Steps

Method 1 of 3: Let your hair recover

1. 1 Do not use hair treatments that might harm them. Many popular procedures strip the hair of natural oils and negatively affect the hair follicle. If you do not stop resorting to such procedures, then you will not be able to return your hair to its original appearance and condition. You are unlikely to be able to restore hair health if you do not stop using procedures that harm your hair. However, if you still want to restore the lost health of your hair, everything is in your hands. Let your hair return to its natural state. Most of us achieve the appearance of well-groomed hair with daily styling, however, if you do not, you will be rewarded with beautiful and healthy hair in the long term. The following are the procedures to avoid:
   • Hair coloring with chemicals. If you love dyeing your hair, use natural remedies such as henna or tea. These products will help restore hair without harming it.
   • Bleaching. Hair discoloration negatively affects hair condition. Hair becomes brittle and brittle.
   • Chemical straightening, such as Brazilian or permanent. Those chemicals that help straighten and smooth curly or curly hair do a lot of harm to them.
2. 2 Handle your hair gently when you wash or dry it. Hair is inherently very fragile, so it is important to handle it with great care, especially when wet. Wet hair breaks very easily. Therefore, be very careful when washing and towel drying your hair. Treat your hair like a delicate silk dress or fine wool sweater. You won't roughly wash them, wring them out and dry them with a towel, will you? As with special fabrics, hair must be handled with care. Treat your hair with care and gentleness.
   • When you wash your hair, massage your scalp with your fingertips and gently distribute the shampoo through your hair. Do not rub your hair vigorously. Follow this same principle when applying hair conditioner.
   • After washing, allow the drops to drain for a few seconds, then gently wring out excess water with your hands before blotting dry with a towel.
3. 3 Shampoo your hair no more than once or twice a week. The scalp produces a natural oil called sebum that protects the hair from drying out. If you wash your hair too often, you rinse off this oil before it is evenly distributed over the entire length of your hair and provides proper protection. Wash your hair only a few times a week and it will be shiny and healthy.
   • When you stop washing your hair every day, your scalp will produce more natural oils, so your hair can become greasy very quickly. After a week, everything will fall into place, and the hair will no longer look greasy the next day after washing.
   • If you are uncomfortable with dirty hair, use dry shampoo. You can buy dry shampoo or make your own. To do this, simply mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 1/2 tablespoon of baking soda. Sprinkle dry shampoo on greasy areas and wait 5 minutes, then comb through your hair.
4. 4 Let your hair dry naturally. This rule is difficult to follow for those who are used to using hair dryers and other hot styling products to create the perfect look every day.If your goal is to restore hair health, then you will have to stop using these tools. Let your hair dry naturally without the use of a hair dryer or similar tools. This will keep your hair healthy and strong.
   • If you cannot do without a hair dryer and similar tools, use them at minimal mode or in extreme cases.
   • It will take some time to restore the health of your hair. Don't expect quick results. Have patience; If you are patient, then over time your hair will be very grateful to you and you can be proud of your natural and healthy hair. Believe me, the result will not be long in coming.
5. 5 Do not brush your hair. A plastic bristle brush can negatively affect the condition of the hair. The wide-toothed comb is ideal for detangling hair. Comb gently, starting at the ends and gradually working towards the root. Comb until you unravel the strands.
   • Do not brush your hair when it is wet, as it is very fragile in this state. If you comb your hair while it is still wet, you will have split ends.
6. 6 Do gentle hairstyles. When wearing tight hairstyles, the hair is most prone to breakage. Hair extensions are bad for their condition. Whichever way you choose to build, be prepared for unpleasant consequences. If you want to restore healthy hair, then try to avoid hairstyles that can harm your hair.

Method 2 of 3: Use conditioner

1. 1 Apply conditioner to your hair every time you shampoo your hair. Shampoo is designed to cleanse hair, and conditioner to keep it well hydrated, smooth and shiny. Pour a small amount of conditioner into the palm of your hand, apply to hair, about two centimeters from the roots, and then use your fingers to spread it over the entire length of the hair. When you're done, rinse your hair with water.
   • Do not use large amounts of fabric softener. Otherwise, your hair will be greasy and heavy.
   • To keep your hair shiny, rinse it with cold water. This will leave your hair smooth and shiny. You cannot achieve this effect by rinsing your hair with hot water.
2. 2 Deep condition your hair every few weeks. Deep conditioning keeps hair hydrated for a long period of time. Apply a tablespoon of the product to the hair and distribute evenly over the entire length. Comb from roots to ends. Then pull your hair up and secure it with a barrette. Put on a shower cap. Do not wash your hair for an hour.
   • You can purchase a deep conditioner from the store, or use one you have at home, such as coconut oil, almond oil, or olive oil.
   • Do not perform this procedure more than once a week, as too frequent use of this product can damage your hair.
3. 3 Apply a hair mask. When your hair looks dull and lifeless, a hair mask can help restore strength and health to your hair. Apply the hair mask in the shower, rinse it off before leaving, then shampoo your hair. Use the following ingredients to make masks at home:
   • For dull hair, use a tablespoon of honey or one egg white.
   • For curly hair, use one banana or avocado.
   • For dry hair, use a tablespoon of milk or yogurt.
   • For combination hair, use any combination of the ingredients mentioned above.
4. 4 Use hair oil or serum. After your hair is dry, apply a hair oil or serum to protect the weakened hair. Use a smoothing serum or oil that you have on hand. Apply a few drops to your fingers and distribute evenly through your hair.If you don't want to buy a specialty serum, use a small amount of one of the following oils:
   • Argan oil
   • Moroccan oil
   • Jojoba oil
   • Egg butter
5. 5 Use a natural boar bristle brush. While most brushes do damage to hair, natural bristle brushes are the exception. The fibers of these brushes are close to the texture of a human hair. They perfectly distribute sebum from the roots of the hair to the very ends.
   • Use a wide-toothed comb to detangle your hair, then brush from roots to ends to nourish your hair along its entire length. Your hair will be smooth and shiny.
   • Plastic brushes do not have this advantage.

Method 3 of 3: Help Your Hair Grow Healthy

1. 1 Massage your scalp. The massage promotes good circulation of the scalp, which promotes the growth of healthy and strong hair. Get in the habit of massaging your scalp gently with your fingers every day. Massage with your fingertips in a circular motion. An additional benefit of massage: soothes headaches and reduces stress.
   • A head massage with oil is even more useful. Coconut, almond, olive, and jojoba oils work great. Better to do this massage in the shower, and then wash your hair with shampoo.
   • Some essential oils stimulate hair growth. Try rubbing in tea tree, lavender, or cedarwood oil.
2. 2 Use natural hair products. The ingredients in your shampoo and conditioner can do more harm than good. Look for organic shampoos and conditioners that nourish your hair rather than weighing it down with unnecessary chemicals. Please note the following:
   • Use a sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates are harsh cleaning agents used in everything from dishwashing detergent to laundry detergent. They are very harmful to hair. Choose shampoos that are naturally sulphate-free.
   • Use a silicone-free conditioner. Silicone is added to the conditioner to make hair look shiny and smooth after a few uses. However, over time, this substance builds up in the hair and makes it heavier.
3. 3 Maintain health from within. Your daily habits really affect the health of your hair. If your diet lacks nutrients and enough water, this will certainly affect your hair. Make a commitment to being healthy inside and out. Follow these steps:
   • Eat hair-healthy foods that contain protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and iron. Salmon, sardines, avocados, nuts and flaxseeds are great for promoting healthy hair growth.
   • Drink plenty of water. If your body is dehydrated, your hair will also be dry and brittle.
   • Do not smoke and avoid secondhand smoke. Cigarette smoke damages hair and makes it dry and dull.
4. 4 Protect your hair from adverse factors. Hair becomes dry and brittle when exposed to the sun, cold temperatures and air pollution. Wear a hat to protect yourself from environmental hazards that can make your hair sick.
   • Protect yourself from pool chemicals. Wear a rubber cap to avoid immersing your hair in chlorinated water.
   • Air pollution also affects your hair. If you are walking or cycling near the road, protect your hair until you reach your destination.
   • Braided hair is less tangled and less exposed to harmful elements of the environment.
5. 5 Trim the ends regularly. As new, healthy hair grows, old, damaged hair should be trimmed. Getting rid of split ends will give you a fresh look and you will see a big difference over time.

Tips

• Rinse your hair with cold water. This will keep them well hydrated.
