Hello, Hydration
Drinking water works wonders when it comes to keeping our bodies healthy - and our hair is no exception. Stay hydrated to enjoy a healthy scalp and stimulate growth, all while bidding farewell to unwelcome split ends. Try to drink around 8 glasses of water a day to see real results.
[Un]Conditional Love
When it comes to conditioner, you might not find “the one” straight away. It’s a little like dating really. When you find the one that works for you, you’ll know. Set aside some time for a weekly deep conditioning treatment. This will give your strands a beauty boost by way of protein and moisture – just work the product into the mid-lengths and ends. Remember, any appliances you use should be kind to your hair – browse Revamp’s styling collection to discover must-have hair tools infused with keratin, argan oil and coconut oil for smooth, sleek locks.
Hot-Headed
Ever find yourself getting a little heat happy when it comes to styling? It’s easy to get carried away when you’re trying to achieve a sleek, straight look or playful curls – but it’s important to protect your hair before, during and after. Be selective when choosing the temperature you use on your hair – for instance, if you have finer hair, a lower temperature will give you a lasting result without causing unnecessary damage. Take a look at the Revamp Progloss Touch Digital Ceramic Hair Straightener – it lets you choose any temperature between 80 and 235 degrees Celcius. Oh, and remember to spritz your strands with a heat protection spray prior to picking up the hairdryer and hit the cool shot button before putting it down.
Silk Saviours
Bid farewell to flat, tired hair and swap your standard pillowcases for silk alternatives instead. Why? We’re glad you asked. Traditional cotton cases often tug on your hair while you sleep, whereas silk versions won’t. Their non-absorbent surface will mean your hair can maintain its natural oils too. Ultimately, breakage, frizz and tangles will be things of the past. Dreamy.
Keep It Clean
Not sure how often you should be reaching for the shampoo bottle? Well, it can depend on where you live and the lifestyle you have. If you live in a humid climate or somewhere where there’s a lot of pollution, you’ll likely need to wash your hair frequently – the same applies if you’re someone who works out a lot. If you live somewhere rural with lots of fresh air, you can often enjoy longer breaks between washes.
Food For Thought
Your plate plays a major role when it comes to the shine, volume and length of your hair. Make sure yours is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids and protein to encourage healthy growth going forward.
