Yes, There Are Ways to Help Keep Your Hair Healthy
Preventing thinning hair can be a struggle and hair loss can be embarrassing, but you should not be ashamed. It is normal for a person shed hair on a daily basis, but there are things that you might be doing to cause damage or make it thin. If you are a woman reading this, then you know how recognizable it is when your hair begins to thin. No matter what type of hair loss or hair thinning you are experiencing, try a few of these tips to help.
Brush Your Hair Gently
While you are brushing your hair with plastic or metal bristles, understand that those types of bristles can be damaging to your hair. If you combine harsh brushing with a blow dryer, then you can cause harm to your hair follicles. Think about switching your old brush with a quality brush made of bristles that are softer.
Do Not Over Heat
Heat can easily damage your hair, so if hair loss or thinning hair is a major concern, try letting it air-dry instead. Air drying will take much longer to dry, but it will help keep your hair healthier. If you must use heat on your hair, then try to use the setting with the least amount of heat possible.
Restrict The Amount Of Color
Any type of dye or highlights can cause damage. If you are looking for a change or feel the urge to add color to your hair, try to stick with highlights that are closer to the color of your scalp. Choosing highlights similar to your scalp can hide some of your thinning and also make your roots appear thicker.
Change Your Part
Over time as you continue to part your hair the same way, it can start to rest on your scalp. Try changing up the way you part your hair making your hair stand off your scalp, which will make your hair look thicker. Changing the direction of your part is an easy way to add volume to your style.
Volume. Volume. Volume.
If you are experiencing temporary hair thinning, then adding more layers to your haircut will make your hair look more full. If you are noting more permanent thinning then using laser hair loss therapy will help slow down your hair from thinning and give it the appearance of thicker hair.
Focus On the Scalp with A Massage
Almost everyone loves massages so let this be your excuse to need one. Using coconut oil, massage the oil into your scalp with a circular motion. Do this before shampooing and using the circular motion will keep roots and follicles actively growing.
