Long hair can be a lot of work. It takes time to maintain, and it can sometimes feel like it&#8217;s taking over your life. Here are some tips for maintaining long, healthy hair:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Protect your ends by getting them trimmed regularly and use quality products that keep them moisturized and nourished.<\/li>\n<li>Invest in a boar bristle brush or comb to prevent breakage from brushing too hard.<\/li>\n<li>Use dry shampoo or wet shampoo sparingly as they tend to strip the natural oils from the scalp, which is not suitable for the health of your locks.<\/li>\n<li>Use quality shampoo and conditioner from the salon or drug store; avoid products with sulfates like sodium lauryl sulfate because they strip the natural oils from your scalp, which can lead to dryness.<\/li>\n<li>Always use a heat protector before blow-drying or straightening, this will help prevent breakage caused by excessive heat exposure.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid using hot tools when styling damp hair, instead try air drying it first, then add volume with heated tools if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52\" src=\"http:\/\/zerotofivefunderscollaborative.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAINTAINING_LONG_HAIR_3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"235\" srcset=\"http:\/\/zerotofivefunderscollaborative.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAINTAINING_LONG_HAIR_3.jpg 830w, http:\/\/zerotofivefunderscollaborative.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAINTAINING_LONG_HAIR_3-300x85.jpg 300w, http:\/\/zerotofivefunderscollaborative.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/MAINTAINING_LONG_HAIR_3-768x217.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It would help if you washed it at least once a week and use the conditioner. If you&#8217;re having trouble with tangles, try using a wide-toothed comb instead of a brush. Conditioners are great for <a title=\"keeping the moisture in your hair\" href=\"https:\/\/www.allure.com\/story\/moisturize-natural-hair-between-washes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">keeping the moisture in your hair<\/a>, and they also help protect against breakage. Ensure that you don&#8217;t apply too much product as this can cause build-up on the scalp, leading to dandruff or greasiness. Finally, brush your hair before going to bed so that all of those knots are worked out, and then sleep in braids or ponytails if possible &#8211; these will keep your tresses from getting tangled during slumber.<\/p>\n<p>Long hair is a symbol of femininity and beauty.
