Answer:
Taking care of your hair is easy and simple if you do it properly and on a regular basis. Here are the basic steps of having healthy long hair.
1. Wash your hair every day. Washing your hair is very important. Your hair can get greasy even if it means skipping just one shower day. Make sure to scrub your scalp thouroughly. If you happen to find white, flaky speks in your hair, you have dandruff. Dandruff is very common and appears because you are not washing your hair enough. Dandruff can easily be removed from your head with dandruff shampoo. To prevent it from happening again, wash your hair every day!
2. Use correct products. If you are past age 10, it's time to move on from kid's shampoo. Choosing shampoo can be difficult because of the many choices, but narrowing it down will be easy. First take a good look at your hair and decide what it needs most: shine, moisture, etc. Then go to the shampoo section and choose what you need. You will also need conditioner, which helps smoothen out your hair. Choose the same brand and kind of conditioner as your shampoo. Remember, if you don't like the results of your shampoo and conditioner, you can always try another.
3. Drying. How you dry your hair depends on how you want it to look. For more healthier hair, let it air-dry. Every now-and-then, toss your head foward and back a couple of times to add more volume. Another option would be to blow-dry your hair. Choose a strong blow-dryer. The air you choose doesn't matter that much, but the healthier you want your hair, the colder the air should be. But don't worry, hot air will not damage your hair. When you blow-dry, dry all layers and toss your head upside-down for more volume. Alot of people like to braid their hair or wear curlers overnight. That is a good way to dry it too, if you want curly or crimped hair. (PS. If you want crimped hair, braid about 8 braids super tight and in the morning take the braids out and brush out your hair.)
That's it!
