Beauty-id’s Surefire Tips for Great Hair

Few of us have hours to spend getting our hair just right every morning, but there are a few basics—from lifestyle choices to using the right products—that will give your hair the cared-for look it deserves!

The first golden rule is to eat right. A diet high in saturated fats and processed foods is not doing your hair any favors, or your body for that matter! Eat greens, nuts, berries, fresh fish and drink plenty of water on a regular basis.




• Visit your salon every few weeks for a trim. This will not only keep your hair in prime condition, but your stylist is the best person to detect any hair care problems you might have and offer the appropriate solutions. Getting a haircut also does wonders for your self-confidence—who doesn’t feel great walking out of the salon?
• Don’t weigh down your hair with too many products; remember, less is more! If you have oily locks go ahead and shampoo daily, but for normal or dry hair restrict yourself to every few days at the most. Choose a gentle, frequent-use shampoo (Beauty-id’s Vitamin + Kiwi shampoo, for example) and remember to condition the tips. Keep your styling products to a minimum as well.
• Brush your hair with a natural-bristle brush every day, and if you can, massage your scalp. This stimulates hair growth.
• Protect your hair from the sun. This means either a hat or products that shield your locks from UV rays.
• Keep blow-drying to a minimum and air-dry your hair with your fingertips instead whenever possible.
• Don’t pull your hair back tightly with elastic bands or clips on a regular basis. This will lead to hair breakage and in some cases to excessive hair loss.
