here are some hair tips for your hair....
-If your hair is in a really terrible condition start taking some good multi vitamin for a month or two. Shear Hair & Beauty recommends the 21st Century Hair, Skin and Nails dietary supplement available at JD pharmacy.
- Maintain a healthy diet, increase the intake of fresh fruits and green vegetables, drink plenty of water and avoid short spicy or junk foods.
- Some spices are good for promoting healthy looking hair; these include turmeric, black pepper and cumin. Start using these spices in your daily nutritional intake but just be careful because an excess may be harmful for the rest of your body.
- Avoid stress, because stress or anxiety may lead to hair loss.
- Always use a shampoo and conditioner according to your hair type.
- Avoid sleeping in hair accessories such as barrettes, scrunches, head bands, etc. This can lead to hair damage. Use a sleeping cap made of soft fabric and wrap your hair at night, so it stays smooth and silky the whole time.

How To Determine your face Shape.

When you know your face shape you can choose your most flattering hairstyles, hats, eyeglasses, sunglasses and earrings.

Determining Your Face Shape

There are a few approaches to this. You will need...

• A mirror large enough to see your whole face
• It may help to have a photo of your face. Pull your hair back away from your face and make sure the photo is taken square-on to your face, so you can see both sides. If you're taking the photo yourself, for example with a cell phone camera, make sure the camera is far enough away that you don't get a distorted, fish-eye effect!
• Or, it may help to draw the outline of your face, with your hair held away from your face, on the mirror (make sure whatever you use -- for example, whiteboard marker, eye-liner pencil, lipstick -- will wipe off later!

Knowing the correct shape of your face will help you find a style that will best compliment your features.

  

 Square:  A strong jaw line is common with a square face. The cheekbone, brow bone, and jaw usually have a similar length and width

  Rectangle:  An elongated square face.

  Round:  The length and width of face is similar and the middle portion is wider than the forehead and jaw line creating the round appearance.

  Oblong aka a Long Face:  This is when cheekbone and brow bone are similar in width but the length of the face is noticeably longer.

  Oval:  Considered the most appealing of facial shapes because the jaw line is more narrow then the temples creating soft features. If you have an oval face shape consider yourself lucky, you can wear almost any hair style.

  Diamond:  This is when your cheekbones are noticeably wider than your Brow bone and jaw line, resulting in a narrow forehead and jaw line.

  Triangle (Pear Shaped):  When the forehead is very narrow with a wide jaw and chin line.

  Inverted Triangle (Heart Shaped):  A wider forehead and a narrow jaw and chin line.

“If the wrong style is created for the wrong face shape, the result is a disaster.”

 It's all about putting the perfect frame around a person's face to balance and bring perspective to the overall shape. It is very important for you to understand face shape suitability it will help you to understand what does and does not work for you and why. There is a general rule that applies to face shape balancing and it is that you should try to achieve an oval shape, which is the most perfect and pleasing shape to the human eye.

Hairstyle that suit your face shape. 

1. For a round shape face keep in mind to minimize roundness by creating less volume around the face.

2. A square shape face want to draw attention away from your angular jaw. Go with texture hairstyles such as choppy ends and lots of curls.

3. An oval face shape can wear just about any hairstyle, so just have fun with your hair and accentuate some of your best face features.

4. For long oblong face shapes remember one thing, add width. You want full hairstyles and haircuts that has lots of volume.

5. The heart shape face has that pointy chin that seems to draw all the attention. So to take away from that, bring out your eyes by wear side-swept bangs.

Scalp care tips!

Your basic hair care tips should always begin with scalp care because without the base of the scalp you will have no hair to care for. Most of the hair problems have their roots in scalp problems and thus it is important to find out how to solve them. Here are the most basic and essential scalp care tips that you must follow for beautiful problem free hair. 

• The dry flaky skin of the scalp is basically what we call dandruff. So you need to oil your scalp properly before you oil your hair. Rub warm coconut oil into your scalp and it will solve your dandruff scalp problems.

•          Your scalp skin has pores just like the skin on your body. You have to make sure that those pores are open before you oil your hair. Weak hair is often a manifestation of a scalp problem as the oil that you massage does not get absorbed into the roots. Wrap a hot towel (towel dipped in hot water and drained) and let it stay for 5 minutes before you oil your hair.

•          When washing your hair, you have to scrub your scalp clear first because the oil and the grime accumulate here. If your scalp remains unclean then hair gets oil in a day and if you have itchy hair then the dandruff too returns quickly after a hair wash.

• If you have hair odor then it is probably due to smelly scalp. There is something called a smelly scalp syndrome, this is actually a fungal infection of the scalp. It happens either because you are not using the right kind of towels and pillow covers or you pick it up from a person with whom you have close physical contact. You need a medicated anti-microbial shampoo for its treatment and also start using good quality new towels and pillow covers.
