Hair related to skin...we talked about skin care before.. now we are going to talk about hair care ..
Here the important question is Are you using the right product ? Could your shampoo be damaging your hair? Should you brush your hair more -- or less? With more than 100,000 hair follicles on your head.
I-Dry Hair Care:
Dry hair looks brittle and feels .. There are many causes of dry hair:
1-From genetics (if mom and dad have dry hair, you probably will too) to hair treatments.
2-Inactive oil glands can cause dry hair.

If you have dry hair as a result of dry skin, consider washing your hair fewer times each week (every two or three days).
Also, pay attention to the type of shampoo and conditioner you use to make sure it replenishes your scalp with essential oils. Words to look for on hair care product labels are "hydrating" and "moisturizing."
Be sure to take care with heat and chemicals, especially if you have dry hair.
Although electric hair straighteners (flat irons) are popular, they do cause serious damage to hair. When used on high heat, hair dryers can damage hair, too. Decreasing your use of these hot devices (or at least using a less hot setting) will help to keep your hair healthier.
If you're not sure whether an appliance will damage your hair, think about your hair the way you think about your skin. Would you blast your face with 1875 watts of hot air every morning? Probably not!
Harsh chemicals in hair color, permanents, and relaxers can strip the hair of vital oils. Some hair dyes contain fewer harsh chemicals than others. Bleaches and peroxides are ingredients to watch out for. They can make your hair brittle and cause split ends.
Finally, be extra careful in the summer sun. Sunshine and chlorine can both cause dry hair. The easiest solution is to wear a hat or simply avoid getting too much sun

II-Oily Hair Care Tips:
Do you have oily hair? If you wash your hair in the morning, you may find yourself frustrated by the time evening rolls around, as your hair already appears to need another wash.
Keep in mind that "oily hair" is really an "oily scalp." Wash your scalp and hair as needed, lathering twice if you need to. You might try leaving the shampoo on your head for at least five minutes before rinsing. And condition your hair on the ends only.
An oily-hair "quick-fix" is to dab a bit of talcum powder to the roots of your hair.
Also, ask your hairstylist what he or she recommends for oily hair. Stay away from any product that adds "shine" to the hair. It will only add more oil to your already saturated locks.

And now we'll talk about one of the problems that cause the appearance of bad hair ....
''Dandruff'' ..!
Dandruff is simply dead skin shedding from your head at a fast rate. Almost everyone has had dandruff at some point to one degree or another. People with a strong degree of dandruff will experience an itchy scalp.
Even though dandruff is known as the drying of the scalp, it is most common in people with oily hair.
Some Causes Of The Dandruff:
*Hormone imbalance.
*Excessive perspiration
*Allergic reactions
*Excessive stress
* Poor nutration/health
*Lack of sleep
*Inherited genetic trait
*Inadequete shampooing and rinsing of the hair.
*Excessive use of hair styling products (gel, mouse, hair dye, hair curler...)
*Dry enviroment.
Some Tips About Dandruff Treatment:
*Unfortunately there is no cure for dandruff yet (once you get it you may continue to have it), but there are ways that you can control and limit dandruff.
*If you have only a mild case of dandruff, shampooing your hair with a regular shampoo daily or twice a day will usually do the trick.
*Start out by trying a mild shampoo. Stronger shampoos can irritate and dry out your hair making dandruff flaking worst.
*If your standard shampoo doesn't get rid of your dandruff, buy an anti-dandruff shampoo and your dandruff condition should improve signifigantly in a couple of weeks.
*Picking the right shampoo for your hair can be a process of trial and error, try out different shampoos to see which one works best for you and also rotating shampoos periodically can be good for your hair.
*Once you have found an anti-dandruff shampoo that works for you, keep on using it or your dandruff will most likely reoccur.
*Lather and rinse twice when using anti-dandruff shampoos, the first time cycle will clean your scalp, the second cycle will medicate it.

*Allergic reactions
*Excessive stress
* Poor nutration/health
*Lack of sleep
*Inherited genetic trait

Here are Six Hair Care Tips for Luscious Locks:
1. Realize that the grass is not always greener. Embrace your hair in its natural state, whether it's thin and straight or thick and curly, or somewhere in between. The more you struggle against Mother Nature, the more damage your hair will suffer.
2. Get regular "checkups" for your hair. Both guys and girls should get their hair trimmed regularly. Even if you are growing out your hair, get a trim at least once every two months (some recommend every six weeks). As you go through puberty, your hair might go through some drastic changes. A stylist can help you manage your hair by giving advice on products to use or by changing your hairstyle.
3. Remember: Manufacturers want your money; you want healthy hair.Don't believe the magazines or the back of the conditioner bottle, especially if it says you need every product in a particular manufacturer's line of hair care products. Use only what you absolutely need. Often this can be as simple as shampoo and conditioner, and perhaps a deep conditioner to use weekly on dry or thick hair, or a detangler for tangle-prone hair.
4. Beware of the brush. Even though it seems to make your hair shinier, repeated brushing can cause your hair to break and your ends to split. Of course, if you never use your brush, your mom would probably not be too happy. So use it when you need to, just not too much!
5. Leave color changes to the professionals. Although do-it-yourself highlights and hair-color kits are easy and inexpensive, the results are almost always not in your best interest. Get a recommendation for a good stylist and consult with him or her (as well as your parents!) before you decide to change your hair color. There are infinite shades of "blonde," "red," "brown," or even "black." A stylist can help you pick the best one for your skin tone. Also, your current hair-color might react to certain dyes.
6. Take care in braiding hair. Multiple-braid styles can look great. But do not over-twist or over-tighten braided hair. This can apply too much pressure to the hair roots and skin. Use natural oils, not multiple chemicals, on braided hair.
