Hairdressing for men

Having healthy hair and taking care of its appearance is not limited to women only, but is also a concern for men. Men like to have their hair appear in a distinctive and tidy way and like to change their hairstyle from time to time. In this article, we will talk about the steps for styling men’s hair, ways to care for it, and some recipes. The natural ones used to care for it.

Ways to style men's hair

These are the basic methods for styling men's hair:

  • Use gel or hair cream, by placing small amounts of it on wet hair. It is recommended that the gel be free of alcohol, as it causes dry hair.
  • Comb the hair after applying the styling product to style it in the desired shape, either in the direction of hair growth, backwards, or upwards.
  • Dry hair gently with a blowdryer in the direction of hair growth, but not on a daily basis because it causes hair damage.

Steps to take care of men's hair

These are some of the routine steps for taking care of men's hair:

  • Use dandruff shampoo 3-4 times a week for a month. If it does not give the desired results, replace it with another type of shampoo or consult a dermatologist to prescribe the appropriate type of shampoo for the condition.
  • Use hair conditioner appropriate to the nature of the hair.
  • Use sunscreen for the hair. Constant exposure to the sun's rays may cause baldness or thinning of the hair, so it is recommended to use sunscreen with a protection level of 30 or higher.
  • Massage the scalp with one of the oils suitable for the hair type, as the massage increases blood flow to the hair follicles.
  • Wash hair two to three times a week.
  • Wash the hair with cold or lukewarm water and avoid washing it with hot water, as it causes dryness of the hair.
  • Massage the scalp during the shower. Massage during the shower stimulates blood circulation and promotes hair growth.
  • Treat the hair gently during the routine steps.
  • Healthy nutrition: It is important to eat proteins found in eggs, walnuts, and meat, eat Omega 3 found in salmon, sardines, and hazelnuts, and eat vitamin B found in eggs, meat, and green leafy vegetables.
  • Comb your hair once or twice a day and avoid combing it frequently, for example once when you wake up from sleep and again in the evening, and avoid combing it when it is wet. Because it is weak and when combed, it is exposed to breakage.
  • Take supplements for hair growth and health, such as biotin and fish oil.
  • Drink large amounts of water to moisturize the hair and scalp.
  • Quitting the smoking habit, as it causes hair loss from the front of the head and graying of the hair.
  • Reducing stress by practicing yoga exercises, listening to music, and sleeping enough hours.
  • Hair cutting every 6 weeks.
