We love our tresses and love styling them even more! But with shampoo, pollution, heat from straightening and curling irons, hair gets damaged. Whatever the reason, we all crave for healthy, soft and manageable hair. Oiling and shampooing hair is important, and so is using conditioners and hair serums.
Making sure your hair is as healthy as possible is about more than just which shampoo you use. A multitude of different factors affect how sleek, shiny, and strong your hair is. Sure, some of it’s natural—you have to work with the locks you were born with—but a lot of it has to do with how well you care for those locks. From swapping shampoos every once in a while to scheduling regular hair cuts, here are the biggest hair care mistakes to avoid, myths to ignore, and healthy habits to start right now for your healthiest hair ever.
Hair serums help to boost your hair towards a natural and healthy life. Store-bought hair serums are tiny bottles that could cause holes in your pockets! That’s where homemade hair serums come into the picture. They are natural, homemade and cost-efficient and can solve all your hair problems!
