Being knowledgeable about hair cleaning and care tips is important, but even more critical is understanding that there are many hair types, each with specific needs.
Natural cosmetics have the advantage of being highly benevolent to both hair and the scalp since they cleanse gently and care for the hair without causing damage. They are produced naturally without dyes, preservatives, synthetic fragrances, silicones, or sulfates that can be harsh. Taking care of your skin and hair with these natural products has many benefits.
Care Based on Hair Type:
Dry and Damaged Hair:
This type of hair is often found in long hair or hair treated with chemical products. It is very sensitive, breaks easily, and tends to have split ends. To care for it, it's essential to avoid direct heat on the hair and allow it to air dry. Avoid using chemical dyes, bleach, or treatments that can harm it, such as perms, waves, or straightening. In this case, it's recommended to use a repairing range shampoo containing proteins and shea butter.
Dry Hair with Dandruff:
For this type of hair, proper care is mandatory. Argan oil, which intensely lubricates, and yogurt, which hydrates, can be very helpful. Both products also help eliminate dandruff, and the best results are obtained with a gentle massage. Afterward, wrap the hair in a towel to let the products work for about half an hour. Rinse the hair only with water, without using any shampoo. Remember not to wash dandruff-prone hair with very hot water, and it's not recommended to use a hairdryer. High-quality shampoos with salicylic acid and exfoliating properties should be used, leaving them to act for 2 to 3 minutes.
Fine and Thin Hair:
Proper care and brushing are vital for this hair type. Brushes should have natural bristles, and if you want to add volume, try using rollers. Additionally, maintaining a healthy and balanced diet by providing the necessary amount of proteins, iron, zinc, silicon, and vitamins B and H is important for making the hair look healthy and beautiful. Shampoos for this hair type should lift the roots and provide volume, containing biotin and collagen.
Dyed Hair:
With each wash, hair dye loses its pigments because the hair cuticle swells, allowing shampoo to penetrate the hair fibers better. Therefore, it's important to use color-protecting products that prevent the hair cuticle from opening too much, reducing the frequency of dyeing. To provide protection and shine, it's advisable to rinse the hair with cold water, as it helps close the hair cuticles.
Greasy Hair:
This hair type can be washed as needed, even daily. To care for greasy hair, the shampoo should contain antifungal and antibacterial ingredients to regulate excess oil and keep the hair clean for longer. Keeping the hair tied up, minimizing touching it, and avoiding bangs, flat irons, and hairdryers will also help maintain its cleanliness.
Sensitive and Itchy Scalp:
In this case, the most important thing is to relieve discomfort, and for this, a treatment with organic oils is recommended. The best results are achieved by doing this treatment once a week and leaving it on overnight. Rosewater can also help relieve scalp itchiness, especially in winter when the hair suffers more due to dry indoor heating.
In addition to these specific care routines, you can also include a multivitamin complex in your daily routine to help take care of your hair from the inside easily and conveniently. An example of this is Hair & Nails by Matcha & CO, a multivitamin complex containing vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C, D3, E, combined with biotin, L-Cystine, minerals, iron, and Matcha. It is specifically designed to strengthen hair and nails while increasing density, volume, and shine.
