While we can’t avoid our haircuts, there isn’t a constant need to get treatments and spend tons of money just to keep your hair healthy. There are plenty of products and daily routines that can be easily adopted at home, making it more convenient to have the hair you want for the price you can afford.

Five Straightening and Maintenance Tips

Hair maintenance is important to hair health. While using the right products is important, it is also critical to know the dangers of constant use of heated tools. You can certainly use a straightener or curling iron without damaging your hair, and by following these tips avoiding heat damage to your hair is possible:

  1. Make sure you fully shampoo and condition your hair so that it is strong and reacts easily to the heating tools.
  2. Do NOT use a straightening or curling iron with wet hair.
  3. Be careful of the temperature set on your iron. It does not need to be the highest setting!
  4. Try using a heat protecting product before starting to straighten or curl your hair.
  5. Do not straighten or curl your hair every day because it increases the chances of heat damage by not allowing your hair any recovery time.
