Cleanliness is next to Godliness as it is said.The body is a gift given to man to serve the purpose of operating functions like walking,moving,looking,hearing and seeing.

To maintain a good hair hygiene,one must ensure to clean his/her body.

1. Wash your hair at least once a week with a shampoo and then apply treatment.Men should not wash hair daily as it reduces the natural oil and makes the scalp dry and flaky.

2. Nearly hot water should be used on the hair as it washes off the applied shampoo and treatment together with the dirt.

3. Comb or style your hair after applying oil. Use oils which contain olive and palm ingredients for an ever healthy,shiny looking,long hair.This is so for people with dreadlocks,long hair and chemicated hair.

4. Avoid too much heat on the hair originating from blow-drys or staying in the drier,it make the hair become thin and weak.It also makes it to have split ends.

5. For those who stay with wigs,weaves and all the other additional hairs,do not stay with it for more than one month,it stinks after that.

6. On removing the additional hair, relax your hair for at least a week to give it fresh air and time to grow.

7. Sensitive scalps should be given special treatment,apply medication and do not plait your hair often.

8. Wash the combs with warm soapy water every week.

9. Apply a spray leave in conditioner daily if you can afford to keep your hair smelling good.

10. Do not share combs it might cause infections such as ringworms.
