We all love wavy long luscious hair, don’t we? But managing them is no less than a task. Here are a few tips and remedies by GoNirog Healthcare on how to get those perfectly shiny and smooth shafts.
- The first step in taking care of your hair is to know whether it is dry or oily. Whatever products you choose for your hair, should be based on the type of your hair. Shampoo for dry hair are designed to add moisture to them whereas those designed for oily hair help in eliminating excess oil. If you have oily hair you need to shampoo daily and in case your hair is dry, you can shampoo after every two to three days.
- Massage your scalp with a gentle pressure which will evoke blood circulation and help hair follicles grow faster. You may even add a few drops of your regular hair oil.Try this therapy before going to bed or an hour before taking a shower. This will provide nourishment to the scalp which will ultimately result into lovely looking hair.
- Although hair fall and thin hair are generally a result of improper diet and harsh hair products, it can sometimes occur due to reasons other than that, such as medical condition. Getting a checkup done will not harm in any way. Some of the common medical problems which result into unusual amount of hair fall include anemia, depression/stress, thyroid problem and deficiency of iron.
- Great hair is nothing but the reflection of a good health. Start eating right. Add more greens to your diet. You may consume spinach, eggs, bananas, beans, seafood and cauliflower. The iron content in these foods is way to high to boost natural hair growth.
- Cut down the intake of processed, oily and unhealthy foods from your diet. Say absolutely NO to alcohol, caffeine and nicotine products. Drink plenty of water throughout your day. Adding coconut or olive oil to your cooking may also benefit in hair growth.
- Condition your hair regularly. A good conditioner not only makes your hair soft and smooth but also leaves it looking fuller and thicker.
- Avoid using unnecessary chemical products on your hair. If you like to flaunt colored hair, do it the natural way. Organic hair dyes are readily available in the market, try one of them instead of investing on chemical products which do nothing but damage to your delicate hair.
- Lastly, use a good quality hairbrush with smooth bristles that do not damage or harm your sensitive scalp.
