Eating Right
Eating a healthy diet is essential if you want to take care of your hair and keep it shiny and soft and full.

Taking Supplements
You should also be taking supplements if you want your fine hair to grow faster and to look amazingly soft and shiny.

Don’t Wash Your Hair Often
The biggest mistake that people with fine hair make is watching it too much. When you wash your hair often with harsh shampoo you can strip all the natural oils out of your hair and leave it unprotected against styling damage, weather, and other problems. According to hair experts you should not be washing your hair every day unless you are an athlete and are working out hard every day. For most people stylists recommend washing your hair once or twice a week only. If your fine hair has a tendency to get oily you can use a dry shampoo to soak up the oil and make your hair look soft and healthy between shampoos.
Condition First
You were probably taught that the proper way to wash your hair is to use shampoo and give your hair a good scrubbing then condition it so that it is soft and easy to manage. But that’s entirely wrong. Even though it seems counterintuitive to use conditioner first and then wash your hair according to hair experts that’s exactly what you should be doing if you have fine hair. Fine hair can be damaged by overzealous shampooing and conditioner isn’t always enough to fix the damage. When you condition your hair first the conditioner softens the hair and make it less prone to breakage and tearing when you are shampooing it. Make sure that you are using a shampoo designed for fine hair also so that you aren’t using a very harsh shampoo that can strip or damage your fine hair.
Get Regular Haircuts
When you have fine hair and don’t get it cut regularly it will start to look limp and sad. For limp hair, regular haircuts are essential even if you just get regular trims. Trimming off split ends and cleaning up the layers in your hair will keep your hair looking thick and full. If you have a haircut where your hair is stacked or heavily layers you need to get those layers recut frequently so that they don’t grow out and leave your hair all one length and looking sad and flat.
Limp hair can be gorgeous hair if you take supplements, eat a healthy diet, take care of your hair, and make sure that you wear your hair in a style that is designed to make fine hair look fantastic. There are many solutions and short hairstyles for fine hair. Everyone’s hair grows differently so you must find what works for you and looks best on you.
