Tips on Taking Care of Your Red Hair

Truth: Natural redheads have the thickest hair, but have the smallest number of strands.

For this reason, redheads have very fine hair and must take care of it.

Here are some tips for your daily hair regimen:

1. Be gentle when brushing your hair because it does pull on your hair. Trick: Try to not brush your hair when it’s wet because it causes dead ends.

2. Don’t shampoo if you don’t have to! We wash our hair every 3-5 days depending on how we style it because it doesn’t need to be washed. When it does get oily, we use a dry shampoo. Try: R+Co Death Valley Dry Shampoo ($32).

We apply it at the roots and work it through our hair. If you are in a pinch, resort to baby powder.. it works like a charm!

3. Dip your hair in olive oil and pin it up for a few hours while watching your favorite sitcom. You’ll notice a natural shine.

4. Eat the right foods because the vitamins will enhance your hair and nails!
