Is your hair unmanageable? Do you feel like you always have bad
hair days while all those around you seem to have the perfectly
coiffured look? With a few simple remedial measures, you can have the
gorgeous mane of your dreams.
The most common problem is hairfall.
Any change in food, lifestyle, health, and weather can cause hairfall.
If you are a new mother or if you have just weaned your child, you will
probably shed hair for a few weeks. If your haemoglobin levels are low
or if you are a diabetic, or even if you are on a weight-loss program,
chances are you will have chronic hair fall. Some amount of hair
shedding can happen if colouring or perming is not done properly.
The
easiest remedy for any hair problem, including hair fall, is a
well-balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Stress is also
another main cause for losing hair so making lifestyle adjustments and
meditation can help in reducing hairfall.
Wash your hair regularly
with a mild shampoo and a good conditioner. Check the ingredients of
the shampoo before you buy. Avoid shampoos with high levels of alcohol
or wax. A good hair serum or balm can help replenish natural oils.
Remember to brush your hair at least once a day to keep the tangles out
and to stimulate the roots.
Colouring your hair at home is fine
but it is better done by a professional hairdresser. A good hairstylist
will be able to advise you on the hair colour that will suit you the
best. If you are planning to colour your hair by yourself, make sure you
pick up the correct product and test it on one strand of your hair for
reactions before you apply fully. Remember to use gloves and apply a
little Vaseline along the hairline to prevent staining of your skin. And
never colour your eyelashes or eyebrows. You could opt for temporary,
semi-permanent, or permanent colouring. Only use a shampoo that is meant
for coloured hair to protect your hair and to help the colour stay on
longer.
Highlighting your hair is a good way to enhance your
features. Get it done professionally for best results. You will probably
need two shades to enhance the highlights and highlighting the hair
around your face will give you a glowing look.
After colouring your hair, get a gloss treatment done which enriches the colour and makes hair glow with extra shine.
Getting
your hair styled by an experienced hairdresser can give you a
completely new look and make you feel good too. If you have an
oval-shaped face, any hairstyle will suit you but you should not pile up
hair on top of your head as that would make your face seem longer. A
fringe will suit you only if you have a heart-shaped face. Blunt cuts
and bangs are only for oval or long faces and not for square or round
faces.
