Stop Losing Your Hair Now!
Are you tired of finding strands of your hair in the sink, on
the counter, or in the shower? No matter what age you are, no
one likes to lose hair; everyone would rather keep it implanted
on their scalps, where it belongs. Of course, if you have plenty
to spare, you may not mind losing a few down the drain. But for
those who are concerned about the exodus of their locks, here
are some preventative measures to take before resorting to hair
transplants or chemical processes.
1. Wash your hair every other day. Some people wash it daily,
but as long as your hair remains manageable and not greasy, you
can probably switch to alternative days. This will protect weak
new hair follicles, giving them a chance to develop more fully.
It also means you will be brushing or combing your hair less
often, which means less stress on your scalp and strands. 2.
Forget the 100 strokes a day. A generation or two ago, women
taught their daughters to brush their hair 100 strokes daily.
But professionals have come to realize that lengthy brushing may
loosen hair strands and pull out excess hair. A dozen strokes or
so ought to be enough for most heads of hair, but consult with
your hair care stylist if you have questions or feel your hair
needs more attention.
3. Use a detangle product. If your hair is long or thick, or
for any reason is prone to tangles or split ends, apply a
conditioner that defuses tangles or a detangling cream that
smoothes them before combing. When
you do comb or brush your
hair, it will be easier to manage and result in less breakage.
4. Don't overuse hair care products. Too much spray, gel, or
mousse, along with too much heat treatment can cause damage over
time. Use products like these sensibly. Keep an eye on their
effect. If your hair starts looking dry or greasy, or if the
ends look dull or split, make an appointment with your hair
stylist or try a deep conditioning product at home.
5. Protect your hair from the elements. Avoid too much sun on a
hot day. Keep your head covered in pelting rain, cold, snow, or
sleet. Humidify your home when the air gets dry. Steps like
these will help to keep your hair strong and safe from
potentially damaging elements.
6. Comb wet hair gently. Begin with the lower layers and gently
comb in the direction the hair takes naturally. Work your way up
to the scalp, carefully working through tangles or snarls. Don't
use a brush on wet hair, as it can cause breakage.
7. Give your hair extra care after swimming in a chemically
treated pool. You may have to wear a swimming cap or give your
hair a conditioning treatment afterward.
Taking a few precautions like these can help to reduce the
amount of lost hair and broken strands that you will find in the
sink from now on.
