Simplified Hair Care Routine

Your hair is 90% of your perfect selfie. Hence, It’s important to keep them healthy. The most critical aspect of a hair care routine is knowing your hair type. Because different hair responds to different hair care. While knowing your hair type is the first step, understanding what works for you and what doesn’t is crucial. So, let’s have a look at a hair care routine that WORKS.

1/ Know your products 

The foundation of any hair care routine is the product you use. Hence, it is essential to know your products. Instead of buying the products because you want hair like your favorite celebrity, read the ingredients carefully.
A sulfate-free shampoo is the one you should switch to. Using a sulfate-free shampoo helps the scalp with moisture retention. It also helps to maintain natural oils, which means frizz-free hair. Since the labels behind the products can be confusing, here is a list of some commonly used sulfate derivatives. 

• Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laureth Sulfate.
• Sodium Myreth Sulfate (SMS).
• Triethanolamine (TEA).

Sulfate-free shampoos are great for colored hair. As they help to maintain the color for a longer time.
When selecting products for your hair care, choose the ones that align with your lifestyle and serve multiple purposes.  

2/ A Dedicated hair wash day

There are 7 days a week and one of them has to be your hair wash day. Washing your hair regularly helps to keep them healthy and clean. Now there is one question which always trends on the internet. 

How many times should you wash your hair in a week?

There is no common denominator. 

The frequency of the hair wash depends on the hair type and your lifestyle. Hence, the best advice would be to set a frequency that works for you or consult your Dermat.

In general, you should wash your hair depending on your scalp condition. If your scalp is oily, you may need to wash it regularly. Dry/damaged hair needs to have a hair wash every 5–7 days. If your work involves a lot of exposure to dust and pollution, frequent washing or at least rinsing may be necessary.

3/ Have a proper hair wash  

When it comes to having a proper hair wash, It is not about WHAT you do, but HOW you do it. 

• Concentrate shampoo on the scalp rather than focusing on the length of the hair. 
• Rinse your hair thoroughly after a shampoo with cold water.
• Use conditioner and apply it on the tips of the hair, avoiding the roots.

The word shampoo is derived from the Indian Sanskrit word ‘Champi’ which means massage. And that’s how your hair wash sessions should feel like — A massage. 

4/ Prevent heat damage

Heat styling can be an easy way to have silky smooth hair. But using it frequently can result in hair damage. Excessive heat damage can even lead to breakage. Hence, it is important to protect your hair from heat.
To prevent your hair from heat damage, you can use heat sprays or adopt air drying your hair. Avoid using heat styling frequently. And when you do, ensure that you use it on fully dry hair.

5/ Have healthy hair habits

It is an open secret that leading a healthy lifestyle can give you glowing skin and attractive hair. Since we are metropolitans running on tight schedules, it is hard to shift to a healthy lifestyle. But we can surely adopt healthy habits for our hair. 

One of the easiest hacks to having beautiful hair is drinking a lot of water. Staying hydrated can add more value to your hair care than any product ever will. Use silk pillowcases to reduce friction and a wide tooth comb to detangle.

6/ Healthy diet for healthy hair

Have a balanced diet. Although a lot of factors affect your hair health, diet is the only one you can control. Your diet can fill the gaps created by your genetics.
Some of the best foods with high nutritional value are eggs, berries, Leafy greens, and fatty fish. These foods are rich sources of proteins, vitamins, and minerals which are essential for hair growth. 

7/Re-nourish your hair

When your hair loses all its strength and shine, it needs to be nourished with care. A hair mask can provide all the nourishment your hair needs. It is often referred to as deep conditioning treatment since it provides all the moisture required for healthy hair.
Coconut oil is another simple product that can protect your hair and improve its condition. Applying hair oil before and after washing can prevent damage. It also helps to reduce protein loss in your hair. The best part about this product is, it is available in every Indian household. A hair serum can be another great add-on to your hair care kit since it keeps the hair smooth and shiny.

8/ Functional hairstyles

Having a hairstyle that keeps your hair out of your face is not only functional but also productive. For someone with a tight schedule, they can make you look chic in no time.
