Do you like LONG HAIR???? How can I protect my long hair????

yes i hav hair not that long as urs ,but its a little long,it is breaking and becox of the dandruff it is getting spoiled.I do apply oil and do care for it ,but i dont knw why still i have the problem .The hair grows good but break in the middle.so its not long enough.i use head and shoulders as a shampoo but still there is problem. They do say that colouring and doing other sorts of things for the hair will cause the hair problem.i am not sure about that.

Hi Dassodils! I wish I could also have a long hair too but my face is not round so they say long hair does not look good on me. Anyway, you should always brush your hair to keep it moisturized but then too much oil can lead to dandruff. If you already have a dandruff better use the anti-dandruff shampoo and follow it up with a conditioner so that it will not dry. If you don't mind going to hair spas, treating yourself once every month is also a good way to keep your hair soft and shinny. Finally, if you want to give your hair some waves or body, part them into two sections and then sleep with a braid on. :)

I have hair down to my butt. I make sure I use a deep conditioner. One thing that can be used is mayonnaise and a warm towel. Then I braid it during the day unless I am going out and fix it lose. The less processing(products and hair dryer usage) the better for your hair. It should be trimmed periodically and your hair dresser is the one to ask just how often.

isn't it hard for a long haired girl like that on the picture to ride the taxi or jeepney? or the wind may immediately blow the ends of hair and hit the face of the person sitting beside you?

I had long hair when i was a teenager,i think it was just my way of protesting because everyone was telling me that i should get a haircut ( for a guy living in an ex comunist country it was difficult back then to have long hair ).And i kept it until i finished the highschool and i had to take the final exams because the school principal told me she will not allow me to take the exams...so in the end the bad society we live in won and i never left my hair to grow again. P.S: I think it`s bad if you want to change the colour of your hair (at least i know it`s bad if you are doing it too often )

Trim you hair regularly to get rid of split ends ;) It impedes hair growth..Eat a nutritious diet too and your hair will boast its health. :)

Hi Dassodils, Well, my mom was a hairdresser and so is a very close friend of mine. The problems you are having could be caused by many things. One thing could be some sort of health problem. It could be that your hair is damaged and just needs a good trim. I would not reccomend coloring it or putting any harsh chemicals in your hair until you restore it and it's healthy again. When I put a perm solution in my hair,I very badly damaged it and it stared falling out in clumps and got vey frizzy. I ued horse & mane shampoo and onditoner. It used to be only used for horses but humans discovered it is amazing on our hair and now can be found in with the shampoos in the regular stores.

In order for your long hair, stay healthy, you have to maintain the hair moisture. Make sure the rinse shampoo, until completely clean, and use a conditioner appropriate for your hair type.

My daughter also has a long hair almost reaching the floor now. I massage fresh coconut milk into her scalp and then let it stand for an hour before rinsing. I do this once a month like hot oil. Some people use mayonnaise,but mayonnaise is too expensive so,I prefer the fresh coconut milk.

I have long hair. I like long hair. The protection to long hair is simple. For me, I wash my hair everyday with anti dandruff shampo, then add with conditioner for coloring hair (because I also colour my hair). That's all and fortunately that my hair is healthy, so I never have problem this far. Have a nice day and best wishes,

Biotin is a good supplement to take for your hair and nails. I hope you save your hair. It is very pretty. I have the same trouble with my hair thinning. But, mine is age. Good luck.

Wow,your hair is so long.My hair always grows to a certain length and it stops growing.You could use conditioner and have hot oil for hair .Try to keep your hair submissive and use better shampoo.From the photo,I believe your hair must be in good condition.You should put more attention to it.Hair is so important to a girl.

long hairs are difficult to manage.even i had long hairs a few years back but then i had to spend a lot of time taking care of my hair.i=even if i have to comb my hair,it took almost 10-15 minutes.so now i have switched to medium hair. long hairs also have this hair fall commonly as they get tangled easily.what i suggest you is to give a hot oil message to your hair night before you are planning a head bath and then after shampoo apply conditioners too. choose on a brand that suits you.for treating dandruff you can use an antifungal solution along with your oil and massage with it.

Wow, your long hair must be beautiful! Mine is long too, though it's just at waist length and have become thinner last year so i started taking care of it religiously. I found that it helps if I massage my scalp with olive oil and leave it on for a couple hours before washing. I also put some olive oil on the ends at the same time to prevent from splitting. For coloring henna is the best and healthiest, as pure henna colors the hair red, I mix it with cocoa powder so it gives brown color with a reddish tint (originally its medium brown). Henna with indigo gives brown color. It makes my hair look a bit thicker. After washing hair, whether I use conditioner or not, I rinse it with water mixed with a little vinegar. It makes my hair shinier and easier to handle. Hope it helps, I see you already got many good ideas.

Dear friend, Here in South India, having long hair was something special during those old days, but now days it is seen that mostly women have medium hair. I feel it would be part of an individual comfortableness and choice of freedom. I do like long hair that too if that hair is beautiful. May be if I am a female I would like to have long beautiful hair. To grown long hair there is an Ayurvedic oil which is name Healol it gives long and healthy hair, only things is it makes your head too cool that at time you may get cold or sneezing. I had used it several times, but to avoid cold I avoided it. But make sure it is Healol it is mostly available in Ayurvedic shops and mostly by Musa Ayurveda. Wish you all the best soon you will the hair that you wished to have...

Well if you are having problems with your long hair such as having hair fall and dundruff and it is becoming thin this means it is time for you to trim your hair. It has become too long that you are no longer able to manage it well. Having it too long to reach your knee will really make your hair suffer. Hair can be long but it is not meant to reach that long. You should trim it lest you go bald. Other girls do have long hair but they can keep it healthy and glowing and thick because they trim it regularly. Do the same if you want to save your hair.

Hi! Yes, I like keeping my hair long although it is not as long as yours. The longest I kept it was around my waist and then it becomes too hard to manage in my opinion so I cut it :) I think knowing what kind of hair type you have is a good start. Is it like oily, super dry, sensitive, frizzy, damaged, etc. Then you should research and use products that works well with your hair. I think to protect your hair, try to limit the uses of extreme heat such as hair irons, straighteners, and blow dryers. But of course you can always use heat protectant products when you do use heat on your hair. Some day shampoo and conditioning hair every day may be damaging so there are dry shampoos out there where it's a basically a powder that you put on your hair. But I never tried it so I can't say much about it. Just wanted to bring ideas up haha. Anyways, I use 100% pure coconut oil on my hair daily for 30 minutes before i take my shower. I rub it in my scalp and all over my hair. This made my hair less dry and seems stronger. I believe in conditioning every day and leaving it on for at least 5 minutes when you're in the shower. I think coloring your hair is not a bad idea but there will be chemicals involved so it will cause some degree of damage. However I think as long as you condition and apply coconut oil to your hair afterwards, you should go for it! A healthy diet also play a part in keeping your hair strong and healthy. Staying hydrated and eating fish, nuts, fruits, and vegetables play a role in hair care. Good luck in your hair care!

I maintained a long hair but not as long as yours.Coloring your hair can damage your it except if you use natural hair dyes like Henna which can actually thicken and adds shine to your hair.I also suggest to trim your hair about an inch every month or two to get rid of split ends,and the thinnest parts of our hair.You should wash your hair everyday preferably with Head and Shoulders shampoo to get rid of dandruff and use a conditioner to avoid dryness of the scalp which can lead to dandruff.

That very nice that you have and maintain such long hair. Try using olive oil at night and deep into the roots. Also read this "www.linkodir.com/articles/herbal-remedy-for-hair-growth-36.htm". You ll find the complete history of hair and how it is all about.
