Weekly Hair Regime for Long and Glossy Hair

Planning makes the execution easier, and you will be kept motivated with the results you will see in the first few weeks itself. Just like your body, even your hair needs time out to de-stress and rejuvenate After all it is an extension of your body!

A hair care regime in simple words is a hair care and nurturing system that helps you achieve the desired results with help from your daily diet and water intake. An established routine will make sure that you are on the right track towards long and glossy natural hair.

Here is a look at some weekly regimes that will help you in the process:

  • Clean your hair three times a week and never go without washing them for over a week. Do not shy away from water, contrary to what we have been led to believe, water is actually good for the hair and the preservation of the hair strand. 
  • Deeply condition your hair at least once a week by applying natural deep conditioners for natural hair or natural deep conditioners for black hair and apply moist heat with the help of a warm and wet towel or sitting under the dryer for the nutrients to get absorbed by the hair and scalp. 
  • Moisturize your hair everyday of the week, or at least four days in a week with a water-based moisturizer, preferably with aloe vera. Make sure that the second or third ingredient on the ingredients list is water. 
  • Try to take out some time to apply oils like coconut oil, almond oil or olive oil after heating them a little. Let the oil remain for at least 30 minutes or an hour and wash it off with your regular shampoo followed by the conditioner. If you do not have any outing planned, try and leave the oil overnight before washing. It does wonders for the hair and locks in the very essential moisture within the hair. 

It is also advisable to undergo protein treatments once a month if your hair has suffered a lot of damage. Hairs care regimes, though a little demanding are the best thing that you can do for your hair. Utilize weekends for pampering your hair and you will be rewarded with improved length and gloss in the long run.
