We feel disappointed when our hair gets dirty too soon, so we feel the need to wash it more often. But this can work against us: the follicles are actively stimulated and the next day our hair appears unclean again.

Here are some great ideas to help you wake up with clean and gorgeous hair!

Use boiled or regenerated water

Regular tap water can be too hard, affecting your hair’s style. Swill your hair either in boiled or regenerated water, and it will still be clean the next day. The temperature should be about 38°С.

Ease off on the products

Nourishing products for thin and brittle hair can make it heavier and dirtier if they are used incorrectly. Carefully consider measures to avoid this: hair oils should be used a couple of times a week, while sprays and wheys can be used as needed in small amounts.

Brush your hair less often — and use a comb

When we brush our hair too often or touch it all the time it leads to the follicles working more actively. As a result, our hair gets dirty faster. Try to brush your hair less often, and use a comb instead of an ordinary paddle brush. Try to avoid touching your scalp with the comb or brush.

Natural styles

All hair-styling products speed up the process of hair getting unclean. If you want to make a ponytail or a bun, let it be more natural. If you don’t try to make every curl lie in perfect order with loads of hair spray, the next day you will have shining and clean hair.

Use shampoo without SLS

Shampoos containing SLS have been proved to be safe for people, but if you still feel that they dry your skin and your hair gets dirty too fast, you can use SLS-free versions. Such products are less foaming, but they work well for removing dirt from your hair. You just need to use them properly.

Lower the temperature

A dryer, curling iron, or straightener can also be the reason for unclean hair. High temperatures make the oil glands produce more secretions for the skin’s protection. 150°С-180°С is the perfect temperature for styling.

Head skin peeling

Peeling helps to remove dead cells and stubborn dirt. It also strengthens the follicles and stimulates hair growth. You can use homemade scrubs with proper ingredients.

Change your pillowcase more often

Pillowcases absorb the oils you use for your hair and skin. This makes them a good ground for malignant bacteria reproduction, making your hair unclean. Pillowcases should be changed at least once a week.

Protect your hair from freezing cold and heat

Wear a hat both in summer and in winter. Freezing cold and heat make your skin produce sebum as a method of protection. As a result, your hair roots become greasy. The ends, on the contrary, become too dry and brittle. You need to take care of your hair in every season.
