Practices for healthy hair!
Your hair is dry, fragile and dull despite all the hair care you do? Indeed, if the problem does not lie in the lack of hydration, it can however be found in your little habits.
This is what the content creator and hairdressing specialist, Michelle Kramer, explains on her Tik Tok account. Now for healthy, silky hair. Discover the 5 practices that you absolutely should change starting today.
Not washing your hairbrush
It is important to disinfect your hairbrush regularly. Indeed, over time, this tool accumulates residues of hair, dust, dead cells, products…. And if not properly cleaned, it can even end up transmitting diseases and allergies to the scalp.
So to help you avoid this type of problem, you must first remove the bits stuck in the bristles of your brush. If your brush is plastic, soak it in soapy water for 20 minutes.
To properly disinfect it, you can also immerse it in a mixture of one liter of water with 1 tablespoon of bleach.
So, to rub it in depth, finally use an old toothbrush (to be done every 15 days ideally). For wooden brushes, the ideal is that they are washed in a classic way. Indeed, despite their resistance to humidity, they can end up rotting from being soaked.
Skip the thermal protector
From now on, the thermo-protective spray is an essential product in the routine of people who regularly use the hair dryer, the straightener…
Indeed, the use of these devices can damage your hair and make it fragile and brittle. Before using a heating device, the use of a product offering thermal protection is therefore essential.
Use latex rubber bands
Have you ever worn this type of elastic? You certainly soon regretted it. Indeed, tying your hair with latex rubber bands is a habit to give up as soon as possible. The latter quickly cling to the locks and weaken them.
Use a regular towel to wring them out
Do you believe that the material of a towel has no consequence on your hair? You are wrong ! Indeed, we recommend that you use a microfiber towel. This fabric absorbs up to twice as much moisture as a traditional cotton version.
Use of hair dryer and straightener
Another frequent threat…. Use of hair dryer and straightening iron. It’s actually about straightening the hair without damaging it. “In this case, you must be careful never to run the straightener over wet or damp hair and always apply a product that protects the hair from excess heat. For frizzy, curly/frizzy and wavy hair, it is advisable to equip the hair dryer with a diffuser to facilitate styling and avoid breakage”. Thus explains the influencer.
