Hair Care Tips BY RYDRLESSHORSE |
|
For hair that is dry or hair that's
breaking off, olive oil is a good solution. Before washing or
even wetting hair, put about 1/6 - 1/4 cup of olive oil (closer
to 1/6 for shorter hair, and closer to 1/4 for longer, thicker
hair) on it and work it through from the scalp to the ends. Leave
it on for about 10 or 15 minutes. After that, you can shampoo
and condition as usual. This works because its very oily, but
not the nasty, dirty grease that builds up. It's not heavy at
all, but in fact, very thin and loose. It works great for smoothing
and moistening dry hair! I do it once a week and it works magnificently! |

Clarify Your Hair BY LREED65 |
|
An inexpensive way to clarify your
hair is to use your usual shampoo, during the first lather, take
a handful of baking soda and work it into the lather thoroughly.
Let it set for a few minutes, depending on how much styling buildup
you have on your hair. Rinse and shampoo again without baking
soda, then condition. The baking soda makes an excellent chelating
aid. It is also advisable to clarify at least every two weeks
to remove product buildup. Always clarify before doing a deep
conditioning treatment. Otherwise you will be conditioning over
product buildup which really won't be beneficial. Chelating also
removes trace buildup of prescription drugs that buildup in your
hair. Treat yourself to a scalp massage, this facilitates healthy
hair growth by stimulating the blood supply to you scalp. |
