1. Using harsh shampoos
🚫 To avoid : Shampoos containing sulfates, silicones, parabens and other chemicals that dry out the scalp and damage the hair fiber.
✅ Tip : Choose the Basic shampoo , suitable for all hair types. Wash them in moderation (2 to 3 times a week maximum).
2. Neglecting hydration and nutrition
🚫 To avoid : Leaving your hair without moisturizing or nourishing care, especially if you have dry, curly or frizzy hair.
✅ Tip : Alternate between Intense Hydration Spray for hydration and Intense Hydration Serum for nutrition for supple and shiny hair.
3. Brushing hair roughly
🚫 To avoid : Dry detangling your hair or using an unsuitable brush, which causes breakage and the appearance of knots.
✅ Tip : Use a wide-toothed comb or a natural bristle brush , start at the ends and work your way up to the roots, preferably on damp hair with Or'Hair detangling and purifying spray .
4. Overusing heating devices
🚫 To avoid : Excessive use of hair dryers, straighteners or curling irons, which weaken the hair fiber.
✅ Tip : Limit their use and always apply Or'Hair heat protector before use. Let your hair air dry as much as possible.
5. Not protecting your hair at night
🚫 To avoid : Sleeping with your hair down on a cotton pillowcase, which encourages friction and breaks the lengths.
✅ Tip : Tie your hair in a loose braid or low bun and use an Or'Hair satin pillowcase or bonnet to reduce friction.
6. Washing your hair with water that is too hot
🚫 To avoid : Hot water opens the hair scales too much and dries them out.
✅ Tip : Rinse your hair with lukewarm or cold water to tighten the scales and add more shine.
7. Exposing your hair to the sun without protection
🚫 To avoid : UV rays dry out and weaken the hair fiber.
✅ Tip : Apply Or'Hair protective oil or wear a hat in case of prolonged exposure.
8. Tying your hair too tight
🚫 To avoid : Hairstyles that are too tight (buns, braids, ponytails) which weaken the roots and promote breakage.
✅ Tip : Choose flexible hair ties and metal-free elastics to avoid excessive pulling on the hair.
9. Neglecting the scalp
🚫 To avoid : Not taking care of your scalp can lead to dandruff, itching and hair loss.
✅ Tip : Regularly massage your scalp with a Basic Serum or a Growth and Strength Serum to activate blood circulation and promote growth.
10. Doing too much chemical coloring
🚫 To avoid : Frequent coloring and bleaching damages hair by making it dry and brittle.
✅ Tip : Choose natural colors like henna or space out chemical colorings to limit damage.
Taking care of your hair means adopting a natural, gentle routine that is adapted to your hair's needs. Less aggression, more moisturizing and nourishing care , and your hair will stay healthy!
