Hair Care & Maintenance Tips
- 1). Clean the hair thoroughly on a regular basis. Daily washing isn't required, but maintain a consistent schedule. Rinse thoroughly each night if you use hair styling products.
- 2). Brush and comb the hair to redistribute natural oils that accumulate through the hair. This action will also help remove knotting and tangles.
- 3). Request a trusted friend inspect hair to look for split ends, gray hair and irregular hairs. There are areas that you will have difficulty inspecting on your own, and this session can provide insight on alternate methods to style your hair.
- 4). Limit supplemental hair care products (conditioner, scalp cream, etc) to no more then weekly sessions. When using these supplemental products, let the products soak in before rinsing.
- 5). Limit products which can dry out the hair and make it brittle. Products include gels, mousse, or hair spray which contains alcohol. Also, limit the exposure hair has to heated air when using a hair dryer.
