Let’s be honest—we’ve all made at least one hair care mistake without even realizing it. Maybe you’re washing too often, skipping conditioner, or cranking up the heat on your styling tools a little   too   much. The good news? Most of these habits are   easy to fix , and once you do, your hair will thank you with more shine, less breakage, and better overall health!

Type 1: Straight Hair ✔ No natural curl or wave. ✔ Gets oily faster because oils travel down the shaft easily. ✔ Needs lightweight products to avoid looking greasy. Type 2: Wavy Hair ✔ S-shaped waves that range from barely-there bends (2A) ...

Healthy, beautiful hair doesn’t happen by accident—it takes the right routine, patience, and consistency. As a hairstylist, I’ve worked with different hair types and seen firsthand how the right care can transform dull, lifeless strands into vibrant, thriving hair. Whether you have natural curls, sleek straight locks, or color-treated tresses, this guide will help you build the perfect hair care routine for your hair’s unique needs.
