External Factors Affecting Your Hair Damage

Hair is one of important determiners for you to appear attractive or not. With your beautiful hair, you will easily appear better looking, arrange you hair, and change the style you want, so, it will build your confident. Moreover if your profession deals mostly with public affair that you should look attractive, it will be very pity if your hair is not in a good condition, although only one piece.

There are many factors that are responsible for hair damage. Those factors, however, can be classified into two categories, namely internal factor and external factor. Internal factor that influences hair condition is genetic factor such as the type and condition you have possessed since you were born. This factor is difficult to be solved, and you need not to worry about it. In other word, you should pay extra attention on external factors that come from outside your body for example environment, treatment, disease, and food or nutrition.

 

How To Stop Hair Breakage And Damage

Some of the best products on the market for dry, damaged, afro, or chemically treated hair are Ojon, John Frieda, Redken, and Beauty 4 Ashes hair care products. When it comes to salon quality products, this is how the rankings break down by ethnicity.

Caucasian & European Hair Type: Redken, Paul Mitchell, Beauty 4 Ashes

African American and Afro Caribbean: Beauty 4 Ashes, Ojon, Nexxus

Hispanic & Bi-Racial Hair: Beauty 4 Ashes, Ojon, Tigi

 

As you can see, your hair care product of choice depends on your hair type, which was determined while you were still in your mother’s womb. I have supplied several of my stylists with each of the above brands for my hair boutiques in the United Kingdom, United States, Scandinavia, & Japan at one time or another. It would take to long to tackle each product, so I have dedicated this article to Afro Caribbean, curly, or African American hair care. Here is the down low on the top three products for Afro Caribbean, curly, or African American hair.

If you are not particular about a product being all-natural, try Paul Mitchell. Paul Mitchell products are oldies and some are goodies, such as the Awapuhi shampoo. A slightly better alternative is to opt for Ojon and Beauty 4 Ashes. Ojon products are decent and will not leave your hair dry. And, Beauty 4 Ashes products work excellent for those with kinky afro, curly, wavy, and chemically treated, fine hair. Ojon is not all natural, but they is pretty good. They are available online. Beauty 4 Ashes is available online as well. You can visit their UK store at mybeauty4ashes.com and their States store at www.discoverb4a.com.

If you have Afro Caribbean, curly, or African American hair, remember that your hair needs moisture. Do not let anyone tell you different. By switching to higher quality products, your hair won’t be greasy, it actually will be moisturized. Here are some good rules of thumb to stick with when making your next purchase:

*All-natural products are superior

*Look at ingredients, if the product contains parabens, which can lead to cancer, Just Say No.

*Price does not make the product. Always look for quality ingredients like Shea, Jojoba, Oil, Sunflower, Castor, Grapeseed, Avocado, and Aloe Vera

*Do not over process your hair with excess heat, straightening combs, and super hot blow dryers.
