15 tips to take care of rebounded hair

1.Do not wet your hair for three days after the procedure. Yes, it means greasy hair and no swimming. The chemicals have to seep in and settle.

2.Do not tie your hair or put it on the back of your ears. The hair will be in a state where it acquires a shape.

3.When you sleep, make sure your hair is straight. You don’t want to wake up to weird shaped hair.


4.Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner after three days. Leave the conditioner on your hair for extra minutes.

5.Avoid usage of any heating tools. That means no blow drying too. If you are in a need of drying hair, then use the cool blast of air option.

6.Do not mess with your hair for at least six months – that means no hair coloring, no streaks, no highlighting. Your hair needs to relax after the high dose of straightening chemicals.

6.Have your hair trimmed on a regular basis. This
ensures your hair remains in top condition. Make sure there are no split ends. You don’t want it to travel up the length and deepen the damage.

7.Use cold water to wash your hair. Hot water will rob it of its moisture.

8.Make sure you wash away all the residue as anything left back will result in itching, hair fall and dandruff.

9.Use a wide toothed hair comb to separate the strands. Remove any tangles with great care. A wooden comb is preferable as plastic combs are known to create frizz due to static.

10.If your hair is not really greasy or oily, stay away from shampooing every day. You can try alternate days or try co-washing which means using conditioner as a shampoo and just rinsing it away.

11.Keep your hair safe from environmental factors – harsh sun rays, cold winds and the rains. Use a hat or an umbrella.

12.Apply a hair serum regularly. This creates a barrier between your hair and the outside and helps protect it better.

13.Use a leave in conditioner. This helps in retaining the moisture and keeps dryness and frizz away.

13.Use hair masks frequently or get hair spas done. Your hair needs moisture and nutrition.

14.In case you wet your hair due to rain, wash your hair like a regular wash as soon as possible. The salts and pollutants from rain water are highly damaging.

15.Follow a nutritious diet. A good diet consists of nuts, cashews, almonds and lots of fruits and vegetables. These are known to promote healthy hair.

To keep your hair healthy, it is important to use the right tools to groom it.

When to comb
*When hair is wet, always use a comb to remove knots and tangles. Brushing wet hair can cause breakage and other damage to the hair shafts, so always do your detangling with a comb.
*A comb is also useful on dry hair for smoothing and detangling. If hair has knots in it, it is advisable to use a comb to smooth it before brushing.
*Since a comb has only one row of teeth instead of multiple bristles like a brush, it provides better control and does not pull as much on the hair when it encounters a tangle.Once the tangles are removed, use a brush to create style, shine and volume.


When to brush
*Once tangles are removed from straight or wavy hair, a brush is usually the tool of choice for styling and smoothing hair. Dry and untangled hair can be gently brushed at any time. Wet hair may be brushed as part of the styling process.
*A flat "paddle" brush is useful for smoothing long, thick or coarse hair.
*Round brushes can be used to add volume and body to fine or limp hair. They may also be used to add curl to medium length or long hair.
*For short hair or hair with a blunt style, a vented brush is helpful when blow drying since it helps the hair to dry quickly.
