Good hair care treatment can help prevent hair loss. Following a good hair care regime can help improve hair quality while adding volume and strength to dull, brittle or damaged hair.

Are you worried about losing your hair and believe that nothing can be done about your thinning hairline? Well, there is a lot that can be done to prevent hair loss as well as to add volume to your receding hairline.

Scalp Massage
Everybody is familiar with this advice that is as old as the hills, but has to be applied seriously and regularly in order to have the desired benefits. A good massage on your scalp can really work wonders for you. This is because it greatly stimulates your hair follicles as well as cleaning out sterile oil glands. This would be extremely beneficial for the health and growth of your hair, as well as resulting in a healthier scalp. Medical science has proved this fact, a healthy scalp in every aspect means stronger and healthier hair.

Hair wash
In order to prevent hair loss or to treat dull or falling hair, medical scientists have greatly advised proper hair care regime and most importantly the correct way to wash your hair. This includes the following steps:

- First of all, the most important thing required for proper hair washing is to choose the shampoo that suits your hair type, as well as your scalp condition. If you are suffering from severe hair loss, then choose a correct hair loss shampoo, either herbal or medicated. Using a good hair loss shampoo will effectively help remove the layers of oil accumulated in the hair and will greatly condition your hair. If you follow this technique, you will be sure to improve your hair condition, gradually but effectively.

- When washing your hair in the winter, you should always use lukewarm water, possibly using cold water to rinse the ends. This means that you must avoid using hot water on your hair.

- Another significant step is the avoidance of using large quantities of shampoo on your hair. Doctors have advised the usage of a twenty cent coin-size quantity of shampoo.

- When washing your hair, remember not to use your fingernails for scratching the scalp, use your fingers for gently massaging your scalp instead.

- It is also important to ensure that you rinse the shampoo off the hair completely so that no chemicals are left on the scalp, which can cause blockages of the pores and hair loss.

- It is advisable to apply conditioner only to the ends of your hair and never onto the scalp.

- Another significant point to be followed is that you should not use a hair dryer on the hair. Blow drying very often results in increased hair loss.

If you follow all of the above steps of hair treatment and hair care it can help to prevent any further hair loss, as well as adding volume, shine and strength to your dull or damaged hair.

Hair Coloring Tips - Home Hair Coloring Tips

Some hair professionals may try to discourage you from doing your own home hair color, saying that drugstore hair color products are harsh and the results can be uncertain. But the truth is that you can achieve excellent results and save a lot of money by coloring your hair at home as long as you know a few basics about choosing the right color and applying it correctly. The advantage of hair coloring is that a person can opt for a hair color that goes well with his or her looks and also according to the personal choice. Coloring the hair improves the confidence and looks of a person. Hair coloring gives an instant change to the person’s look. The changes can range from subtle, simple to the major and dramatic one. Hair color has an impact on the texture of the hair as it gives instant volume to fine and thin strands of hair and also affects the waves and curls in some cases.

Hair Color Mistakes

1. Applying dye to dirty, tangled hair.

2. Staining your skin or clothes.

3. Picking a color that does not fit with your natural hair color.

4. Dying eyebrows and eyelashes.

Hair coloring is not new to people as it has been carried out in the past too. Now there are various colors from blonde to blue made possible for both men and women. Hair dyes are made up of either bleaches or pigments or colors. The natural hair color of any person is due to the genetic or hereditary factors. Hair coloring can add fun, shine and drama to the hair style.

Permanent hair colors break the hair cuticle and deposit pigment in the hair shaft. Permanent color is said to lighten the hair as the hair is bleached and then the color is deposited in a single step process. Hair color is formed by the movement of the light rays either through absorption or reflection caused by artificial pigment which is added to the hair during the tinting process or by the natural pigment of hair. Permanent hair colors are used to cover gray hair to a large extent and it is also said to cause damage to the hair if they are used for a longer term and can even result in irreversible damage to the hair. Natural hair color is formed by the absorption or reflection of the light rays by the pigment called melanin. The amount, distribution and size of the melanin determine the hair color of the person.

Healthy Hair – Hair Coloring Tips

Shampoo that’s made for color treated hair keeps your hair color soft and natural looking. Regular shampoos can strip color and natural moisture from your hair.

Install a water filter for your shower or bath. Besides frequently being treated with chemicals, tap water coming through old plumbing contains undesirable elements like rust that leave your new hair color flat and dull looking.

Deep condition regularly – at least every two weeks – to restore moisture and shine to color treated hair. As roots grow out, a color enhancing conditioner will help your natural hair color blend with your color treated hair.

After shampooing, always blow your hair dry. Don’t rub hair dry or wrap it in a tight turban. When using a blow dryer, dry your head– not your hair. Over drying hair strips it of moisture and also results in static.

Caution while applying temporary dyes

Application of dye on chemically processed hair or the application of the wrong dye can result in odd colors. So it is usually recommended to choose a shade somewhat lighter than the natural shade of your hair.
