Haircare below the shoulder blade level is a difficult thing to cope with. Long hair requires special care.
Cut the ends
Split ends can create a messy look and spoil the impression made by the long hair you’ve taken care of for years. In addition to using special serums and oils (sea buckthorn, argan, pine nuts), which will help the curls look better, you need to use scissors every 3-6 months. Why is there such a large interval of 3-6 months? We can explain this by the fact that only you can know when to trim the hair ends.
Do not believe the myth that a haircut will enhance growth and awaken the “sleepy follicles” (they are actually on the head). In a certain sense, it will indeed strengthen the hair: dry and weak ends are brittle, as a rule. With time, brittleness covers the whole hair length, and “spoiled” hair goes closer and closer to the roots. Don’t be scared and try to preserve such beauty – hair tips won’t become healthier just because you don’t get rid of them.
Don’t forget about the balm
We keep writing about this simple rule in every article, but believe it, not everyone uses this miracle of the modern beauty industry. You can always remember our great-grandmothers who used to wash their hair with sawdust, beer or chamomile tincture and had curls reaching to their toes. Of course, they did not spend any money on additional beauty products.
You can remember the current state of the environment, the quality of food, regular hair dyeing. Besides, you dry your hair with a hairdryer or do styling with a hot curling iron. Even if you are in a hurry, do not skip this remedy – shampoo and mask reveal hair scales (and this makes them “more vulnerable”). It is only with the help of a balm that you can “even” the structure.
Buy a pillow and a comb
The general rules for those who want to maintain the beauty of their curls are a polished wood comb and a pillow with a silk pillowcase. It is believed that these materials do not confuse or dry hair.
How to grow hair fast
This item is for those who dream of beauty but do not yet know how to get it. Alas, we are still relying primarily on genetics. If you have never had long hair and, having grown to a certain limit, it did not move further, you will hardly ever have the hair reaching your shoulder blades or below by just using household care tools (that is, with the help of ampoules, shampoo or food).
By the way, if you switch to a new regimen of nutrition, excluding some of the foods you are used to, or try a new diet, be prepared for not the most benevolent reaction of the body, including hair problems – it always reacts to stress in the first place.
The idea of a particular diet being healthier than another one is a myth. The healthiest option is balanced nutrition, when the body does not miss anything.
Why, then, are all these growth-enhancing means needed, if nature cannot be persuaded?
Firstly, many foods do not promise to turn you into Rapunzel, they neatly communicate that they will save what you have and improve your appearance. They can really have a positive effect: the hair will not get longer, but it will fall out less often and become more voluminous. It’s not bad, if you agree.
Secondly, coupled with advice and procedures from a trichologist (for example, plasma lifting), various products can give an even greater boost.
