5 Best Tricks For Healthy Shiny Hair

Fret not, because we’re offering 5 simple methods to keep your hair looking and feeling healthy. Let’s get into it!

Keep Brushing to a Minimum

Keep Brushing

While you may be tempted to brush your hair regularly, it’s important to keep brushing to a minimum if you want it to be as healthy as possible. Brushing your hair too much can lead to breakage by tugging on your hair causing the hair to split and break. Brushing your hair can also lead to stripping it of its natural oils, which are important to keep it healthy and moisturized.

Don’t Wash Your Hair Every Day

Washing your hair every single day can cause a lot of issues with its health. Similar to brushing your hair daily, washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils. This leads to your hair becoming dry which leads to more breakage over time. Washing your hair every day is also linked to more split ends and has the potential to cause your hair to thin as the sulfate used in most shampoos is notorious for stripping your hair of natural, healthy nutrients.

Invest in High-Quality Products

There’s no harm in wanting to save a few dollars here and there, but you want to make sure you’re using high-quality products when it comes to what you put in your hair. There are many hair products in the market that are full of harmful ingredients like sulfates, formaldehyde, synthetic fragrances, and parabens. It’s best that you avoid hair care products that contain any of those toxic ingredients to protect your hair and ensure it’s as healthy as can be!

Avoid Heat When You Can

It’s not the end of the world to curl your hair or blow dry it for a special date night here and there, but you want to try and keep using heat on your hair to a minimum. When your hair is exposed to high temperatures, it causes extreme stress to it which leads to damaging your hair cuticles. High heat also makes your hair become more frizzy, rough, and harder to manage. Instead of using a blow dryer or curling iron, spend some time researching natural, heat-free ways to style and take care of your hair.

Get Regular Trims

Hair Trimming

If you’re wanting to grow your hair out but fear getting it trimmed, you’re actually doing your hair a disservice. It’s a common, understandable misconception that cutting your hair will prevent growth. However, regular trims actually help to encourage and promote hair growth. Trimming your hair keeps your hair healthy and looking beautiful by getting rid of unnecessary splint ends. The next time your hair stylist suggests getting a trim, you should listen to them!
