be doing wrong that aren’t helping your hair get there.
1. OVER SHAMPOOING
Believe it or not, shampooing your hair too often may actually work against you. They aren’t
suggesting running around with dirty, oily strands, but do try and take a break
between your washes. If you can, try shampooing at least every other day,
especially if you are typically washing daily. Over shampooing can strip hair
of its natural oils and end up drying it out. Try a great dry shampoo like Bumble & bumble Hair Powder or Osis Dust It to help keep hair looking fresh. Try and stop washing your hair with
shampoo always and you will see how perfect and good your hair will look good,
and will look like their own.
2. HOT TOOL ABUSE
From flat irons and
curling tools wants to our blow dryers, we’re all guilty of being addicted to
our hot styling tools. But hot tool abuse leads to split and dry, damaged hair.
When using your hot tools, don’t gravitate toward the highest heat possible;
instead, try a low or medium heat setting. Fine to medium hair should always be
used on these settings, only very thick and course hair really needs high heat.
To prevent and minimize damage, use a thermal protecting spray before styling. A
hot tool shrinks/reduces the hair and makes it look smaller and scanty. Try not
to use all this tools always and if you must use it, then use it on low heat.
3. USING THE WRONG BRUSH SIZE
When you always use
the wrong brush to style or brush your hair, it will break and cut it. If
you’re drying your hair straight and not sure what round brushes to try, use
your hair length as a cue. If you have shorter hair, you should be using a
smaller brush with about a one-inch diameter. For longer hair, use a medium to
large brush that’s at least a few inches around.
4. BECOMING A STYLING PRODUCT JUNKIE
Styling products
are great for just about anything from adding volume to your tresses to helping
reign in control of your mane. But when you’re a styling product junkie that
overdoses on products, they end up working against you. Too much mouse, gel or
pomade will actually weigh down hair and often, result in a greasy look and
unnatural texture. Stick to small amounts. When you are always impatient and
want quicker results, you tend to apply them too much on your hair, which won’t
give you a good and perfect result. Instead it will damage the texture of your
hair and poor growth.
5. SKIPPING YOUR REGULAR TRIM
If you’re growing
your hair out, it can be tempting to skip out on your regular trim but the fact
remains, your hair needs one at least every six to eight weeks. Don’t skip out
on this importance maintenance check; it will keep your hair healthy and in tip
top shape.
6. NOT DIVIDING AND CONQUERING
Always try to
section or divide your hair into different parts, in other to give all the
parts equal treatment and attention. When you don’t do that, they won’t grow
well. A good stylist starts with properly sectioning off your hair. To do so,
divide your hair into three sections, split horizontally. Get some clips or
pins to secure the topmost sections so you can concentrate on the bottom. Then,
just work your way up and you will get a perfect result
