Cleansing Your Tresses
Keeping your hair clean is important to helping you feel and look your best.
Shampoos are cleansers developed specifically for the unique chemistry of the hair strands and help remove the impurities that can cause your hair to look greasy, smell poorly and become weighed down and lifeless. Most shampoo products are developed to meet the needs of specific hair types. For example, moisturizing shampoos help replenish hydration in dry hair that is prone to breakage, while volumizing shampoo is meant to give fine and thinning tresses extra body. When choosing a shampoo, look for one made for your specific concerns to get the best results. If your hair is oily or you sweat profusely, you may need to shampoo daily. Drier hair types may benefit from less frequent shampooing.
Keeping Your Hair Nourished
Unlike the other cells of your body, those that make up the hair strands are not living. Once the hair grows long enough for you to see it on your scalp, the visible portion has died, which makes it very vulnerable to becoming brittle and damaged. Fortunately, you can help decrease the likelihood of this occurring by using conditioning products.
Conditioners contain moisturizers and nutrients that nourish the strands, improving hair's texture and helping keep your tresses in the best of health. You can find conditioners for every hair type, with formulas that can be used after shampooing in the shower or tub and that are left to rest on the hair all day.
Getting the Perfect Style
No matter what type of hairstyle you prefer to wear, you likely have days where your hair just doesn't cooperate when it comes time to style.
Styling products can come to your rescue on those bad hair days and help make styling simpler. There are many different types of products available, including serums, sprays, lotions, creams, gels and pomades. All of these products can prove beneficial for specific styling challenges. You can also purchase hairspray to apply to your hair after it's styled that helps keep your tresses looking perfect longer.
Coloring At Home
Hair color treatments let you experiment with different looks and can help you cover gray. Today's at-home hair coloring products are able to rival the results of salon treatments when used properly. You'll need to decide whether you're looking for a permanent hair dye that will stay in place as your hair grows or a semi-permanent color that will rinse out gradually as you wash your hair. Be sure to read the instructions of any hair color product carefully to get the best results.
