1. Avoid Hair Bands

I love to throw my hair up as much as the next girl, but I hate the feeling of pulling out my hair tie and feeling nearly half of the hair on my head falling out. If you’re the same way, avoid putting your hair up. Hair ties will only cause breakage and will eventually start to make your hair thin out, faster than you may think.

2. Stop Putting Your Hair up

A lot of women these days have found new alternatives to hair ties, however, even putting your hair up can be pretty terrible for your hair, no matter the type of hair tie you use. Pulling your hair back tightly will cause just as much hair loss as tying it up tightly, so just avoid it altogether.

3. Condition, Condition, Condition

Most women can’t imagine even going a day without conditioning, and that’s the way that it should be. If you notice that your hair’s not exactly in the best shape that it once was, start conditioning more thoroughly. It’s essential to keeping your hair healthy and avoiding hair loss.

4. Avoid Too Much Product

Although you may think you need it, hair products will be the death of your hair. In the long run, would you rather your hair be a little less cooperative or would you rather that you start going bald? The fewer products you put in your hair, the healthier your hair will be, and your hair will show the difference!

Embrace your individuality and transform your look by trying out a unique shade. Did you know that green hair is associated with nature, creativity, and growth? So go ahead, experiment with this bold hair color to represent a new phase in your life, waiting to blossom like a fresh spring leaf.

5. Use Less Heat

If you can, avoid using heat whenever possible. The more heat you apply to your hair, the more damage you’ll see, which will eventually lead to thinner hair. Skip the blow dryer or flat iron a couple of days a week to give your hair a little bit of time to rejuvenate and heal itself.

6. Use a Mask or Intensive Treatment

Conditioner isn’t enough to save your hair. Make sure to spend at least one day a week giving your hair some extra TLC with a mask or conditioning treatment that is sure to revitalize your hair and make it look brand new. It will help slow down hair loss and you’ll be back to healthy hair in no time!

7. Wash with anti-Dandruff Shampoo

If you’re still having issues, try twitching to anti-dandruff shampoo, even if you don’t have dandruff. It has an active ingredient in it that is said to stimulate the hair follicles and encourage hair growth. If you’re experiencing pretty bad hair loss, try this tip next time.

Yup follow this tips religiously for healthy beautiful hair

What's good also is using garlic shampoo and I know eww garlic. Is it going to smell like it? No not at all it makes your hair follicles stronger

Sorry for the typos *? *hot

Ladies...what we PUT into our bodies is paramount some that I know of are green tea, biotin, the B vitamins, and vitamins A, C, and E. Stock up by eating more whole grains, beans, carrots, and spinach, hope this helps someone xo

Eat a balanced diet, exercise, de-stress (yoga, reading etc) @Bindi, you're right, if your hair loss alarming go to your Drs and get blood tests.

If you're gonna use hair ties, opt for scrunchies, which have the same amount of hold as hair grips but they are covered in fabric, so that when you go to let your hair down, you don't damage as many hairs. There are some super cute scrunchies out there

Would braids be considered a better alternative to wearing hair up. My hair is long and thick and it gets hit in the summer and I don't like it in my face. I can't cut my hair too short because I have a fuller rounder face.

Living here in South Florida is HOT I have to pull my hair back if not my neck gets sweaty and so my hair gets wet and gross from my sweaty neck! I don't use heat to dry my hair. I let it air dry. And I use Redken shampoo and conditioner. It makes a HUGE difference with curly, frizzy hair. And I've also noticed that the shampoo and conditioner I use I have less hair loss in the shower too!! I would have handfuls of hair fall out in the shower before I swapped to good hair products.

I have been slowly losing hair right from the follicles for a few years ago & I haven't figured out how to stop/slow or regain (if possible) the healthy amount of hair that I had in my teen years. While I do have just past shoulder length hair, I usually have it loose or I take an alligator clip (oversized), twist my hair loosely and then clamp my hair to get a loose "pony tail" look. It keeps my hair from getting in my way and keeps it off my neck in hot weather. The only time I use pony tail elastics is when I put my hair in a loose braid for bedtime, as well as the only hair elastics I use are fabric coated & it is put on with only 3 loops at the end of the braid. I had no idea that dandruff shampoo would maybe help out with my hair loss so I will pick up a bottle the next time I grocery shop. Thanks for the tip.
