Kind Care for Your Fair Hair

Kind Care for Your Fair Hair

5 Important Kind Care Tips

1. Pay  close attention to labels on hair products you may have used in the past. I suggest an Online Foray to EPA and NIH sites.Just one example: Researchers at the National Institutes of Health have found a correlation between an ingredient found in shampoos and nervous system damage an ingredient called methylisothiazoline, or MIT, causes neurological damage. Gels, mousse, shampoos and hair sprays may contain some very damaging ingredients. SELECT nature-based hair care products.

2. Pick a couple different moisturizing shampoos specifically designed for tender hair. (check the label for potentially nasty ingredients) Alternate shampoos. Possibly wash your hair every other day.

3. Before shampooing massage a bit of natural oil into your scalp. This can relax you and your scalp.

4. After shampooing, use a nice moisturizing conditioner. Check the label for potentially toxic ingredients. This can do a lot for keeping your hair from getting dry and frizzy.

5. The type of TLC you provide for your fair hair depends on if you have dry, normal or oily hair. But, more than this.it may depend on Your  Kind Attitude Toward Your Self!
