Layered Hairstyles

Oily scalps, dandruff problems, hair fall and split ends! Tired of it? Maintaining hair is indeed requires a good amount of time but is necessary that rather than treating it like a task make it a part of your weekly routine process. First and foremost use a mild shampoo. Some of the shampoos that are available in the market today are quite harsh on the hair and this causes a lot of hair loss. Hence, use a mild shampoo like a baby shampoo to clean your hair. You really do not want a greasy scalp especially if you have straight hair because they will fall flat on your face. Hence, absolutely avoid eating friend and sugary food because these are food items that will give you nothing but greasy oily scalp! In case you have colored your hair or have treated them with some chemicals, do not let your hair get wet in the rain because this too can cause hair fall. If your hair stays wet for a long time, it makes your scalp vulnerable to fungal infections causing sticky oily dandruff. So before leaving house wash and dry your hair well.

In earlier times or people in the rural are oil their hair quite often which makes their hair so healthy. In today’s times, we hardly have time to oil our hair and wash them hence people postpone oiling their hair and do it just once a month or not even that! But let me tell you that the key to good hair is the fact that you need to oil them twice a week – period. Oiling nourishes the scalp, improves circulation, reduces static, prevents hair fall due to breakage. Coconut oil is great for hair as this has anti fungal and anti bacterial properties. Try and get a hot oil massage – it will not only relax you but improve blood circulation and the health of your hair. In case you suffer from hair fall, use a detangler or a leave on conditioner which will act like a protective sheath on your hair.

It is definitely not easy to maintain long layered hair. You need to eat the right food. In the previous post we studies how hair needs to thright proteins and right vitamins to survive and survive in a healthy state. In this post, I am going to tell you something that hopefully will change your mind towards surviving on fat free foods.

Our human body requires fat in order to be able to properly process and absorb vitamins and nutrients. If you are a kind of person who lives only on fat free food, your long hair will definitely start to suffer and your hair fall will increase. Lack of fat on the body can also have a negative impact on skin and nails.

Human hair utilizes fat stored in the body to thicken and develop luster. There is something called as the healthy fat which is found in food items like nuts, avocadoes, olives, peanut butter, sesame and sunflower seed which is needed for long lustrous hair.

Flaxseed, sunflower seed and sesame seeds are also a contributing factor to healthy fat that is required by your body for good hair growth and good skin.

Our hair requires a lot of protein. When protein isn’t provided in adequate supply, hair growth will stop.  In fact, without the proper supply of protein, hair starts to thin and fall. Beans serve as excellent sources of hair food for vegetarians. The human body needs a constant source of energy which you can give your body with well spaced healthy meals that will eventually show with the kind of hair you have.

Ideally our body systems are well equipped sustain natural hair growth and maintain its beauty but hair problems are very common these days. Most of it is due to nutritional deficiencies, illness, and environmental pollution. You can even have a lot of hair loss or excessively dry hair in case you are suffering from a thyroid problem. Avoid blow drying hair, brushing wet hair, combing dry hair roughly, and rubbing hair vigorously with towel. If your hair gets into too much tangles and knots, go for a trimming to manage your hair better or apply hair products like Livon.

Hair needs proteins vitamins and particularly B-complex vitamins as they play a major role in restoring the health of hair. Iron, zinc, sulphur, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous and iodine are some of the important minerals required for optimum hair growth as well. Also you need to drink lots of water, as it ‘lubricates’ and ‘detoxifies’ the body, and fosters healthy functioning of the body organs and systems that, in turn leads to healthy hair growth.

All of these nutrients can be used for hair loss prevention as well as promoting hair health and re-growth. You can take them as supplements but it is always better to have these nutrients in their natural form.  Other than diets, hair care and regular conditioning are extremely important for maintaining healthy hair growth. Conditioners should be applied weekly or bi-weekly. You also need to regularly roil your hair and massage your scalp to promote oil secretion and improve blood circulation.

Now that we have enlightened you about the advantages of layering your hair, let’s tell you about the other side of the coin. Like everything else, layered hair also has its pros and cons.

Layering your hair is a huge step. Once you’ve layered your hair you have to be stuck to it for a couple of months because on an average, any normal individual’s hair grows approximately half an inch per month.

People who are athletic can also have a problem with this kind of a hairdo.
