Hair Myths Debunked

3. "Confidence is a habit that can be developed by
acting as if you already had the confidence you
desire to have”
Enhance

4. Myth 1# Chopping your hair off will make it grow faster
 Regular trims are a must.
 It does away with split ends and leaves your mane
healthy. However, it does not affect the growth of it.
 On a monthly average, hair grows half an inch
regardless of whether you trim it or not.
 The trim just makes your hair appear neat and fuller.
 If you want the perfect mane, you’ve got to maintain
it.
 For that to happen, you will have to visit the salon
every eight to twelve weeks.

5. Myth 2# If you pluck one strand of grey hair, two more will grow in it’s place
 We’re sure everyone has heard of this one from some relative or
the other.
 Truth is, that’s not the case at all! The act of plucking will only
make your scalp and hair weaker.
 Plucking out any type of hair and colour will force the hair
follicle to reproduce more hair.
 That’s why we suggest you to embrace your age and put an end
to damaging your hair.

6. Myth 3# The more often you brush your hair, the healthier it will become.
 Heard of that popular phrase, “too much of anything is
bad for you”?
 Your hair is no exception here either. While you want
your hair to be free from those troublesome knots,
sometimes the act can do more harm than good.
 Over brushing your gorgeous locks can damage your
hair cuticles causing strands to fall out. So, the next
time you pick up that brush, think twice!

7. Myth 4# Always comb wet hair from top to bottom.
 When hair is wet, it’s in its weakest form but it’s very
important to detangle hair when it’s wet.
 Here a bit of advice, never use any comb on your hair except
a wide-toothed comb, and, always start brushing from the
bottom and not the top.
 Starting from the bottom will be less stressful on your
strands and will prevent it from any further damage.
 Haphazardly running a comb from top to bottom will result
in extra hair loss and damage.

8. Myth 5# Using the right hair products enables your hair to grow thicker.
 You’d be shocked to know this, but more than
hair products, food is responsible for thicker and
healthier hair.
 Since it takes your body a lot of energy to grow
hair, it requires nutrients.
 Apparently, food happens to be the richest source
of them all. Healthy food makes sure that your
roots get enough of nutrients, minerals and
vitamins to keep it going.
 So, if you’re blessed with thick hair, it’s not hair
products you need to give credit to, it’s actually
your diet!

9. Myth 6# Dandruff signifies a dry scalp
 Dryness is not what causes dandruff, it’s actually an
oily scalp.
 Dandruff usually happens by a type of yeast that
overgrows in an oily environment. It’s your body’s way
of tackling it.
 Avoid washing your hair daily to prevent the scalp from
losing its natural oil.
 Also, if dandruff is an issue, make the best use of anti
dandruff shampoo.

10. Myth 7# You should towel dry your hair
 Most women make this mistake. Once they’re out of the
shower, they immediately pull out a towel and rub their
hair dry vigorously.
 For your information, towel drying is rough on your
hair, causes breakage and ruins its texture as well as
causes frizziness thanks to all that friction.
 The next time you wash your hair, make sure that you
gently pat your hair against the towel, and use a wide-
tooth brush to remove excess water.

11. Myth 8# Going out with wet hair makes you fall sick
 We’re sure you probably heard this from your parents a
zillion number of times.
 Fortunately, wet hair has nothing to do with it, infact,
germs and bacteria in the air do.
 You catch a cold when you’re hair is dry as well thanks
to airborne diseases.
