What is your hair type.
Just like the skin,your hair has a type and if you want your hair to look at its best you need it to treat it with products and techniques that suits it’s type.
At one time, type simply meant either oily or dry, and shampoo dealt with these two things by either moisturizing dry hair or stripping the oil out of greasy hair. How ever not all dry hair required the same amount of moisturizing and not all oily hair responded well.
If you are a woman with curly hair (which is often dry) you will need a lot more moisture on your hair than a woman with chemically treated hair (which is dry at the ends but often greasier at the roots. Put intensive moisture on that hair and you will just end with limp oily looks. Therefore the best way is to determine your hair type is not by deciding if it is oily or dry but by analyzing fundamental structure, which then tells you how to make the most of your hair.
Processed Hair:
Colouring, perming and relaxing do make the hair look great; creating shade and depth-and also thickening the hair when they are applied.But they come at a cost. The chemicals used in these process permanently change the interior of the hair shaft making it prone to breaking, splitting or frizzing. Also the disruption of the cuticle prevents light reflecting from the hair surface, making the processed hair far likely to shine than natural hair.
Taking care for processed hair:
To care for processed hair, adding moisture is the key. But there is always a small problem here.Processed hair is often also combination hair, with oily roots but dry shafts and ends and just as with combination skin, tackling with one leads to problems with the other.Washing processed hair is a delicate balancing act of cleansing roots and moisturizing ends.
Top 5 Tips For Processed Hair:
1) First, to clean your coloured hair choose a shampoo that is especially made for coloured hair. It means it will be more gentle on your hair and will contain ingredients to preserve color. If your hair is permed or relaxed then choose any moisturizing shampoo, but in both cases you make sure you apply it only to your roots and always rub it in well.Then apply a quick burst of water and as the shampoo suds run downs the hair shaft ,massage the hair to remove any dirt and grime. Rinse well.
2) After shampooing, it is time to condition.Use a rich conditioner, mainly at the ends of the hair, smoothing the left overs on your palms to the rest of the shaft. Rinse well.
3)Processed hair is very porus and will drink in any thing you put on it, making it harder for you to rinse out the shampoo and conditioners.Make sure that the water in which you wash your hair is absolutely clear then keep rinsing for one minute more before you put that shower head away.
4)Naturally dry your hair when ever possible-heat can dehydrate hair further.Avoid harsh rubbing with a towel as this can make tangles in the hair increase snapping of the strands.If you are using a blow- dryer, it’s a good idea to first apply a little serum to the ends of the hair to seal in the moisture and also to prevent further dehydration.
5 : Splits travel up the hair harming healthy hair. One sign of real damage is serious tangling when you comb the hair. This shows there are splits or tears in the hair shaft which is causing the hairs to web together.Book in for a trim and ideally have every thing cut from where those tangles start.
