Growing Your Hair Out – Taking Proper Care of Your Hair

Care for your long locks

To ensure your long locks look their best and avoid looking unprofessional, it’s essential to take proper care of them and maintain them regularly.

Schedule regular trims

To promote optimal hair growth, it’s crucial to schedule regular trims. Trimming your hair removes dry and damaged ends that can hinder its growth. The frequency of frames will depend on your hair type and style. Consulting with a professional stylist can help determine your ideal trim schedule.

According to celebrity hairstylist Jeff Chastain, if you have thick and wavy locks that require frequent heat styling, getting a professional trim every eight to 10 weeks is recommended. A haircut every six to eight weeks may be more suitable for finer and more fragile hair types. Instruct your stylist to be gentle and preserve as much length as possible.

Don’t forget about accessories

Using accessories like decorative headbands, bobby pins, and clips can help camouflage uneven hair lengths and keep your style looking current during the transitional phase of growing out your hair.
