How to maintain hair care

Wash hair that is oily more often. The amount of oil your scalp produces should determine how frequently you wash your hair.


You might need to cleanse your scalp once a day if it is oily.
You might want to wash your hair less regularly if you have chemically treated hair because it might be drier.

You might not need to shampoo as frequently as you think as your scalp produces less oil as you age. However, you might not be shampooing your hair enough if you notice flakes in it. Dandruff and other scalp conditions may result from this.
Apply shampoo directly to the scalp. Washing the full length of your hair is not necessary; instead, focus on cleaning the scalp. 

Washing your hair alone can result in dull, coarse flyaway hair.


Unless you use a "2-in-1" shampoo that simultaneously cleans and conditions hair, use conditioner after every shampoo. Applying a conditioner can greatly enhance the appearance of damaged or weathered hair by boosting radiance, reducing static electricity, enhancing strength, and providing some UV protection.


Apply conditioner mostly on the ends of your hair. Conditioners should only be used to the tips of fine hair; they should not be used on the scalp or the length of the hair because they might make fine hair appear limp.

Select shampoo and conditioner that are made especially for the type of hair you have. Use a shampoo made specifically for color-treated hair, for instance, if you color your hair. 

Think about using a "2-in-1" shampoo if your hair has been chemically treated or is damaged. Many brands of shampoo and conditioner offer the same advantages, regardless of price.


When swimming, shield your hair. Wet and condition your hair before swimming to shield it from the damaging effects of chlorine. Put on a form-fitting swim hat and replenish moisture lost in your hair after swimming by using a deep conditioner and shampoo designed specifically for swimmers.
