Regular Trims
The biggest
mistake you can make when trying to grow your hair is skipping regular haircuts. It is very important that you go for regular trims to get rid of any
split ends. Removing split ends can help prevent split hair traveling further
up the strand, weakening the hair and making it prone to breakage.
Deep Condition
Deep
condition your hair at least once a week to minimize split ends and to keep
your hair in top condition. When getting
your next haircut why not request a deep conditioning treatment.
Don’t Over Shampoo
Washing your
hair everyday strips your hair of its natural oils which will dry it out. The
natural oils that your scalp produces are beneficial and necessary to maintain
the health of your hair. So give the shampooing a rest and allow for the natural
oils to return. To tie you over between
washing invest in a good dry shampoo.
Relax on the Heat
Avoid using heated appliances as much
as possible. Over using your blow dryer, curling iron or flat iron will all
contribute to dry damaged hair. Using intense heat can cause the hair follicle
to break off which will not allow the hair to grow long.
Wear Protective Hairstyles
Hairstyles
such as buns, braids and up-styles are great protective hairstyles as the ends
of your hair are kept moist as they are not exposed to the air.
Be Gentle
Be gentle
when brushing, detangling and styling your hair. Never brush your hair when its
wet this stretches your hair and makes it brittle, always use a wide tooth comb to brush it while it's wet.
Cover your Hair at Night
Sleep on a
silk pillow case or wrap your hair in a silk scarf to prevent your hair
becoming dry and broken.
Balanced Diet
Increase
your intake of protein which is essential for healthy hair growth. Amino acids
and B complex vitamins are other primary nutrients required by hair.
Massage
Massage your
scalp daily. This will help to stimulate the hair follicles and to enhance the
growth of hair.
