1. Adopt a special hair diet

Do you know which foods make hair grow ? A diet rich in vitamins and minerals, especially iron, zinc, and vitamins A and E, promotes hair growth and health. Consume fruits, vegetables, brewer's yeast, eggs, liver, and nuts to provide enough vitamin B8, which acts as a cement that improves hair quality.

2. Moisturize your hair regularly

Today, we care for our hair like we do our skin with active ingredients derived from our cosmetics. This is called "skinification." While all hair types need water, medium-length and long, curly, and frizzy hair require a lot of hydration. The right approach? Use moisturizing conditioners with aloe vera or hyaluronic acid, as well as nourishing masks and oils to seal water inside the fiber, closing and polishing the scales.

The right choice: When properly absorbed, coconut, macadamia, or argan vegetable oils restore the lipid film by mimicking the properties of sebum, limiting transepidermal water loss. On a daily basis, a small amount warmed between the hands on the ends is enough to make them shine. Once or twice a week, leave it on the lengths for several hours, covered.

3. Choose suitable hair products

Choose shampoos and conditioners that are suited to your hair type, whether dry, oily, curly, or color-treated. Avoid products containing sulfates that are harsh on the scalp and cause color to fade, harmful parabens, and silicones that suffocate the hair.

If your hair is very dry and damaged on the lengths and ends, double up on treatments as regularly as possible, such as an oil bath once a week. The right mix: fortifying castor oil on the roots and moisturizing coconut oil on the lengths, massage with your fingertips to activate microcirculation, then leave on for at least 30 minutes.

4. Wash your hair sparingly

One or two shampoos? The hairdressers' rule: first shampoo to wash and then shampoo to condition. This is only true if you use gentle formulas that are truly tailored to your scalp and hair type.

Have you mastered the technique? It's recommended to massage the shampoo into the roots once, then add a little water, then massage again three times in a row. The goal: to lather the product and prolong the scalp massage to activate microcirculation.

Be careful if you're a fan of daily shampooing. Washing your hair too frequently can strip it of its natural oils, the famous sebum that acts as a shield of protection and shine. This is especially true if you use water that's too hot. Rinse with lukewarm or cold water, adding a dose of apple cider vinegar to close the cuticles while dissolving drying limescale particles. This is the secret to shine.

6. Brush and detangle gently

Should you detangle before, during, or after shampooing? Made up of 17% water, hair can stretch up to 30% of its original length when wet! Brushing too roughly can break the fiber. The best thing to do: style your hair well beforehand, starting at the bottom and gradually working your way up to the roots. This helps remove dust and pollution particles and allows excess sebum to slide from the roots to the lengths. After shampooing, if the conditioner isn't enough to detangle, use a wide-toothed comb, which causes less damage.

7. Take care of your scalp

A healthy scalp is the key to healthy hair. Using the Aime Scalp Massage Brush , gently massage your scalp to stimulate blood circulation and promote healthy hair growth. Invigorating and stimulating, self-massaging your scalp three times a week, with or without oil, reoxygenates the blood, allows for better nutrient absorption, and promotes the penetration of active ingredients. If you experience discomfort or tightness, swap detergent shampoos, which alter the hydrolipidic barrier and damage the hair fiber, for formulas containing prebiotics to nourish the skin's flora.

8. Trim the ends regularly

Hairstylists' advice: Trimming your ends every two to three months helps eliminate split ends and prevent further damage. It also allows your hair to grow faster and healthier. However, many of us put off this appointment, waiting until our ends are in terrible condition before stepping into a salon. The trick to boost your confidence: ask for a dry cut to see the results in real time, without any nasty surprises.

9. Protect your hair from damage

UV rays and air pollution can damage your hair by increasing dehydration and oxidizing the surface color. When in the sun, wear a hat or use hair products with SPF and antioxidants. This is especially true if you have color-treated, highlighted, or bleached hair. The sun, chlorine, water, and salt make the pH too alkaline, degrading the cuticles and making the fiber more porous. As a result, pigments bleed faster and oxidize, creating false copper tones in brunettes or green in blondes.

Good to know: like a shield, the sebum layer limits scalp irritation due to oxidation, so it is important not to shampoo in the days before bleaching and to space out washes thereafter, using gentle, moisturizing, nourishing and antioxidant formulas that prevent dulling.

10. Bet on food supplements

Taking care of your hair takes time and regularity. Our recommendation: do a course of Special hair food supplements in spring to ensure quality hair growth all summer long and in fall to limit seasonal hair loss. The right ingredients: Probiotics , folic acid, and rice protein, as well as vitamin B8, or biotin, which boosts the amino acids that promote hair growth. These are the main active ingredients in Aime Hair & Scalp Boost capsules. A best-selling formula that balances the scalp and promotes healthy hair growth.
