How to incubate hair to help hair become strong and reduce breakage

NGUYỄN LY |

Incubating hair overnight or incubating for too long may seem to help hair become softer and smoother, but in reality it can make hair weak, easily sticky and break down.

According to experts, how to incubate hair on time and with the right type of product is the factor that helps nourish hair to be strong and healthy.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, damaged hair often stems from heat, chemicals, or improper care. One of the common mistakes is leaving the conditioner on the hair for too long, thinking that the nutrients will absorb better. In fact, this can cause hair to lose its natural elasticity, especially for thin and oily hair.

Experts recommend incubating hair for 5-15 minutes depending on the product, focusing on the body and ends instead of the scalp. For dry, frizzy hair, you can choose incubators containing keratin, argan oil or plant protein to support recovery. Meanwhile, oily hair should prioritize thin and light products, avoiding clogging the scalp.

Wrapping a warm towel when incubating hair can help nutrients absorb evenly without prolonging the incubation time. In addition, rinsing the product thoroughly after incubation is also very important to limit the accumulation of chemicals on hair and scalp.

Besides hair incubation, nutrition also greatly affects hair health. Protein, iron, zinc and omega-3 play an important role in the hair follicle development process. People with frequent hair loss should supplement fish, eggs, green vegetables and nuts in their daily diet.

Experts note that if hair loss is prolonged or accompanied by itching and scalp peeling, people should go for an examination to determine the cause instead of abusing hair care products.
