4. Use gentle, natural hair care
Avoid harsh shampoos containing sulfates or silicones , which dry out the scalp. Choose natural hair products rich in plants, oils, and botanical extracts.
Rinse your hair with warm or cool water to close the cuticles and add natural shine . A splash of apple cider vinegar at the end of the rinse balances the pH of the scalp.
5. Avoid excessive heat
Hair dryers and heating appliances (straighteners, curling irons, etc.) damage the hair cuticle. Air-dry your hair and use natural heat protection products (aloe vera gel, hydrosols) if necessary.
6. Brush your hair gently
Use a natural bristle brush suited to your hair texture. Start at the ends and work your way up. Avoid brushing wet hair; it's more fragile. Brush in the evening to stimulate circulation.
7. Trim your ends regularly
A trim every 6 to 8 weeks helps eliminate split ends and promotes more even growth . This also limits breakage along the lengths.
8. Actively manage your stress
Chronic stress can disrupt your hormonal system and trigger hair loss. Incorporate practices like deep breathing , mindful walking , meditation , or yoga into your routine.
9. Protect your hair from external aggressions
Sun, wind, and pollution can damage hair keratin. Wear a hat if exposed to the sun for long periods, rinse your hair with clean water after swimming, and use protective treatments made with light plant oils .
10. Take vegetable oil baths
Vegetable oils are truly revitalizing treatments. Apply them as a mask before shampooing and leave on for 1 hour or overnight:
-
Castor oil : promotes growth
-
Coconut oil : nourishes and protects
-
Sweet almond oil : softens fine hair
-
Argan oil : repairs dry hair
Massage the scalp well to activate microcirculation , then wash with a mild shampoo.
11. Sleep on a silk pillowcase
Replacing your cotton pillowcase with a silk one can make a real difference. Naturally smooth, silk reduces friction during the night, limiting breakage, frizz, and tangles in the morning. It also preserves the hair's natural moisture . A simple step for softer hair in the morning.
