Tips To Stop Hair Loss & Keep Healthy Hair Here are some hair care tips that you can use to help stop hair loss and keep your existing hair healthy and looking great. Please don't take these tips lightly. They are very important . The only thing they require is your time and commitment.

- Massage your scalp with your fingertips (not your nails) daily to stimulate and promote circulation to your scalp and reduce excess fallout. Invert your head while you shampoo & massage your scalp. This helps promote blood circulation to the head.

- Essential oils & tea . To stimulate scalp circulation, massage the scalp with rosemary essential oil or rinse hair with tea made from sage.

- Comb or brush your hair and scalp gently in the morning and at night. This helps break up hardened oils (sebum) that are clogging your hair follicles. Doing this alone has produced new hair growth. Do not over do combing or brushing.

- keep a distance from dryer's heat. When using blow dryers, always keep the heat a good distance from your scalp and hair. Avoid heating the scalp and hair excessively. Excessive heat will increase hair loss, and excess fallout.

- Avoid getting hair creams, lotions, styling gels and sprays directly on the scalp as they will clog your hair follicles. Use a light hold spray if you must.

- After swimming in a pool, shampoo your hair as soon as possible to remove any chlorine residue. Chlorine is extremely damaging to the hair and scalp.

- Avoid over-exposing your hair and scalp to the wind and sun. Good hair care over a long period really makes a difference!

- Avoid tight hats and caps as they contribute to poor circulation, depriving the hair of proper nutrition and stunting new hair growth. The sweat, dirt and grime around the rim inhibit follicle health and contribute to build-up.

- Always consult your health care provider for extreme causes of excess fallout and thinning. A medical condition or medication could be causing hair loss side-effects.

- Strive for balance and harmony in both your personal and professional lifestyle. High stress factors can cause your body to react by fluctuating hormone levels. This in turn causes excessive oil secretion (sebum) which results in hair loss.

- Pregnancy, nursing, menopause, and even birth control medication can cause constant changing factors on your nutritional needs and hormonal levels which contribute to hair loss and excess fallout.

- Avoid "crash and fad" diets. Proper nutritious meals along with vitamin and mineral supplements are a key factor for healthy hair and skin.

- Good hair care starts with awareness. These hair care tips, if followed consistently, will reduce excess fallout, hair loss, and promote new hair growth.

- Reduce hair loss effects by increasing your intake of vitamin C found in fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly citrus fruit and juices, parsley, broccoli, green peppers and black currants. Take a vitamin B complex everyday or brewers yeast. Increase your intake of protein found in meat, fish, liver, wheat germ, dried cooked beans and peas, tofu, cheese, milk and eggs.

- Take dietary supplements such as Vitamin B6, zinc & saw palmetto. Supplements are useful when you can't get enough from natural food sources.

- The Chinese believe that hair is nourished by the blood, and therefore influenced by the kidney & liver. Treatment is aimed at these organs using fleece flower root, wolfberry fruit or mulberry fruit.

- Eliminate stress or else it can be disastrous to your precious hair!

- Get enough sleep. Sleeping well is essential for the health of your hair as well as for the rest of your body.








There are ways you can help stop the grease from appearing but you have to work at it.

Do not wash everyday. The cleaner your hair is the more it can seep into your glands and harder it is to get rid of. When you do wash make sure you are washing with a cleaning shampoo and scrubbing the build up off. Take in mind that you also have to have a ph-balanced mild shampoo and lite scrubbing is recommended. Try to avoid conditioner at the roots, apply in the middle or on the ends.

Try to avoid oil in your daily food intake. And do eat more vegetables. You could visit your doctor but only after you check and consider your diet, drugs, alcohol, and your fatty food intake. Let's face it we see what McDonalds can do to your heart in a month, can you image your hair. You would be dripping everywhere.

Maybe it's time to change your shampoo. Ask your stylist what she or he would recommend. Avoid using shine products at all costs. Keep away from two-in-one shampoos and conditioners and any frizz serums.

To fix at the moment, rub a little Talcum Powder on your dried hair at the roots. Just make sure you wash it out. I wish they would event that magic product, but this will help until they do.




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.

Answer 2

REBONDING is your only way to get your hair straight! Do you guys have rebonding technology in your country? I was really curious how come so many of you from the western countries, doesn't even heard of Rebonding which is so famous in all parts of Asia. In Asia, it's a POPULAR hair revolutionary technique. It's damn amazing and it originates from Japan and Korea. It has been popular till now. It uses a rebonding cream to settle the chemicals into the hair and make it soft. After that, the hairstylist will use the flat iron to iron your hair to make it straight and smooth. Normally, the process takes about 3 - 5 hrs. And normally a good rebonding can last you a good 3 - 6 mths and an excellent rebonding costs about SGD $150 - $ 250 for short - medium hair length and SGD $250 - $450 for medium - long hair length. However, it still depends on the quality of the individual person and of course, very much depends on the skills of the hairstylist as well. You've to try it to believe what I said. Best part of rebonding is you don't have to comb your hair everyday and it's always SO STRAIGHT, shiny and silky! From natural & super curly hairs, you can turn your hair from 360 degrees into straight and silky hair! Even many Indian ladies also went for rebonding and have their stubborn curly hairs turn into silky and smooth hair. There're several rebondings like Ice Rebonding, Spa Rebonding and Soft Rebonding but most of them are similar. Find more info on that online.

Flat iron, flat iron, flat iron.

When you come out of the shower use a non friz product (aveda is my favorite) lightly place in hair and blow dry half as long as you normally would.
Turn the flat iron up all the way and let it do the rest of the drying for you, flip your head so you are looking between your knees and finishing flat ironing from the underside and you will get volume as well.
Mist lightly from the underside with hairspray and go.

I have bothersome hair as well and I can flat iron and go all day and even sleep on it that night and it is still straight the next day. Granted I don't have curly hair, but I do have fine hair that will kink if you look at it funny.

If you don't have a flat iron get on at target and spend about $30 on it don't go cheapy or you will end up ripping your hair out on the edges of the flat iron, make sure it says that you can use it on wet hair as well.

Caution the irons do get very hot, once you run your hair through don't touch your hair for a couple seconds or you can burn your hand.

Good luck.

Answer 5

I typically deep condition the hair after cleaning it, to weigh it down without build-up and moisturize the hair before heat styling it with a creamic blow dryer by revlon. I use MOP (modern organic products) intense hydrating conditioner, but anything else you have on-hand would work just as well. The blow dryer works wonders, better than any flat iron I have ever used. It also adds sheen and a bit of volume to the hair so that it doesn't look dull and flat when your done.

Answer 6

Get a perming package from your local store. Put the perm solution on your hair for 10-15 minutes while combing your hair straight the whole time. Follow the rinsing directions and your hair should remain straight anywhere from 4-8 weeks depending on how fast your hair grows and how curly it is.

Answer 7

My hair is the identical method, straight untell the ends where it flips a little, and no the straightener more commonly doesnt repair that. However ive located it to be less difficult and more fit for ur hair to head without straighting in any respect but if u have got to, are trying wen u do ur recommendations have the straightener pointing out and go over the equal spot a couple of times idk y but for some motive regularly this works for me

Answer 8

GHD straighteners on totally dry hair. Unless it rains... but even then my hair still stays pretty straight (and I've wavy/ frizzy hair!) I also use Frizz-ease serum mixed in with a little of the boyfriends hair wax.

Answer 9

My hair is wavy but i've perfected my straightening technique. I use treseme products, then brush it when its wet. Use a Hairdryer that blasts the hair till it is completely dry. The best hair straightners are the ghd large plate and they work wonders. then add a bit of serum. perfecto!

Answer 10

you can buy a straightening solution for african american hair. its very strong though so i would suggest using a small amount. it wourks by making the hair very rubbery and elastic so it can be pulled out straight. like the opposite of a perm if you like. you can find it on ebay. salons charge up to £150 for this to be done. so its a cheaper optiont o do it at home. you could maybe find a stylist that would come to your house to do it for you if your not too confident about doing it on your own

Answer 11

Paul Mitchell products are great so is Avons shampoo sleek and shine. My hair is chin length and goes curly quickly but if im going out I use the Avon shampoo and Paul Mitchell gloss drops and does the trick for me.
