Raise your hand if you’ve spent hundreds of dollars a month getting your hair done. You shave off a few dollars from grocery money or forgo paying a bill just to get that straight-out-of-the-chair look. And although your hairstylist may give you tips on how to achieve the same thing in the comfort of your own home, you don’t have confidence in your ability. But the truth is, you can.
The key to healthy and beautiful hair at home is the product. The best products make the best hair! You can purchase quality products at a salon or beauty supply, or you can make your own from natural ingredients.
In addition to good products, you need to make sure that you give your locks a trim every 6-10 weeks. This will ensure that you grow healthy, strong hair. Allowing hair to become dry and split will only halt the growing process because ends will break off and can split up to the scalp.
Biotin supplements can also help to increase the strength and growth of hair and can be found at local health food stores.
