Every woman wants to achieve long smooth hair that reflects her personality and makes her feel confident. But due to weather conditions and pollution, women’s hair is easily damaged and is harder to style.
Fortunately, there are ways to address the most common hair issues. Continue reading as we identify the six common hair problems and how to fix them:
Dandruff Or Flaky Scalp
Dandruff or flaky scalp is another common problem. When ridding yourself of dandruff it is best to use a good anti-dandruff shampoo. Infrequent shampooing is at least partially responsible for dandruff. Hence, it is best to wash your hair regularly to keep dandruff away from your scalp.
Some other products that may aid in moisturizing your scalp include lotions, creams, etc. However, if your scalp itches too much you should consult with a skin specialist to determine the cause of dryness.
Oily Hair Causing Lumpiness
If your hair is naturally oily, it is best to use a shampoo that counteracts the oil. Doing so will help you achieve smooth and bouncy hair. Additionally, if you are looking for quick results and prefer to wait for days, not weeks, you can try a dry shampoo. Dry shampoos are good at delivering quick results. In addition to dry shampoos, sulfate-free shampoos are great too.
Hair Damage Due To Harsh Cosmetics
According to beauty experts at Cherie If heavy cosmetics are doing damage to your hair, you may need to give your scalp a ‘cooling-off’ period; this means giving your scalp several days or weeks before applying more chemicals. Likewise, you may also want to trim the ends to ensure good growth.
And do not forget to use a good moisturizer after washing your hair that can retain the good health and natural characteristics of your hair. And when you do return to styling chemicals make sure they do not produce too much heat as that could damage your hair all over again.
Graying Hair
Although, there are many who admire gray hair and who feel that it adds a certain level of refinement, not everyone feels this way about it. In fact, some feel a sense of sadness when they spot the first signs of gray in their hair as it is a sign of aging. Nonetheless, whether we like it or not, at some point we will all experience graying at some point in our lives.
Like so many in my family, I began graying earlier in life — my early twenties. Some refer to this occurrence as premature graying. Whatever the case, scientists have learned that the pattern and timing in which we gray is based upon our genetics; this means if your parents became gray later in life, there is a great likelihood that you could gray later too.
Split Ends
When the ends of your hair strands break into two or smaller hair fragments, this is referred to as having split ends. Often, these strands become fragmented due to damage. Sometimes it is the weather that causes this type of damages and other times it is the chemicals that your stylist applies.
But the thing to remember about split ends is that a good trim should suffice to fix the problem. Alternatively, if want a temporary fix that will last until you see your hairdresser you can apply coconut oil, egg yolk, or even yogurt and these home remedies should at least buy you a few hours until you can see your stylist.
