Five Tips for Long, Strong And Beautiful Hair

By: William Briggs

If you've ever wanted long hair, there are some tips that
you should definitely keep in mind. I've been growing out
my hair for about three years, and in that time, I've
managed to get it from chin length to four inches below my
waist. Long, healthy hair is definitely attainable, but
depending on things like genetics and lifestyle, it might
take some encouragement. Check out the great tips below for
how to get long, gorgeous hair!

1.Wash only when you need to.

It's true. Hair will adjust to the number of times that you
wash it. If you wash your hair every day, it will get to a
point where your hair will feel greasy within in twenty-four
hours. Excessive washing, however, can strip your hair of
its natural oils. Try washing your hair every other day, or
even every three days. This will leave your hair looking
great and save you a bunch on shampoo!

2.Rinse with cold water

When you've finished washing your hair, give it a quick
rinse with cold water. This gets the microscopic scales on
your hair to seal down flat, making your hair look sleeker
and shinier.

3.Choose your comb wisely!

If you want gorgeous hair, get a wide-toothed wooden comb.
This helps redistribute the oil in your hair to the ends,
where it needs it the most. A wooden comb also won't tear
your hair the way a plastic brush will. Be extra careful
with your hair when it is wet, as it is more fragile.

4.Avoid hair dryers

Applying heat to your hair will damage it and over time,
you'll be more prone to split ends. Lightly rub your hair
with a towel and then let it air dry for the absolute best
results.

5.Trim regularly

It sounds a little nuts, but regular trims will help your
hair look great when it's getting long. I can always tell
when I need to trim my hair by how badly it tangles at the
end when I try to braid it. If the very ends of my hair
stick together, it's time to get a few inches whacked off!

6.Wear it up

Wearing your hair down can be hard on it if you do it every
day. When your hair is down, it'll get dirtier faster and
it will become more brittle, as well. Consider braiding it,
or pulling it up into a bun that's held in place with a
hairstick. My personal favorite trick is to deep condition
my braid, and then wrap it up in a bun. I can walk around
all day and then come home and rinse it out for healthy,
shiny hair.

7.Color with care

Most dyes are pretty bad for your hair, especially if you
use bleach beforehand. If you are looking for a new color,
see what henna can do. Henna is an all-natural, traditional
hair dye that will give you a gorgeous shade of red and give
your hair a lovely, shiny texture as well. Be warned,
though, henna is permanent, so be sure that you are willing
to live with the results!
