1
Trimming
If you are suffering from split hair ends, you could consider trimming your hair at home. The ideal trim length could vary between ¼ to ½ depending on how good or bad the hair condition is. If you have never trimmed your hair at home, you might want to have it done professionally from a hair stylist. -
2
Shampooing schedule
Using a lot of shampoo every week can also damage your hair. The ideal time to shampoo your hair is every alternate day, that is, three to four times a week. -
3
Using conditioner
If your hair are rough and have a lot of frizz, consider using a conditioner. This will leave your hair smooth, shining and silky and will look and feel nice. -
4
Rinsing
Always rinse your hair well after shampooing and using a conditioner. Sometimes people do not rinse their hair properly and that can cause damage like dryness and dandruff. You can also consider using leave-in conditioner which will keep your hair shining all day. -
5
Handling wet hair
One of the main reasons people face hair loss is due to the fact that they start combing wet hair. This is not at all suggested. Wet hair are weak and can break easily. Consider drying off your hair with a towel before combing them. If absolutely required, try using a wide toothed comb to comb your hair. -
6
Oiling
Hair need to be oiled properly every week at least once or twice in order to keep them healthy and shining. There are many types of oils available out there but using olive or coconut oil can be best for your hair. Keep the oil on for some time before washing it off. -
7
Avoid chemical treatments
Using chemical treatments like colouring, streaking and the like can also be damaging for your hair. Avoid these treatments as much as you can. In addition, blow drying or ironing your hair a lot can also leave them weak and rough.
