Everything You Need To Know About Keratin Treatment

Everything You Need To Know About Keratin Treatment

The secret to many people’s coveted smooth, shiny hair turns out to be a keratin treatment. Keratin is the protein that strengthens your hair, controls the frizz and prevents damage. Needless to say, it is very important for maintaining healthy hair. However, the salon keratin treatment that promises straight and silky hair poses some major concerns. The de-frizzing process is quite popular as an easy fix but does it really help your hair? Let’s dive into the details of keratin treatment.   What is Keratin Treatment? Keratin treatment is a chemical process that promotes smoothness and shine for frizzy hair. The treatment can last up to four to six months. Your hairstylist creates the blend for you depending on your hair type. There are different versions of keratin treatment - Brazilian Blowout, Goldwell, Kerasilk and Cezanne. Some of these versions release formaldehyde when heated. It is colourless, strong-smelling gas that is used in glue and so on. During keratin treatments, formaldehyde is responsible for locking the hair into a straight position for months. It is risky for you and also your hairstylists. Exposure to formaldehyde can cause sore throat, scratchy eyes and nose bleed. In fact, long exposure to it can even increase the risk of cancer. PROS & CONS OF KERATIN TREATMENT PROS CONS Smooth & Shiny hair Formaldehyde toxicity Easier daily care Cost can be high Long-lasting results Difficult to maintain If you ignore the effects of formaldehyde, keratin treatment dives into your hair follicle and affects porous areas with keratin, making them appear healthier and at that moment, your hair are actually healthy due to the protein dose given to it.  The Process of Keratin Treatment It takes from two to four hours to complete a keratin treatment depending on your hair texture and volume. Firstly, your hairstylist washes your hair. Then, keratin treatment will be applied to your wet hair and the formula will be saturated on each strand in about half an hour. At times, hairstylist could blow-dry your hair first and then apply the treatment depending on what your hair needs. Later the treatment is sealed using a flat iron. Keratin Treatment For Curly Hair As gorgeous as curly hair may look, for some people, curly hair is challenging to maintain and style in general. Hence, they move on to a straighter look. Usually, keratin treatment is where it all starts. It doesn’t really remove the curls permanently but controls the frizz for a few months. Keratin Treatment For Hair Loss Recovery The more you treat your hair with chemicals, the more hair loss and hair breakage you’ll observe. This condition is not visible right from the treatment but you can see it once the treatment wears off. This also includes keratin treatment. The issue here is not keratin but the other ingredients and chemicals. Keratin is always good for your hair. It is what makes your hair stronger. But, in the case of hair loss, you must avoid the treatment and try to produce keratin naturally in your body by following a healthy lifestyle and a healthy diet. Take a protein-rich diet, consume enough biotin, B vitamins, vitamin C and E, zinc and antioxidants to promote overall health of your hair instead of going to salon to get another treatment. The chemicals and the heat will only damage your hair further.   Can You Do Keratin Treatment At Home? Yes, you can. However, don’t expect salon-type results. You will first have to buy the right product as many hair products in the market are keratin-based but not all of them can be used as keratin treatment. You need to check the ingredients list and then the instructions. If the product has detailed instructions on how to wash, dry and straighten hair, it might be the keratin treatment but otherwise, it may just be a regular conditioning product. Even when you buy the right keratin treatment, the results won’t be as shiny as that of a salon. While a salon treatment may last for several months, at-home version will only stick for a few weeks if maintained properly. Side Effects of Keratin Treatment  Undoubtedly, keratin is a natural protein that’s most important for your skin, hair and nails as it forms fibres to make them strong. However, keratin in beauty treatments is usually taken from animal parts. It is a natural protein but the formula is made of several other ingredients including chemicals. We’ve already spoken about one of the chemicals, formaldehyde, a carcinogen, that helps cancer grow. It takes a lot of heat to achieve straight hair in the treatment and the damage caused by it is irreversible.

Whether it is frizzy, dry or damaged hair that you are seeking respite from, there is a particular concoction that can work its magic on your hair and scalp, in an inexpensive yet highly effective manner. 5 Effective home based hair spa treatments for smoother, livelier hair Ditch the chemical based salon therapies for an au-naturel ayurvedic hair spa at home. Basically every home spa treatment involves the following 5 steps using different natural ingredients to cater to different hair goals. Oil: This is the first step usually for any home based therapy. Massage your hair and scalp with any nourishing & lukewarm hair oil of your choice for 15-20 minutes. Choose from a range of revitalizing oils such as coconut oil, olive oil, almond oil, or sesame oil, which facilitate in increasing the blood circulation and helps increase hair growth. Steam: Prepare a pot of boiling hot water and dip a clean towel in it. Squeeze away any excess water and use the warm towel to wrap your oiled hair and scalp in for 15-20 minutes. This helps oil penetrate deep inside the scalp while nourishing the hair strands. Wash: Now wash away the excess oil using cold or lukewarm water and a sulfate free shampoo. OTC, mass produced hair care products may suit some, not all. Try making a switch to personalized shampoos, conditioners, serums and oils by Bare Anatomy which are curated to suit your specific hair goals and hair constitution.

You could try mixing a couple of eggs with some coconut oil, applying the same on your hair, covering it with a warm towel for 15-20 minutes and then washing it off with cold water. Repeat the procedure every 15 days and say hello to gorgeous and fuller tresses that dance to your tunes, and not the other way round! Here are a few recipes you can try at home: 1.Honey & milk hair spa recipe for dry, frizzy hair The complex proteins present in milk help nourish your hair, while honey acts as a natural emollient rendering a shiny, lustrous appearance to your mane. Ingredients: 1 glass of full cream milk, 1 tablespoon of organic honey Method: Mix the honey in the milk and apply the mixture all over your hair. Massage your scalp using your fingertips for 15-20 minutes. Wrap your hair using a hot towel Remove after 15 minutes and wash it off using a mild sulfate free shampoo 2. Egg and Olive oil hair spa treatment for straightened hair Ingredients: 1 whole egg, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon honey, a pot of hot steaming water, towel Method: Whisk the ingredients until you get a smooth mixture. Steam your hair for about 10 minutes. Post steaming start applying egg and olive oil mask onto your hair and scalp. Leave the mixture for about 20 minutes. Wash off with cold water using a mild sulfate free shampoo. Apple Cider Vinegar hair spa for overcoming dandruff 3.  Apple Cider Vinegar hair spa for overcoming dandruff Ingredients: 2 tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV), 1 cup water, spray bottle, towel Method: Wash your hair using sulfate free shampoo, condition, and squeeze out excess water using a towel. In a spray bottle mix 2 tablespoons of ACV with 1 cup of water. Spray this mixture onto your hair and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Rinse it off using cold water. 4. Beer Hair Treatment for hair that feels like a million bucks Ingredients: 1 pint of flat beer  Method: Open a pint of beer & let it lie overnight in a bowl so that it goes flat. Wash your hair with a mild shampoo. Instead of using a conditioner pour the flat beer  through your hair and massage your scalp with it. Don't forget the most important step though While you've got yourself covered for self care Sundays once every 2 weeks, you must not forget what you put your hair through on a daily basis. As unfortunate as it is, that happens to be a tonne load of stress, pollution and unhealthy food (unless you're a saint of some sort) for most of us.

Flax Seeds for Hair: Benefits, Uses & DIY Hair Masks

Flax Seeds for Hair: Benefits, Uses & DIY Hair Masks

Superfoods never cease to surprise us with their never-ending list of benefits, do they? Flaxseed is another one of those ‘good at everything’ superfood for us. It’s highly nutritious and good from a beauty aspect.🌱Fun fact: Flaxseeds are one of the earliest crops cultivated by humans. They are packed with fibre, protein, vitamins, minerals and Omega-3. People use them widely in salad dressings, smoothies and even as a snack during their weight loss diet. But did you know that these tiny-shiny brown seeds can bless your hair with growth and luster?  What is Flaxseed? Flaxseeds are golden-brown seeds rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and plant-based nutrients. Since whole flaxseeds aren’t absorbed well by the body, they are usually consumed in powdered form or as cold-pressed flaxseed oil. How flaxseed helps hair health? The nutrients present in flax seeds keep the hair nourished and scalp hydrated. When you apply a plant-based oil to your hair, it seals the cuticle and prevents frizz and hair breakage. The function of flaxseed oil is similar.   Promotes Hair Growth: These seeds are a good source of B vitamins that help promote stronger and healthier hair at a rapid rate.  Omega-3 Boost: They’re also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are often found in fatty fishes. However, it’s present in a different form. The omega-3 present in plant-based foods also helps in heart health and reduces inflammation. It’s a great source of fatty acids for vegetarians.  Vitamin E Power: Much like other nuts and seeds, flaxseeds are also packed with vitamin E, which reduces the effects of free radicals on the scalp by looking at the production of sebum. 💡 Pro tip: Combine natural flaxseed remedies with Bare Anatomy Hair Growth Serum (infused with plant-based actives) to see visible results in hair thickness and strength Eating Flaxseed For Hair Eating the food and allowing the body to internally experience its benefits is one of the best ways to use a superfood. If you want to eat flaxseeds instead of using an oil or mask, that’s brilliant! You can take a spoonful of flaxseeds directly. You can roast them without oil and then consume. It’ll make it easier to chew them.  You can make a powder of flax seeds and add it to your smoothie.  You can also make a paste and add it to the dishes like uthappam, dips, dosa and so on.  If none of this works for you, go ahead and take the pills. Yes, flaxseed softens are available in the market for medicinal purposes.  DIY Flaxseed Hair Mask A flaxseed hair mask is like a natural spa treatment for your hair. How to make: Grind 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds and mix with 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Add a few drops of essential oil. Apply on scalp and hair, leave for 1–2 hours, and wash with a mild shampoo. ✨ For hassle-free results, try Bare Anatomy Ultra Smoothing Hair Mask, enriched with natural superfoods and proteins for hydration and shine. Flaxseed Oil For Hair Flaxseed oil is rich in fatty acids that deeply nourish the scalp and reduce hair thinning. You can: Massage it directly into your scalp. Add it to your DIY hair mask. Use it as a pre-shampoo treatment. 💡 If DIY feels messy, switch to Bare Anatomy Ultra Smoothing Shampoo & Mask, formulated with Omega-rich ingredients to mimic the nourishing effects of flaxseed oil. How To Make Flaxseed Gel For Hair Growth? Want a natural styling gel that doubles as a hair growth booster? Try flaxseed gel. Boil 2 tablespoons of flaxseeds in 2 cups of water for 10 minutes. Let it cool, strain, and store in a jar. Use it as a leave-in gel for frizz-free, shiny hair. Side Effects of Flaxseed Despite so many benefits, flaxseeds may cause ill-effects if you go overboard, so make sure you consume them in moderation otherwise you may face the following issues. Low blood pressure. Increased risk of prostate cancer.  Abdominal cramps, bloating, diarrhea, gas and constipation. Increased level of estrogen. Final Word Flaxseed is a natural powerhouse for your hair—hydrating, strengthening, and boosting growth. While DIY remedies are effective, combining them with Bare Anatomy hair care products ensures faster, long-lasting results.

Should You Be Ordering That Silicone-Based Hair Product?

Should You Be Ordering That Silicone-Based Hair Product?

The awareness about clean and natural beauty is shifting the priorities of the beauty industry for good. Every day you go online, you find a new option for the same old hair problem but how certain are you that it’s going to work for you? Your hair, my friend, is the Beyoncé of your life. You give it toxic ingredients, it’ll start looking dull, dusty and dead in no time. You give the right tools and nourishment; it’ll give you back a queen.  And by now, most of us know that almost all our store-bought products are filled with chemicals that give short-term illusions and long term damage. So the question becomes, what should we exactly be buying and using. We'll get there too, but first, let's know what's all the deal with silicones. What Exactly Are Silicones? The basic buzz is that silicones are a type of polymer that have multiple uses. However, in hair products, they are used to create a protective coat around the hair. It makes hair look smooth, soft and shiny by locking in the moisture and reducing frizz. Silicone-based hair products are often recommended for curly and coarse hair types as they tame unruly strands and make them more manageable. To sum it up, silicones work like plastic that protect hair by waterproofing each strand for a while. Water-Soluble Silicones  These silicones are the ones that dissolve in water, making them the good silicones. They wash off the hair easily without leaving any residue leading to a heavy buildup. If you wish to use silicone-based hair products, try to look for the ones with PEG as a prefix. It’s one of the most widely used silicone in hair products. It delivers all the promises made by silicone-based hair products without leaving buildup.  It’s lightweight and leaves very little buildup on the hair. Non-Water-Soluble Silicones  These are silicones that you cannot remove or penetrate with water. This leads to silicones “sticking” to the hair surface creating a plastic-like film, preventing strands to absorb water, air and nutrients, causing hair damage in the long run. If you've been using hair care products have non-soluble silicones, you can remove these silicones from the hair shaft by washing with clarifying shampoos otherwise known as shampoos with surfactants. Some non-soluble silicones that are typically found in hair products include ingredients ending with “-cone” Does Silicone Damage Hair? We know, we know, you all want your mane to look exactly the way silicones make it look but what if we told you, it’s rather an illusion. Much like plastic, silicone acts as a sealant against both air and water which prevents moisture from penetrating the hair shaft. Silicones don’t wash out of hair easily. Ever noticed how your hair appear smokey when blow dried at a salon? Yeah, that’s the silicones heating up and burning off your hair. Silicone isn’t a natural ingredient and its side effects can be bad for your hair. The shine provided by silicone is fake which comes from plastic. What you’re truly looking for is a natural shine which can be achieved with healthy and hydrated hair. Silicone eventually weighs hair down making it limp, lifeless and dull. Pros And Cons of Silicone in Hair Products Interesting fact: Silicones have been a part of the beauty industry since the 1950s. Much like everything else silicone-based products have both advantages and disadvantages. Here are the ones you need to keep on your tips when choosing your hair product. Pros Silicones do have a bad reputation but still they have been an integral part of beauty products because they’re effective to use. Unlike natural oils, silicones are stable and do not degrade UV light of heat. Such stability is needed to protect hair when you are exposing your hair to a lot of heat from direct sunlight and styling tools. Silicone-based hair products can make your dull and dry hair look healthy and shiny for some time. Not to mention, they make the detangling process easier. Cons As silicones are like rubber or plastic, they damage your hair a lot eventually. Silicone-based hair products may solve your problems temporarily but can never be the permanent solution. By using silicone-based products, you are allowing a plastic-like layer to form on your hair which is also keeping the nutrition from getting in. In essence, you might get the shine for a couple of days but over time, it will attract more buildup on the hair, weigh them down and make them dry. This is really unhealthy for your hair in the long run. Due to the lack of moisture, your hair will become brittle and will face issues like frizz and breakage. Should You Stop Using Silicone-Based Products? We, as lovers of nature, wouldn’t suggest a hair products loaded with harsh chemicals. We would rather like to draw your attention to all the wonderful options you have in your court to embrace your harmless personalized beauty. Based on your lifestyle, hair problems and hair type, your needs are very different from the others and we respect that the most at Bare Anatomy.  We have made it super easy for you to go for a life that’s toxin-free. You can avoid all the buildup issues.   If you agree to move to a more clean  hair care routine, go ahead and use natural oil-based products. They’ll successfully lock-in the moisture that’s good for your hair.   #baretip: Keep your hair naturally hydrated by giving them a much-needed oil massage.   Things To Keep In Mind When Choosing A Hair Product Now that you lovelies are ready to shop, allow these tips to make you spend right and take you a long way.   To choose the best hair product, firstly, you must be aware of your hair type.   Studying the brands and the list of ingredients can prevent you from unintentionally damaging your hair.

Their active ingredients contain essential oil-based extract. To ensure maximum nourishing, buy hair-based serums enriched with natural oils without making the crown greasy.  Treating dry hair issues Losing moisture because of climatic issues triggers frizz-hair, devoid of smooth tone and shine. Serum with silicon-based formula imparts frizz-control, it makes hair retain moisture and repairs damaged hair from the pore.  Protecting curls along hair strands Curly hairstyles have whole different popularity. Again, it's prone to becoming frizz-hair, besides being vulnerable under the sun. The ideal serum should contain a lightweight formula to add moisture along the curled length from root to tip.  Repairing hair from chemical treatment  Chemical treatment covers highlighting your hair using artificial dye, straightening or curling using hot tools, regular sessions of blow-drying. It sucks moisture from the crown, causing your hair to turn frizz. To repair chemically affected hairstyles, buy oil-based frizz-free serums. It increases the water content in the hair surface to restore the secretion of essential oil, providing a complete overhaul.  Hair serums for split ends Split ends affect the tip of the hair, splitting it from exposure to harsh conditions or a side effect of chemical treatment. Such hairstyle may retain a smooth tone between the root and the tip. It leads to frizz-hair when left untreated. When shopping for hair repairing serum, make sure it contains keratin, hyaluronic acid and collagen. These are building blocks of the epidermis and repair damaged crown in little time.  What additional hair products to use with hair serums? The secret to a hassle-free hairstyle round the clock, your hair should receive nutrition daily like the human body. Besides, using hair-based serum is not enough without a comprehensive hair care routine. Here's the list of additional hair care products you need other than hair repairing serum.  Role of hair oil Using hair oil daily is beneficial for long hair. It nourishes the entire hair volume from tip to root. During summer, hair experiences intense blow-dry from harsh climatic conditions. Hair oil extracted from coconut, olive, or jojoba shield its exposed surface from denaturation, preventing hair shedding.   The need to shampoo We use soap to keep our body skin clean and free from secretive build-ups. Shampoo performs a similar role for crown hair. It cleanses the excess sebum build-up secreted daily to lubricate the hair follicles. Shampoos contain added ingredients to check hair loss, maintain a clean scalp, and add a refreshing tone to your hair volume after every bath. What is the purpose of a hair conditioner? Hair conditioner nourishes your hair from tip to root and adds a protective covering that shields the strands from damage with a subtle touch of beauty. Unlike hair oil, it's applied to damp hair after shampooing. It repairs blow-dry damages, rejuvenates coarse hair, and protects the hair follicles from environmental shocks that trigger sudden loss of hair.  Hair mask and its advantage Benefits Of Using Hair Masks is to treat intensive damages like excessive drying, sensitive hair cuticle, sudden shedding or hair loss. These have higher moisturising potential than average conditioners. Besides, it contains raw extracts of essential ingredients beneficial for hair growth and restoration.  The role of home remedies in smoothing hair A daily hair care routine is the first step to maintaining healthy hair. Homemade remedies nourish and replenish the scalp, also serve as a convenient and natural replacement for harmful chemical ingredients. If you are new to hair routine, here's what to do next: Occasional scissors Trimming is a vital part of hair growth and longevity. When hair strands extend, they may develop broken ends. Split hair strands affect the hair cuticle and become prone to frequent hair loss. Trim your hair conveniently from the tip to eliminate its splicing tendency. Nutritional supplements Most hair problems begin as a side effect of poor nutritional habits. If your diet lacks minimal portions of vitamins, minerals and macronutrients like calcium, iron, the hair follicles can experience sudden shedding from acute deficiency. If you have dietary restrictions or are a picky eater, consume oral supplements to replenish the lack of nutrition in your body.  Follow haircare routine Design a personal hair care routine to tackle hair problems. If you have a busy lifestyle but look forward to sporting long hair, combining time management with compatible products helps neutralise hair issues. You can wash your hair on alternate days, apply shampoo and conditioners twice a week and put hair mask during the weekend if your hair is prone to an active lifestyle. Practice protection while going out Besides trying out hair treatment and applying home remedies, a preventive lifestyle is vital to reduce the chances of hair damage. When stepping out under intense sunlight, cover your face and head, or wear a hair cap to prevent harm from prolonged exposure. Also, after returning from a humid and sweaty day, apply a damp towel around your hair to keep it moisturised.  Cold shower While lukewarm water is ideal for our body temperature, give your hair moisture-laden cold water during wash days. Showering using cold water enhances blood circulation around the scalp, keeps the hair cuticle closed, and prevents frizzy hair or abrupt breakage. Unlike warm water, it doesn't steal moisture and hardly leaves the hair volume dry and vulnerable.  Using a homemade hair nourishing serum Hair serum has become a potential buzzword when discussing DIY hair care methods. Preparing a homemade serum for your hair has become easier than before. Find your hair type, make a serum using usual ingredients like coconut oil, rose water, olive oil, aloe vera gel and store it conveniently. Also, homemade hair serum is a cheaper alternative with zero harmful chemicals.  How to maintain a hassle-free hairstyle? The secret to a hassle-free hairstyle is following a dedicated hair care routine. If you want to sport long and shiny hair in the future, here's what you need to follow: Regular trimming is a must for removing splicing ends. It prevents damage to the entire strand while healthy inches grow back quickly. Keep your hair braided (long strands) because it prevents entanglement when kept open, especially during sleep.  Combing enhances blood circulation. People with long and thick hair show enhanced blood circulation in their scalp. Also, comb your hair before going to shower, never after it. Apply shampoo and conditioner conveniently. Stick to organic hair products that are 100% friendly to your scalp. Try warm oil moisturising in wet hair. You can also apply a suitable hair mask. You may visit a dermatologist once in a couple of months to check your hair for any underlying issues. Also, maintaining appropriate hygiene is vital to preventing lice infections or fungal attacks.  What are the side effects of using hair smoothing serums daily? A nourishing serum is a concentrated source of ingredients that benefit hair development. Some of them contain minoxidil, enhancing hair growth and development. The rest impart scalp protection and contain silicon (lightweight formulation). Side effects include: Topical reaction (allergy, itching, inflammation, red hives) Triggers loss of hair upon application Causes unexplained dryness or imparts frizzy tone to hair strands Thinning of hair strands Always perform an allergy test before using any best hair serum on your scalp. What do netizens think about hair smoothing serums?  The prevalence of damaged hair and serial hair fall amongst netizens has made them look for a preventive solution. While most hair smoothening serums promise zero hair issues, the sheer abundance of chemical ingredients in them makes it worse for individuals with sensitive skin.  We are thoroughly against paid commissions to promote harmful skincare products. We value your tender skin because you deserve the best hair smoothening serums with authentic video testimony from real individuals.

Improved Hair Care Routine for Wavy Hair and What Products to Use?

Improved Hair Care Routine for Wavy Hair and What Products to Use?

30 Second Digest Wavy hair is more prone to breakage and regular use of heat tools can cause damage. Water-based hair care products are best for wavy hair treatment at home. Air dry your waves to tame frizz and save it from damage from heat tools. Condition your hair at least twice a month to improve the texture of your waves. Wavy hair is misunderstood most of the time because of the subtle curl pattern it has. Most people think that their hair is just too manageable and it needs to be straightened to be 'perfect'. Before we get into details, we must understand that wavy hair is equally as beautiful as straight and curly hair and can be even better if you know how to care for wavy hair. In this article, you will find all the information you need regarding wavy hair - from how you can identify your hair type to what products are suitable for wavy hair. How To Know Your Hair Type The main reason why so many people fail to get healthier hair despite spending on expensive hair products is because they still don't know what their hair type is. Plus, wavy hair type is very unappreciated. Most people use styling products to curl or straighten their hair, thinking that it will reduce frizz and make their hair look presentable. The truth is, using styling products too often is not going to make an impact on your hair permanently. In fact, this will cause heat damage and will lead to hair breakage. Each and everyone has a beautiful hair type - they are just yet to know how to take good care of their hair. This chart consists of all hair types and if you see find resemblance with Type 2a, 2b, or 2c, your hair type is wavy. So now that you're sure of your hair type, let's understand how you can make it look even better. How to Choose the Right Wavy Hair Products for your Hair? Based on the chart presented above, wavy hair comes in three types - 21, 2b, and 2c. And each type requires a different treatment. Here are the ways to take care of your hair based on the type of your waves. Type 2a If you notice a slight wave to your hair with lots of body, your wave type is 2a. Frizz is usually a big issue for wavy hair and the best way to have that under control is to incorporate hydrating shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask into your hair care routine. You can style your hair with water-based hair products such as gel, mousse, leave-in conditioner, and serum. Type 2b If you notice 'S' patterns in your hair with a little bit of bounce, you have type 2b of waves. Frizz is a big issue for this hair type but that can be tamed with the help of extra moisturizing, water-based products. Try to use a hair mask at least twice a month to see a visible difference in your hair texture. Investing in a super-hydrating lotion is also a great idea for maintaining healthy hair. Type 2c This hair type is often confused with curls but the only way to tell the difference is to see compare the texture, thickness, and tightness. Type 2c hair has a proper 'S' shape and is described as 'deep waves'. This type of wave is prone to heat damage and breakage. To manage this type of hair with less breakage and frizz, using a cream-based or water-based hair mask twice a month is highly recommended by experts. Hair Care 101 for Wavy Hair Type: Wavy Hair Products to be used Every hair type needs proper wash and conditioning for smooth and manageable hair and wavy hair type is no different. However, the way of taking care is not the same for every hair type. There are a few things wavy hair owners must keep in mind on their wash days for effective long-term results. Here's how to maintain wavy hair for best results - Shampooing and Conditioning Shampooing with regular shampoos washes away the natural oils of your hair. That's why it is always recommended to use hydrating shampoos while washing hair to ensure that the hair doesn't look rough and frizzy afterward. Never forget to deep condition your hair once you are done using shampoo. Using conditioner after washing your hair is essential because it helps you maintain the shine you long for. Also, your wash day should be twice or thrice a week depending on how oily your scalp gets. Clumping The best way to make your waves look healthy is to clump your hair once you are done washing and conditioning. Wavy hair needs a few extra products to maintain its proper shape. The squish to condish clumping technique is very useful if you want your waves to look healthy and salon-style. Scrunch the ends of your hair using your palms as much as possible to achieve defined waves. Remember that clumping only works on wet hair, so it's best to do it right after a shower. Diffuser The best tool for maintaining wavy hair is a diffuser because it speeds up the drying process and gives you bouncy waves with more volume. But remember that diffuser can cause frizz heat damage if not used properly, so it's best to use this tool only when you are in rush with a heat protectant and hair serum to keep your hair free from damage and frizz. Air drying your wavy hair after clumping is much more preferred as it keeps the moisture in your hair intact. Wavy Hair Products Products made for wavy hair type is much different from other types of hair. Since wavy hair is prone to frizz, it's best to add hair care products that are water-based because products with heavy oil and butter can weigh down your hair and make it look lifeless. If you want to incorporate oil-based products into your hair care, look for argan oil-infused hair care products for the best results. Oil and water-infused products add moisture to your hair and make it look voluminous. You can also use gel and hair mousse to style your hair rather than using heat tools. Choosing 'the one' for your hair type can be tricky at times. Not everyone has time to do hours of research to find a single hair care product that matches all their needs. Instead, you can take a hair quiz at Bare Anatomy's website to get your hair care products customized. Finding your perfect match in shampoo, serum, conditioner, and hair mask will no longer be a tiresome process. Flat Roots One of the main issues of wavy hair is that they have flat roots that stick to your scalp. The best way to fix it is to use clipping techniques. Turn your head upside down while performing the clipping technique to get the best results. Another great way to maintain volume is to shuffle your scalp using your fingers. Tips to Maintain the Perfect Waves using Wavy Hair Products Taking care of hair doesn't end after the hair wash. Apart from washing and conditioning your hair, there are a few other things to keep in mind to maintain your gorgeous waves. Here are some of the best tips that will make you fall in love with your bouncy waves. Tip 1. Use the Right Hair Washing System As previously discussed, different hair types require different hair washing systems. Washing wavy hair extra care compared to fine hair and straight hair because waves are more prone to breakage. Avoid using warm water on wash day because it can make your hair lose its moisture and result in frizzy hair. Shampoos with parabens and sulfate are one of the reasons behind frizzy hair after shampooing. To tame frizzy hair, switch to parabens, silicon, and sulfate free shampoo. Another common mistake is using shampoo directly onto your scalp. This ensures that you are using the proper amount of product on your hair and not overdoing it. Also, start by using a small amount of shampoo for your first wash. Then, if needed, you can always add more product to your hair if you want. Co washes your hair after shampooing and conditioning for intense hydration of hair. Tip 2. Air Dry Your Hair Even though blow-drying hair makes the whole drying process a lot quicker, it's best if you don't make it a habit. Once you are done removing the excess water from your hair and the clumping process, apply serum or a leave-in conditioner and let your hair air dry. Using a diffuser, hair dryer, and other heat tools regularly can damage your hair. Tip 3. Use Wide Tooth Comb to Detangle Your Hair Brushing damp hair is never a good idea because that's the hair that breaks the most but brushing completely dry hair has its problems too. The solution is to use a wide tooth comb to brush your hair when it hair damp. This will help you detangle the hair with ease and will cause minimum to zero hair fall. Tip 4. Wrap Your Head with Cotton T Shirt to Remove Excess Water This is going to be a life-changing hack for your wavy hair. Aggressive use of towels while removing excess water from hair results in breakage and loss of moisture. Replace your hair towels with cotton t-shirts while removing excess water from hair to save it from breakage. Alternatively, you can use a microfibre towel to wrap your head after a shower. Wrapping Up Wavy hair rarely gets the hype it deserves because wavy hair owners are more focused on achieving straight hair or curly hair. If you are one of those people, this is your sign to stop damaging your hair with heat styling products every day and start enhancing your natural hair. Now that you know how to take care of wavy hair, it's high time you start putting in some efforts to make your hair healthier. With the right hair care products, you will soon achieve the hair you always longed for. FAQs about Wavy Hair Products What products to use if you have wavy hair?
