8 Tips For Growing Long Hair
5. Avoid harsh chemicals/colors
You should also not go for coloring your hair as harmful chemicals may spoil your hair. But if you do want to color your hair then it’s advisable to use ammonia free or non-peroxide colors. Even if you use hair colors that have lesser peroxide, ultimately it will damage your hair and it will be much more difficult for you to manage your long hair in the future. So, avoid them as much as possible.
6. Don’t tie your hair tight
Tying your hair too tightly makes them stretch badly from the roots which could lead to hair loss and breakage. That is certainly not what you want if you wish to have long hair. It’s better not to have tight braids or coils for your hair.
7. Protect your hair from the sun
Everyone does go out into the sun, so it’s practically impossible to stay inside and protect your hair from the sun. What we mean is to use proper precaution before going out in the sun. Use a product that provides UV protection to your hair from the harmful sunrays. You could also wear a hat or a scarf.
8. Don’t use heating appliances/don’t brush too often
You should never use heating appliances such as flat irons or curling irons or rollers and don’t even blow dry your hair as any type of heat will cause damage to your hair. If you really want to blow dry, then do it for a very less time after your hair dries naturally. You must also remember the fact that your hair need not be brushed 10 times a day. Brushing them once or twice is enough or else it will lead to unnecessary breakage.
