Are you tired of your short crop and feel it is time to grow your hair out? Perhaps you have long hair already, but want to make sure that you’re taking good care of it, and giving it the nourishment it needs… Well, you’re in luck. Following these simple tips and tricks won’t only ensure your tresses grow longer and faster, they will also go a long way in helping you keep your tresses healthy and damage-free. We bring you some of our favorite tried-and-tested tricks:
1. Give yourself a regular head and scalp massage
Have you ever noticed how relaxed you feel after a long, luxurious massage? That’s because massaging any part of your body not only relaxes the area, it’s also a great way to improve circulation and increase the blood flow to that area. The same applies to your head and scalp. In fact, massaging your scalp every time you wash your hair is not only a convenient option, but it’s also the perfect way to calm yourself and start your day fresh. A weekly oil massage, with a few drops of an essential oil of your choice, will strengthen the hair follicle and stimulate hair growth.
2. Treat yourself to a hair spa in the comfort of your own home
Dry and damaged hair means unhealthy locks that will not grow the way you want them to. Treating your tresses to some much-needed nourishment will help restore the lost luster. The best solution is a restorative hair mask that you can quickly whip up with a few ingredients from your kitchen. In fact, treating your strands to a hair mask will not only strengthen them but will also restore moisture and prevent you from having to keep trimming off those split ends.
3. Choose the right products for your hair
When your goal is to grow your hair out and make sure it’s strong and healthy, understanding the ingredients in the products you use will definitely help keep your strands safe from damage. Often times, your favorite hair-care products might just contain harmful ingredients that not only dry out your strands but make them brittle and susceptible to breakage and damage. You should choose products that contain natural ingredients, and are free of parabens, sulfates, silicone, and alcohol. We recommend you read that label properly!
