Most often dry on the tips and fat at the roots are long hair. Hair mixed type can sin that look untidy, lose volume and shine. On the tips it is strongly stratified and stamped. They need to be washed every day, however even the most peeling, nuclear shampoo does not wash all the sticks to freshness and shine. To lay these hair is difficult. The illusion of volume closer to the middle of the working day simply disappears. From mousse or varnish, mixed type hair looks only more neglected. We have to compromise and tie the hair in a tight tail.
Looking for a guilty one
The reason for the dryness of the tips is that they do not reach the protective substances that produce the sebaceous glands. In the fact that the head has to be washed more than once in 3 days, and every morning, not only the dirty air is to blame. In the list of guilty - incorrectly selected care products (unnecessary moisturizing masks and shampoos, fatty conditioners, but for dry hair).
Did not help and stay in the sun, the use of thermal hair and ironing. Dry hair poorly dosed heat. The organism tries to resist harm and can aggressively defend itself. But if the problem is familiar, then for a while you need to give up not only ironing and hair dryer, but also from long combing, massaging the head - all this will help to restore hair of a mixed type.
Clear choice
Remove moisturizing shampoos until better times, and grease, oil masks are never applied to the roots of hair. The initial task is to choose a shampoo for normal or oily hair, and also to choose a mask for a mixed type of hair. Solid shampoos are good not only because they carefully clean the hair. In doing so, they wash away unnecessary silicone, which prevents the beneficial substances from "reaching out" to the hair.
The second goal is to find a cooling mask for a mixed hair type with white clay or menthol. Cooling mask with menthol perfectly soothes the skin, and white clay (kaolin) well dries.
Before bath procedures dry tips will be pleased with the oil (you can choose castor and burdock, natural olive).
Only after washing do not forget to rinse your head with cold water. Contrasting temperature can help hair at the roots to rise a little, to acquire an additional volume.
Professionals say
The fight with split ends of mixed hair type can seem one-sided. You try, but they do not care. However, if long-term care does not help you, then, most likely, the haircut will be rescued by hot scissors. A good master will clip the tiny fragments of a hair that has been visited, and not 3-4 centimeters of a favorite haircut. Such scissors are not new for a long time. This service is in all, even the most democratic salons. Despite the heat treatment, the tips of the hair are not damaged, but on the contrary - sealed. On hot, "smart" scissors there is a special indicator of temperature. So, at a hairstyle of thick and dense hair it is possible to lift degree that the procedure was more effective. Are not you afraid to solve the problem by radical methods? Choose a short multistage haircut. You can again with hot scissors. This effect will last for a long time.
Salon procedures are designed to fight and with high fat content. In a good salon, you can be offered a study in the trichologist's office. The specialist will determine what vitamins are missing, and what masks you need to take. Most often, shortage of vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is revealed. It is part of some multivitamin complexes and is found in certain foods (leaf greens, oatmeal and buckwheat, milk, liver, cheese and eggs).
