Is your hair dry, brittle, lacking vitality and difficult to brush? No matter what kind of hair you own, with your time and effort, you can revitalize it. Gently treating your hair, avoiding actions that damage it, and using deep conditioning techniques will help your hair restore its natural shine.

Steps

Part 1 of 3: Starting with Healthy Habits

  1. Be gentle with your hair while washing and drying your hair. Dry hair means weak hair. Rough handling with your hair will cause split ends and may even lead to hair loss. When you wash your hair, dry it and take care of your hair, think of it as a delicate piece of cloth that needs absolute, gentle care. This means no rubbing, pulling or twisting the hair.
    • When you wash your hair, use your fingertips to evenly brush the shampoo from your hair instead of rubbing it roughly.
    • Rinse hair with cool or warm water; Hot water causes more damage to the hair.
    • When you're finished washing your hair, gently squeeze your hair to remove the excess water instead of twisting and twisting it. Then, pat your hair dry with a towel.

  2. Don't wash your hair too often. Hair becomes dry when the natural oils on the scalp do not have a chance to nourish the hair. For dry hair, washing your hair every day will make it drier and more brittle because you are removing that amount of oil that is needed in your hair each day. You should only wash your hair two to three times a week to give the oil on your scalp time to nourish your hair.
    • When you minimize your shampoo level, you'll notice that your scalp is more oily, as it gets used to producing extra oils to make up for the oil lost from washing your hair too often. You should wait 1 to 2 weeks for things to get more balanced; Your hair will no longer look dirty when you stop washing it for several days.
    • If the roots are starting to look a bit greasy, dry shampoo is a great way to get rid of the problem without having to actually wash your hair with water.

  3. Let hair dry naturally. Do you often use a hairdryer? It's time to stop using it and give your hair a chance to air-dry naturally. Direct the hot air of a dryer into your hair will not make it healthier. While drying can make your hair look shiny, the heat from the dryer can damage it, and over time it can lead to split ends and breakage.
    • When you first start to let your hair dry naturally, you probably won't be satisfied with the results. Please wait patiently; After a few months of gentle hair care, the hair's naturally beautiful texture will have a chance to shine.
    • When you need to use a dryer to style your hair (and you should only do this on special occasions), it's a good idea to set the dryer to a cool or warm drying mode, and keep it away from your head a few centimeters.

  4. Use a comb instead of a hair brush. Hairbrushes are often quite rough with tangles and damage to the hair. Since dry hair is very fragile, this action can make it look frizzy and frizzy. Instead, use a wide tooth comb to brush your hair while it's wet. This will be gentler on your hair and will not cause you to tug on your hair or break it.
    • If your hair is tangled, try combing the hair starting from near the ends, then slowly moving towards the roots. If you brush your hair from the roots, you will cause hair to fall out.
    • You can also use your fingers to gently untangle the hair. Apply a little hair conditioner and massage the tangled hair until the hair is completely untouched.
  5. Stop styling that is damaging to your hair. Straightening, curling, dyeing, or using other methods of treatment can cause lasting damage to the hair, even if you do it just once. If your hair is quite dry and you are trying to revitalize it, your hair won't be able to return to its lustrous and natural texture until you stop using styling. damage to the hair. Avoid the following actions:
    • Use a heat styling tool such as a hair curler, a heat curler, or a straightener (you should replace it with a non-heat method).
    • Hair coloring, hair bleaching, or highlighting (natural alternatives should be used).
  6. Avoid hairstyles that require you to stretch your hair. Weaving, braiding, and other hairstyles that involve the action of stretching hair from the roots cause more damage to dry hair. Doing one of these hairstyles can cause breakage and baldness in some places. The best way is to let your hair grow naturally while it is nourishing your hair. advertisement
