8 common hair woes detangled

Let’s be straight about this - not everyone is blessed with that gorgeous mane of hair at birth. But this does not mean that you should despair about your hair. The key to giving your hair a fresh breath of life is to get to the root of your hair woes.
Celebrity hair stylist Wu Yi Lin has some simple tips to help spruce up your coiffure. Click 'Next' to check them out.

Dry hair

Oily hair
Your hair constantly falls flat and limp, and is difficult to style with its oily nature. This could be due to the overproduction of sebum from your scalp.
It is best to steer clear from hair products that are moisturising or heavy in texture to prevent this. You can try scalp treatment to deeply cleanse scalp. Avoid long gliding stroke massage as this stimulates oil secretion.
You can also use a shower head to create a gentle stream of water to rinse/massage your head. Do ensure that the water temperature is within 25 – 30 degree Celsius.

Weak hair

Frizzy hair
People with natural curls and/or coarse hair tend to end up with frizzy hair. It could be due to a lack of moisture from overexposure to humidity, sun and strong wind, or you could be facing severely damaged hair which is usually porous and absorbs too much moisture.
On the other hand, your frizzy mane could simply be hereditary, which is absolutely gorgeous. Still, if you desire to de-frizz your hair, look to hair products specially formulated for frizzy hair, and prevent further exposure to heat by using suitable hair styling products.
