Healthy hair is not a myth, it exists! But you need to work for it, because it doesn’t happen just by itself, you have to do your part, make a place in your routine for its care and get used to taking care of it regularly, because we do not always do it and many times we are surprised to know that our hair doesn’t look as pretty as we would like.
We have already told you before that your hair is a part of you, and taking care of yourself is just a demonstration of the love you have for you (besides, who doesn’t like to pamper their hair? At Maka we love it!). Therefore, we remind you that you can read this article with 5 ways to have healthier hair so that you remember everything we mentioned and that you can include it in your routine for the remainder of May and start June with tons of power.
Let’s go back to the title of this article: how do I know if I need to take more care of my hair? It’s not always easy… We wish our hair could speak! You may not listen to it, but of course, it speaks to you. We just have to learn to understand it, and we are achieving that little by little, step by step, and with practice.
How do I know that my hair is healthy?
Let’s start by understanding that hair can be a reflection of who we are and all the changes or emotions we experience, so if you do not feel well or something with your health requires care, your hair will also manifest that, and it will show.
On the other hand, there are simpler signs that tell us that hair is healthy: it looks soft and very shiny in a natural way, either because you are doing a treatment regularly (like our moisturizing line) or because you avoid anything that can dry it out or mistreat it.
Also, the hair ends say a lot… Look at yours now! How do they look? Closed or a little more open? If they’re closed, then they’re hydrated, but if you see them open, we recommend you cut them a little regularly so you can say goodbye to dry parts. Also, try styling your natural hair or protect it from heat so it doesn’t dry out (learn how to care for your hair with a heat shield!).
One last sign that your hair is healthy is that it feels very manageable on contact, and it doesn’t matter what your hair type is. It’s all about getting the right products for you and you will see incredible changes (here is an article on how to take care of your natural curls to inspire you).
3 signs your hair needs better care
Warning: We wrote all this with the intention that you can realize that your hair needs all your love too. Just like we take care of our skin, nails, or smile, we should also take care of our hair, because we assure you that it is difficult to see it beautiful if we don’t mind about taking care of it.
It is very difficult? Not! It just takes effort and time, but isn’t everything like that in life? The important thing is that you will feel inspired when you see the result: radiant hair that will show all the love you put into it, and the occasional compliment that you are going to receive from your friends.
With that said, pay attention to these 3 signs:
# 1. It doesn’t look good. This seems obvious, but it is the biggest sign we need. Sometimes we look in the mirror and we don’t feel good about our hair because we know that we are not taking care of it as well as we could. Ways to take better care of it? Use products for your hair type, protect it from heat, and cut it regularly.
# 2. It feels very dry all the time. This can be due to different reasons, and remember that we have an article so you can say goodbye to dry hair. As you read it, remember that you should use a hydrating treatment that gives you the properties you need.
# 3. Even though you use the iron, curling iron, or blow dryer, it doesn’t look good. Here already our hair shouted “help”! We know that using the dryer, curling iron, or iron can leave us an incredible look, but if we do not use a thermal protector our hair can burn, so take a look at this article so that the thermal protector becomes your best friend.
