Regardless of what your hair care routine was like before, when you start noticing changes to your hair in your 40s, making some small changes can make a big difference. Targeting the specific changes is most important, especially when it comes to thinning. It is less about energy and more about how advanced it is. It is much easier to maintain hair than it is to bring hair back or regrow it. The first step is being aware of what is happening on your head and the next steps could could be one of these.
Below are 4 Men’s Hair Care Tips:
Men’s Hair Care – Take Care of Your Scalp
Your scalp is like fertilizer, you will want to keep that fertilizer healthy so you’ll have healthier and happier hair. One way to do this to use a regular scalp cleanser. A scalp cleanser can help remove buildup from dead cells or styling products that can make it more difficult for hair to grow and contribute to more flaking or dryness. Another benefit of using a scalp treatment could be the act of massaging it into your scalp, which helps with circulation.
Men’s Hair Care – Use a Regular Hair Treatment
When hair starts naturally thinning with age, it’s because the life cycle of the hair has slowed down. The shedding phase gets longer and the growth phase gets shorter which, along with the miniaturization of the hair follicles, can create overall thinning. To combat this, use a hair treatment regularly. Treatment like Rene Furterer Triphastic Progressive Concentrated Serum and Groh Stimulating Scalp Serum.
Men’s Hair Care – Add Oil Back in If You Need It
If your hair dries out quickly even with regular conditioning mask, use a deep conditioning mask, like Briogeo Be Gentle Be Kind Avocado plus Kiwi Mega Moisture Superfoods Hair Mask to regularly replenish moisturize and lock in natural oils. Another option is to use argan oil or coconut oil every couple of weeks or even once a week. These oils have been shown to be beneficial for hair, but can possibly clog the hair follicles on your scalp leading to breakouts if you use too much.
Men’s hair care – Use New Hair Styling Products
As your hair changes, whether it’s thinning or drying out, the styling products you’ve been using may not work as well. It’s time to switch it up and look for lighter weight products that won’t weigh your hair down with heavy oils or waxes. Thick pomades and gels can actually make thin hair look thinner; instead focus on volumizing products that give a natural hold.
