Why is beautiful hair important?
Beautiful, full hair is a sign of vitality and influences our appearance. Beauty ideals have existed for thousands of years and hair has always played the most important role in them. No matter whether it is blond or brown hair and whether it is short or long: the supply of supporting nutrients is essential. In addition to a balanced diet, supplements can help support beautiful hair.
What factors are bad for hair?
Full, shiny hair is not only a dream of women. Men also attach great importance to beautiful hair. But not everyone is blessed with healthy, full hair. Hair can be dry, dull, thin, thick or stubborn. And it can suddenly run out, which can even affect the psyche.
Too-hot blow-drying, regular coloring and perming put a strain on your hair. But also hairstyles that permanently pull your hair or wearing hats can have a bad effect on your hair. Smoking and the tobacco air that goes with it should also be avoided.
Hair loss - what you need to know
If only a few hairs collect in the brush and the shower, you don't have to worry yet. Only when your hair falls out in clumps and even bald patches form, the medical profession speaks of hair loss (alopecia). This can affect only the scalp or even the whole body. In addition, hair loss can be temporary or permanent. Baldness is mostly genetic and not preventable. The following tips can help to counteract preventable types of hair loss.
The most important tips around your hair.
Washingyour hair properly
You jump into the shower as soon as your hair looks greasy? Be careful, washing your hair too often can dry it out and also gives your scalp the impulse to produce more sebum. The result: your hair quickly looks greasy again. Therefore, you should wash your hair only about every two to three days to escape this vicious circle. Less is more. The best thing to do is to extend the hair washing rhythm step by step in order to wean your hair from too much washing. This may take some effort, but it's worth it.
Use mild shampoos
The range of hair shampoos available in supermarkets is huge and it's hard to choose. Not all shampoos cleanse and condition hair mildly. The wrong hair products can damage your hair. When buying your shampoo, make sure that it contains extra mild surfactants. These clean your hair reliably and are gentle on your scalp at the same time. Also avoid silicones and parabens. These settle on the hair surface and this deposit leads to the fact that care substances can no longer penetrate to the hair interior.
Do not rub your hair dry
In wet or damp condition, your hair is very sensitive and therefore breaks off more easily. We recommend that you do not rub your hair dry, but only dab it gently with a towel.
Eat a balanced diet
A healthy, balanced diet not only has a positive effect on your well-being, but also on the vitality of your hair. The supply of vitamins and minerals is important for healthy growth. In case of a deficiency, your hair will be weak, brittle and in the worst case, the deficiency will lead to hair loss. For strong hair, the following nutrients and foods are especially worth mentioning: Biotin, selenium, zinc, vitamin C, silicon, as well as high-quality proteins, omega-3 fatty acids.
