Taking care of your hair is essential for maintaining its health and appearance. Avoiding certain practices can help prevent damage. Here are five things you should never do to your hair:

 

 Milk and Gram Flour

The lactic acid in milk helps lighten skin tone while gram flour helps to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. You can soak your feet in a basin of milk for 20-30 minutes, and gently massage to remove tanning. Repeat two times a week for best results. 

Over washing

Try not to wash your hair more than two to three times a week, as overwashing can strip natural oils, making it brittle and dry.

Excessive Heat

Frequent use of hot styling tools like straighteners, curling irons and blow dryers can cause heat damage, and make your hair dry and prone to breakage.

Brushing Wet Hair

Wet hair is more fragile and prone to breakage. You can use a wide-toothed comb to detangle your hair gently after washing.

Skipping Regular Trims

Trim your hair every six to eight weeks to maintain its health and promote growth. Skipping regular haircuts can lead to split ends and an unhealthy appearance.
