Hair care: 5 tips to pamper your hair during lockdown

These days of confinement at home represent a break for our bodies, as our skin and hair are not exposed to external agents such as pollution, sun, or wind. Let's take advantage of these days to pamper our hair with extra care:

  • Avoid washing your hair daily: It's not recommended to wash your hair every day, as this can strip the scalp of its natural oils and lead to dryness. Ideally, you should space out washes to maintain its natural balance.
  • Enhance your natural texture: Embrace your hair's natural texture and avoid frequent use of heat tools such as straighteners or dryers, as they can weaken the hair fiber.
  • Use products suitable for your hair type: Use a shampoo suited to your hair type and apply nourishing masks at least once a week. There are also color-depositing masks that help maintain the shine and vibrancy of your hair color between washes.
  • Touch up your color safely at home: If you regularly dye your hair at the salon, it is advisable to limit touch-ups at home to the roots only to avoid damaging the color and the hair fiber.
  • Deep hydration with hair oils: It helps restore shine and softness to hair. You can use commercial hair oils or olive oil. To do this, dampen your hair from the mid-lengths to the ends with warm water, apply a generous amount of oil, wrap it in a warm, damp towel, leave it on for 30 minutes, and then rinse in the shower. The result is nourished and shiny hair.
