Who doesn’t want to be noticed and look beautiful? Everyone wants to look best. And when it comes to looks, hair plays a vital role too. Healthy, soft, shiny hair is an instant booster to your overall appearance. And if you are the proud owner of a gorgeous crowning glory then go ahead and flaunt it! Make other jealous of you. It is surprising how many treat their hair with disrespect. They don’t give it the care needed and use harmful synthetic products. Result: hair fall, dandruff, frizzy hair etc. and then they wonder why their hair is not shiny, flowing and sexy like in the ads inspite of using the same shampoo or conditioner! Well they need to understand some facts of hair care. Hair is a delicate, growing organ (it’s infact a modified type of skin) in need of lots of care.

Even a simple basic routine of oil massage-shampooing-conditioning is enough. All you need is to use the right kind of product. Remember, hair needs to be treated carefully with a lot of attention towards proper nutrition to maintain a healthy growth. Instead of the synthetic hair oils from the market, use oils from your kitchen cupboard. Using warm olive oil, castor oil, almond oil, etc will do wonders to your hair. When infused with herbs like camphor (Kapoor), Hibiscus, mint, Shikakai, essential oils like lavender, jasmine, etc. it nourishes the hair to the roots and imparts softness, resiliency, luster and vibrancy to the hair.

A nice warm head massage is to be followed up by wrapping the hair in a warm towel for 20-30 minutes and then wash off using a herbal shampoo and finish off with a herbal conditioner. To add that final touch, use apple cider vinegar as the final rinse for your hair. Once dry, style as you want.

A complete range of hair care aromatherapy and Ayurveda products are available to choose from. They are a safe choice as they have no side effects. Many of the ingredients used in them are available in the market for you to buy and make your own herbal hair care product which will be 100% chemical free especially as no preservatives are added in.

But before you go in for any of the natural products, you should know your hair type, color, texture, quality so accordingly you can choose the right kind of products and improve on it. Proper care will give you healthier and better looking hair but when ignored it will lead to hair loss, breakage, split ends, dull hair.

Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Treat your hair like a baby. Pamper it, nourish it. Give it the right nutrition, not only exte
ally but internally too. Eat the right kind of diet that provides the essential vitamins and protein. Include atleast two kinds of nuts in your daily diet. Deep conditioning once a month is essential to maintain the softness and provide nourishment to the hair. If you suffer from dandruff, use a good quality anti-dandruff shampoo twice a week only. Make sure the shampoo suits your hair.

By following simple steps of massage-shampoo-conditioning combined with balanced, nutritious diet, you will have lustrous, strong, beautiful hair to flaunt as you want and leave other gasping over your crowning glory.
