The Best Ways To Keep Hair Healthy

There are many different ways to keep hair healthy, and by following at least some of them you can ensure that your hair will look shiny, strong and bouncy every day. Always get your ends trimmed on a regular basis, preferable every four to eight weeks. Over time, hair gets more prone to splitting, so be sure to remove the damaged ends in order to maintain a healthy look. When blow-drying hair, always use the nozzle on the end because it helps prevent frizz and focuses the flow of hot air to a specific region. It is harder to keep hair healthy when you blow-dry without a nozzle because the hot air blows everywhere and causes more damage and even breakage in your hair. Another one of the best ways to keep hair healthy is to mist your ends with water before home coloring. The ends of your hair are more porous, and tend to absorb most of the color pigment, which can result in an uneven looking color. For more hair coloring tips, read The Best At Home Hair Color Tips.

Using color-protective products is another one of the best ways to keep hair healthy because regular chemical treatments such as hair coloring can damage hair. Color-protective products will help minimize dryness, keep color true and prevent damage, in addition to nourishing hair. Some great products that help protect color include Loreal Vive Color Care Shampoo and Matrix Biolage Color Care Shampoo. Another way to keep hair healthy is to give your hair a break once in a while. Space out coloring and heat treatments, and if you can, allow your hair to air dry on certain days instead of using the blowdryer. Or of you simply must blow-dry your hair, skip the flat iron at least for a day, as applying multiple heat treatments in on setting will put your hair through more stress and damage.
