10 Do's Of Great Hair Care
If the amount of money consumers spend on hair care products
annually is any indication, most people are concerned about the
appearance of their hair and strive to attain beautiful, healthy
and stylish locks. In fact, most will go to any lengths to
achieve their desired look. From professional salon treatments
to over-the-counter serums, hair care is a big business.
The only problem is that while many people are buying the right
hair care products for their hair, they forget to follow basic
hair care regimens that will guarantee the health and beauty of
their tresses. Additionally, many are also causing needless
damage to their hair by participating in unhealthy hair care
behavior.
So, what should you do to make sure that your hair stays
healthy, shiny and strong? Here are 10 essential "must dos" of
great hair care.
Hair care dos
1. Use the right hair care products for your specific hair type.
If you're hair is damaged, dry or color treated, use hair care
products formulated to repair this damage and add much-needed
shine and resiliency. On the other hand, if your hair is oily,
use a deep-cleansing shampoo and light conditioner to keep your
hair looking its best. The right products should be at the base
of your hair care routine.
2. Get a trim every 6 to 8 weeks as part of your regular hair
care routine. Even if you are growing your hair longer, it is
still vital to make a routine trim a major part of your hair
care routine. Snipping ends before they split will keep your
hair looking healthy and save you hair care headaches in the
end.
3. Protect your hair with hair care products that contain
sunscreen.
4. Shampoo your hair only when it is dirty. Contrary to popular
belief, you do not need to shampoo your hair daily. Doing so can
make your hair dry and hard to work with.
5. Turn to a professional for all of your hair care needs. Yes,
kitchen beauticians and friends do not cost as much as putting
your hair care needs in the hands of a
qualified professional,
but they often result in blunders that end up costing you more
money than if you went to the salon in the first place.
6. Use professional conditioning hair coloring systems. There
are many hair coloring systems on the market, and the ones you
choose can have a great impact on your hair care costs. Simply
put: choose a system that causes minimal damage and conditions
hair as it colors. This will save you money when it comes to
conditioning hair care products.
7. Stick with one chemical service. In order to keep your hair
as healthy as it can be, ask your hair care professional to
recommend only one chemical service: color or perm. By only
using the service that is perfect for your particular style and
needs, you will ensure that your hair stays healthier.
8. Add Texture. By adding texture to your style, through perm or
cut, you can greatly reduce the time it takes to style and
perform your daily hair care routine. And you will look
sensational.
9. Choose hair color that compliments your style. With all of
the professional coloring techniques available, this part of
your hair care regimen has never been easier. From chunky
highlights to soft color, you can greatly enhance your style
with the right technique.
10. Comb your hair with a wide-toothed come when it is wet to
prevent breakage. The only time you should use a brush during
your hair care routine is when your hair is barely damp or dry.
In the end, hair care is a very individualized and personal
thing. Feel free to add your own flair and style to your hair
care routine, but remember to include hair care principles that
will benefit your hair and avoid those that damage it.
