Secrets on Taking Care of Long Hair

Knowing secrets on taking care of long hair can help you maintain a healthy head of hair and the advice can help you grow hair longer. The first step is to determine your hair type in order to select the secrets for long hair that work for you. Different types have different needs.

Weak and Brittle Hair Products

Weak and brittle hair care products can help promote growth while protecting the follicles. However, it also helps to keep hair clean and healthy without using too many styling products that can dry hair. Dry hair can become extra brittle, leading to damage and breakage.

The following secrets on taking care of long hair are for weak and brittle locks:

    * Don't wash every day. Allow the natural oils on the scalp to condition the hair naturally. Too much washing can make hair dry.
    * Keep styling to a minimum. This means combing and brushing as little as possible in order to keep hair strong.
    * Use styling products that add moisture and avoid ones that use alcohol.
    * Dry hair on a cool setting when using a hair dryer.
    * Do not use traditional metal curling irons or flat irons on weak and brittle hair.

Thick or Black Hair

Thick, coarse hair can be challenging to keep long. The best approach to protecting this type of hair is to wear it up in a "protective do" whenever you can. Hairstyles that protect the follicles typically hide the ends. Consider some of the following styles:

    * Classic bun
    * Twists
    * Head wraps
    * Scarves
    * Hats
    * Any style that prevents hair from rubbing against clothes

It isn't advisable to wear hair up constantly, or when it is soaking wet, but the styles can prevent breakage when you are going to be active.
Long Hair Tips

Tips on taking care of long hair include some basics that are simple to achieve. Use a comb to brush conditioner through your hair before rinsing. This helps the hair absorb all of the moisture evenly.

If in time you find that long hair isn't for you, keep in mind that it is a great option to donate the hair to a worthy cause like Locks for Love rather than simply cutting it off.
