Trimming your hair does not affect how fast your hair grows. Human hair can grow only about half an inch every month no matter how regularly you cut it. It may grow a bit faster during the summer, but in the end, your hormones dictate how quickly it grows, rather than how frequently you visit your stylist. Your hair may look better though by getting a trim to get rid of split ends.
Don't tug or rub your hair with your towel when you are drying your hair. This causes your hair to frizz, and it stretches the strands of hair, causing them to potentially break. Use softer patting or blotting to remove excess water. You could also try a gentle squeeze with your towel. Also, you should not use a brush or comb on wet hair, unless the comb is wide-toothed.
Always find hair care products that are made of natural ingredients. Use shampoos and conditioners made for your hair type. Try a variety of hair products and find the right ones for your particular needs.
When you brush your hair, begin at the ends and work upward. Work out knots carefully and slowly so that you prevent any breakage. You'll be able to use slow, gentle strokes down from the roots all the way to the ends, after you get rid of the knots.
It's best to let your hair dry before combing or brushing if you want to avoid damaging or breaking it. It's best to use a comb whose teeth are wide-set and a brush with flexible, gentle bristles. If you begin at the top of your head, the tangles will accumulate as you go down, so always begin at the bottom.
Try to do most of your hair drying with a cotton towel before you use a heated blow dryer. It's very easy to damage your hair with the powerful heat a blow dryer puts out. It strips the hair shafts of the natural oils and moisture that it needs to look shiny and stay healthy. When you towel dry your hair it reduces the amount of heat that you have to use by blow drying.
You should always protect the hair from sun, like you do the skin. If you can't wear a hat, then use a hairspray that contains SPF protection. The hat will also protect your scalp, which might hurt. Also, if you hair is color-treated, they sun will make your color fade faster.
Anyone that would like to portray a certain type of presence can use specific hair care and styles to their advantage. Although you should always do what is comfortable for you, exploring different ways to change up your hair style is a great way to alter your appearance and change your mood. Keep everything you've read in mind so that you can make sure you take great care of your hair!
