Stunning Hair
Ladies who aspire to look stunning almost always start with their tresses. There is nothing like a head of soft, fluffy hair that always catches the eye. So how does one get shining and full-bodied hair? Try these unbeatable tips for stunning hair glowing with health!
Washing and Drying Hair Tips:
- Don’t over-wash your hair. Try not to wash your hair with shampoo every single day. For days that you do not wash your hair, apply a fragrant refreshing mist.
- Don’t apply shampoo directly to the top of your head. Apply shampoo from the nape of the neck first, and then work it through the rest of your hair.
- Distribute cleansing and styling products evenly through your hair. Use a comb to spread the conditioner evenly through your hair.
- Avoid wrapping your hair in a towel and leaving it twisted up on your head for long as it can damage the hair.
- Avoid blow-drying your hair everyday. Allow your hair to dry naturally whenever possible.
To find a product that is best suited for your hair, you may have to sample a few different brands. Visit your local drugstore and check out the entire hair products aisle for the best selection, or consult your hairstylist.
Hair Styling Tips:
- Accessorize! On days when you just don’t have time, go for a ponytail or a headband. Your hair can look really cute even if you don’t spend a long time styling it.
- Experiment with color. A new color will add some zest to your appearance. If you are wary of dying your hair try a brand that washes out in eight shampoos.
- Make a new haircut. Colors and accessories do lend a lot to a hairstyle; however, haircuts are the true standby for a new look.
- Select styling tools to vary your look. Curling irons, flatirons, combs, pins, clips and an assortment of brushes offer nice diversity for hairstyles.
If you don’t feel like fighting with your hair today, wear it straight. For hair that behaves rather well, let it dry naturally. If your hair requires more maintenance, apply a gentle styling product to prevent frizzy hair. Remember, a sexy, straight hairstyle can be perfect with any outfit, for any occasion.
A healthy diet helps the body in its efforts to heal itself.
- To maintain healthy hair and help prevent loss, try these two simple changes:
Make sure you’re getting enough omega-3 fatty acids. Eat wild Alaskan salmon, sardines, herring or mackerel two or three times a week, or sprinkle two tablespoons of freshly ground flaxseeds per day on cereal or salads. - Supplement your diet with GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) in the form of black currant oil or evening primrose oil. Take 500 mg of either twice a day for six to eight weeks to see if it helps.
