101 Hair Care Methods
By: Kenia Morales
The way our hair looks and feels is such an
important matter to us “women”. It is the
frame of our faces. Therefore, one of the
first things people notice when they see us.
So it is only natural that we all want to
have it looking and feeling the best way
possible. However, if you want to have
radiant, shiny hair there is one thing you
must understand whether it is straight,
wavy, curly or coarse: In order to have
healthy hair we must take proper care of it.
This takes extra effort but, the results are
more than worth it. Below I have added some
tips that guarantee to give hair a healthy
sheen and maintain it (for any hair type).
• Chemicals like hair relaxers and color can
really damage the structure of your hair.
However, I do not believe that women will
stop using them and we don’t have to as long
as we maintain their use to a minimal and
take care of it properly.
• Deep condition it every week or at least
every two weeks. How can you do this?
Shampoo hair as usual, rinse off, apply your
favorite conditioner, cover hair with a
plastic cap and get under a bonnet or hard
hat hair dryer. Stay there anywhere from
10-20 minutes. If you don’t have a bonnet
dryer you might want to use the blower to
heat over the plastic cap and last rinse
conditioner off.
• Whether you do your hair at home or at the
salon you should start setting or doing
rollers rather than drying it up with the
blower or other hot appliances (bonnet dryer
heat is less damaging). Hair rollers will
leave it with more body but, if you want a
sleeker look you may want to use the blow
dryer afterwards, just to get the look you
want. Your hair will look nice while
maintaining the use of hot appliances to a
minimal amount of time. Note: heat rollers
should also be avoided.
• Do not wash hair daily. Wait for at least
four to seven days before your next wash.
Washing your hair too often strips away its
natural oils.
• Use leave in hair treatments.
• Use hair products that help protect it
from the sun. The label should say UVA & UVB
Protection or SPF.
• Sleep with a satin or silk pillow case.
You can find them in your local beauty shop
or department store for a few dollars.
• Eat properly and take multi vitamins to
ensure you are getting all the required
nutrients for your body in general and hair.
