Oils that are too thick, too heavy in texture, will make your hair softer. When it comes to taking care of thin, lifeless hair, it's better to use products with silicone, such as dimethicone or cyclomethicone. These substances will coat the hair strands with a thin film, creating fuller hairs and not looking greasy. The silicone stays in place even after you wash it off.
2. Eat fish and nuts for healthy hair Nutrient-rich foods that are good for the body will also help promote stronger hair. The most typical of which are salmon and nuts. The protein and omega-3 fats found in these foods will help you create a healthier scalp. Leafy vegetables, legumes and carrots are also good for your figure. Be careful with extreme diets aimed at rapid weight loss, as this can deprive your body of important nutrients, leading to hair breakage or loss.
3. Do not use too hot water Hot water can strip the hair's protective oil layer, this oil layer acts as a natural conditioner, when lost, the shine of the hair can also disappear. This doesn't mean you have to take a cold shower to avoid dull hair. Instead, use lukewarm water to wash your hair as a simple but effective hair care secret. Combine with scalp strokes by massaging while shampooing.
4. Repair Hair Surface with Protein If you frequently style your hair with hot tools - or do a lot of coloring, bleaching or perming, you can damage your hair's protective outer layer, resulting As a result, the hair will "split". So how to take care of this hair type? There are now products for hair that have interfered with chemicals and excessive heat, helping to heal the damage. If your hair is often permed, look for conditioners that contain protein, which will penetrate the hair shaft and repair split ends. The fix is only temporary on the surface and the effects only last until the next shampoo, so you need to use them regularly.

Rubbing oil into the scalp can make the condition worse. Medicated shampoos are the best remedy and should only be used by brands from a consulting pharmacy or a dermatologist. Let the special shampoo penetrate the scalp for 5 minutes and then be sure to rinse the shampoo thoroughly.
7. Skip the high-powered blow dryer You might love to have a dryer with a high-speed blower to save precious minutes when styling your hair. But when comparing hair dryers, the researchers found that they all dried hair in about the same amount of time. However, high-powered blowers will cause much more noise than others.
8. Brush your hair less to limit hair loss Over-brushing will cause more hair loss. In fact, some hair loss is normal, most people lose between 50-100 hairs per day. Hair is a part of the hair that has stopped growing, but to not lose more hair than usual, use combs with glossy bristles and never comb wet hair.
9. Let your hair down every night Ponytails and braids are great ways to show off your personal style. But when you tie your hair too tightly, they can break your hair and damage your roots. Hairstyles that are too tight around the clock can also cause hair to fall out. Letting your hair out every night is also a simple but effective hair care.
10. Don't let the brands clean your wallet What do you really get when you spend extra money on specialty hair products? Consumer Reports tested the product on 1,700 ponytail samples and found that overpriced shampoos were no better than cheap shampoos. Therefore, you should only choose shampoos and conditioners designed specifically for your hair type, such as shampoos for oily, fine, or color-treated hair.
11. Use gentle chemicals to color gray hair Hair not only changes color as we age, but also becomes weaker and slower to grow. That means damaged hair will not be able to grow quickly by cutting hair. Chemicals used on hair in the elderly should be gentler to avoid damage to the hair.
12. “Calm down” frizzy winter hair Humidity is what causes frizzy days. Static electricity occurs more when the air is dry. This means more tangles in the winter months and in the desert climates of the Southwest. We can use air conditioners to prevent static electricity. A pH-balanced shampoo can also soothe frizzy hair, especially for colored or greasy hair.
13. Don't comb curls with a comb Curly hair often breaks and becomes dry and tangled. Gently using a curling iron will help curls look better than with combs.

17. Wet your hair before entering the pool Avoid the harmful effects of chlorine by rinsing your hair before entering the pool or wearing a swimming cap. If your hair is really wet, it won't absorb as much from the chemical-laden pool. Use a pH balanced product to protect your hair.

Even blow drying with excessive force can damage hair. We should only gently wet our hair with a towel after washing. If you have a damaged hair, take a break from styling. As the damaged hair grows out, the new hair will be healthier.
