Have a healthy scalp and hair

Exercise and Healthy Scalp Massage

Exercise aids in helping the body function at optimal levels thereby ensuring the skin and scalp remain healthy which is important for hair growth.

Keep the scalp oiled with natural hair enriching products like coconut or jojoba oil. This will keep hair moisturized and prevent dandruff which inhibits healthy hair growth. Massage the oil into the scalp with the fingertips to stimulate and increase blood flow to the scalp to enhance the spread of essential nutrients to the hair.

Proper Hair Care

Wash and condition the hair regularly with natural hair products to avoid build up of dirt on the scalp which leads to unhealthy hair. Make sure to completely rinse out any shampoo residue. However, avoid washing hair excessively as it could cause the hair to become brittle. Always condition your hair after shampooing to restore luster and soften your hair. Use a leave-in conditioner occasionally to nourish your hair even more. Mashed ripe avocados make excellent natural hair conditioner

Proper Brushing and Hairstyles

Invest in good hair brushes. Do not over brush hair or brush it when it is wet as this will cause breakage. Brush only as necessary to help achieve the desired hairstyle.

The types of hairstyles also affect hair growth. Do not style hair in ways that pull hair too much especially at the hairline. This could cause a receeding hairline from hair breakage.

To maintain a healthy head of hair and promote new hair growth, it is important to have the right diet, hair grooming tools, and hair products. Healthy hair is achieved by treating hair gently to avoid breakage and picking out styles that do not strain the hair.
