Find and Use Your Staples: Good Hair Habit #1

Firstly, you need to identify the hair products that work best for your hair. That’s what this tip is about. It may seem like common sense but it’s no secret that many ladies (and even gents) are product junkies.

It’s next to impossible to discover what your hair thrives on when using too wide an array of products.

Schedule a Set Wash Day: Good Hair Habit #2

Secondly, you’ll want to pick a day that you care for your crown. For instance, a Saturday.

Depending on your hair goals, you may have two set days to wash your hair. For example, I sometimes like to do a mid-week wash on Wednesdays during the summer months.

On days I do a mid-week wash, I don’t deep condition (the next hair habit). The mid week wash isn’t about getting my hair clean. It’s more about infusing my strands with a lot of moisture. Simultaneously, any product residue is removed.

Hair can get very dry in the summer months. That’s not what this tips is about but figured this was an interesting tidbit to share.

It’s not what it sounds like. Deep conditioning is the focus of this habit. In addition, you will discover why it’s important to do this every single wash day.

Deep conditioning your hair is key to a head of healthy hair.

Moisturize and Seal Daily: Good Hair Habit #4

The title is self-explanatory. This habit is essential to hair that doesn’t break. Most importantly, it takes discipline.

There’s a bit of controversy on this one but I’ve discovered that hair can thrive off of a bit of moisture every single day. That doesn’t mean you’ll need to drench your tresses.

In other words, a spritz here and a spritz there.

Make a Date with Protein: Good Hair Habit #5

Ever at the forefront of controversy, using protein in your hair is a habit you don’t want to skip.

For those with fine natural hair, protein is a substance that needs to stick closer than a brother. Similarly, you want it to stick like white on rice.

Protective Style 80% of the Time: Good Hair Habit #6

This may not be something you want to do if you aren’t interested in long hair. But, if you ever are, the tips are here for you.

Protective styling is also a good practice for when you simply just don’t feel like dealing with your hair.

Don’t Give Damage a Free Pass: Good Hair Habit #7

Damaged hair is the opposite of healthy hair. Similarly, a face full of acne is the opposite of healthy skin.

Massaging your scalp is key to stimulating the blood flow in it. As a result, you can expect an increase in the rate of hair growth, assuming you’re diligent with the other hair habits.

Review Your Regimen Twice a Year – Good Hair Habit #9

Reviewing your hair care regimen is not an everyday hair habit, but it’s just as important. Therefore, make it a priority by putting it on your calendar if it’s not easy to remember twice a year.

This is especially important for those like me who live in a state with four seasons.

Care for Your Hair from Within: Good Hair Habit #10

Diet, diet, diet! What you put in is what you get out. For example, drink lots of water to hydrate your hair from within.
