In today's time, falling, dry or damaged hair has become a common problem. Pollution, harsh exposure to the sun and lack of nutrition are responsible for this, but apart from this, some known and unknowing mistakes in our daily lifestyle also cause huge harm to the hair. If you are also troubled by hair problems, then it is important to know about these 5 common mistakes that happen every day.

comb through wet hair

Most people make the mistake of combing wet hair immediately after shampooing, because they think that wet hair will be straightened quickly. But wet hair is extremely weak from the root, due to which hair breaks more. Hair should always be combed only after it is completely dry. For excessively braided hair, it is advisable to use only a comb with wide teeth.

massage vigorously with excess oil

In Indian homes, applying oil and massaging the hair is an important part of hair care. Oil provides moisture to the hair and shampooing improves blood circulation. But this massage should always be done with a light hand. Many people massage too vigorously, due to which the hair roots get pulled and they become weak and start falling.

rub shampoo on ends of hair

While washing hair, most of the people apply shampoo on the ends of the hair along with the scalpel and rub it. Due to this heat the hair becomes extremely dry and damaged. Shampoo is basically only for cleaning the dirt of the scalp. Therefore, apply shampoo only on the scalp, the foam generated automatically cleans the hair strands.

constantly wear a tight hairstyle

If you constantly tie a high ponytail into a tight bun, it also causes excessive pull on the hair roots. In the long run, this causes the problem of receding hairline. One should avoid doing the same hairstyle every day and should not tie the hair too tightly.

using cotton swabs

The health of your hair also depends on what kind of shampoo you use while sleeping at night. The lint-covered towel of cotton causes friction in the hair, which causes the hair to become dry and break. For hair care, one should always use a silk covered towel and it is advisable to put a rubber band made of silk fabric on the hair also.
