Hair should be taken care of differently in each season. You should change your hair care routine in colder months to prevent damage to your hair. Below are some great hair care tips that you can follow to make sure your hair stays healthy this winter.
Wash your hair every other day instead of once per day. Some people can even get by with washing their hair every third day. If your hair becomes oily between washings, put a small amount of baby powder at the root of your hair and brush it through. This will absorb the oil and make your hair look much better.
When you wash your hair do not use hot water. Instead use only lukewarm water. When you are ready to do the final rinse on your hair, you should rinse it in cold water. This will help seal your hair’s cuticles, which will help your hair be much more shiny when it is dry.
When you are finished washing your hair, blot it dry with a towel instead of rubbing it. Rubbing your hair with a towel can damage it and cause you to have many more tangles. Hair is much weaker while it is wet, and you should only use a wide-toothed comb to comb it.
Wash your hair with a type of clarifying shampoo once per month. This will remove any product that has built up on your hair.
Use a deep conditioner on your hair once every two weeks. This will help your hair become much more healthy and shiny. Getting a trim every six to eight weeks removes any split ends that you may have, which will also make your hair look more healthy.
Using a steel brush when you are blow drying your hair will help your hair to dry faster. The steel brush will absorb some of the heat from your blow dryer. Always use some type of heat protectant spray on your hair before you use any type of heat on it to protect your hair.
You can easily give your hair more volume using hairspray. Flip your head upside down, spray a small amount of hairspray at the roots of your hair, and then flip your hair over. You should instantly notice much more volume with your hair.
Following these tips should help you to have much healthier hair. Taking care of your hair properly is very important if you want it to always look healthy and shiny.
