Tips On Having Beautiful Hair

Hey, you may have noticed that this is my with day in a row bogging which is crazy I know! but what can I say? I just love bogging. This post about getting healthy hair, And here are my tips how :)


  • Foods full of protein. First of all lets ask ourselves, what is hair made of? Dead keratin (your nails are also made of of dead keratin) and protein. So if you have a diet without any protein in it then your hair isn't exactly going to turn out to look its best. So if your eating eggs, nuts, fish, beans and all this protein then that gives your body all the ingredients of healthy hair. And if you have excess protein, your body turns it into hair and nails and make them strong and healthy. You need to have healthy carbohydrates for protein and nutrients and have good fats like omega fatty acids and stuff but eating protein in that diet is amazing help to grow your hair out because protein is like all the ingredients of hair.
  • Wash your hair with cold water, hair has a cuticle and heat destroys that cuticle which is why heat styling your hair so so bad for it. So when your out of your shower or you've just washed your hair, you should always since your hair with cold water, because it does help to remove product out better but it also helps smooth out your cuticle. If your hair is damaged then your cuticle will have little flake coming off it, if you put cold water on it, it will smooth it out so its all sleek. and that helps to get rid of frizziness and helps it become more shiny looking and its just overall better for it.
  • OIL!! I cannot stress how important oil is for your hair! Their not really for your hair, its for your scalp. You see our hair is basically dead, it has no life like your nails. That's why we cut it it doesn't hurt. The reason we want a healthy scalp is because that's where our hair comes from. The oils basically stimulates your blood flow which make your scalp produce more healthier hair. You can use almost any kind of oil, like Peppermint oil, Coconut OilTea tree oilCinnamon oil, Lavender oil or even Olive oil (my personal favourite) All you do is damp your hair first (don't put ANYTHING in it otherwise it won't work) and just scrub the oil in the roots of your hair. It may itch afterwards for a while but try to avoid itching. After leaving it in for a few hours, wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner. Your hair will smell like the oil you used after washing your hair again to I recommend to do this at night or a day when your not going anywhere.
  • Sulphate free shampoo. Sulphates tend to strip your hair of its beautiful natural oils, So non sulphate shampoo are the great to clean your hair but also to give and preserve the nutrients on your hair. Sulphate free shampoos can tricky to track down as most shampoo companies use it eve high end ones, because sulphate is inexpensive, it gets the job done and it cleans more or less. But any sulphate free shampoo would do as they are better for your hair than your average shampoo containing sulphate.
  • I'm sure you all know that after you shampoo, you condition. Why? because you want your hair to be soft and smooth. Well instead of using a conditioner try using a Hair Mask. All you do with a hair mask is, you put it in your hair and you leave it in for 30 minuets and then you since it out, its best for you to do it once or twice a week depending of the curliness of your hair. But. What you can do instead is replace this with your conditioner. So after you wash your hair with the sulphate free shampoo you use the hair mask like you would use the conditioner so run it through your hair and rinse it away. Even thought the hair mask isn't staying on for 30 minuets, it is still more beneficial you your hair than a regular conditioner. I guess it gives your hair that extra boost it needs.
So those are my little tips on having healthy hair, please comment below if you have any other tips :) Love you all
