The Look Behind Trichology

Hair is your most important accessory. Why? You are unique, and a beautiful cut and style thats suited to your facial characteristics can be the simplest thing in the world to magically enhance your appearance more than anything you might ever wear. Its also something that can be changed often, even day to day, like a shirt.

But, after a while, all the processing that goes into it dyeing, brushing, blow-drying, highlighting, straightening, shampooing, gelling, heat from curling irons and so forth can take a toll.

Nobody wants to hit 30 and notice patchy gaps on their scalp. So, stop the abuse and start learning more about how to promote healthy and beautiful hair for life.

It may take a little extra effort to pay attention to healthy hair, but consider the rewards:

• Well-kept hair has more volume and shine, contributing to your natural beauty even when youre not wearing makeup.

• Hair is one of those parts of your body thats a barometer for overall good health. There are deeper reasons for hair loss; hormonal problems or pregnancy, for example, could be the reason. But if youre experiencing unusual hair loss, it should be taken seriously as a potential medical issue.

• Well-kept hair is often perceived as a sign of a person who is hygienic. When your hair is beautifully styled, treated and properly moisturized, you send out positive signals about yourself as a well-groomed, self-respecting person who takes care of themselves.

• Lush and beautiful hair can boost your self-esteem and confidence, which in itself will make you more attractive to others, in addition to the already physical enhancement to your looks.

• Good hair reflects higher status. Don't be surprised by how some people would spend a huge fortune on their hair. But continue on: Below, well provide you with some cheaper alternatives that will make you look like a million bucks for a fraction of the cost.

Taking care of your hair is a little like taking care of a houseplant. To thrive, a plant needs regular watering, trimming and removal of stray weeds. To keep it looking healthy, you need to dispose of leaves that fall when they die. A bit of care makes it a great addition to your living room dcor.

To thrive, your hair also needs applications of water (as you shampoo) and regular trimming to keep it looking its best and to ensure it suits your personal taste and the shape of your face. (And this holds true regardless if you're a woman or a man.)

Before we move on, lets address the obsession some people concerned about their hair have with pills/hair supplements (especially those claiming to be rich in biotin and collagen).

• Biotin helps your body regulate ordinary functions (including hair growth).

• Collagen may be especially beneficial to people who are in their thirties, since its around that age that our body starts producing less collagen, a process that unfortunately contributes to thinning hair and the beginnings of baldness.

Specialists tend to discourage relying too heavily on these supplements because:

• The beauty benefits of nutrients like biotin have not yet been proven.

• You cannot replace a bad diet with supplements because some features including a tendency to thinning hair are given to us naturally.

• A few supplements like Viviscal (a Scandinavian natural hair supplement), have been recommended. But dont put all your hopes on them.

• A better way to ensure great hair is to follow a diet rich in vitamins A and B, zinc and iron. (More will be covered on them later.)

Another popular product on the market for people experiencing hair loss is the FDA-approved Rogaine, also known as minoxidil. It comes in the form of a topical cream or foam and is used by both men and women experiencing a receding hairline or baldness, a condition known as androgenetic alopecia also known in men as male pattern baldness. If youre facing this condition, even with the use of Rogaine, growing back their hair will take a long time.

The product claims to show some results around 12 days after use. Although it appears to work for some people, there are drawbacks. For instance:

• To get results, it needs to be applied twice a day on the scalp. This procedure can be a hassle and could lead to the product not being used appropriately.

• It may give you unwanted facial hair. That could be a big Oops! for many women out there.

• It can get costly, with a price range of $28 to $30 per item.

Added to this is a scary list of potential side effects like chest pain, fever, chills, sore throat, fainting, and unusual bleeding.

So, unless you suffer from a very severe condition, and you are really desperate for good hair, ask yourself do the benefits outweigh the risks.

If you want to improve the appearance and health of your hair, why not favor natural alternatives, backed up by science.

With that said, lets begin our hacks for beautiful hair.

HACK #1:

Massage Scalp Daily

Massages, in general, are known to help facilitate blood flow in your body, and it benefits hair follicles and the hair itself. When you massage your hair, you are encouraging glowing and fast-growing hair.

On a cultural note, South Asian women, known for growing their hair to great lengths, often massage their hair with oils in order to encourage strong and shiny locks.

Heres how you proceed with a scalp massage:

1. First, decide if you want to massage your hair with no oil or with oil. Both are totally fine, but oils may assist in speeding hair growth, keeping it supple, improving circulation, or relieving an itchy scalp. Heres a list of ideal oils for scalp massaging:

- Peppermint oil, which will help improve blood circulation.

- Tea tree oil, which will help with an itchy and dry scalp.

- Almond and castor oil, which will help promote hair growth.

- And lastly coconut oil, which you can never go wrong with for anything.

2. Sit down in a calm room where you can take advantage of the soothing effect of the massage. Apply the oil of your choice, if you're using it, to the scalp with the tips of your fingers.

3. Start massaging at the front of your head, beginning at the sides. Use a circular motion, moving slowly from the sides to the center.

4. Continue massaging from the center of your head to the back of your head.

5. Repeat this pattern a total of five times, moving slowly from one spot to another.

6. When done, brush or comb your hair gently.

ASSIGNMENT : Try doing this tonight before going to bed, and in the morning before you start your daily routine. This way you will increase blood flow in your scalp and also promote growth and healthy hair. Dont forget to use your fingertips and opt for an oil if you wish to.
