Well, what woman does not dream of healthy, thick and luxurious hair? How to achieve such a result? Everything is not as complicated as it might seem at first glance. A little more attention to yourself, compliance with some rules - and in a short time, beauty will look at you from your own mirror.
The first step is to understand the basic means of hair care. Today, advertising offers us a lot of shampoos, balms and other care products. But what should you pay attention to when choosing the right one?
Hair Types and Their Features
In order for hair care to be competent and effective, the first thing you need to decide on their type. If this is not done, then the state of hair can only worsen.
Oily hair is very dull, while it begins to seem dirty and untidy shortly after washing. Excessive oily hair appears due to the active activity of the sebaceous glands of the head - this is a purely individual problem.
Dry hair also reflects light poorly, due to which they look dull and not glossy. They are easy to confuse and very difficult to comb, while the tips are very split. Often, all these signs are manifested due to improper hair care, which reduces the activity of the sebaceous glands.
Mixed curls are often long, they are dry at the tips and excessively greasy at the roots. Such hair needs combined care. In this case, the necessary care products should be carefully selected.
Basic rules for hair care
- Hair is washed several times a week.
- You need to choose a shampoo that matches the type of hair.
- During shampooing, massage is necessary.
- To make luxurious hair shine, shampoo is best washed off with cool water.
- When drying hair, the hair dryer should not be kept too close to wet locks and held in the same place.
- It is best to use a wooden comb or massage brush - it is they who improve blood circulation.
- When leaving, it is important to use all kinds of masks, which are applied some time before washing your hair.
Water
Luxurious hair, photos of which many with a sigh of envy consider in all glossy publications, is a dream for women. To achieve this, you need to pay attention to every little thing. Particular attention should be paid to the water you wash your hair with. It is worth giving up too hard water. They solve this problem in this way: in a basin of liquid, you just need to add drinking soda (1 tbsp. 1 tbsp. Soda per 1 liter of water). In addition, you can use ammonia, it will need 1 teaspoon per 2 liters of liquid.
No need to wash your hair with too hot water, its temperature should not exceed your body temperature. Water heated to a high temperature activates the sebaceous glands, so the hair will become soiled much faster. For oily hair, hot water is completely contraindicated.
If the curls are too long, then when washing, experts recommend applying shampoo only on the basal area. Thanks to this trick, the ends of the hair will not dry out and break. In this case, initially the shampoo is slightly diluted in the palm of your hand with water, and then rubbing it into the roots with massaging movements and stretching it over the entire length.
How to choose a shampoo
Of course, the first thing you need to pay attention to the composition. The main active ingredient in shampoo are detergents. They cause the appearance of foam when mixing the composition with water and air. And although the amount of foam does not affect the quality of the shampoo, it is detergents that largely determine the quality properties of the product.
In addition, other information must be indicated on the bottle: manufacturer, trademark, volume, weight, composition, manufacturing date and expiration date. The bottle must contain information about what hair the shampoo is intended for. There are a large number of fakes on the market, they can be avoided by purchasing products in company stores or pharmacies. It is better to opt for a well-known brand that will provide you luxurious hair. Customer reviews and recommendations in this case, of course, will also be useful.
More on Hair Wash
Everyone should decide individually how to wash their curls. Hair should be washed as often as it needs to be. If you use mousses, varnishes or gel for styling daily, it is best to wash your hair every day, because these special products make curls heavier, which, in turn, affects the quality of hair.
If you wash your hair every day, you must also choose a special shampoo designed for this.
Nutrition and Protection
Another important step that helps to get luxurious hair is nutrition and protection of curls. In this case, the main assistants are conditioner rinses, lotions and masks. The main function of rinsing agents is to facilitate combing of hair, therefore such a tool is necessary for thick hair. In addition, rinse conditioners additionally nourish the hair with oils and vitamins. However, one must take into account that balms are applied and rubbed into the scalp, but conditioners are applied to the ends.
Lotions and masks, most likely, can be called intensive care for hair. These drugs are used in cases where the strands are damaged and need auxiliary nutrition and treatment.
Hair masks
If we talk about healthy and luxurious hair, then it is necessary to mention medical masks. Of course, in specialized stores you can find a large number of professional tools, however, to this day, many women prefer folk remedies.
One of the most common are kefir masks, they are loved for their accessibility and simplicity. The mask is made in this way: the heated kefir is applied to the hair half an hour before washing the hair. As a result, the curls become much softer. Kefir perfectly moisturizes the hair, so it is perfect for dry hair.
Honey is also considered an excellent cosmetic. It has a large amount of minerals and vitamins. Honey masks are used to combat hair loss and dandruff. To prepare such a cosmetic product mix 2 tbsp. l burdock or castor oil, 2 tbsp. l honey, as well as one yolk. The mask is left on the hair for half an hour, and the course should last about two to three months.
If you use the above masks, luxurious hair will not be a dream, but a reality. But all individually. There are a large number of masks, and everyone should choose a tool that corresponds to one or another type of hair.
