Hair Care Routine After Straightening
When hair undergoes straightening, whether through chemical treatments or heat styling, it becomes essential to care for it properly to maintain the straightened results and the beauty of the hair. Here are some simple and effective steps to ensure your hair remains shiny and healthy.
1. Moisturizing:
Your straightened hair requires extra moisture due to the chemicals used. Use moisturizing hair masks or massage your scalp with natural oils like coconut oil to hydrate your hair and scalp.
2. Switching Shampoo:
Use a shampoo specifically designed for chemically treated hair that is free of sulfates and parabens. This helps avoid the buildup of chemicals on your hair and scalp.
3. Protecting Hair from Heat:
If using heat styling tools, apply a heat protectant spray. This spray helps minimize the impact of heat and protects the hair from damage.
4. Reducing Wash Frequency:
Washing your hair less frequently helps maintain the straightening. Frequent washing opens the hair cuticles and dries it out, increasing the chances of it becoming frizzy.
5. Regular Trimming:
Regularly trimming the ends helps prevent split ends, especially after straightening. Trim your hair regularly to keep it looking healthy.
6. Covering Hair:
Protect your hair outdoors from sun and dirt by covering it with a scarf or wearing a hat. This reduces the impact of environmental factors on your hair.
7. Hair Spa:
Regularly treat your hair to a hair spa. Use rich moisturizing masks to restore your hair’s vitality and strength.
8. Avoiding Forceful Detangling:
Avoid forcefully detangling your hair. Use a wide-tooth comb and be gentle to prevent hair breakage.
9. Healthy Diet:
A healthy diet greatly impacts hair health. Eat foods rich in vitamins and proteins to enhance hair health.
10. Avoid Washing Immediately After Straightening:
Refrain from washing your hair for at least three days after straightening sessions to maintain the straightening effect.
11. Wrapping Hair During Sleep:
Wrap your hair with a silk or satin scarf while sleeping to maintain your hairstyle.
