Your hair style is an important part of your overall look. It shows the level of grooming, maturity, and personality. And there is nothing wrong or feminine about taking care of your hair. Here is a beginner guide to getting started with a proper hair care routine for men.
First, you need to understand that good hair is a direct result of healthy scalp. To properly take care of your hair, you need to start from the scalp. The scalp is naturally enriched with oil it secretes (sebum) which ensures the quality of your hair and keeps them healthy and hydrated. Different skin or scalp types will need different hair care routines. Following are some of the most common types of scalps.
Oil scalp are easy to spot and they often seem too greasy. This can however be avoided with proper cleaning on alternate basis. You need to use mild soap or shampoo or any other product that should help deal with balancing the nature of healthy hair and sebum production. If mild solution is not used it could result in more generation of sebum which would only make things worse.
Dry Scalp
Dry scalp are easy to spot because they have the presence of dandruff. If you have dry scalp your hair needs an emphasis on being hydrated and production of sebum to enrich the quality of your hair. It is highly recommended that you consult a doctor prior to using any shampoo.
Normal Scalp
If you never have an overwhelming presence of oily substance or dandruff, it is because your scalp type is normal. This scalp does not require much care other than keeping an adequate balance in fortifying and hydrating.
To keep the scalp healthy, for starters begins with taking shower. By showering it helps in removing the pores that are clogged and this keeps the scalp healthy, with the help of shampoo. Exfoliation is quite important to ensure that the presence of dead cells within the hair is dealt with. This should be done at least a few times a week.
There is a lot of misunderstanding among many guys as they think that using shampoo every time they go for a bath cleans their hair or is good for their hair but this is far from the truth. Consistent use of shampoo dries out the oily presence resulting hair excessively drying up this is most likely for men that have a dry scalp. Using a natural shampoo can be an alternate but it completely depends on the nature and condition of your hair. For more details as to whether to use a shop or not consult a doctor.
Shampoo isn’t enough to give you the look that you deserve. Unlike a shampoo, a natural conditioner works differently for your hair, as it doesn’t wash away the grime & sebum but only ensures the nourishment of the scalp and hair leaving the hair to be strong, shiny and healthy. Depending on the nature of your scalp should you choose the routine to use the conditioner for acquiring the best results.
Whether you’re taking a hot shower or drying your hair with heat never exceed the limit of the heat more than the room temperature as that would strip away the essential presence of oils in your scalp & hair leading to dryness and damaging the quality of your hair. Make sure that you leave your hair slightly moisturized or damp to maintain the quality of the hair.
Most of you out there rub your towel really hard on the head in an effort to quickly dry up, this act of aggressively scrubbing your hair can be a major cause to the excessive breakage of hair especially if they are too dry. So the next time you get out of the shower, make sure that you scrub your hair gently.
