Hey, ladies. Just want to give you some quick tips to achieving the best and healthiest hair possible.
First you should know that any chemical processing you do to your hair, such as dyes and perms, will damage it. No, this doesn’t mean you can’t have great hair if you do process it, it just means you have to take extra care of it. But, if you do multiple processes, like coloring and chemically straitening, or dye your hair very often, it will most likely get a very dry, straw-like texture. So don’t over do it. And know that bleaching and highlighting your hair does the most damage.
Washing your hair too much can actually dry it out. So it’s best to not wash it everyday. Do at most every other day, or you can even space it out longer than that. Some people have really healthy hair and only wash it once or twice a week. Now, by washing I mean shampooing. You can condition or just rinse your hair everyday. But you must understand your hair type. If you have dry or processed hair, you should condition every other day and definitely every time you wash. For those of you with thin or oily hair, condition only when you wash, and you can even skip it some or a lot of the time, depending on how oily it gets. If your hair is thin, but not oily, too much conditioner can make it appear oily, so beware. For normal hair, you should just condition every time you wash, or if you think your hair feels a little dryer than it should.
Also, take into consideration the kind of activities you are doing. You should always wash your hair after going into the pool or swimming in salt water. If you were sweating a lot, like during sports, it may be a good idea to wash away that access sweat. Though if you plan on getting all sweaty the following day, you could just rinse with some water.
Those of you with frizzy, processed, dry or very thick hair, it is a good idea to use leave-in conditioner. This weighs the hair down to tame wild fly-aways, and moisturizes it. But again, you must feel out your hair type. If you overdo it you can give your hair a greasy look.
Stay tuned for Part 2 when I'll talk about Hair Products!
Be good to your hair, and you will see what a difference it makes!

ooo my mom makes me wash my hair everyday because she says my hair is oily! OOH so now i can prove to her that it damages your hair some and makes it dry :)
Wow, thanks so much! Believe it or not, you have given a very thourough and clear information. More than those I've asked in an online magazine before (to an expert).
My mom taught my siblings and me that it is not good to wash your hair everyday but it is every other day. If you wash it everyday, it could dry out your hair or natural oils ... something like that. Heh! :D
I wash my hair everyday so I don't need those tips.I guess I have a tip too.

Actuly, my hair is very dry and I wash it once a month and it's fine! My hair is really curly, so I flat-iron it every time I wash my hair, so it stays loosely wavy until I wash it again. The other thing is I don't shampoo it. I use a paste made of inda(n) leaves, leaving it in my hair for 2 hours or so, then In rinse it, and condition it. I don't use shampoo because it irritates my hair. It's kinda cool, and my hair is always soft and shiny, and elastic.
i also have another tip (i'm ot sure if it's true, but i think it is). you should rinse your hair with water before getting into the pool. it will soak up less chlorine if it's already wet.
wait....so if u have thin hair your not supposed to condition it everytime you wash your hair?? I wash mine every 3 days and its not very oily....can someone explain?
Neat tip:]- Amal*F
Hi Veronica. You were wondering why you dont get as many people on your blog as Betty and I bet I know why. When you talk about hair and beauty and stuff theboys will not go to your blog. They really dont care how to give their hair a perfect shine or anything like that.
The faux duo is nowhere near as good as u n Betty, Ron! Here's a poem 2 help u remember that:
Very pretty
Egotistic-a little bit but confidence is a good thing:]
