Healthy-looking hair comes down to a few habits and the right products for your hair type. You do not need a shelf full of bottles.

Wash less than you think

Washing every single day can strip your scalp's natural oils. For most people, two to four times a week is plenty. On off days, a quick rinse is fine.

Condition where it counts

Apply conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends, not the roots. This keeps your hair soft without making it look greasy at the top.

Style with a light hand

• Start with less product than you think you need. You can always add more.
• Choose a matte product for a natural look or a pomade for more shine and hold.
• Get regular trims to keep your shape sharp, even if you are growing it out.

A daily photo makes it easy to see which cut and styling habits actually look best on you over time.
