ღHair mistakes you probably dont know your makingღ

So iv just bought the Cosmopolitan magazine and iv come across something that i can relate to but i didnt know it was bad for me to do this.

I thought i would share thease mistakes with you so you dont make them aswell.

You wait forever between cuts

So if your like me i wait for about 2-3 months before getting a hair cut. Now i know this is bad but to be quite fair i didnt see the point in going every month or so because my hair dosent seem to grow that fast during the months...But now i see the reason why you should go every six weeks or so!

 Leaving your hair cut too long makes it very hard for the stylist to follow the exact hairstyle you had on your last cut so if you had that perfect style that you loved then they wont be able to get it exact like last time. You should aim to get your hair cut every 6 weeks or so to prevent split ends and to keep the style that you love.

You wash your hair every single day

I wash my hair every other day to keep it healthy and clean. To be quite honist i dont really see the point in washing your hair everyday.

Washing your hair everyday with shampoo and conditioner strips your hair and scalf of its healthy oils lus making them super dry!. You can keep thease oils on by alternating your shampoo every other day with a volumizing conditioner.

  

Giving yourself a blowout on the hottest setting possible.

I never us the highest setting on my hairdryer as i feel its just too much heat and that its just not healthy for my hair.

Using the hairdryer on the highest setting fries your hair and leave it frizzy. Use the warm or cool setting (Medium or low setting)
on your hair to prevent this. It will take alittle longer to dry your hair but which is better...Frizzed hair or night and healthy hair?

You brush your hair while it's still wet.

I have to admit, I didnt know that brushing your hair when it was wet was bad for your locks. 

According to Cosmopolitan magazine, You cant really start shaping your hair until it is 80% dry so doing it before this time is a total waste of time. If you start brushing and styling your hair before this time your hair strands snap, Leaving you with damaged hair.

 

You mix hairspray and hot irons

I have never done this because im just too scared to but know i know that it damages your hair i deffinatly wont try it.

You know that sound you hear when you spray your hair with hairspray while curling or straightning, Thats your hair frying. According to Cosmopolitan, when the hairspray come in contact with the heat, The alcohol in the hairspray burns. A thermal protector instead of hairspray is reccomended. Only use hairspray to hold your hair in place!

You OD on "Moisture".

According to Cosmopolitan magazine, The lure of a product which claims to give super-hydrating power is undeniable. If you use too much of thease products they can leave your hair lifeless and weighed-down. Its reccomended that you use a dab each morning and pay special attention to your ends since their the oldest and most damaged part of your hair.

You dye all-over just to fix your roots

If your like me, Everytime you need a touch up on your roots, You do the whole of your head.

Really you should just touch up the colour at the roots so you dont risk over-processing

 

You neglect your bangs

Bangs effect the way your face shape looks. Dont hold off getting your bangs cut until your next hair trim. According to Cosmopolitan magazine, most salons offer a complimentary bang trim. Hair experts reccomend going to get your bangs cut atleast once every three weeks for a shape-up .

Thanks for reading and i hope you found this post helpful.

Stay Beautiful
