How To Take Care of Your Natural Hair During Quarantine

Is your hair staring to get frizzy, too long, or losing its soft touch? Well, you’re not alone! Most girls in quarantine are going through the same dilemma. It can be difficult to keep up with your hair routine if you are not able to see your hair dresser or go buy your favorite hair products. There is no need to have a bad hair day everyday during quarantine! There are many things you can do in order to keep your hair healthy during this time. Use these tips to help take care of it while you’re stuck inside! 

Hair Mask

Hair masks are a new popular routine that many girls are taking part in. Hair masks are perfect for keeping your natural hair healthy! They can moisturize your hair, sooth your scalp, help damaged hair, and trigger hair growth. You can order a hair mask online or you can be creative and make your own! One easy one to try to make t home only uses 3 simple ingredients, which are, coconut oil, honey, and yogurt. You might have never thought to put these things in your hair but trust me, it’ll work! 

Trim The Ends

If your hair is getting way too long and the ends are not looking their best, then give them a trim! Trimming the ends of your hair can get rid of split ends and also help your hair grow. You do not need to be a professional hair stylist to do this, all you will need is some scissors and hair clips to section off your hair. You will want to split your hair up into thin sections in order to get an overall even trim. Your natural hair will look cleaner and you wont have to worry about all those split ends!

Use Moisturizing Shampoo/Conditioner

Your natural hair might be dry and frizzy, which is super common. Using a moisturizing shampoo or conditioner could do the trick though! You might need to experiment with different brands and types of shampoos to find the best fit for your hair. Shampoos and conditions can make the biggest difference in your hair. After you let them sit in your hair for a few minutes in the shower, let your har dry and see the amazing results. Your hair is going to feel smooth and refreshed after this. You can try getting a shampoo or conditioner with coconut oil, which is personally my favorite. This will give you instant results after using it. If you can’t figure out what the right product is for your hair, don’t worry, you can always ask your hair dresser or even a friend what they use. 

Go Heat-Free

Your natural hair should be something to embrace! If you have lots of curls, let them do their thing! Everyone’s natural hair is beautiful in its own way and should be taken care of correctly. Heat can damage your hair and many people might not realize how much heat they put on their hair everyday. Just for a few days, try not to straighten or curl your hair. Also try not to use a hair dryer and let it dry naturally. You will see after a few days that you hair will look healthier.  To prevent heat damage, you can also try a heat protectant product that be serve as a barrier for your hair. You will still be applying heat to your hair but there will be less damage with a product like this. 

Use Dry Shampoo

A lot of girls go a few days without washing their hair in order for it to stay healthy. Using dry shampoo is a great way to keep your natural hair looking clean and healthy throughout the day. If you spray it towards the top and routs of your hair, then it can make it look less shiny or greasy. This is perfect if you are staying home during quarantine and don’t feel the need to wash it everyday. Dry shampoo is another way of using product for your hair and keeping it looking healthy and fresh. Nobody want to be waking around with their hair feeling gross and unwashed. Dry shampoo is the way to go right now to keep your hair looking great!
