1. **Proper Diet**
A proper diet plays a vital role in skin and hair care. Foods that directly contribute to hair health are those rich in proteins, zinc, iron, amino acids, and vitamins A, B, and E. These nutrients can be found abundantly in meats, fish, seasonal fruits and vegetables, vegetable oils, and nuts.
2. **Keratin-Rich Nutritional Supplements**
While keratin is essential for nail health, it is also crucial for hair health. It is recommended to bolster its presence in the body by undergoing a nutritional supplement treatment lasting three months once a year to maintain hair vitality and density.
3. **Spirulina for More Vibrant Hair**
Spirulina is known to be a type of sea algae rich in iron and beta-carotene, which contribute to skin and hair beauty. Spirulina powder can be obtained from natural product stores and is used by adding it to skin and hair care creams or in homemade natural beauty recipes, as it helps enhance keratin production and improve hair quality and density.
4. **Henna for Increased Density**
Using neutral henna is recommended to maintain hair color, or colored henna in black or red to enhance or add color variations. This natural ingredient increases hair density by coating it with a protective layer. Henna is usually mixed with hot water before being applied as a mask across the entire hair, left on for 30 minutes to two hours. This natural treatment gives hair elasticity and density, significantly enhancing its volume and vitality.
5. **Homemade Clay Masks**
Using clay masks is one of the best natural methods to enhance hair density. Simply choose the right type of clay and mix it with a little water to make a hair care mask. Green clay is suitable for oily hair, while pink and white clays are suitable for all hair types. To prepare a clay mask, it is advised to use a wooden utensil and a glass bowl, mixing clay powder with mineral water and letting it sit for a few minutes before applying it to the hair. A few drops of essential oils can also be added to enhance its effect. The clay mask is applied to damp hair and left on for 20 minutes before washing out with shampoo and using conditioner for moisture.
6. **Rinsing Hair with Oat Milk**
Rinsing hair with oat milk helps enhance its vitality and shine. To prepare this milk, simply add four tablespoons of oat flour to one liter of water and let the mixture sit for about an hour before using it to rinse hair after washing.
7. **Combing Hair Upside Down**
This is a temporary optical trick but can be beneficial for enhancing hair density and volume. One can also use volumizing hair products; however, these do not affect the natural state of the hair but only its appearance.
8. **Air-Drying Hair**
Limiting the use of electrical styling tools is crucial for maintaining the health and vitality of fine hair. In this case, it is advised to let hair dry in the open air after washing, using only fingers to style it, and if necessary, using a little styling foam or a product that helps coat the hair and enhance density.
