Black hair is one of the most common hair colors. Due to factors such as heat damage, extensive use of chemicals, premature aging of hair, and stress, black hair can lose its natural pigmentation and shine. When you have black hair, it is also easy to spot graying or white hairs, making you look older than your age. Let us learn about some hair care and maintenance tips for girls with natural black hair.
Oil Your Hair
You should oil your hair regularly. Choose Jojoba oil if you want to moisturize and condition your scalp and hair. Coconut oil will penetrate the hair shaft and nourish your hair, protecting it from hair damage and reducing hair loss. You can also add a few teaspoons of tea tree oil into your hair mask or conditioner to reduce hair loss, get rid of dandruff, and prevent split ends.
Be Gentle with Your Hair and Scalp
You should be gentle with your hair to prevent hair loss. Use the right brush suitable for your hair type, such as a bristle brush if you have curly hair or kinky hair. If you have wavy or straight hair, opt for a wide-toothed comb instead. Make sure to comb your hair when it is dry since combing your hair when it is wet can cause strands of hair to break easily.
You can also massage your scalp regularly to promote blood circulation. A healthy scalp will increase hair thickness and reduce breakage. After showering, you should pat your hair gently with a microfiber towel to dry it instead of vigorously rubbing your hair with a towel.
Use the Right Tools
Try to wash your hair regularly. You should also slowly massage shampoo onto your scalp and hair to remove dirt, oil build-up, and dust. Avoid shampoos that contain harsh chemicals such as parabens and sulfates. They can harm your scalp and hair, causing your hair to become brittle and damaged. Choose a sulfate-free shampoo like the Simply Stylin’ Peppermint Tea Tree Shampoo that’s specially formulated for all hair types. It will be gentle on your hair and scalp, preventing your hair from drying out. You should condition your hair every time you shampoo your hair to nourish and moisturize it.
Diet and Lifestyle Choices
A healthy diet full of vitamins, minerals, protein, and omega-3 will keep your hair strong and shiny, while a poor diet may lead to dull hair and hair loss. Stress is also a huge factor that results in increased hair fall. You can relieve your stress through meditation, yoga, and exercise to reduce hair loss.
