How you wash your hair and the kind of products you use and styling you do plays a big part in how healthy it is.
If you want to know the secret of always having a good hair day, read on.
Wash oily hair more frequently
How often you wash your hair should be based on how much oil your scalp produces. So if your scalp is oily, you may need to wash it every day. If you have dyed hair, it may be drier, so you may want to wash it less frequently. As you get older, your scalp makes less oil, so you may not need to shampoo as often. But if you see flakes in your hair, this is a sign that you may not be shampooing enough - and it can lead to dandruff.
Concentrate shampoo on the scalp
When you wash your hair, concentrate on the scalp, rather than washing the whole head, as this can create flyaway hair that is dull and coarse.
Use conditioner after every shampoo
Using conditioner can improve the look of damaged or weathered hair by increasing shine, decreasing static electricity, improving strength and offering some protection from harmful UV rays. Put the conditioner on the tips of the hair. Because conditioners can make fine hair look limp, they only should be used on the ends of the hair - not on the scalp.
Choose a shampoo and conditioner formulated specifically for your hair type
For example, if you color your hair, use a shampoo for color-treated hair. If your hair is damaged or chemically treated, consider a “2-in-1” shampoo. Regardless of cost, many shampoo and conditioner brands provide the same benefits.
