5 Hair Hacks For Healthy Hair
1. Use Protein-rich masks
Nourish your hair with protein-rich masks. Now for those of you who don't know hair is made out of keratin which is a type of protein. So if you nourish your hair with the protein it's going to be much healthier overall. It's not going to be as dry and it's not going to be so deprived of moisture that when you're in a humid environment it just sucks all the moisture out of the air. So my favorite protein mask that I've been using for the last six months or so is this one right here that has a strand of hair attached to it because I just used it last night.
So in addition to your hair is made out of proteins Your hair is also made out of that and water. So for your hair to thrive and be at its healthiest state you want to include a lot of healthy fats unsaturated fats lean proteins and plenty and plenty of water in your diet.
So some unsaturated fats can include OF A Kato's olive oil grape seed oil some amazing lean proteins include lean chicken lean turkey fish. And I always tried to drink at least two to three liters of water every single day to make sure that my skin and my hair is hydrated because I unfortunately also suffer from dry skin.
So if any of you are suffering from dry skin or dry hair drinking enough water and having a diet full of amazing lean proteins and unsaturated fats will help you out.
2.Use oils and serums
My next step is to embrace oils and serums and for the longest time I can even tell you how terrified I was of using oil in my hair because I thought my hair was going to be way down and look greasy but to be honest it's the best thing that's ever happened to my hair just like my skin. I noticed that my skin and my hair react amazingly to oils and serums. It's just the most hydrating thing that I can do for my skin and my hair. And you honestly need the smallest amount so it's not going to weigh down your hair or make it greasy so you guys are worried about that.
I highly recommend trying it out. I promise you you will love the results. And another great thing is that the oil creates a barrier around your hair strands so that your hair strands are not as thirsty for that hydration to get it from the air so that your hair is going to be a lot less prone to getting frizzy.
3.Avoid overexposing heat while using styling tools
My next tip is to keep your heat styling tools within a safe temperature range to avoid overexposing your hair to too much heat. This can dry out your hair and can damage your hair and it can also make your hair more prone to frizz because your hair is super dry and is trying to get that moisture from somewhere else. So for a reference, if your hair is on the thinner side you want to use your heat selling tools in a lower setting.
If your hair is on the thicker size thicker side you can get away with using heat styling tools on a little bit of a higher setting. So my hair personally is on like the medium-thick sides.
When I use my flat urn I use it on the two hundred and ninety degrees Fahrenheit setting and when I use a curling iron I use it on the like two hundred and forty 250 degrees Fahrenheit setting. And the reason why I use my curling wand on a lower setting them a flat iron is because when you use a curling wand you're leaving your hair on the curling one for a longer period since being exposed to more heat than it would if you were to just run your fort aren't through your hair once or twice if you'd like to blow dry your hair.
I would recommend waiting until your hair is about 70 to 80 percent dry. You can still blow dry your hair if it's completely dry. So that way you're not going over the same section over and over to get it from completely wet to completely dry so that way you're going to be exposing your hair to a lot less heat and it's going to be less damaging to your hair.
4.Dry your hair with a cotton T-shirt
My next step is to always dry your hair with a cotton T-shirt or a material that has been specifically designed for drying your hair naturally do not use a towel to dry your hair because the fibers on a towel are very very harsh and those fibers create a lot of friction in your hair.
It causes your hair to be really dry and it also makes your hair a lot more frizzy. If you are one of those people who don't like the whole cotton T-shirt thing I want to recommend a brand to you that I have been loving.
So what I do is after I come out of the shower I dry my hair with this towel over here and I always pat and squeeze my hair dry I never rub my hair because again rubbing can make your hair more frizzy due to friction so offer a towel dried my hair using this always hair towel.
5.Moisturizer Your Hair
My last tip is for those of you who are out and about and traveling. Your hair looks smooth when you walk out of your house but then all of a sudden while you're out and about you notice that your hair is starting to become poofy and frizzy. So what do you do then when you don't have any oils or serums or anything that contain that phrase if you have a moisturizer in your handbag chances are one of the first three ingredients in it is glycerin and if you don't have a moisturizer in your hand and that has Glaser and I just highly recommend going out and picking one up.
You don't have to get a large bottle of moisturizer just get one of those travel-sized ones and keep it in your purse at all times. That way if you do experience some frizz while you're out and about you have something that you can do about it. You can use tigi bed head fully loaded shampoo and conditioner which is Transform limp, lack-lustre hair, gently removes impurities and product build-up. Infusing hair with a delicious berry fragrance, you can expect long-lasting volume memory that won't drop out. Helps in plump and thicken hair from root to tip.So glycerin works by making stuff stick together so it will help smooth out your hair and keep your hair together it's not like glue. Don't worry your hair is not going to be like stuck but it's going to help smooth out the phrase and keep it from getting out of control in a good natural moisturizer typically has ingredients in it that will help hydrate.
So if you're getting that hydration from the moisturizer your hair is going to be a lot less likely to seek that moisture from the air.
