Sometimes it is affected by various factors that are very annoying and sometimes uncomfortable: Lack of shine and softness, dandruff, bad odor, dryness caused by chemicals and heat and sometimes fungi or infections can occur.
To prevent all these problems we can acquire habits that benefit the appearance of our hair:
- Wash your hair regularly with a shampoo that contains salicylic acid and sulfur : Salicylic acid can also be a good remedy for dandruff due to its keratolytic properties that promote cell renewal.
- Don't use conditioner on the roots: If you apply conditioner close to the scalp you can clog the follicles slowing growth and increase the levels of oil in the hair.
- Frequently change the towel with which you dry your hair and the pillowcase: Do it for hygiene because these humidity and sweat can make your hair smell bad.
- Eat a balanced diet and drink water regularly: What you are inside will always be reflected in your physical appearance and that will be the way you eat and hydrate.
- Change your brush often and don't brush your hair too much when you have dandruff: this will prevent the areas that are not yet affected from being infected.
- Choose the products you will use wisely: It is always more advisable to use natural products and avoid chemicals.
