Our Guide to Ultimate Summer Hair Health

We may be enjoying the start of summer and wanting to start letting our hair down! For those wanting to achieve thicker, shinier and healthier locks we have some beauty tips for advocating hair health.

Hair care is challenging to get right, even for the most experienced of us out there. But if you have dry or damaged hair it can be even harder to reduce the early signs of hair loss, or even keep hair in a healthy condition. However, with the option of a  hair transplant available to you offered by professional hair transplant services like hair transplants – New Jersey Hair Restoration Center, you can restore the early signs of hair loss with ease without paying a big fortune. Nevertheless, if you are not experiencing any hair loss, there are a number of changes that you can make to help keep your hair healthy with ease.

Here, we are giving you our ultimate guide to hair health for long flowing locks all year round.

Reduce The Use Of Heat

One of the biggest mistakes you can make when caring for your hair is over styling with a vast amount of heat. Not only does this dry out the hair, but it can also lead to the hair becoming brittle and breaking. In order to care for your hair daily, reduce the amount of heat you use when styling and opt for alternative methods such as air drying or twisting. This is vital to keeping the hair strong and locking in moisture without drying it out.

Use Heat Protectant

If you have a hair type that doesn’t allow you to simply brush and go, then it is vital to use a heat protectant. This can be purchased at your local beauty store and is designed to ensure that moisture is locked in without applying harsh chemicals to the hair.

Apply to the hair when wet and work through from root to tip for full protection before blow-drying and styling.

For extra protection on the ends of the hair, apply an argon oil to the tips as this will help to reduce the signs of split ends and keep the moisture in where it is needed most.

Shower Less

Although this may sound strange, another way to care for your hair is to shower less. By showering every day, you are stripping the hair of the natural oils, causing it to produce more and get greasy faster. By showering less, your hair can behave as it naturally would and produce the right amount of oil to keep it clean and healthy.

It is recommended that you shower only two or three times per week in order to keep the hair healthy and ensure that you are not stripping it of the natural oils.

Use The Right Brush

Another unexpected cause of your hair loss is not using the right brush. Though it may seem tempting to get a fluffy brush for your hair, this can cause more damage than you would first think as it does not detangle the knots it makes, instead it makes it much worse. By using a long-bristled brush, you have the strength in the bristles to detangle the hair, allowing you to work through damp hair without causing damage to the hair at either the root or the ends.

Regardless of the first step you take to caring for your hair, you can be sure that there is the perfect solution for your individual hair type to detangle tame frizz and add shine for the luscious locks without the need of harsh chemicals.
