Most common questions used to investigate
Do you use hot water to wash your hair?
Do you use conditioner?
Do you brush your hair throughout the day?
Do you take zinc supplements?
Common conclusions
You should avoid washing your hair with hot water because hot water strips moisture from your hair and dries it out so it is best to wash it with lukewarm or cool water. The cooler water is gentler on your hair and helps to seal in shine.
Conditioner is so beneficial because it is like moisturizer but for your hair. Using a conditioner can keep your hair hydrated and protected against potential damage. Skipping conditioner, especially habitually, will only make your hair parched and more fragile, so remember to condition every time you shampoo.
It is important to brush your hair a few times throughout the day to keep it from getting tangled but it is also important to keep brushes clean by removing accumulated hair in the bristles. To clean your brush, simply remove the hair within the bristles along with any leftover product, and scrub the brush with either a mixture of baking soda and water, or a small amount of shampoo and water.
You should start taking zinc supplement because zinc plays an important role in hair tissue growth and repair. It also helps keep the oil glands around the follicles working properly. Zinc supplements are most effective if they are taken at least one hour before or two hours after meals. You should know that taking more than 100 mg of supplemental zinc daily or taking supplemental zinc for ten or more years doubles the risk of developing prostate cancer.
