Hey y’all and welcome back! Today I wanted to share with you some of my favourite hair hacks to prevent split ends and keep your hair healthier in general. I personally use all of these hacks on a daily basis to keep my hair healthy. So without further ado here are my tips.
1. SHAMPOOING
If you shampoo your hair everyday it is more likely to become prone to frizz, split ends and dullness. Shampoo is meant to cleanse/strip your hair from all the build up of dirt and oils and the more you wash your hair the more oils your scalp produces. Therefore I recommend that you skip at least one day in between each time you shampoo.
2. WATER
Water is the main source of energy for the cells in your body which are responsible for the health and growth of your hair. Water can also help cure things like dandruff by giving your scalp more moisture so make sure you stay hydrated!
3. PILLOWCASES
Sleeping on silk pillow will not only prevent your hair from damage and frizz but it will also keep your hairstyles (i.e. blow drying, straightening, etc.) in tact for longer. Some of my favourite silk pillowcases to use are from Kitsch.
4. WET HAIR
When your hair is wet it is 30% more elastic which can make your hair more prone to damage/breakage. So when your hair is wet avoid brushing it with a regular brush and instead use a wide tooth comb. Also make sure to start brushing your hair from the bottom, working your way up to the top.
5. TOWEL DRYING
Drying your hair with a regular towel can cause damage by roughing your hair cuticles which can lead to further damage like split ends, hair breakage and frizziness. I recommend using a micro fibre towel to dry your hair as it can absorb the moisture of your hair up to four time faster than a regular towel and it is a lot more gentle on the shafts of your hair.
