Myth 3: Hair Will Always Remain The Same Texture
Untrue. “Obviously your strands do not remain same in quality and texture
as they were when you were a baby,” points out Contractor. “And different
hair cuts bring out varying textures.” So though you may be born with
straight, curly or wavy locks, there are many circumstances under which
your hair’s ultimate texture can be permanently altered. Pregnancy,
medication, chemotherapy, age and other variables can also cause temporary
or permanent alteration.
Myth 4: Blow-Drying Hair Can Cause It To Smoke
Untrue. “Unless of course, there is some residue in your hair like oil,
grease or unrinsed conditioner,” says Contractor. On rare occasions that
your hair smokes, it may also be due to the evaporation of condensation on
the hair owing to generously applied styling gels or similar hair care
products. So get your hair clean to kiss away the smoky blues.
Myth 5: Washing Hair Every Day Dries It Out
Untrue. “Better to have clean hair than dirty, unhealthy hair,” points out
Contractor. You must use a shampoo that is appropriate for your hair type
and follow up with the right conditioner. The correct shampoo will
actually add moisture, body and beauty to your hair. The catchword here is
‘correct’. Consult your hair stylist.
