Improving-the-Health-of-Your-Hair-300x300 (1)

Hair form an important aspect of our personality. The way we style them tells a lot about our personality. In order to keep them healthy and avoid thinning and hair loss, it is important that we take good care of them. It is not a very difficult task but one that needs perseverance on our end. Should we follow the following tips, we can certainly improve our follicular health.

Hygiene

The first step is to keep our hair clean. Dandruff which makes the hair follicles weak finds it hard to stay on a clean scalp. Using products that have good nutrients also helps in improving the health of the hair.

Massage

Massage stimulates the scalp and improves the flow of blood. It is recommended that massage is done on a daily basis for a few minutes to ensure healthy hair.

Protein

Protein is the basic building block of the body. If a person is not taking enough protein, it can damage the body in an adverse manner and hair too can take a hit. Protein is found in sea food, lentils, chicken, beef and eggs. Ensuring its regular intake in the required quantities can help your hair in staying healthy.

Vitamins

These are found in a number of foods as well as in form of supplements. All vitamins are important for the health of hair. However, Vitamin C and Biotin, a B-Vitamin, are very important. These are found citrus fruits, spinach, eggs, berries, fish and in some vegetables. You can also make use of multi vitamin supplements available in pharmacies.

Hormonal Balance

Hormonal misbalance can adversely affect hair. Androgenic Alopecia, the root cause of hair loss is caused due to the excess of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a male hormone which is also found in women in small quantities. Seeing your doctor and ensuring that your hormonal levels remain normal is very important in ensuring a healthy scalp.

Use Oils

Oils have been traditionally used for keeping hair healthy. Olive oil, coconut oil and almond oil all work well. You can massage the scalp with small quantities of these oils and wash them away later on for great hair.

Vinegar Wash

Take a tablespoon of vinegar with two to three cups of water and wash your hair with the solution. Then shampoo to get rid of the residue and you will get fantastic hair.

UV Protection

Like skin, there are ultra violet protection products for hair as well. Ensure that you use them before leaving for outdoors on a bright sunny day.

Hair Masks

For people spending a lot of time in the outdoors, a hair mask can rejuvenate the hair at the end of the day to ensure that the damage done during the day is reversed.
