How do girls maintain healthy hair?

To be honest, I have been tinkering with my hair for five or six years. I went from perming and dyeing my hair twice a year to now keeping my hair down to my waist and ends without split ends. The core is actually to focus on the three cores of "prioritizing scalp health, reducing physical and chemical damage, and adjusting to the rhythm of the body." There is no need to stock up on a bunch of ladies' shampoos that often cost hundreds of dollars and pay the IQ tax.

Two years ago, I accompanied my oily best friend to the dermatology department to see her hair loss. At that time, she always heard people say that washing her hair every day would damage her hair. Even if it was oily and frizzy the night before, she would still wash it every two or three days. The doctor said that the barrier of her scalp was damaged. You must know that the thickness of the scalp is only 1/2 of the skin on the face and forehead, and its durability is far less than that of the face. Excessive oil production and blocking of hair follicles, violent cleaning, and pulling force are all the culprits of scalp damage. At this point, some people must ask how often you should wash your hair. In fact, there is no unified conclusion in the industry on this issue. If you have dry skin and your hair is not oily, washing it every three or four days is absolutely fine. Oily skin tends to sweat and produce a lot of oil in the summer. There is nothing wrong with using a mild amino acid shampoo to cleanse it every day. It is better than oil clogging the hair follicles and inducing inflammation.

The biggest pitfall I have encountered before is that I always perm and dye my hair. At the most exaggerated time, I bleached and dyed my hair three times and four times a year. The ends of my hair felt like dried steel wool balls and broke when I pulled them. Later, he gritted his teeth and cut off his shoulder-length hair and maintained it. Now he perms it at most once a year. When he dyes his hair, Tony also leaves two centimeters of hair roots untouched to minimize the chance of the dye coming into contact with his scalp. I have also changed my bad habit of blow-drying my hair. I no longer turn on the hottest setting and blow-dry my hair at the ends for a long time. Now I blow-dry my hair with warm air until it is 80% dry. Once the ends are slightly dry, I apply some hair care essential oil containing silicone oil or jojoba oil and let it dry naturally. Last time I went to get my hair cut, Tony asked me if I hadn’t had a perm or dyeing in half a year. My hair felt very soft and smooth.

Oh, by the way, there are still many people clamoring that anti-hair loss essences are IQ taxes. This really depends on the situation. Last year, I stayed up late for ten consecutive days working on a project, and every time I combed my hair, I lost half a handful. Later, I added a bottle of caffeine essence from a regular brand. After washing my hair every day, I wiped it half dry and massaged it on my scalp for two minutes. Within half a month of adjusting my work schedule, my hair loss was reduced a lot. ； But my cousin suffers from hereditary androgenetic alopecia. After using various Internet celebrity anti-hair loss essences for more than half a year, they all failed. Finally, she went to the hospital and was prescribed minoxidil liniment. It took her less than half a year to slowly grow small fuzz. If the hair loss is so severe that the hair seams become wider, don’t buy Internet celebrity products blindly. It is most reliable to go to a dermatology department to do a hair follicle test first.

There are many small details in daily life that can reduce damage to the hair. For example, my sister spent a whole day wearing a tight high bun on the top of her head for a photo shoot. She lost nearly fifty hairs when it was removed. She was so distressed that she didn't even eat dinner. Now she uses thick telephone wire hair ties to tie her hair as loosely as possible without pulling the scalp. When combing her hair, she uses a wide-tooth comb to comb through the ends first and then from top to bottom, so that the knotted areas are not pulled hard and there is a lot less breakage. Some people say that eating black sesame seeds and black beans can make hair black. I have been eating it for almost a year and have not blackened the few white hairs I have. However, these grains contain a lot of protein and trace elements. Eating them can indeed add some nutrients to the hair. It is better than eating high-sugar and high-oil takeaways every day. After all, hair is also a part of the body. If you are good to your body, it will naturally give you feedback.
