Hair Care Tips and Natural Home Remedies

Swimming Natural Hair Care Tips

This hair care tip is straight from a hair stylist I know. She gave me a list of different things you can do to help care for your hair. If you have blond or light colored hair and you swim in a chlorinated pool you will want to use this hair care natural tip to prevent your hair from turning green: take your hair and wet it and put a small amount of hair conditioner all over your hair, then place your hair in a swim cap. If you do not have a swim cap avoid swimming in a pool with dry hair because it is really not good for your hair. The dry hair shafts absorb the chlorinated water immediately causing your hair to turn green and also dry your hair out! Always wet your hair before swimming. If you cannot afford expensive shampoos and conditioners I have found that Dove products work best compared to other name brand products. Washing your hair every other day prevents your hair from drying out. Products that contain alcohol will dry your hair out so try and avoid any shampoos or other hair products that contain alcohol. It is always better to use a natural home remedy for hair care if possible. My hair stylist also told me to observe how fast my hair grows particularly if one side grows faster than the other. She said that the side of your head that your hair grows faster is usually the side that you sleep on because it is stimulating your scalp! Be careful with wet hair because it will stretch when you brush or comb it while it is wet. Use a large toothed comb and gently brush it out to prevent breakage.
If you ever put your hair in ponytails, never ever use any small rubber bands or anything with a hard surface because you will see the hair break. Use soft cloth ties instead! Last but not least are my hair stylist tips on preventing sun damage to your hair! Always use a sun block on your scalp and/or wear a hat to protect your hair and skin from sun damage. The sun can dry your hair making it look dull and feel dry.

A hair care natural tip for removing old product from your hair is simply white vinegar. When we use the same hair care products day in and day out a residue of these products build up on our hair and in turn cause our hair to appear dull and lifeless. But, if you use this tip at least twice a month you will notice your hair looking much more vibrant. You only need to use 1 cup of white vinegar. Just rinse your hair with this vinegar and let the vinegar sit on your hair for about 5 minutes, then wash and condition as usual.
