    In fact, if you really want to take good care of your hair, the core is the three-piece linkage of "nourishing your scalp, caring for your hair, and adjusting your living habits." If any link is missing, it will be easy to achieve twice the result with half the effort. Many people buy thousands of washing and care products to no avail, and most of them fail to find out where their problems lie.

    Two years ago, I helped a best friend of mine who had her hair bleached three times to condition her hair. At that time, her hair was so brittle that it broke when pulled, and her scalp was oily and itchy every day. At first, she insisted on expensive hair masks and went to the barber shop for treatments every week. As a result, she lost more and more hair. Later, when I checked, I found out that her scalp already had mild seborrheic dermatitis. She spent money on hair care products and ignored them.

    Speaking of it, the scalp is like the soil where hair grows. No matter how good the soil is, the seedlings cannot grow. Here we are talking about the hotly debated issue of hair washing frequency. Some people say that you must wash your hair every day otherwise oil will clog the hair follicles and cause hair loss. Others say that washing too frequently damages the sebum film and the more you wash, the more oil you will get. I have tried it myself for more than half a year and I really don’t have a standard answer. If you have oily skin and you are outside every day in the summer. Running, getting oily hair after get off work, and insisting on not washing it, or suffering from folliculitis are all minor. If you have dry skin and can feel refreshed by washing it every three days in winter, there is no need to join in the excitement of washing it every day. The best rhythm is to be comfortable and have a scalp that is not oily, itchy, or painful. Another pitfall that many people fall into is applying conditioner and hair mask to the scalp. A fan complained to me before that he always had small pimples on his scalp. When asked, he did this. After stopping for less than half a month, most of the pimples disappeared and the oil on his head was reduced.

    After taking good care of the soil, you must also take good care of the hair that has grown out, otherwise it will be difficult to save if it gets damaged. Many businesses claim that their own hair masks can repair permed hair, but they are really just gimmicks. The damage caused by dyeing and perming is irreversible. The essential oil of the hair mask can at most fill the gaps in the hair cuticles and make the hair feel smoother. If the ends of the hair are really split, there is no other way but to cut it. In order to keep my hair long, I refused to cut my split ends for three months. In the end, the split ends ran up two centimeters along the hair shaft. Originally, I only needed to cut one centimeter. In the end, I had to cut off three centimeters, which was a loss at my grandma’s house. There is another topic that has been debated for a long time: Is it better to dry wet hair naturally or with a hair dryer? My own experience is that if you have short hair and the temperature is high in summer, you can dry it in ten minutes. Natural drying is indeed gentler. However, if you have long hair in winter, you can’t dry it for half an hour with wet hair. When the hair is wet, the hair scales are fully open, and it is more likely to become frizzy when it rubs against the sweater and pillow. Use the low setting and blow 20 centimeters away until it is 80% dry, and apply two drops of essential oil to the ends of your hair. The hair quality is much better than drying naturally.

    Finally, let me talk about the most easily overlooked thing. Hair care is really not just about the things on your head, but your living habits are the foundation. Last year, I worked on a project for less than half a month. I ate takeout that was heavy with oil and spicy food. Every time I washed my hair, the hair fell out into a ball the size of a quail egg. Later, I forced myself to go to bed before 11 o'clock, eat more dark green vegetables such as spinach and broccoli, drink a glass of milk and eat an egg every day, and in less than half a month, my hair loss was reduced by half. Also, don’t pull your hair too hard. I had a friend who wore her hair in a tight high ponytail every day to show off her face. There were small gaps on both sides of her hairline. Later, she changed to a loose, low-crotch hairdo, which left the broken hair for more than half a year before it slowly grew back.

    In fact, there are really not so many bells and whistles about hair care. Don’t always think about paying IQ tax to buy expensive products. Do the most basic things right first, and you will slowly see changes.
