We all love our hair and do a lot of things to take care of it. We wash them regularly, condition them and even apply hair products. But more than styling, strengthening your hair is important. Here are a few simple tips that can give you beautiful and stronger hair.

1. Most important is to have a balanced diet. Have food that is high in protein and iron. Foods that are rich in essential fatty acids help hair growth.
2. Drink a lot of water. This will help you stay hydrated and in turn strengthen your hair.
3. Massage your scalp nicely. This helps improve circulation and brings out the natural oils.
4. Always use a wide tooth comb to comb your hair, especially when you are trying to untangle knots. This will ensure that your hair does not get pulled and become weak.
5. Do not tie your hair in tight braids or a pony. This also leads to weakening of hair.
6. If you have dry hair, do not wash them daily as this will strip them of their natural oils. Natural oils help build the strength of your hair.
7.  Also, do not use a hair dryer on very high heating and hold it at a distance from your head when drying your hair.
8. Always wear a cap while swimming as chlorine can damage your hair.
9. Avoid smoking as it leads to decreased blood flow. This affects the strength of your hair.
10. Try meditation if you are stressed, as stress is a major cause of weak hair.
