Good day to each and every one you here in #steemingcommunity. I thank @steemingcuration for making this contest possible and am here to give you my entry. Hope you like it.👌✌

There are several ways to care for hair, so I will be dropping only a few of them. But then, why do we care for our hair? This also will lead to several reasons that may include

  • avoiding greying early
  • avoiding balding
  • looking good etc

So the how can one care for his/her hair.

1. APPLY NATURAL OIL ON THE HAIR

Using a warm, natural oil on one's hair can do wonders for scalp health, hair health and texture, and stimulate general wellness too. Examples of such includes may include:
COCONUT OIL:

This is an age-old remedy that has stood the test of time. It works on all hair types, is locally available and affordable. It removes dandruff, softens the hair, repairs split-ends and boosts hair growth. It also protects the hair from losing protein.Source

CASTOR OIL:

The oil gotten from castor seeds has many health benefits including hair health. It is a great moisturiser and helps prevent the scalp from flaking. It also reduces breakage at the roots, by providing nourishment and lubrication.Source

2. USING RICE WATER AS A SHAMPOO AND A RINSE

The village of Huangluo in China, the home to native Red Yao women, is in the Guinness Book of Records as the "world’s longest hair village".

The women here boast long, lustrous and healthy hair that is consistently maintained. So what is the secret to their fabulously-maintained hair? It is simply an ancient but extremely simple Chinese remedy – "rice water!" Rice water used as a natural shampoo and rinse clearly works wonders. Rice water has a multitude of components with nutritional value for the hair.
Around 16 percent of these are proteins, the building blocks essential to cell health. Triglycerides and lipids each make up 10 percent of the rice water composition, while starch is present at 9 percent. Carbohydrates, inositol, phytic acid and inorganic substances are other components in rice water. This is what you get when you boil an average handful of white rice in two cups of hot water and strain out the residue liquid.Source

3. EGGS

Eggs contributes to overall hair health. An egg mask is perhaps one of the most potent remedies for healthy hair, and for one very good reason – it is the best source of B Vitamins, which is essential for hair health! Vitamins B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin) and B5 (pantothenic acid) are good for hair flexibility, strength and overall wellness. Biotin or Vitamin B7 is especially essential for hair growth, while folic acid can help avoid premature
greying. Using both the yolk and the white. The yolk works as a moisturiser for dry locks and is also a superfood due to the multitude of nutrients. What’s more, it helps retains the hair’s natural sheen thanks to its moisturising benefits.

HOW TO APPLY?
Crack open two eggs, and then beat its contents well in a bowl. Apply all over hair and scalp and leave on for ten minutes. Rinse well and follow up with your usual shampoo and conditioner regime. Find out how you can make these masks. Source

4. AMLA / INDIAN GOOSEBERRY

Applying a paste of crushed amala for hair care can also do magic for your hair.
The humble amla or Indian gooseberry is a miracle fruit and is often included in hair products, hair tonics and medical streams. Vitamin C in amala helps produce collagen protein, which boosts cell regeneration, stimulates both hair length and volume. Amala contains over 80 percent moisture, and so has hydrating properties. It is a natural scalp cleanser, removes germs, and is also an antioxidant, preventing hair greying and damage. source

5. HEALTHY DIET

Hair health also has to do with take into your system, since it eventually reflects on what’s above! The ‘live’ part of the hair is housed in the follicle, and just like the other organs, derives nutrition from food and the bloodstream. So if you find yourself nutrient-deficient, you’ll find your hair instantly looking lacklustre, dull and thin.
Protein is the building block of healthy hair since it holds each strand together! The hair itself is made up of a protein called keratin, and yours tends to be stripped off it with everyday styling, pollution and stress. Increase the protein levels in your diet by consuming a diet rich in dairy. Omega 3 fatty acids are also essential to keep your scalp and hair follicles from drying out, reducing inflammation (which is a major cause of hair shedding) and promoting hair growth. Male pattern balding and hair loss in women is often associated with insulin resistance, which in turn is a byproduct of Omega 3 deficiencies.Source

6. CONSTANT HYDRATION

The Human body works fine when is frequently hydrated so keep the body hydrated by taking in fluids. Fluids such as Coconut water contains electrolytes, which help move nutrients into the hair follicle cells.
