True natural beauty always goes hand in hand with health. To grow hair now is quite real. But it is best to take care of yourself, filling your own strands with life force.
Problem of damaged hair
If damaged split and faded hair has become unchanged companions, then first of all it signals health problems. In fact, to correct the situation with the condition of the hair is a feasible task, even if the hair breaks. What to do in such cases is described in the article. The only factor that can interfere with treatment is heredity, but this problem is quite rare. In any case, the hair should not be left to their own devices, they must be dealt with, taken care of.
Each lady gradually comes to the conclusion that general advice is not quite right, but you need to look for ways that are ideal for your beloved. In any case, everyone knows that the means for thermo-laying always differed in the harmful effects: hair dryer, curling iron, ironing and others. They dry the hair, protruding the flakes, thereby complicating the recovery process.
Prevention of fragility and cross-section of hair
To treat and restore hair, it is not necessary to go for expensive drugs. You can choose softer and more affordable options, namely, use folk remedies. And if you can find a suitable way, then it is quite possible to forget that the hair breaks. What is undesirable to do is bring them to a deplorable state. After all, it is preferable to care for prevention. And not only in cases where it was urgently needed to improve the condition of curls. Most often, problems of brittle, thin, split ends and prone to hair loss appear simultaneously.
If sweet and fatty foods prevail in the daily diet, then the hair breaks as a result. What to do in this case, it is clear: to minimize the use of "bad" food. And the amount of drinking water, on the contrary, needs to be increased. In the demi-season, it is recommended to purchase vitamin complexes for hair.
How to avoid mechanical damage to hair
Brushes with sharp metal teeth should be forgotten, as their hair breaks. What to do in this case? Replace your hairdressing accessories with plastic combs, bone and wooden combs. It is better to choose products with rare teeth and remember that frequent combing is a bad habit.
Wet hair is most easily injured: it is damaged and stretched, so you can’t comb it. After shampooing, it is allowed to gently wet the locks, and then briefly wrap in a towel. Then the hair should be dissolved and left to dry naturally. If nodules appear, then they are untied with your fingers and without haste. And they move in the direction from the ends to the roots, otherwise the hair breaks.
What to do for those who constantly wear the same hairstyles - is to leave their hair loose for a while. Frequent use of rubber bands and hairpins greatly worsens the condition of the strands. But in bad weather, it is better to do the hairstyle and hide it under a hat. In addition, you need to know that alcohol-containing styling products dry hair.
Haircut speeds up treatment
Before starting to restore hair, it is necessary to cut off their ends. And it is advisable to do this with “hot scissors”, because the method prevents delamination. If you cut the ends once every two months, then your hair will split and break much less. What is best done is to wear a short haircut. After all, with her the question is resolved on its own, because in order to maintain the form, the hairstyle must be constantly updated. But long hair grows longer.
The race for fleeting beauty for one-time styling or staining leads to significant damage to the strands. The brightness, shine is lost, the hair breaks.
What if the girl really wants to grow long curls and for this does not cut the ends? In this case, special strengthening agents are needed, which are used after washing the hair. If you ignore the rule of care for the tips, then long curls from split ends of lifeless hair will not turn out beautiful in any way.
Hair restoration
When treating split ends, it is extremely important to moisturize them, and for this to choose the appropriate potent remedies. It can be creams, masks, balms, conditioners or a series of products. You need to choose from medical or professional cosmetics, otherwise your hair will split and break.
What to do in such cases? Pay attention to hair growth accelerating agents. It can be serums or shampoos, which quickly renew the hair stem, contribute to healing. The composition of such cosmetics should include seaweed trisaccharides (protect hair from drying out and brittleness), keratin (integrates into hair and restores it), vitamins of groups E, A and other substances.
How to treat brittle hair
When treating any problem, we must first think about eliminating not the effect, but the cause. Perhaps some funds were bought, but still the hair is split and broken. What to do at home in order to significantly improve the condition of the hair is to follow a few simple rules that girls can ignore:
- It is necessary to restore water balance by using mineral or filtered clean water.
- Stop stress, lack of sleep, fatigue.
- Take complexes, which include vitamins of groups A, E, C, B, and selenium, zinc, magnesium and iron as the elemental composition.
- Engage in the treatment of chronic diseases of the internal organs.
- Stop or minimize hair exposure methods such as perming and dyeing.
- Change the shampoo, since such a problem can be directly caused by an individually inappropriate tool that unexpectedly contributed to the fact that the hair is split and broken.
- What to do at home? Do not go on a diet for weight loss and stop drinking alcohol, coffee and smoking.
With a problem such as dry air in the room, you need to think about installing humidifiers. There is a special device - a hygrometer - which allows you to measure the humidity in the room. His testimony should be guided in solving this problem.
Rinsing split ends
It happens that a girl looks at the ends and sees: her hair is split, broken. “What to do at home,” is the first thought that comes to mind in such cases. Of the home methods of hair care, rinsing is popular. You can purchase a special tool in the store, as well as make it yourself. At the same time, it is not at all necessary to make a whole basin of solution to lower the washed hair into it. It is enough to cook it in a liter container, and then pour it on top.
In case of split and faded hair, mix 1 tablespoon of chopped mint and tea leaves, add 1 liter of boiling water and leave for 15 minutes. Then strain the resulting solution and wait until it cools slightly. Then, after washing, rinse the head with a decoction.
The solution also gives shine to dark hair: 1 teaspoon of vinegar per liter of water. It is good to rinse fair hair with pre-filtered and chilled chamomile broth pre-filtered and cooled to a pleasant temperature.
A great way to strengthen the ends of your hair is to use honey water. To do this, you need to dissolve 2 teaspoons of honey in 1 cup of boiled water. Then braid the braid and lower its end into the solution for 10 minutes. After drying, the hair can be combed.
Kefir masks
Many women praise kefir masks for their effectiveness and affordability. When my hair breaks down so much, what remains to be done but to look for optimal solutions? The mask does not require preliminary preparation, it is enough to take sour milk or kefir, carefully apply it on the strands, put on a hat and wait 30 minutes. Then again smear them with the selected fermented milk product and wash the hair with shampoo.
And you can make 2 more similar masks:
- For the express method, apply kefir to the hair, put on a hat, wrap everything on top with a towel and wait 15-20 minutes. Then wash your hair.
- Do the same, but leave sour milk on your hair at night, and rinse in the morning. After such a mask, a pleasant sensation of softness and silkiness of the hair appears, and the scalp calms down.
The secret of the action of fermented milk products is the ability to create a protective film, protecting the hair from delamination and mechanical damage. It is better to use kefir 2.5-3% fat.
Oil wraps
Oil masks significantly restore even severely damaged hair, because many women, faced with such a problem, think in horror: “Hair breaks very much. What to do?" In fact, everything is not as scary as it seems at first glance. Again, you can buy a bottle of such a tool in the store, but there is an option to prepare it yourself.
Castor oil helps very well, which is applied before washing for the longest possible period (30 minutes or an hour). Such a mask significantly strengthens the hair, instantly heals them. You need to put on a hat, and then wrap a towel for warming. After the expiration of the prescribed period, the oil is washed off with a large amount of shampoo. You can use sunflower, olive, almond or burdock oil.
If there is dryness and fading, as well as very broken hair, what to do in this case? A mask of 2 tablespoons of olive, the same amount of castor oil and egg yolk helps a lot. First you need to heat the fat, then add the yolk to it and rub the resulting product into the scalp and hair, especially the ends. Then wrap your head in a plastic bag or film, and on top with a towel. Leave for an hour, then rinse with shampoo. By analogy, you can strengthen your hair with other oils from the list, just warming them up and leaving them on your hair for 30-40 minutes before shampooing.
In any case, the problem of thin, brittle, lifeless hair is not incorrigible. It is quite possible to cope with it, if you show a little ingenuity, diligence and patience.
