Basics for Healthy Hair

Haircut Styles presents Basics for Healthy Hair

Healthy hair is something that works from the inside out. That means, if you want to have great locks, you have to start with good nutrition. Ample protein, fresh produce, and water are the keys to getting great looking hair. Vitamin E is also great for a healthy shine. So, try to add some whole grains or nuts into your diet as well. Once you’ve built a foundation of hair-healthy food, caring for your strands is the next step in keeping them healthy.

Washing your hair regularly is important, but over-washing can ruin a healthy head of hair. For most people, washing every two to three days is plenty. Also, choosing the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair is important. This all depends on the type of hair you have, so you will need to get familiar with hot moist, thick, and wavy your locks are. Need help deciding what’s best? Consult a stylist for a second opinion. The same is true when styling hair. You need to choose the right products for your locks. Finally, over doing it with heating appliances, like a blow drier, can fry strands. This is one of the most common ways women ruin their hair. So, use a heat protecting product and keep your appliances on the lowest setting possible. If you follow these tips, you are sure to have healthy hair for years to come.

Hair Care Tools

Using the right hair care tools can enhance the hairstyles that you wear and also protect the hair. Most of the tools are found at local drug stores, while the professional tools are easily available at specialized shops that sell hair care products used by the professional hairstylists at the salons.
There are three different types of brushes that are used for styling the hair. These are the round brush, the paddle brush and the vent brush. Usually the round brush is used for flipping the hair up or making it round at the top at the time of blow drying the hair. The paddle brush is used for longer locks and for curling hair.
A wide tooth comb is sued for detangling the hair especially when it’s wet. Curly hair gets tangled extremely fast and a wide tooth comb can easily loosen the locks without causing any strains. Hair accessories such as hair clips, barrettes, hair pins and rubber bands are used for creating the looks.

Spray bottles are used for wetting the hair during a hair cut. A blow dryer is used for drying and styling the hair in many ways. Curling irons are used for curling the hair in the desired way. Plastic curling irons shouldn’t be used since they might overheat.

Also, use a sun protecting cream or spray on your locks to keep them safe from UV damage. Improving your diet can also help stop hair growth. In fact, poor nutrition can even be the major cause of hair loss in some people. Once you’ve started protecting your hair from future harm, you can star trying to re-grow hair. There are some all-natural remedies that you can try, but these are rarely effective.

Over the counter remedies, like Rogaine, are a more proven option to prevent future hair loss and even re-grow hair. However, these products will not work for everyone. Finally, if all else fails, surgery is a viable option. Hair transplants and other procedures can help restore a full head of hair and bring back your beauty and confidence.

Short or Long Hair?

Haircut Styles presents Short or Long Hair?

Are you considering cutting your hair short? Before you take the plunge, it’s important to know whether short or long hair is right for you. The first thing you need to consider is how attached you are to your long locks. If your emotional bond to your hair is a strong one, you may not be happy when it gets cut off. However, if you decide you can handle the change, the next thing to look at is your face structure.

This is actually the most important consideration when choosing a hair length. The shape of your face plays a big part in what length hair suits you best. People who have a square shaped face tend to find that short cuts do not flatter them. Also, people with round faces benefit from having extra height at the crown. They can still go short, but should be wary of cuts that are flat. Finally, those with longer faces actually look better with shorter hair, but their face can look awkward if the cut is overly cropped. So, once you’ve checked out your face shape, the last thing to think about is your lifestyle. Do you have enough time to take care of long hair each day? Are you willing to get your short cut trimmed frequently? These are questions to think about as they will affect how well you maintain your look.
