7 easy hair care tips you can do at home

There are simple things you can do at home to give your hair the extra TLC it needs. Here are 7 effective hair care tips you can do at home, without the need to go to the salon every time!

1) Choose your haircut based on your lifestyle

Fashionable and stylish haircuts are nice, but they're not always practical. If your lifestyle isn't too adventurous, we recommend an up-do. It's simple to style and will look polished even when you're in a rush. Plus, it doesn't matter if it gets wet because it'll dry back into place without any effort on your part!

2) Cleanse your scalp regularly

Regularly cleaning your scalp is the best way to avoid buildup, which can result in dandruff, scalp irritation, and acne. If you're worried about your skin's sensitivity, try using a gentle dish soap like Dawn or Ivory. Make sure to wash your hands before applying shampoo so as not to introduce any bacteria into the equation. Remember: rinse well! You don't want all that soap sitting on your head.

3) Use heat protectant spray before blow drying

1. Use heat protectant spray before blow drying your hair. Heat protectant sprays are designed to create a barrier between the dryer and the hair, preventing frizz and flyaway hairs. Plus, it will help your style last longer.

4) Use a flat iron only on dry hair

It's not uncommon for your kids to sneak into your bathroom and raid your stash of styling products. There are a few things you can do to stop this from happening. 

1. Put the product in an out-of-reach place, like a high cabinet or on top of the refrigerator. 

2. Hide it so that they'll never find it - fill a box with other household items and place the product in there. 

3. Tell them how expensive it is so they will know how much effort went into buying it and will be more likely to leave it alone when they see that price tag.

5) Wash your brushes and combs

It's important to clean your brushes and combs on a regular basis. This will prevent bacteria from developing and spreading, which could lead to scalp or hair loss. To clean the brushes, use lukewarm water and mild shampoo while washing your scalp with lukewarm water. Rinse thoroughly, then squeeze excess water out of the brush before placing it on a towel to dry. To wash the comb, use lukewarm water and mild shampoo while also using your fingers to gently massage the scalp in circular motions. Rinse thoroughly, then rinse with cool water before squeezing excess water out of the comb and placing it on a towel to dry.

6) Stop letting your kids use your products

It's time to teach your kids how to take care of their own hair! Even if they don't have a lot, it doesn't mean that they won't need to clean, style, and maintain it. Giving them their own products will help them take ownership of themselves and their hygiene, which is important for their self-esteem. Take the time to go over a few basic tips with them so that they know what to do when you're not there to help.

1) Always use conditioner on wet hair after washing and conditioning - this will add moisture back into your child's locks and make styling much easier! 2) Use a wide tooth comb or brush while combing through wet hair - brushing while it is dry could break hairs off.

7) Go to the salon every month or two

It's important to have your haircut every six to eight weeks. If you wait too long, the style will get old and start to look like a mullet. It's also important to shampoo and conditions your hair every two or three days. That way, it will always be fresh and healthy-looking. You should also use a deep conditioner once a week for silky, healthy-looking locks. Lastly, make sure to use products that are appropriate for your hair type! For example, if you have curly hair make sure the product is for curly hair because it will last longer and give better results than a product designed for straight hair that might not work as well. It takes some time but these seven simple steps are worth it!
