Healthy Hair Care (online source)

So looking after hair or hair care is as important as looking after any other part of the body. As one keeps a daily routine to clean the body, hair too should be cleaned the same way. The longer the hair, the more care they require. As dust and dirt stick to hair they require more care when it comes to cleaning and it should be in one's daily routine. Hair is the crown of the body. It does not matter how beautiful you are if you neglect your hair. Like skin, hair too has different type as normal, dry and oily and as the skin has different complexion, hair have different texture as kinky, coily, curly or wavy.

First of all, eating healthy nutritional food rich of iron and protein is must for healthy hair. A balanced diet is good and a must for the entire body. One should wash hair properly with a good shampoo, which is their hair type as for dry hair a shampoo that is specially made for dry hair should be used. Wash the hair thoroughly; no traces of shampoo or conditioner should be left on the hair or scalp. Hot oil massage is very useful for the scalp and hair. It improves the blood circulation and helps the hair grow so it should be done at least once in a weak.

Coconut and olive oil are very good to use for hair massage, but if you wants you can even mix them in equal proportion and use. A mixture of olive oil and castor oil is very useful for dry, falling hair. If you feel that your hair needs an extra boost, you may also want to consider adding a hot oil treatment or hair mask to your hair care routine. Dry hair tends to be thin and rough. It is susceptible to thinning, damage, breakage and hair loss. Good hair care should be started at home. With proper care and attention you can restore its vitality, health and moisture-rich sheen. The primary aim is to replenish the oil and the moisture in the hair.

Here are Ten essential must-dos of great hair care.

1. Use the right hare care products for your specific hair type.

2. Get a trim every 6 to 8 months.

3. Use hair care products containing moisturizing ingredients.

4. Shampoo your hair only when it is dirty.

5. Turn to a professional for all of your hair care needs.

6. Use professional, natural conditioning hair coloring systems.

7. Stick with one hair care regimen.

8. Add more water, veggies and fruits to your daily diet.

9. Choose natural hair color that compliments your style.

10. Use a wide-toothed comb to come natural hair when your hair is wet.

Lyfe’s regal bone structure that mirrors how royal she looks in tribal prints, comes from an enviable mix of her parents’ Indian, Portuguese, African American and Caucasian heritage. There is not a cell of blandness in Lyfe from her arms of beads and ethnic bangles to her identification with the book, Women who Run with the Wolves, where females are celebrated for their strong spirits rather than the American archetype of the dainty woman. In what Lyfe calls her “Jackie O” moment, with bold white oversized round shades, she says that she loves older women and can’t wait to look back and laugh at it all. She is already as a single mom at 25, wise beyond her years, and commanding in her elegant head wraps and chains.”I don’t like to look at things as being difficult, I look at my journey as it just is,” Lyfe says, which is particularly inspiring coming from someone whose parents lost custody of her and her siblings while growing up.

Hardly the ugly duckling that Lyfe claims she has been in her family, adversity has brought her to where she is now. She is perceptably sophisticated in silk wrap dresses with chunky clip-on earrings and confident in her destiny to be the mother of Mason, who Lyfe feels has taught her love in the purest form. Fortune would have it that her grandparents, who brought her up, taught her that the woman can be the man and the man the woman in a relationship. Lyfe will never be “suzie homemaker,” she states, with her sharp focus on becoming a holistic healer and her passion for dance, poetry and whatever creative force makes her tic in the moment. Her grandfather was “the greatest man ever,”Lyfe feels, “he is the woman” in that he gave her all she needed to appreciate herself, including being comfortable enough to know her pain.
