good habits to take?
We have selected for you, 10 pro tips to easily have beautiful hair.
Don't worry, no need to go to salons and break the bank ...
Everything can be done at home for your comfort. Look :
1. Avoid devices that heat your hair
Yes, hair does not like heat! If you're used to using a curling or straightening iron, this might be the time to take the plunge.
Celebrity hairstylist Michael Dueñas recommends using steam rollers instead.
Why ? They are gentler on the hair because they are not too hot. They are heated only by the steam which passes through the foam of the roller.
But if you absolutely must use a device that heats up to style your hair (blow dryers, curling irons, chopsticks, flat irons, hot rollers), try using a spray protection on the hair.
2. Sleep on silk
The smooth texture of silk does not damage the hair cuticle when you sleep. This is not the case with cotton.
Silk leaves your hair smoother, says famous stylist Marcus Francis.
No more morning ears! It's still the dream, isn't it? For that, all you need to do is get a single silk pillowcase like this.
3. Keep hair clean
We're sure you've heard of the “No Shampoo” movement before. If not, you can read our article on the subject here.
This consists of no longer using shampoo to wash your hair so as not to damage the scalp.
But Marcus Francis invites us to listen to our hair:
“As long as women use natural products without toxic products, they can wash their hair more frequently,” he explains.
"By washing your hair regularly, you can reduce split ends, have better texture, and leave hair looking clean and shiny."
So how often should you wash your hair? Jeffrey J. Miller, M.D, assistant professor of dermatology suggests these simple rules:
Wash them every day or every other day if you live in a polluted or humid city. Wash them every 3-4 days if you live in a rural environment away from pollutants or in a dry climate.
And if your hair is normal or combination, with dry ends and oily roots, divide the hair mass in half and wash the roots more often than the ends.
Use healthy products without added toxic products that damage your hair, such as this shampoo for example or this organic one.
4. Moisturize your scalp
The skin of your scalp is like that of the face: it needs care. Hydrate it!
This will provide a healthy base for the hair, explains Riawna Capri, who is a beauty coach. She adds, "The rule is to do a moisturizer every time you shampoo."
But you can go even further. Even if you don't blow dry your hair every time, still use a protective cream, says the stylist.
It can reduce frizz, dry hair and split ends, and even protect your color!
Do not hesitate to make masks like this regularly to hydrate them.
5. Eat well
All the attention we pay to our hair is also related to what we eat.
Much of what we eat makes our hair look more or less beautiful.
According to Dr. Robert Dorin, hair growth specialist: "What you eat plays a very important role in shine, growth and volume".
"A diet rich in iron, zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, and protein will help stimulate hair follicles for growth."
Dr. Dorin recommends alternating lean red meat, chicken, and fish throughout the week to improve hair well-being.
6. Limit sun exposure
When we expose ourselves too much to the sun, we know that our skin is in pain and we know the damage that this causes.
Well for the hair, it's the same thing!
To prevent sun damage, stylist Marcelo suggests applying a conditioner like this at least every 2 days.
Reasonable application from mid-length to the ends of the hair will help fight damage from the three big enemies of summer: UV rays, wind and salt water.
And if you're heading to the beach where the sun will be shining, apply a generous dose of sun protection.
Apply this product to damp hair before going out, and repeat the operation after each swim.
7. Detangle your hair gently
Before you force your comb through your tangled hair, think about what you're doing!
The goal is to do it gently and be gentle with them so as not to damage them.
Use a wide tooth comb for particularly tangled hair.
Remember to always untangle the ends first, then gradually go up to the top of the head.
This method will allow you to take care of your hair. Plus, no more screaming in the bathroom :-)
8. Cut your hair regularly
You might be tempted not to have your hair cut, especially if you've made a decision to let it grow out.
But to make sure they grow in great shape, you have to cut them regularly.
Meri Kate O'Connor, senior colorist recalls that a haircut should be scheduled every 6 to 8 weeks. This prevents split ends, and hair that splits or becomes thinner at the end.
"When the hair splits, it goes all the way up the hair, it gets so thin that it breaks."
And once your hair does part, there is no way to fix it. So cut them to avoid damaging breakage to your entire hair.
9. Avoid too hot water
When washing your hair, don't use too hot water, warns David Edery, owner of salons in Houston.
Too much heat can cause your hair to fall back in volume, leaving you with flattened hair.
Instead, go for temperate water. Why ? Because this temperature allows you to have a beautiful foam.
In addition, it allows them to be rinsed more thoroughly than with hot water.
And during the last rinse (after the detangling), put a cold jet on the hair to tighten the scales of the hair. They will keep the necessary nutrients and be brighter.
10. Use the right amount of product
If you're covering your entire head in shampoo or conditioner, well, that's not the right way!
You don't need that much. Not to mention the fact that it is not economical, it is also not good for the hair.
Concentrate the shampoo only on the top of the scalp, where you need it most: excess sebum, impurities.
The ends do not need to be stripped thoroughly.
The same goes for the conditioner. Apply it just halfway through the hair to the ends. Where hair is drier and prone to split ends.
