Having luscious, healthy, glowing locks is every woman’s dream. The truth is, in the pursuit of this, many of the harsh chemicals we put into our hair can cause dryness and damage in the process. Our hair is actually very fragile and requires a little TLC to keep it healthy and glowing. The answer isn’t in those hair care products. Here are five ways you can fix your dead hair and bring it to life again.
1. Step away from the shampoo
I know, I know — you’ve been taught that keeping your hair clean is the key to healthy, glowing locks. The truth is, if you’re washing your hair every day, then you’re scrubbing away those natural oils that your hair produces that actually help it shine!
It might be time to take a look at what’s in that shampoo bottle as well. Shampoo tends to dry out your hair and can actually set it up for breakage. Try reaching for the bottle every other day to give your hair a much-needed break in between.
2. Go natural
If you’re like me, you tend to reach for the expensive options on the shelf, believing they will take better care of your hair. You’re actually paying for all the excess chemicals they have squeezed into those tiny bottles, which could be causing damage to your hair.
There are a number of amazing natural products that can actually be found in your kitchen cupboard, which nourish and feed your hair in the process. Here are a somethings that you can try:
Apple Cider Vinegar: Dilute a quarter cup with water and use it as a rinse of your hair to wash off hairspray, gel and other buildup.
Olive Oil: Olive Oil is great for encouraging your hair to grow. Substitute it as a conditioner and enjoy all the benefits.
3. Put down the hair dryer (and other heating tools)
One of the main culprits of hair damage is heat. That’s why if you want healthy looking locks, it’s time to say (a teary) goodbye to your hairdryer, curling iron, and hair straightener. Just let your hair air dry and you’ll notice the difference almost overnight.
That doesn’t mean you can’t pull out the dryer every now and then when you’re in a rush, or your hair needs a little extra help that day. Just make sure it isn’t your go-to for daily use.
4. Stay out of the sun
As you might imagine, the sun is another form of heat we want to avoid on our hair. It can make it dry, and cause fading and thinning as well. You know that hat your mum keeps telling you to put on your head? It’s time to use it! There are plenty of fashionable choices out there for you to choose from.
5. Go for a trim
This takes us back to hair care 101. Even if you’re on a mission to grow your hair, you need to get a trim every now and then. It’s the perfect chance to cut off those dead ends that not only look unkempt but are also damaged and stop the rest of your hair from shining to its full potential.
Lock in a trim every six to eight weeks. Remember, you can still keep the length. It’s just about getting rid of those pesky dead ends and giving you a much healthier look in the process. Your hair will thank you for it.
