Hair Care Tips for Long, Straight Hair

Long, luscious hair can bring out a beautiful version of you, and enhance your personality if it’s well-maintained. We, as one of the leading hair oils and hair colour brands in India without ammonia, are aware of how tiring and difficult it can get to manage long straight hair, while maintaining its health as well as smoothness. 

Taking care of long hair requires extra effort and commitment. So, if you’re willing to put in the extra work to ensure well-maintained and healthy long, straight hair, here are few effective tips for you: 

Opt for a mild shampoo 

Use a mild shampoo that doesn’t have chemical agents, like ammonia or peroxide, since these agents deteriorate the quality of your straight hair, in the long run, making it brittle. And remember, you aren’t supposed to over-wash your long hair. 

Don’t brush wet hair 

Brushing wet hair can lead to stretching and breaking of your hair strands. So, if you want to brush your straight long hair, make sure your hair is dried out properly, and then slowly untangle the knots using your fingers or a wide-toothed comb. 

Oil your hair once or twice a week 

Oiling your hair regularly, once or twice a week, is extremely important because it keeps your hair well-nourished and healthy for a long time. So, if you have long hair, you must ensure to oil it regularly with natural black hair oil, so that it remains healthy and shiny. Try out our Vasmol Black Hair Oil, if you’re looking for a premium product that not only keeps your long hair well-nourished and prevents premature greying, but also acts as a sunscreen to protect your hair. 

Don’t use too many styling tools 

Don’t go for too many styling tools - don’t overdo it, when it comes to styling your hair. Keep your hair care as well as hair styling routine simple. Think of hairstyling as more of an extension of your look. Too much use of these tools can be harsh for your long, straight hair, making it brittle and frizzy. 

Trim split ends regularly 

Since long, straight hair is susceptible to split ends, make it a habit to trim your split ends on a regular basis. It will allow your hair to grow evenly. 

Utilize the magic of home remedies 

There are various types of Ayurvedic herbs and other home remedies that not only nourish your hair but also give it a natural shine, like eggs, methi, aloe vera, amla, and onion juice. So, every now and then, you should try out any of these remedies at home to keep your scalp and hair healthy. We have immense faith in the magic of Ayurvedic herbs, which is evident in our practice of using herbs like Amla, Methi, Bhringraj, and Hibiscus, in our range of hair oil as well as natural black hair colour products.

Don’t wear hairbands that pull at the root 

Don’t wear hairbands that pull at the root of your long hair. Such bands can make your hair strands weak, thereby making them more susceptible to damage or breakage.  

Blow-dry your hair at a low heat setting 

When you use a blow dryer, keep the heat level lower than usual because overheating your long hair can make your hair dry, brittle and frizzy. 

These tips can work wonders for anyone with long hair who wants to keep it well-maintained and healthy. So, follow these tips to ensure that you meet the needs of your long, straight hair without any compromise on its health.
