7 amazing ways to maintain your hair


Is excessive hair loss bothering you? Try these 7 simple tips to keep your hair from falling.

Your hair is your crowning glory. It should be shiny and thick, and bouncy with health. But some people suffer from excessive hair fall. The harsh climatic conditions also dry out the hair and make it vulnerable to breakage. Many people are even forced to look for good hair loss treatments in Dubai.

A little care and these 7 tips go a long way in maintaining your hair’s beauty:

1. Stop hair loss. It is normal to lose up to 50 strands of hair a day. The scalp constantly sheds old hair to make way for new growth. You could also lose hair through brisk brushing. However, if you have excessive hair loss, you must ask your dermatologist for a good hair loss treatment in Dubai.

2. Promote hair growth with the right diet. What you eat has an impact on your hair and skin health. Eating fruit, nuts and seasonal vegetables, and also drinking a lot of water, supplies essential nutrients to your hair for it to grow shinier, healthier and thicker. Healthy hair is less prone to breakage and falling.

3. Get enough sleep. Stress and overwork can agitate the scalp and cause hair loss. The best antidote to stressed out hair is sleep. Switch off your electronic gadgets at least one hour before bed, have a warm glass of milk, wear an eye mask, and sleep for at least seven hours a night. You will notice the difference in your hair with regular, good quality sleep.

4. Exercise every day. Nothing beats exercise when it comes to multiple benefits for the body and mind. Daily exercise improves skin and hair health, because it promotes blood oxygenation and better circulation. It also aids toxin removal through sweat and excretion, so all the impurities that abet hair loss are expelled from the body.

5. Wash your hair not more than thrice a week. While not washing the hair can cause dirt and dried sweat to sit on the scalp and cause hair loss, washing it too often can also cause hair loss. Overuse of shampoo and conditioner weakens the hair roots and makes the hair leave the scalp. Make it a point to wash and condition your scalp not more than thrice a week. Do not brush when the hair is wet, let it air dry first.

6. Understand your hair type before using products. Each person’s hair is different, so the products that suit one person may not suit another. The shampoos and serums that suit curly hair may not suit straight hair, for instance. Let your dermatologist recommend a good hair care product for you after examining its ingredients and recommended usage.


7. Massage your scalp. Most hair loss happens because the scalp is poorly moisturised, or has low blood circulation. This results in weak hair roots and falling hair. Stimulate your scalp with a warm olive oil massage. Use firm fingers to work the oil into the scalp for at least 10 minutes. Cover your head with a hot towel so that the pores open up and the oil is absorbed better.
