The Importance of Hair Maintenance & Tips for Healthy Hair

Taking care of your hair is one of the most important tasks when it comes to keeping your body clean and healthy. It is essential to keep your hair healthy overall and looking good. Unhealthy hair can lead to various hair problems that include: hair loss, dandruff, sensitive scalp and breakage. Making sure your hair is always at its best will prevent any of these things from happening to you. Here are some of our favourite tips for keeping your hair looking good every day.

• Regular Washing: Arguably the most important step is washing your hair and keeping it clean. Washing your hair helps to remove dirt, sweat and excess oil from your skin which can cause irritation and hair problems later down the line. It is important to note that over-washing can strip your hair of natural oils, leading to dryness and hair breakage. We recommend washing your hair 1-3 times a week with a shampoo that suits your hair type. We have an awesome range of shampoos for any hair type that our stylists can recommend to you.

• Condition Your Hair: Conditioning is just as essential as washing it and goes hand in hand with your shampoo routine. A good conditioner helps to nourish and moisturise your hair, making it look soft and shiny. Conditioner helps detangle your hair, reducing breakage. Remember to avoid over-conditioning your hair as it can make your hair look greasy and flat. We have a wide range of amazing conditioners in our shop that caters to a wide range of different hair types.

• Trim Your Hair Regularly: We know that trimming isn’t always the most fun idea for anyone who loves growing out their hair, but the benefits of trimming your hair regularly are beneficial for your hair to grow as healthy and happy as it deserves. Trimming your hair removes split ends and damaged hair, making your hair look healthier immediately. It promotes healthy hair growth and makes your hair look fuller too! The recommended time for trimming your hair is roughly every 3-6 months, depending on your hair type and other factors that differ from person to person. Our stylists can help you decide how often your hair should be trimmed and guide you through the process thereof. Inasmuch, our stylists are extremely professional and their methods are tried and true. At Excentric Hair, we pride ourselves in giving our clients the haircuts they need and want!

• Protect Your Hair from the Artificial & Natural Heat: Sun exposure and styling tool heat exposure can severely damage your hair by making it dry and brittle. It is always recommended to wear a hat or use hair sunscreen to protect your hair from the sun's rays. When it comes to styling tools, using a heat protector on your hair will be the best thing you ever do for your hair. We stock a range of heat protector products that can help make your hair feel great after straightening, curling or blow-drying it. Our heat protection sprays are perfect for any hair.

In conclusion, maintaining healthy hair is essential for overall health and well-being. By following these tips, you can promote healthy hair growth, prevent hair problems, and have beautiful, shiny hair. Remember, taking care of your hair is not a one-time thing but a continuous process. With proper care, you can have healthy, beautiful hair that you will love.
