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. Regardless of whether it is blonde or brown hair and whether it is short or long: the supply of supporting nutrients is essential. In addition to a balanced diet, nutritional supplements can help to support beautiful hair.
Which factors are bad for hair?
It's not just women who dream of having full, shiny hair. Men also place a lot of value on beautiful hair. But not everyone is blessed with healthy, full hair. Hair can be dry, dull, thin, thick or stubborn. And it can suddenly fall out, which can even have a psychological impact.
Blow-drying your hair at too high a temperature, regular dyeing and perming put strain on your hair. But hairstyles that constantly pull on your hair or wearing hats can also have a negative effect on your hair. Smoking and the tobacco smell that comes with it should also be avoided.
Hair loss – what you need to know
If only a few hairs collect in the brush and shower, you don't need to worry. Only when your hair falls out in clumps and even bald patches form, doctors speak of hair loss (alopecia). This can affect just the scalp or the whole body. In addition, hair loss can be temporary or permanent. Baldness is usually genetic and unavoidable. The following tips can help to counteract preventable types of hair loss.
The most important tips about your hair.
Washing your hair properly
Do you jump in the shower as soon as your hair looks greasy? Be careful, washing your hair too often can dry it out and also encourage your scalp to produce more sebum. The result: your hair quickly looks greasy again. Therefore, you should only wash your hair every two to three days to avoid this vicious circle. Less is more. The best thing to do is to extend the washing rhythm step by step to wean your hair off from washing too often. This may take some effort, but it is worth it.
Use mild shampoo
The range of hair shampoos in the supermarket is huge and it is difficult to choose. Not all shampoos clean and care for the hair gently. 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 surface of the hair and this deposit means that care substances can no longer penetrate to the inside of the hair.
Do not rub your hair dry
When wet or damp, your hair is very sensitive and therefore breaks more easily. We recommend that you do not rub your hair dry, but rather just 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. A supply of vitamins and minerals is important for healthy growth. If you have a deficiency, your hair will be weak, brittle and, in the worst case, the deficiency will lead to hair loss. The following nutrients and foods are particularly important for strong hair: biotin, selenium, zinc, vitamin C, silicon, as well as high-quality proteins and omega-3 fatty acids.
