The relationship between the appearance of our hair and our well-being Emotional well-being is proven; there are studies on the subject! And the key to beautiful hair, in addition to a good cut and color that flatters our skin tone, is to have healthy hair.
We tell you what they are The 6 mistakes you may be making when washing your hair and that will help keep it healthier than ever.
To achieve healthy hair, we must pay attention to every step of our hair care routine to maximize its effect. These simple daily steps, combined with the use of products suitable for your hair's needs, will help you achieve healthy hair, silky and shiny every day of the year.
1. DO NOT BRUSH YOUR HAIR
Brushing your hair has many benefits besides detangling it. Activates circulation in the scalp and promotes oxygenation of cells and thus the health of the follicles and hair. Remember to brush your hair daily, especially before washing, so that the products penetrate properly. Always do so starting at the ends and gradually moving up to the roots.
2. APPLYING SHAMPOO IN A HURRY
You may have never stopped to think about it, but shampoo has to be emulsify it between your hands before applying itThis way, we activate its properties. Then, we apply it by massaging it in circles into the scalp. It's important to gently press in and let the shampoo sit for a few minutes while gently patting to drain and stimulate circulation. Plus, who can resist a quick massage in the shower?
3. NOT CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE
Just like the rest of our body, no matter how much we might like it, showering with very hot water is not good for us. In the case of hair, it causes more frizz and dehydrates it. The ideal temperature during washing should be lukewarm, and once we're done, the final rinse should be as cold as possible to add shine and seal the cuticle.
4. NOT DRYING WELL
Your hair's best friend after washing it is the microfiber towel, but it is very important that don't roll it, don't pull it, and don't rub it. This, in addition to increasing frizz, breaks and weakens the hair.
5. DO NOT USE OILS
The ends of our hair are the ones that suffer the most from external conditions, brushing and heat tools, that's why to ensure they stay as healthy and hydrated as possible, choose an oil (ideally natural and cold-pressed) that you like and that will help you avoid having to cut corners.
6. NOT HAVING A HAIR CARE ROUTINE
