by Alana Jones Content WRiter
If you are facing problem of hair loss, you need special hair care tips to help you manage the problem. While it is necessary to consult a dermatologist or your physician when you notice severe and sudden hair loss, sometimes hair loss can be the result of improper handling of hair, damaging styling techniques, and environmental hazards such as chemicals and UV rays that turn the hair brittle. Some of the basic hair care tips to eliminate the cause hair loss have been discussed below.

Go for natural drying after a shower

You could always choose not to use a blow dryer and instead let your hair dry out naturally. If you have to use a blow dryer, make sure that it is set at a lower temperature, and you're holding it a bit far away from your hair so as to minimize the damage caused by heat.

Choose an easy-to-manage style

While there are tons of styling techniques that can dramatically alter the way your hair looks, you might want to wear your hair in a style that requires a minimal amount of styling products. Not only does this reduce the time and effort needed to maintain the hairstyle, it also reduces the possibility of exposing your head to dangerous chemicals and heat that can ruin your hair.

Avoid heavy extensions for your hair

Hair extensions can work wonders for your looks, but you have to be very careful how you use these extensions. Sometimes, hair extensions are so heavy that they pull at the scalp and thus cause hair loss. It is recommended that you do not use extensions for more than four weeks consecutively, so as to give your scalp and hair follicles the time to rest and rejuvenate after the stress of having to bear the weight of the extensions.

Be conscious about scalp health

Your scalp, like the rest of your body needs care and attention.  The hair follicles on your scalp are where hair strands originate and if your scalp is damaged in any way, it has an effect on the growth of hair. Fungal infections, scarring, and inadequate blood circulation are some of the major problems that can cause hair loss. Besides ensuring that you are eating an iron rich diet, you might also want to use products that eliminate fungal infections. Massaging your scalp with your fingertips is beneficial since it increases blood circulation.

Besides following these hair care tips, you may also follow some tips for silky hairs, so as to ensure better hair volume and texture. You will need to protect your hair from dryness, as well as external damage caused by exposure to ultraviolet rays, high temperatures, and chemicals. Some chemicals such as sulfates are bad for your hair, particularly if it is color treated. You may try a special range of shampoos and conditioners to ensure that only sulfate free products are used for hair care.

Following good hair care tips will ensure smooth, shiny mane for a long time to come. Besides following general tips for silky hairs, you may also try Keranique products that are specially targeted at women's hair loss, should you ever notice that your hair is not as thick or plentiful, or as healthy as it used to be.
