Healthy, which means shiny, magnificent, light, obedient hair is the main attribute of the appearance of a well-groomed woman. It’s great if you got such hair from nature. But most women have one problem or another (split ends, lack of shine, hair loss), especially when you consider what tests we subject them daily (coloring, curling, straightening with an iron, blow-drying, combing, low-quality varnishes and foams).
Hair requires daily care, so professional services in beauty salons are not suitable: not every woman can afford to visit a salon even once a month. Strengthening hair at home is possible, although problematic.
There are several ways to restore health to your hair. In addition to proper nutrition and constant care (the use of shampoo, conditioner, rinse - 2 times a week, not more often) will help strengthen hair and other modern products: tonics with proteins, balms, all kinds of masks, restoring elixir, nourishing spray. Is it possible to replace such expensive innovative products with natural ingredients? Strengthening hair at home also involves the independent manufacture of masks from food, domestic plants, oils.
The composition of the masks will depend on the type of hair or on the solution to which problem hair strengthening is directed. Masks with onion juice are ideal for nourishing dry, weakened and damaged hair. A mask of kefir, mustard and eggs helps to prevent strong loss (hold for 30 minutes, wrapping your head in a towel). Herbs are used when you need to simultaneously strengthen the tips and nourish the scalp. Chamomile infusion is ideal for these purposes - 3 times every week for a month. But before rinsing his head, for 40 minutes, soda should be rubbed into the skin.
The use of oils was considered to be an ideal tool instead of masks since ancient times : sea buckthorn, olive, castor. Rubbing the oil into the roots, the hair is covered with cellophane, on top of it - with a towel. Wait 40 minutes and rinse with shampoo. This procedure is able to return the hair a luxurious vibrant shine and really heal them, it should be done once a week for a month. But the use of oils is not recommended for owners of oily hair.
However, no home masks can replace unique modern products that protect hair from the effects of frequent styling, exposure to hot air from a hair dryer, and elevated temperatures from straighteners or curlers. For example, a thermal spray for protecting hair during hot styling, a caring styling gel and other latest styling products can do more good than harm (unlike their predecessors).
Strengthening hair at home includes head massage. To improve blood circulation in the layers of the skin, to ensure an influx to the roots of the hair, both comb-massage, simple massage devices, and special devices will help. Make it a rule to do a head massage before bedtime. This procedure will help prepare for sleep, relieve stress, headaches, allow the skin to breathe and the blood vessels in it to function normally. This means that the roots will become stronger, and there will be less reasons for hair loss.
Without proper nutrition, hair strengthening is impossible. Vitamins A, C, E, group B, as well as iron are part of modern drugs: Merz, Perfectil, Lady's and many others. Instead of vitamin complexes, you should take care of the content of all the necessary vitamins and minerals in your diet. Only a full-fledged diet will provide the body with everything necessary: greens, seafood, fruits - both native and "overseas", vegetables, liver, eggs, dairy products.
Strengthening hair at home involves refusing to dye until the hair is sufficiently strong (only henna is an exception), a gentle approach to daily hairstyles, refusing to use a hair dryer (let the hair dry without it), and if possible from hairpins, crabs and elastic bands.
Stresses, hormonal disorders and diseases, lack of a normal regimen also affect the condition of our hair, as well as improper care, poor nutrition, and daily exposure. You need to take care of your well-being and overall health.
