Strengthen and repair your hair with the proper care and ingredients

Strengthen and repair your hair with the proper care and ingredients

Is your hair a sad reflection of what you want it to be? There’s no reason to despair or give up. You can have the hair of your dreams with some proper care and a lot of great hair nutrition. 

That’s right! Your hair needs special nutrition and proper care to look and live its best life. If your hair is not living up to its potential, you can help it with all-natural products that are filled with healthy hair ingredients, and by using the following tips.

Using the right ingredients

Learn what ingredients your hair craves and how they can help boost your hair’s natural radiance and give it the gorgeous glow it deserves. The Hair La Vie shampoo and conditioner contains some great ingredients that give your hair revitalizing strength.

Look for Marula oil. It is easily absorbed, which is what makes it the latest and greatest thing for skin and hair products. It’s rich in protein, vitamin C and E, amino acids, fatty acids, antioxidants, and more. 

Oleic acid is an omega-9 fatty acid that makes up the majority of Marula oil. It’s really effective at moisturizing hair because it is absorbed so well. With the addition of the palmitic acid in marula oil, your hair gets the moisture it needs to stay plump and healthy.

Find products that also contain vitamins C and E, which are very effective and powerful antioxidants. This means they help fight the damaging and aging effects of free radicals and oxidation. 

Research proves that oxidative stress plays a major role in your hair’s aging process. Everything from graying hair to a decrease in hair production are symptoms of aging hair that antioxidants fight against.

If your hair’s strength is not what it should be, or if you’re experiencing either male or female pattern baldness, then saw palmetto is for you. This type of hair loss is believed to be caused when testosterone is converted to dihydrotestosterone, a hormone that causes you to lose hair. A small study proved the benefits of saw palmetto on this type of baldness.

Keratin has been a hair product staple for a very long time and for a good reason. It’s a moisturizer that’s very similar to natural hair, which penetrates deep into the shaft to add volume and shine.

Condition regularly and deeply

Skipping a shampoo once in a while is great for your hair, and it’s the best way to get some of today’s hottest styles. While skipping shampoo is good, the skipping conditioner isn’t. If you’re doing a no-poo or a co-wash day, make sure you’re giving your hair a healthy dose of moisturizing conditioner that restores anything that’s been lost.

Deep conditioning regularly with a hair mask is another way you can treat your hair to the ingredients it craves to give it the bounce and body you want. If you’re buying a hair mask, make sure to look for one with no SLS or parabens. Another great option is making one yourself from fresh ingredients – give honey a try!

Keep it cool

Curling irons, blow dryers, flat irons, and any other hair tool you use that uses heat to style your hair is slowly destroying the structure of your hair and zapping moisture. Play around with some cool styling options, like sleeping in braids, letting your hair air dry, wearing your hair up, or even going old-school and sleeping in curlers. 

While it might not be possible to skip the heat every day, try giving your hair a break as much as possible to protect it.

Final thoughts

Transform your hair into the reflection of you that you want it to be. Nourishing and protecting your hair with the right ingredients and care is the best way to give it the strength it needs and the moisture it’s lacking. 

Select all-natural products that contain keratin, Marula oil, and the noted antioxidants, vitamins C and E. These compounds fuel your hair with moisture, which penetrates deep in the shaft and stays there. Results from these compounds happen pretty quickly, and they are amplified if you use them regularly. 

In addition to using the right products, staying away from heat will help improve your hair’s strength and moisture, allowing it to grow faster and longer. You don’t have to avoid heat entirely, but the more you can stay away, the better it is for your hair.
