Care for your crowning glory

- Ave you ever envied the hair of celebritie­s? Their hair always looks so lustrous and healthy. This is not impossible if you follow good general hair care tips. Here are some simple tips from 101 Hair Care:

1. Choose wisely

Invest in the best hair care products and tools you can afford. always remember to read the label. Using the wrong products may lead to itchy scalp or dandruff.

2. Washing right

avoid scratching your scalp when washing your hair. a gentle scalp massage gets rid of sebum secretion to prevent blockage at the follicles and improves blood circulatio­n. Remember to rinse off shampoo completely to prevent build-up.

3. Dry it your way

Towel-dry your hair. Regular blow-drying can singe the hair cuticle, causing it to be brittle. However, if you are in a rush, use low heat and do not place the hair dryer close to the scalp.

4. Brush smartly

Brush your hair with a soft, wide tooth wooden brush. Most wet hair is quite fragile, so avoid brushing or combing your hair when it is still wet. If necessary, comb your hair starting from the tip. Hold the middle part to reduce hair-pulling friction.

5. Balanced diet

a balanced diet means having a variety of food in a moderate amount. vegetables are a must in a meal because it contains fibre that assists digestion and also lots of vitamins and minerals.

It is recommende­d to drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Frequent consumptio­n of caffein- ated drinks is not recommende­d because caffeine has a diuretic effect and will reduce the absorption of nutrients in our guts.

Try minimising food high in saturated fat, trans fat, cholestero­l, salt, refined sugar and alcohol.

6. Healthy lifestyle

Whenever you are bored or stressed, spend some time doing something that interests you or take the opportunit­y to learn new skills. exercising not only helps to reduce stress but also increase your HDL (high-density lipoprotei­n) level. Try spending at least 30minutes per time exercising on alternate days.
