Basic Haircare Steps Every Woman Needs to Know

As a woman, taking care of your hair is essential. You want to make sure that it looks good every day, following some basic hair care steps. Here at Overstock-Beauty, we want to help you look your best. We've put together this list of essential hair care tips for gorgeous locks.

 

1) Shampoo And Condition Your Hair Regularly

The first step to gorgeous hair is keeping it clean! Shampoo and condition your hair regularly to prevent build-up, making your locks look lifeless. Try to shampoo every other day or every three days if you have dry hair. And don’t forget to condition – this will help keep your hair hydrated and looking its best.

 

2) Ensure You Use A Good Quality Shampoo And Conditioner Suited To Your Hair Type

Every woman has a different hair type, so it is essential to find a shampoo and conditioner that works well with your hair. If you are not sure what kind of hair you have, ask your stylist for help in choosing the right products.

Some common hair types are:

  • Normal
  • Dry
  • Oily
  • Damaged
  • Color-treated

After finding the right products for your hair, use them correctly. Apply shampoo to wet hair and massage it into your scalp before rinsing it out. Follow up with conditioner, focusing on the ends of your hair. Allow the conditioner to sit for a few minutes before rinsing it out.

The best Dry Shampoo should contain ingredients like:

  • Rice starch
  • Arrowroot powder
  • Kaolin clay

These ingredients will help to absorb excess oil and give your hair a fresh, clean appearance. Apply the dry shampoo to your roots and brush it through your hair. If you have dark hair, choose a translucent dry shampoo so it won't leave any white residue.

 

3) Use A Heat Protectant When Styling Your Hair With Hot Tools

A heat protectant is required if you use any hot styling tools on your hair, such as a curling iron, flat iron, or hairdryer. Heat protectants help shield your hair from the high temperatures of these styling tools and prevent damage.

Here are the steps to follow when using a heat protectant:

  • Start with clean, dry hair.
  • Spray the heat protectant evenly onto your hair.
  • Comb through your hair to distribute the product evenly.

-Style your hair as usual with hot tools. The Unite 75-second masque is an excellent option for all hair types. It helps to detangle, hydrate, and add shine to your hair.
