Stylists have always recommended ways to keep hair clean and voluminous for longer periods of time. Follow these 9 rules to maintain your hair’s health and appearance.
1. Water Temperature
Make sure the water temperature is comfortable for you. Stand in the shower for a minute to ensure that your hair is already wet.
2. Shampoo Application
Squeeze out some shampoo, the size of a large coin, onto your hands and rub them together. Apply the shampoo onto your head in a circular motion, moving from the top of your head to the bottom.
3. Rinsing
Rinsing takes more time than applying. Stylists recommend washing out the shampoo for 5 minutes. Left and dried shampoo particles can cause dull hair color and even the appearance of dandruff.
4. Cold Water Rinse
It’s also recommended to rinse your hair with cold water in the end. This will lead to the strengthening of hair cuticles and your hair will be able to keep in more moisture and appear shinier.
5.Everyday Hairstyle Planning
Everyday hairstyle planning with increasing complexity allows you to wash your hair less frequently and look amazing each day.
6.Tinctures Made of Herbs
Tinctures made of herbs do well when fighting against greasy hair. Sage soothes the skin and treats inflammation. You’ll need 4 tablespoons of dry sage for one liter of water. Sage can be brewed just like ordinary tea. When the tincture has cooled, rinse your clean hair with it, and then rinse your hair with cool, clear water.
7.Changing Washing Habits
If you wash your hair every day, you should change this habit slowly. As time passes, the intensity of the work done by the sebaceous glands declines, and there will be no need to restore the skin’s balance after everyday washing.
8.Dry Shampoo
It’s rather useless to use dry shampoo after a workout since the hair becomes so greasy that we can do nothing with it. It is better to apply dry shampoo before exercising so that it can absorb all of the sweat during a workout.
9.Clean Pillowcases
It’s very pleasant for us and useful for hair to sleep on clean pillows. As time passes, pillowcases absorb epidermal cells and old makeup, creating an enabling environment for bacteria. To support our skin and hair health, we have to change pillowcases at least once a week. And if your hair is greasy, you’d better do it twice a week.
10.Lemonade for Hair
A “lemonade” for hair helps fight against excessive greasiness, keep your hair fresh and voluminous, and create natural shine. It’s very easy to prepare it — mix juice squeezed out of one lemon with one liter of water and rinse your hair with this mixture. It’s recommended to pour it slowly and massage your hair roots with one hand.
11.High Hairstyles
High hairstyles keep one’s hair fresh longer. If you’re at home, make a high ponytail or a bun and let your hair down before you go out. This trick will also add some volume to your hair.
12.Hair Care Products
All “heavy” skin care products (masks, balms, conditioners) are mostly to be used for hair ends. But there is an exception: head skin masks. It’s recommended to apply it in pair with deep peeling. Hydrated skin won’t produce any excessive sebum. It’s better not to apply the mask on top of your head but to apply it where your hair parts and massage your skin.
Another tip to keep hair clean and voluminous is to use a wide-toothed comb instead of a brush. Brushes can cause hair to become greasy faster due to the pulling and stretching of the hair. Also, avoid touching your hair too much as the natural oils from your fingers can make your hair look greasy.
Lastly, it’s important to remember that not all hair types are the same, and what works for one person may not work for another. Experiment with different techniques and products to find what works best for your hair. And always consult with a professional stylist for personalized advice on maintaining healthy, clean, and voluminous hair.
