Hair Care is vital regime in our daily routine. It is because hair is a mirror of you inner health, which is why we desire a full head of hair and want those strands to shine with gusto. Most of us shampoo our hair too frequently; instead try just rinsing with water and massaging your scalp to distribute your naturally healthy lubricating oils into the hair.

When it comes to hair loss, there is more myth than science. It's hard to study, since there isn't a reliable method for measuring hair thickness. But foods that are good for your skin are also good for your hair. For instance, a diet rich in omega-3 fats and minerals, including zinc and silica is advised for hair care as well as skin care.

Losing up to 100 hairs per day from the scalp is normal. Hair is like money-worries us when it disappears. And somehow this gets associated with a person's identity. Hair loss is linked with loss of "self". Therefore the importance of hair care cannot be taken in a light manner. Hair goes through a constant cycle of growing and shedding, but if it falls out faster, a thinning pate is the result. Here are some tips to take care of your crowning glory.

Supplements of vitamin C and A are beneficial; so are minerals, particularly iron. Taking cod liver oil too can improve lusterless hair and help relieve a dry scalp.Sunscreen your hair by wearing a hat that protects your scalp.Massaging a teaspoon of castor oil into your scalp before shampooing stimulates hair growth. Warm coconut oil/mustard oil too restores sheen into lifeless locks.There are other options in hair care such as homeopathy and Ayurveda.These sure will rejuvenate hair and is effective in restoring health to chemically treated hair.Treat your hair with care. Comb gently and don't pull at tangles.

Use water soluble styling products. These too with too many synthetic ingredients clog follicles. To shampoo, use your fingertips to gently manipulate the scalp. Don't use too much pressure and don't be rough when you towel dry either. For women, consistently putting the hair in too tight ponytail kills follicles, so hair will recede more rapidly.

The above tips should be included as a part of daily routine. You cannot afford to overlook these tips because beautiful hair completes any appearance. Proper hair care will lead to healthier and better looking hair.
