4. FENUGREEK WATER

QUICK FIXES

 1. If greasy hair troubles you then start using a dry shampoo , spray dry shampoo on the roots and run your fingers through the scalp . Do this the night before to prevent flakiness and residue buildup or  apply baby powder on the roots and brush your hair.

2 . Never skip conditioning your hair , shampoos cleanse and strip the hair off its naturals oils and thus damaging it , so always apply a conditioner.

3. While applying oil never overdo apply only a small quantity of oil to the hair lengths and a required amount to the scalp. Applying more oil to the hair lengths is only going to take more shampoo to wash , which in turn will damage your hair , maximum nourishment should always be given to the scalp.

4 . Always  use lukewarm water while shampooing  avoid using hot water on your hair, always wash off the conditioner with cold water , cold water locks the nourishment inside rather than striping it out like warm water .

5. Apply conditioner only to the hair lengths and never to the roots.

6. Apply the hair serum to wet hair for better results and again not on the roots.
