Hair Care

Every girl has a different hair texture and hair type. Some have dry hair, some have oily hair while some have normal hair. Therefore each hair type has a different treatment. 

Care for oily hair: 

Oily hair has a very common teenage problem because your scalp is producing a little more sebum and oil than it should. For oily hair care do the following:

1. Wash your hair as often as you can and if possible everyday but use a mild shampoo or a shampoo, which is for frequent or daily use.

2. Avoid using anti-dandruff shampoos, which also stimulates the sebaceous glands to produce more sebum. 

3. Try not to brush and comb your hair a lot since both of these activities will stimulate the sebaceous glands. 

4. You don't have to apply a conditioner for oily hair. 

5. If you want to make your hair drier then you can get it permed, dyed or tinted.

Care for dry hair: 

Dry hair needs extra care since it easily gets split ends and looks listless. For dry hair care do the following:

1. Always use a good conditioner after applying shampoo and washing your hair.

2. Let your hair dry naturally and even if you do use a blower, dry your hair on low heat.

3. Before shampooing your hair apply oil thoroughly to your hair and keep it for 1 hour and then wash. 

4. Wash your hair as infrequently as possible, perhaps once in 4 days and use a mild shampoo. 

5. Don't brush your hair out, just comb it gently.

Dealing With Dandruff Trouble 

Dandruff is a big problem and an embarrassment but if you know your facts right about dandruff you can deal with this problem. Dandruff is not abnormal, nor does an infection or fungus cause it. It is merely skin cells that are lost from the surface of your scalp all the time and the presence of hair blocks the dead cells from falling off. They become piled up into thicker dead scales and this is called dandruff. You can thus control this accumulation of dead cells with regular, frequent washing, if possible everyday with a mild shampoo or a shampoo for daily use. Avoid rubbing or scratching but rinse your hair thoroughly so that you don't leave any shampoo behind.

Choosing a Hairstyle

Your hairstyle should be one which is easily manageable and which will allow to be dried naturally and too much styling. The best way to find a hairstyle is to flip through a magazine and whichever style you choose make sure that it suits your face and looks realistic.
