How to care for finicky hair

The sun is not always a friend

Yes, it gives us vitamin D and mood, but it also dries out the hair, changes its color, and provokes "frizz" — those small ones that stick out in all directions. And warm temperatures can make hair frizzy, even for those who have never had curls.

The main moisturiser

When there is humidity in the air, especially after rain, your hair starts to frizz because moisture gets inside and breaks the micro-bonds that hold its shape. That's why it's important to use moisturising shampoos, especially if you have curly or fine hair. It is ideal to choose those that leave a water-repellent barrier on the hair. It's like a raincoat for every hair.

Thermal protection is not only against hairdryers

Many people think that thermal protection is only for styling. In fact, it also helps block harmful UV rays. Not all products are able to do this, so you should look for those with a direct indication of UV protection.

Regular washing

Most girls wash their hair only a few times a week. But this is not always a good thing. The scalp is like the skin of the face: it collects sweat, dust, and secretes oil. If you don't wash it regularly, all this accumulates, and dandruff, unpleasant shine, and tired-looking hair appear. It is ideal to wash your hair once in two days. The main thing is to take your time: a little massage (up to a minute) while washing, rinse well, and then your head is really clean.

Interestingly, if the hair is thin, there are more hairs per centimetre of scalp than in people with thick or curly hair. And the more hairs you have, the more sebaceous glands you have, which means that you get greasy faster.
