Things You Need to Stop Doing to Your Hair Every Day

4. Manhandling Wet Hair
 Your strands are at their most delicate when wet and are more
prone to breakage.
 Brushing your locks and aggressive towel-drying after a shower
can really wreak havoc on them and will definitely lead to hair
shedding.
Save Your Hair
 Use a wide-tooth comb to de-tangle your freshly washed mane
and not a brush.
 Start from the ends and work your way up.
 Use your towel to gently blot or dab instead of forcefully rubbing
your poor strands.

5. Scratching That Itch
 It’s tempting to scratch an itchy scalp, but all that itching can
seriously damage your hair cuticles and follicles, especially if
you have long nails.
 It’s smart to keep those talons away from your scalp.
Save Your Hair
 Itchiness can happen when you’ve skipped a hair wash and
simply need to cleanse your scalp.
 If it’s dandruff you’re dealing with, then use a good shampoo
with zinc pyrithione, like Head & Shoulders, or tea-tree oil.

6. Bad Brushing Habits
 Tearing through your hair with a brush, especially when you’re in
a hurry, can damage your locks and pull them out by the roots or
break mid-length.
 Another hair mistake is using a dirty brush. Sweat, oil and all
your styling products can collect on your brush, so it’s important
to clean it as well as remove the strands of hair stuck in the
bristles.
Save Your Hair
 Be extra gentle when running a brush through your hair and stay
clear of over-brushing, which can cause breakage.
 Also, don’t forget to clean your brushes with shampoo once a
month!

7. Using Too Much Heat
 If you’re someone who constantly uses blow dryers or irons to style
her mane, then you could be causing permanent damage to your hair.
 Too much heat can dry out your tresses and leave them brittle and
weak.
Save Your Hair
 Take a break from plugging in your heat tools every now and then.
 Skip a blow dry sometimes and embrace your natural waves instead.
 Also, try lowering the heat settings on your appliance.

8. Washing Your Hair Daily
 Yes, we all love that fresh feeling after a hair wash, but
shampooing your mane every day is actually causing
more damage than you know.
 Over-washing strips your strands of moisture, leaving
them dry and undernourished.
Save Your Hair
 Washing your hair every other day is the best way to
keep your locks clean and healthy.
 If you have oily hair, then it’s time you made dry
shampoo your best friend.

9. Spending Time In The Sun
 Just like our skin, our hair is prone to sun damage as
well.
 Our locks are the most exposed to the UV-rays,
which weaken and cause breakage of our precious
strands.
Save Your Hair
 It’s important to sun-proof your mane.
 Wear a hat on a day when you’ll be soaking up the
sun and look out for hair products with UV
protection.

10. Pulling It Back Too Tight
 If you prefer keeping your hair pulled back and off
your face with a tight ponytail, bun or braid, you could
actually be weakening your strands.
 Your favourite hairstyle can cause extra tension at the
roots, aside from giving a headache! Very tight elastics
and hair-ties are also a bad idea.
Save Your Hair
 Let your hair hang loose sometimes.
 And if you really must pull it back, make sure to tie it
in a loose, more relaxed style.

11. Crash Dieting
 You may be trying to lose weight, but starving yourself can
make you lose hair as well.
 Hair is primarily made of protein, so a diet that cuts back on
it will definitely affect your locks since you’re not getting
enough of it.
 Weak and dull hair can be a result of too many crash diets.
Save Your Hair
 A well-balanced diet is essential for your overall health as
well as for your hair. Proteins, zinc and iron are important
for strong, healthy and shiny hair.

12. Delaying That Trim
 We all know that split ends are a bad sign.
 And skipping those regular trims can cause those damaged
ends to split further and up the length of the strands, which
leads to breakage and thinning.
Save Your Hair
 Book yourself for a trim every other month to get rid of
those dry, damaged ends.
 Even if you’re trying to grow out your locks, those dead
ends aren’t going to add to your length.
 So make sure to get them snipped off.
