You're not alone in your quest for longer, healthier hair. As a hairdresser, I've learned a few tricks over the years that will help you achieve dreamy long hair. Here are five tips you can start using today:
-
Brush Your Hair Daily Sounds simple, but brushing your hair every day is crucial. Not only does it detangle, but it also removes dead skin cells from your scalp, promoting a healthy environment for hair growth. Grab a soft bristle brush and give your hair some love, making sure you can feel it on your scalp.
-
Deep Nourishing Treatments, Your hair craves hydration, just like your skin. Treat it to a deep nourishing treatment twice a week. Keeping your hair hydrated is very important, if your hair is dry and brittle its more likely to break off. Look for products with coconut oil, argan oil, or shea butter to give your hair the moisture and repair it needs.
-
Regular Trims Yes, even if you're growing out your hair, regular trims are vital. Every 8 weeks, get rid of those split ends to make your hair look fuller and healthier. This also prevents the damage from spreading up the hair shaft.
-
Toner or Glosser If you colour your hair, toners and glossers are your best friends. They seal the hair strands making your hair look softer, shinier, and more hydrated.
-
Scalp Massage Who doesn't love a good massage? Using a nourishing oil, like caster oil, give your scalp a gentle massage in circular motions. This stimulates your hair follicles and encourages faster growth. Plus, it's so relaxing!
