We don’t tell you to use nothing but a shampoo. We don’t want your hair to suffer because you suddenly throw half of your products away. The minimalist approach to hair care aims to provide what’s essential to make the hair grow strong, healthy and stunning. In other words, you must seek the best substances and avoid the things that cause damage. Learn how to deliver the necessary minimum for the maximum effects and super-healthy, lovely strands.
Minimalist hair care? This approach really pays off!
What does this approach mean in reality? You use just the necessary, valuable products that really aid your strands. At the same time, you cut down on things that have a harmful effect.
Minimalist hair care: what products to use?
- A quality, natural shampoo that cleanses and conditions the scalp not causing dryness or irritations. It’s based on natural substances and free from foam-forming agents such as SLS.
- The right conditioner for your hair type to avoid overburdening or frizz. While shopping, choose a product that matches your hair type and provides the essential nutrients for a lovely look. Remember that easily weighed-down hair will be happy if you use a lightweight leave-in. On the other hand, damaged strands need an oil-rich conditioner that both repairs and prevents future damage.
- Hair mask is a hair-care classic and an uber-intensive treatment you can easily do at home. The best hair mask works like an in-salon procedure.
- A quality organic pure oil – this is one of the must-have you can use on the entire body, not just hair. Always buy cold-pressed, unrefined oils, ideally certified organic. Add pure oil to your hair mask, blend it with a conditioner or use it alone on the hair ends regularly to keep splitting away. Which hair oil to pick? It’s great if you choose the right one for your hair porosity type but there’s one that works well on all types – argan oil which is the only oil boasting the optimal proportion of fatty acids.
Minimalist hair care: what to avoid?
- The list is very long but let’s focus on the top wrongdoers:
- you use the hot air blast while blow-drying.
- you use a flat iron.
- you don’t use any protection against the sun or pollution.
- you harshly towel-dry or pull strands while brushing.
We guarantee that once you start avoiding the above, your hair will start getting better – stronger, healthier and prettier.
