Proper Hair Care Routine l How to Get Healthy Hair
- Even though I put on hair oil my hair gets dry like 70% very soon. Now our friend here might have dry scalp. If you guys have dry scalp it might be good to wash your hair just twice a week. If you wash your hair too frequently, then your scalp may become even more dry.
- I heard washing your hair everyday is not good. I try to wash once in two days, but I can't. My hair feels dirty and my scalp becomes itchy. Plus, I sweat a lot even though I don't do anything.
- So I decide to wash my hair every day only in the morning. Sometimes I wash twice a day. Wow. So diligent! Now our friend here might have oily scalp. If you guys have oily scalp, it might be better to wash your hair more frequently than those with dry scalp.
- I've already found three bad habits. Number one. The amount of shampoo you use. Now it's easy to think that it's better to use more shampoo. But no! This means that it's harder to rinse it off thoroughly and leftover shampoo may stimulate the scalp. Bad habit number two.
- Do not shampoo your hair right after you soak it. If you shampoo your hair right away after you soak your hair you can't thoroughly risne off the dust and waste on your hair and scalp. If you have a lot of waste on the surface of your scalp there will be less foam.
- It is more important to remove the waste on your scalp than your hair. So clean your scalp first, Now I will share proper hair washing tips. Proper hair wash habit number one. Wash your hair like you are massaging the scalp with your fingertips. Be careful not to stimulate your scalp with your fingernails.
- But the lower scalp might not be rinsed perfectly, So don't forget not to shampoo with only one posture.
- Proper hair wash habit number three. Wash hair with water around your body temperature.
- Over 80% of hair is made up of protein and the protein hardens when it gets warm. So if you wash your hair with hot water, the hair protein hardens and decreases treatment effects. On the other hand, washing your hair with cold water lowers cleansing efficiency and residue of shampoo is prone to be left on your scalp.
- Proper hair wash habit number four. Do not apply treatment or conditioner on the scalp. Most of the treatments or conditioner products contain silicone to make your hair soft and glossy.
- The silicone ingredients are hard to be rinsed, and if they pile up on the scalp It will cause allergy and inflammation which can even cause hair loss. Treatment or conditioning products should be applied from the end of your hair at least five centimeters away from your scalp.
- If you let your hair dry naturally because you think hair dryer is bad or if you keep your hair up in a towel for a long time your scalp is left in a damp environment.
- in this case the germs increase and can cause scalp dermatitis or even hair loss. Also, the more your hair stays wet, the more it absorbs water and damages the cuticles. Unless you dry your hair with hot air It's actually better to dry your hair quickly and efficiently using a hair dryer.
- Number one. Remove water from your hair as much as you can before hair dryer. If you do not remove moisture enough, you will have to use the hair dryer for longer. Rather than rubbing it, it is better to gently Pat using a towel. It's also good to use absorbent towel. Step number two. Apply hair essence or serum before using the dryer.Hair essence products protects your hair from the heat from the hairdryer. The end of the hair has less nutrients and moisture. So make sure to apply essence first to the ends of your hair. Number three. Dry your scalp first. The wind should be blown from the roots of the hair to the ends of the hair.
- Do not use hot air to dry your hair quickly. Hot air increases the scalp's temperature and it stimulates the hair follicles. Also, it dries the scalp and destroys the water oil balance of your scalp. Use the hairdryer from a distance and try to dry with cold air if possible.
- If you don't have enough time switch between cold and hot air. This is more effective than just using cold air. Also, if you finish off your blow-dry with cooled air, it'll maintain the style of your hair for longer.
Now let's talk about some bad hair care habits,
- Number one. Wearing same hair parts for a long time. Scalp between your hair parts is exposed to UV lights. So if you don't switch up your parts frequently then only one part of your skin gets damaged. This causes your scalp to weaken and this may even lead to hair loss.
- For healthy hair, it is good to change your hair parts once every six months or a year. For Healthy hair, it is good to switch up your hair parts once at least six months or a year. If you dry your hair in the opposite direction of your parts after washing it It is easier to style your hair and change your hair parts.
- Ironing wet hair. Strong heat on wet hair deprives moisture and causes your hair to look frizzy and less smooth. Even if you're busy, even if you're in a rush try to iron your hair when your hair is 80% dry.
- I used to squeeze shampoo into my hands and lather it right away on my scalp. But today I lathered my shampoo in my hands first before shampooing, and I think this method is better. So I'm going to continue shampooing like this. My skin! Covering my pores, My hair got so soft. Also, I learned that I need to fix my habits when washing my hair because there were a lot of things I was doing improperly.
