Black Hair Care Tips to Remember

 1. Don’t overwash.

We may have said this a bunch of times before, and we’re going to say it again. There’s no problem with washing your hair. But when overdone, it could strip your hair off of its natural oils and minerals, making it dry, dull, and even become white. If you can’t afford to skip a wash (no thanks to our country’s hot and humid climate), limit hair washing to once a day as much as possible.

Editor’s tip: Keep your black hair healthy at all times. Use the TRESemmé Detox & Nourish Shampoo and TRESemmé Detox & Nourish Conditioner help bring back lost nutrients in your hair.

2. Don’t underwash.

When we say don’t overwash we don’t mean for you to go for several days without washing your hair. If you leave your hair for longer periods without washing, excess oil and dirt will build up on your scalp, block your pores, and lead to dandruff.

Minimizing the use of heated styling tools can help protect your hair against dryness and brittleness.

Exposure to heat could leave your locks damaged, dry, and brittle. Before blow-drying, straightening, or curling your hair, make sure you always spray heat protectant on your tresses to prevent heat damage.

Editor’s tip: Don’t forget to spray TONI&GUY Heat Protection Mist on your hair before styling. This product is an expert favorite that will protect your hair from heat up to 230 degrees!

4. Loosen your ties.

While we all love ’em braids and buns, frequent tugging and pulling can also cause hair breakage. Give your hair a break from time to time by tying it a little more loosely or leaving it down.

5. Pamper your hair with nourishment.
