Here are 10 tips for to keep your hair strong, smooth, shiny and beautiful!

1. Keep your diet balanced, and eat protein and calcium rich foods. Stay away from junk foods! This is essential for healthy hair.

2. Foods and supplements to nourish your hair:


* Beans
* Yogurt
* Almonds
* Vitamin B
* Fish
* And of course, the magic potion for beauty - WATER

3. Before washing your hair, comb it well to make sure all knots has been loosened from your hair.

4. Before applying shampoo, use warm water (35 to 38 degrees Celsius) to run through your hair to rinse and wet it thoroughly.

5. When applying shampoo or conditioner, don't use your fingernails to scrape through your hair. Instead, use your palm and fingertips to massage your scalp and hair gently, in circular motions. This will help the circulation and also help to keep your hair shiny and smooth.

6. After rinsing away all the shampoo, run water over your hair for at least another half a minute (3 minutes is best) to ensure there are no remains of shampoo remaining in your hair, since this will cause a great deal of damage to your scalp.

7. When applying hair treatment products, do so just after you have washed your hair, so that your hair can absorb all the good stuff while it is half wet. This will be the best time for it to absorb nourishment.

8. NEVER go to bed with your hair wet! Hair that is half wet is most easily broken, and if you sleep during this time, your hair will be rubbing against each other, damaging your hair in the most terrible way.

9. Too much pressure may lead to hair loss! Relax... try some good relaxation methods such as soaking in a nice scented bath, listening to music, and eating healthy comfort foods such as strawberries and grapes.

10. Perming and coloring seriously damages your hair. Avoid it as much as possible. Also, when using hair setting products such as gel or putty, use as little as possible, because they hurt your scalp and hair. Wash them out thoroughly afterwards with a shampoo specially created for removing styling products.

have you tried a leave in conditioner? They work pretty good. Also, when you wash your hair, leave the conditioner on your hair for a few minutes before washing it out. It is not really bad to wash your hair everyday, but try washing it every other day. That may help too.

Answer 4

its ok to wash once a day. some people skip a day but i think thats gross cause your hair and scalp may get really oily.
do you chemically process ( color, etc.?)
also, the fact that you straighten it with a straightener and/or blowdryer is what is damaging it also.

you need good products (try Terax Crema conditioner, Redken Butter Treat) and more importantly, eat good food. eat more soy, dark green veggies, fish, vitamin B6, Omega 6 (is that what its called?) acids, and you need some fats, like milk, fish, etc.
what you put in your body affects hair, skin and nails.
you can take supplements to improve and soften new growth, but stop straightening and get good products and that will make the best of what you have.
also, get frequent trims and use a humidifier at home.
