Long hair can be both beautiful and really difficult to care for, all at the same time. It’s taken you ages to grow and naturally you want your hair to look its best so here’s how....

· Hair grows on average 1 to 2 cms per month

· Diet, lifestyle and medication all affect your hair so start on the inside. Make sure you have a balanced and nutritious diet – eat lots of fruit and vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds and lean protein

· Even if you are still trying to grow your hair even longer, get those split ends trimmed regularly

· Use professional products which are specially formulated for long hair

· If your hair is dry but your scalp is oily, apply conditioner to the ends only

· Protect your hair from the sun by wearing a hat or bandana. You wouldn’t go out in the sun without sun cream so apply plenty of a specially formulated sun screen to your hair

· Don’t use elastic bands to tie your hair back – they will break your hair

· When you blow dry your hair, avoid a very hot heat. Always comb out your hair with a wide toothed comb when it is wet and try to avoid pulling and tugging

· If you use straighteners, apply a professional product which will help to protect your hair from the intense heat

· If you suffer from static, rub a sheet of fabric conditioner on your hair to help control those fly away hairs or spray some hairspray on your brush and brush it through your hair Click here for shampoos, conditioners, styling products and heat protectors developed especially for long hair
