Going through a bad hair day happens, but most of the time it’s avoidable. Many of the mistakes people make with their hair could be prevented by using the right hair product, or by making a simple adjustment to their hair care routine. Whether you have dry hair, frizzy hair or simply can’t get your hair how you want it to look, here are some of the top mistakes you may be making with your hair and not even know it.

dry hairNot Cutting Your Hair Enough

You have to trim your hair periodically for it to continue growing health and strong. Waiting too long between trims could promote split ends and other issues. You don’t have to get a dramatic haircut often, but you do need to visit your salon every couple of months to have the strongest and healthiest hair possible.

Using The Wrong Shampoo

Overlooking the importance of a quality sulfate free shampoo and conditioner is one of the biggest mistakes people make. Shampoo with sulfate can actually cause more harm than good, so those need to be avoided as much as possible. Switching shampoos could be your solution to healthier looking hair.

Not Keeping Your Hair Moisturized

Dry hair is a common problem people have with their hair. Most of the time, using the proper sulfate free shampoo and conditioner will keep your hair moisturized properly. But if it still seems like your hair is too dry, consider incorporating a leave-in conditioner.

Brushing Too Much or Too Early

Brushing your hair while it’s wet is another common mistake. It’s easy to get in a rush and brush your hair right when you get out of the shower, but you need to wait until your hair is about 70% dry before brushing. Otherwise, you could be removing all of the good nutrients and treatments you just added to your hair with the shampoo and conditioner. Plus, brushing too much could cause you to have a frizzy mess.

Over-Shampooing

Using the proper sulfate free shampoo and conditioner is important, but using too much of it may not be the best option either, depending on your hair. Too much shampoo can cause dry hair and make it difficult to style. Instead, switch up your routine and only shampoo your hair once every few days for better results.
