Can I have Long, Beautiful, Healthy Hair?

YES YOU CAN!! Here is how: A Regular Trim Will Keep it Healthy.

Long hair: Some people love it some people don’t. Everyone has different preferences when it comes to hair length. Men usually think that long hair on a woman is the ONLY kind of style that looks good. Many women cling to their long locks for the same reason. Whatever the reasons, most people with long hair are adamant about keeping it long. This is a good thing, as long as the hair is HEALTHY!

The longer the hair is, the longer it's been exposed to the tortures we put our hair through every day. The sun, wind, blow-drying, pony-tail holders, harsh shampoos, smog, pillows, and even poor diet can all take their toll on hair. In order to keep your hair looking healthy, even if it's long, you MUST keep it trimmed.

On average, hair grows at a rate of about 1/2 inch per month, and typically the hair should be trimmed every 6-8 weeks to help maintain it healthy. Those of you who have a short cut and want to grow it out, it can be done! Just ask for a "clean-up". This means trimming only what is necessary every 6-8 weeks. Keep in mind that if you are hard on your hair, it may require more off the ends.

This brings us to the issue of split ends. Most everyone has them but it more of a common problem for those with long hair. Split-ends can be treated with protein rich conditioners to strengthen the hair, (I prefer Aquage Healing Conditioner) and with anti-frizz serums, like Aquage Ultra Shine Complex, that coat the hair and bind the ends back together temporarily. But sometimes, trimming is necessary to remove these splits before they get worse. With long, blunt-cut hair, trimming the ends of the hair is a simple matter of following the established line and removing the damaged ends. Yet with long-layered hairstyles, there is an alternative that works especially well.

Also keep in mind that if you choose to delay your cut because you want your hair to grow out, you will cause more damage. If there are split ends that are not properly dealt with, they will travel up the hair shaft and cause your hair to look frizzy, frayed and thinned out at the ends.

By keeping your hair trimmed on a regular basis, the result will be smoother, healthier looking hair with an awesome style!
