Whether its short, long, or in between hair maintenance is important, especially chemically treated hair. Using products specifically for your hair type helps to keep hair healthy and shiny and will reduce breakage because you are maintaining a strong head of hair.

Washing your hair too frequently can dry out your hair so if you must do it constantly use a conditioner like Hollywood Beauty Carrott Conditioner which adds strength and moisture to dry and damaged hair. Organic Olive Oil has a good deep penetrating conditioner that conditions the hair and helps restore moisture that is lost during the relaxer process.

Wearing a silk scarf also helps protect hair and will keep your hair looking luscious. Going to a good hairdresser is also a plus. They are trained to take care of all types of hair. If you are starting to see a new hairdresser make sure to tell them what you have done to your hair so that they can properly treat your hair. If you are hit by the recession and must do your hair yourself, make sure you that you read the packaging. Not all products are made for everyone so proceed carefully.
