Make Dead Hair Live





Dead hair is like a dead corpse to me, but there are steps you can do to make it better looking. Dead hair is best to cut it off and start all over again. Ofcourse some of us can't do that! Soooo...


Start by trimming it. Trim atleast 4 to 6 weeks atleast half inch. This removes the split ends and keeps the hair from splitting into two. That's why trims are very important.


Give it a special treatment. A very successful one is treating your hair with, It's a 10 products. Click for more product info


Don't wash your hair more than once every two days. By doing this you are dehydrating the hair.

Change to a shampoo for 'Damage Repair' or 'Protein Care'.

Condition your hair. It avoids tangles in your hair. Putting a leave-in conditioner on makes it better.

When your hair is wet, it's better to use a comb than a brush. Avoid using brushes as they damage your hair

There are many products you can do to your hair to make it look better. You can try hair serum. It eases frizz in your hair.

Make sure that when you're doing the oil treatment, you don't make it very hot as the oil would hurt and damage your scalp.


Avoid using a straightening or a curling iron very often.
 
Try it as your hair grows healthy your trimming the dead off!
 
thank you

Get out of the kitchen if you can't stand the HEAT!

Heat is like fire!


 
I really educate my clients on the importance of protecting your hair against the heat. Flat irons, curling iron and hair dryers can get as hot as 475 degrees.

Heat Styling is a leading cause in damaged hair. Heat breaks hair's cuticle and withdraws moisture leaving hair dry and damage.


*So what is the solution for heat damage hair you might be asking? The answer is an amazing short cut or atleast cutting all damaged part off!

Preventions: I am listing a few of *many 
  1. lowering the heat to your flat irons
  2. wearing a hat on sunny days
  3. more spray tanning less tanning beds
  4. using keratin and moisture leave-in contioners before a blow dry and then using a heat protection products before the hot tools
What are some of your preventions? Share with me and comment them.
 

Thank you for reading

Gisell's deep conditioning hair treatment products favorites


I can not stress the importance of hair and scalp care. Call me obssesed if you must. I am in love with a good hair wash, applying a deep conditioner (with a scalp massage), putting a plastic cap and going under the hot heat dryer for 15 to 20 minutes. Not only it's relaxing but it is so good for your scalp and hair. Even if it is once a month to have a scalp massage, for me it is worth it. Try it and let me know how it feels.

Here I wrote some benefits that you will get from a scalp massage:

A deep relaxation to the head and scalp which allows blood circulation to flow more easily to the hair roots.
Improved circulation, which results from scalp massage, provides hair roots with nourishment to help trigger hair growth.

When a good conditioner it is used, it can help add moisture and conditioning to the scalp and the hair enhancing natural textures and making it move vibrant.

Scalp massage adds natural luster and shine to the hair.

 Scalp massage can relieve itchy scalps, prevent flaking and help with chronic dandruff. Always check with your dermatologist first.
Regular scalp massage can help protect hair from environmental toxins and other weather conditions by helping to strengthen the follicles.


It can help with stressful or negative emotions.

The benefits of scalp massage also help provide a glow to the complexion of the face.


It can help your eyes to relax, help to minimize chronic eye strain, and can be a general tonic for hypersensitivity or excessive nervousness.

Regular scalp massage has proven to help in some cases of chronic headaches or migraines.


Here are my top 4 favorite deep conditioners that I have used. Mind you that I have used millions of them since beauty school more than 10 years ago. These are my favorite ones below and my TOP 1 it's my bonus*



I leave this on my hair for hours than I rinse.

Ofcourse, the bonus is my top number 1 product. It is on the pricey side but every penny worth it. I love it and I love the whole line of It's a 10...


What are your favorites? Drop me a comment and I will try them out.

Love, care and feed your hair!
