How to Keep Your Hair Healthy and Growing
Regular Trimming
No matter how thick and strong your hair is, it constantly breaks at the ends. Hair breakage often happens due to daily activities such as washing and blow-drying. Excessive breakage can make your hair look dull and lifeless over time. If you're trying to grow your hair longer, breakage can also hinder its full potential. To prevent hair breakage, trim your hair every two to three months. Removing just half an inch every few months helps to avoid those unsightly split ends.

Deep Conditioning
Chances are, you already make a point to thoroughly condition your hair after every wash, which is great. However, it's equally important to give your hair a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week. You can easily find an affordable deep conditioner at your local drugstore. These deep conditioning products typically come in a jar and have a thicker consistency compared to regular conditioners.
When using a deep conditioner, generously apply it to your hair and allow it to penetrate for five to ten minutes before rinsing it out. Deep conditioners can penetrate the hair shaft, mending and nourishing it from within. Once you've used a deep conditioner, you should notice a visible difference – your hair will appear shinier and feel noticeably softer to the touch.
Balanced Diet
It might seem strange, but taking care of yourself on the inside can have noticeable effects on the outside. Eating a balanced diet can lead to stronger and shinier hair, as well as give you radiant skin and healthier fingernails. Make sure to drink at least sixty-four ounces of water a day and consume three to five servings of fruits or vegetables.
Vitamins for Healthy Hair
Additionally, aim for about five servings of grains, two servings of protein, and two servings of dairy daily. Try to limit your intake of empty calories from sources like soda, chips, and chocolate. If your busy schedule often prevents you from eating a well-balanced diet, consider taking a good multivitamin supplement.
