]]> Working out is great for your overall health, but it can be tricky to keep your hair looking its best when exercise is part of your daily routine. Sweat combined with product buildup can quickly leave your hair looking dull, damaged, and lifeless. If this sounds like you, know that all isn’t lost. With a little bit of effort and the right techniques, you can maintain healthy, shiny hair even on your sweatiest days. Read on for some of our go-to tips and tricks. 

Deep Clean

Starting with a clean palette is the most important step for maintaining healthy, lustrous hair for days at a time, especially when you sweat regularly. When it comes time to wash your hair, focus on massaging the shampoo into your scalp and wash twice to make sure any oil and buildup from hair care products is completely gone.

Plan Accordingly

Schedule workouts like cardio that make you sweat most on the days you plan to wash your hair. On days between washes, stick with activities that aren’t so sweat-inducing, such as yoga or weight training. Take rest days when your hair is freshly washed.

Use The Right Products

For those in-between days where you may sweat a little but your hair doesn’t quite feel ready for a wash, use dry shampoo to help soak up oil and keep your hair looking fresh and clean. Tie your hair back using a silk hair tie or scrunchie, and wear a sweat-absorbing headband during your workout.

]]> Whether you swim for exercise or fun, in a pool or an ocean, the fact of the matter is: it can damage your hair. Chlorine from pools, or salt water from the ocean, can dry out your hair. This leaves it more prone to breakage and frizz. Here are some ways to protect your hair when swimming often.

Wear a Swim Cap

The tried and true method to protect your hair while swimming is wearing a swim cap. Although it might not be the most flattering option, it’s the only thing that will truly protect your hair from any damage.

Oil or Leave-In Conditioner Before

If swim caps aren’t your thing, you can also put oil or a leave-in conditioner in your hair prior to swimming. This creates a protective barrier around your hair, which will help prevent the chemicals or salt from penetrating the hair strands. Although this doesn’t protect it completely, it certainly helps.

Rinse Before and After Swimming

If you have no other options, the best thing you can do is to rinse your hair with clean water before and after you swim. When your hair absorbs the clean water, it prevents the hair from absorbing some of the harsh elements of the water you will be swimming in.

Thankfully, we have some of the best hairstyles that are sure to stay in place during the sweatiest workouts (and stay looking cute). 

High Bubble Braid Ponytail

If you just absolutely need your hair off your neck, sometimes a high pony isn’t enough. Turning your high pony into a bubble braid is the perfect solution. All you have to do is put your hair into your regular slicked-back high pony (be sure to secure any flyaways that want to escape!). Then, take smaller bands and tie them going down the length of the ponytail in 1-2 inch sections. Continue until you run out of hair!

French Braids

French braids aren’t just great for camp, they’re also super practical for the gym. Sometimes regular braids still allow fallout throughout a workout, but French braids keep your hair against your scalp. This style is especially good if you have a lot of angles or layers that tend to escape from other hairstyles!

Sleek Low Bun

If you simply don’t have the time or patience to braid your hair, a low bun will always do the trick. It keeps the hair off of your back and won’t get in the way if you are doing any exercises that require lying on your back!

]]> We all know about the main macronutrients, protein, carbs, and fat, but how much do you know about the micronutrients your body needs? Iron is a mineral that is important for your muscles and body functioning, and iron deficiency is really common in most adults. Some of the most common symptoms of iron deficiency include cold hands and feet and fatigue, and you will have fewer healthy red blood cells available.

To make sure you are getting the right amount of iron per day, you want to make sure to be eating iron-rich foods which include animal protein, beans, seafood, oats, and leafy greens. For those on a plant-based diet, you might want to make sure you eat more foods with vitamin C, which enhances iron absorption. Here are the benefits of eating iron-rich foods.

Supports Your Body

Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin which transports oxygen into your blood from your lungs, this is very important for your day-to-day body processes and immune system function. Iron also plays a role in the healthy function of the thyroid gland and regulating many hormones in your body.

Healthy Hair, Skin, and Nails

Iron is also important for the synthesis of connective tissue which has an effect on your hair skin and nails. If you have noticed your skin has lost its glow or your nails are breaking a lot, it would be worth checking your iron levels.

Supports Your Muscles

The level of iron in your body may affect your aerobic ability and strength because if oxygen is not able to circulate quickly through your body, this might make you feel tired and weak.

]]> Hair can be a fun way to express yourself, especially if you usually wear it down or over your face. But when you work out it may become kind of a hassle, getting in your eyes, making your face and neck sweaty, or even getting caught in workout equipment! Here’s how to get your hair out of the way for different styles and activities.

Wrap it in a Bun

If you have long hair and you work with equipment or around other people, a ponytail may not be enough. Long hair can still get caught in equipment or your clothing. If you take a workout class or otherwise work out with people around, you even risk whipping other people in the face when you jump or turn your head! Put it back in a not-too-tight bun to keep you and your fellow gym-mates safe.

Invest in Clips

If you have bangs or hair that falls into your face, you’ll probably want to clip it back. A really good headband might also do the trick, but headbands tend to migrate backward with movement. Especially if you have short hair that you can’t put up, clipping your bangs back from your face is a sure-fire way to keep them where you want them.

Braid It (If You Use a Helmet)

If your workout of choice involves putting something on your head like a hat or a helmet, a ponytail or bun will make getting it on difficult. A braid is the perfect way to keep your hair back with something else on your head. You can also do a French braid to keep it tight!

]]> Bangs can be super stylish and really frame your face, but they can also be a total nightmare when you’re working out. They trap sweat underneath them, making your face oily and giving you obvious post-workout hair every single time. So what’s a gym rat to do? Just give up and grow out your bangs? Absolutely not. These tips will help you have the best of both worlds.

Dry Shampoo

Putting up your bangs while working out with a clip can create weird bends and texture in them, which is why our preferred method is to leave our bangs down while exercising and spruce them up with some dry shampoo afterward. You can keep a travel-sized bottle in your gym bag and always be covered.

Real Shampoo

Even better, if you have time, the ideal situation is to give your bangs a quick shampoo and blow-dry after your workout. You can even just wet them in the bathroom sink to freshen them up if for whatever reason you don’t have time to shower.

Thick Headbands

If you tend to get forehead acne or it just bothers you to have hair in your face while exercising, you can use a thick headband to keep your bangs out of your face during your workout.

]]> Besides the usual workout equipment you need whenever you want to get active, having natural hair requires you to have a hairstyle that won’t bother you while working out. Here are some of the most convenient hairstyles you can try day after day.

Box Braids

Having box braids allows you to always have styled hair, before and after any workout! Choose mini braids or box braids, whichever works best for you. Box braids can be a bit heavy, but they are so easy to style when you want to get active and after you’re finished. Go with mini braids for a lighter option.

Top Knot

Top knots are a cute hairstyle and always a good idea. You can make it in no time when you’re in a rush and continue your day after you’re done with the workout. With a little bit of practice, you can learn how to make a perfect top knot in seconds.

Dutch Braids

Make them in the morning and you’ll have a beautiful and functional hairstyle all day long. Choose to braid your hair all the way down or leave the ends unbraided. If you want to take the braids out after the workout, you will be left with gorgeous waves.

]]> Any type of exercise can always wreak havoc on our tresses. It’s important to maintain their healthy glow, since after a few hours at the gym, our locks can turn lackluster and dry. One of the most overlooked things we do is that we don’t give our hair the extra attention it needs.

Here are some ways to take care of your hair after you have worked out.

Dab Some Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is a great moisturizing oil to use, it has a low comedogenic level which makes it not only good for our skin, but also perfect for our hair! It contains high levels of Vitamin E which promote hair growth. It’s also packed with B Vitamins to repair damaged hair and doesn’t have a strong lingering scent. Apply some at the ends of your hair after the gym to restore your locks.

Make Dry Shampoo Your Best Friend

For great post-workout gym hair, make sure to not always wash your hair right after (even though you may feel like you want to). The best solution for messy hair is to add some dry shampoo since it doesn’t leave a residue and it will absorb the oils in your hair that come out when you exercise. Make sure to store a bottle in your gym bag for easy access.

]]> Brushing your hair is a practice that men and women do to make it look like they didn’t roll out of bed first thing in the morning. It’s also great for stimulating the roots of your hair to make them grow longer and healthier.

It all comes down to what kind of brush you’re using to get luscious and silky hair. Generic brushes found in convenience stores can cause more damage than benefits to your hair. Also, using synthetic bristles can cause more friction on the hair causing the hair to fall out quicker. For hair that looks beautiful for weeks on end, keep a regular beauty regime of upkeeping your hair.

Detangle First

Before brushing your hair, make sure to detangle it so you won’t be ripping out the hairs. Often times when brushing hair, we can be quite rushed. Taking time to detangle your hair will make the brushing experience much easier.

The Right Brush

The right brush to use is one that has natural bristles. Boar bristle brushes are considered the best kind for your hair since they’re gentle enough not to cause any additional breakage. It also leaves your hair looking more shiny and baby soft to the touch.

Incorporate a Scalp Massage

In addition to using your regular boar bristle brush, try doing a scalp massage to stimulate your sebaceous glands. This method gives your head more circulation which means there’s more blood flowing to your head. This, in turn, will help your hair grow faster. Just make sure to be gentle on your scalp when you massage it. Yes, even your head needs a good massage every now and then.

Pan-seared salmon with soy-maple glaze, so simple and so good with steaming bowl of jasmine rice. __________________ Serves 2-ish: Cut 1 lb. of salmon into ½ inch slices. In a hot cast iron pan (or nonstick pan), add some neutral oil and sear the salmon slices on medium-high heat (in batches if necessary as you don’t want to crowd the pan), about 2-3 min on one side, flip and cook for about 30 sec-1 min on the other side. __________________ Meanwhile, stir together ¼ cup EACH of soy sauce, real maple syrup and unseasoned rice vinegar in a small saucepan. While the salmon is cooking, bring soy sauce mixture to a boil on med-high heat, reduce heat and let cook for about 2-3-ish minutes or until slightly reduced. It should sort of coat a spoon and seem to have thickened just a bit. Keep in mind that the glaze will slightly thicken more as it cools down. __________________ Place salmon on serving plates, drizzle sauce all over, top with scallions + sesame and serve with hot rice 🍚

Iron is also important for the synthesis of connective tissue which has an effect on your hair skin and nails. If you have noticed your skin has lost its glow or your nails are breaking a lot, it would be worth checking your iron levels.

Supports Your Muscles

The level of iron in your body may affect your aerobic ability and strength because if oxygen is not able to circulate quickly through your body, this might make you feel tired and weak.

]]> Hair can be a fun way to express yourself, especially if you usually wear it down or over your face. But when you work out it may become kind of a hassle, getting in your eyes, making your face and neck sweaty, or even getting caught in workout equipment! Here’s how to get your hair out of the way for different styles and activities.

Wrap it in a Bun

If you have long hair and you work with equipment or around other people, a ponytail may not be enough. Long hair can still get caught in equipment or your clothing. If you take a workout class or otherwise work out with people around, you even risk whipping other people in the face when you jump or turn your head! Put it back in a not-too-tight bun to keep you and your fellow gym-mates safe.

Invest in Clips

If you have bangs or hair that falls into your face, you’ll probably want to clip it back. A really good headband might also do the trick, but headbands tend to migrate backward with movement. Especially if you have short hair that you can’t put up, clipping your bangs back from your face is a sure-fire way to keep them where you want them.

Braid It (If You Use a Helmet)

If your workout of choice involves putting something on your head like a hat or a helmet, a ponytail or bun will make getting it on difficult. A braid is the perfect way to keep your hair back with something else on your head. You can also do a French braid to keep it tight!

]]> Bangs can be super stylish and really frame your face, but they can also be a total nightmare when you’re working out. They trap sweat underneath them, making your face oily and giving you obvious post-workout hair every single time. So what’s a gym rat to do? Just give up and grow out your bangs? Absolutely not. These tips will help you have the best of both worlds.

Dry Shampoo

Putting up your bangs while working out with a clip can create weird bends and texture in them, which is why our preferred method is to leave our bangs down while exercising and spruce them up with some dry shampoo afterward. You can keep a travel-sized bottle in your gym bag and always be covered.

Real Shampoo

Even better, if you have time, the ideal situation is to give your bangs a quick shampoo and blow-dry after your workout. You can even just wet them in the bathroom sink to freshen them up if for whatever reason you don’t have time to shower.

Thick Headbands

If you tend to get forehead acne or it just bothers you to have hair in your face while exercising, you can use a thick headband to keep your bangs out of your face during your workout.

]]> Besides the usual workout equipment you need whenever you want to get active, having natural hair requires you to have a hairstyle that won’t bother you while working out. Here are some of the most convenient hairstyles you can try day after day.

Box Braids

Having box braids allows you to always have styled hair, before and after any workout! Choose mini braids or box braids, whichever works best for you. Box braids can be a bit heavy, but they are so easy to style when you want to get active and after you’re finished. Go with mini braids for a lighter option.

Top Knot

Top knots are a cute hairstyle and always a good idea. You can make it in no time when you’re in a rush and continue your day after you’re done with the workout. With a little bit of practice, you can learn how to make a perfect top knot in seconds.

Dutch Braids

Make them in the morning and you’ll have a beautiful and functional hairstyle all day long. Choose to braid your hair all the way down or leave the ends unbraided. If you want to take the braids out after the workout, you will be left with gorgeous waves.

]]> Any type of exercise can always wreak havoc on our tresses. It’s important to maintain their healthy glow, since after a few hours at the gym, our locks can turn lackluster and dry. One of the most overlooked things we do is that we don’t give our hair the extra attention it needs.

Here are some ways to take care of your hair after you have worked out.

Dab Some Jojoba Oil

Jojoba oil is a great moisturizing oil to use, it has a low comedogenic level which makes it not only good for our skin, but also perfect for our hair! It contains high levels of Vitamin E which promote hair growth. It’s also packed with B Vitamins to repair damaged hair and doesn’t have a strong lingering scent. Apply some at the ends of your hair after the gym to restore your locks.

Make Dry Shampoo Your Best Friend

For great post-workout gym hair, make sure to not always wash your hair right after (even though you may feel like you want to). The best solution for messy hair is to add some dry shampoo since it doesn’t leave a residue and it will absorb the oils in your hair that come out when you exercise. Make sure to store a bottle in your gym bag for easy access.

]]> Brushing your hair is a practice that men and women do to make it look like they didn’t roll out of bed first thing in the morning. It’s also great for stimulating the roots of your hair to make them grow longer and healthier.

It all comes down to what kind of brush you’re using to get luscious and silky hair. Generic brushes found in convenience stores can cause more damage than benefits to your hair. Also, using synthetic bristles can cause more friction on the hair causing the hair to fall out quicker. For hair that looks beautiful for weeks on end, keep a regular beauty regime of upkeeping your hair.

Detangle First

Before brushing your hair, make sure to detangle it so you won’t be ripping out the hairs. Often times when brushing hair, we can be quite rushed. Taking time to detangle your hair will make the brushing experience much easier.

The Right Brush

The right brush to use is one that has natural bristles. Boar bristle brushes are considered the best kind for your hair since they’re gentle enough not to cause any additional breakage. It also leaves your hair looking more shiny and baby soft to the touch.

Incorporate a Scalp Massage

In addition to using your regular boar bristle brush, try doing a scalp massage to stimulate your sebaceous glands. This method gives your head more circulation which means there’s more blood flowing to your head. This, in turn, will help your hair grow faster. Just make sure to be gentle on your scalp when you massage it. Yes, even your head needs a good massage every now and then.

Pan-seared salmon with soy-maple glaze, so simple and so good with steaming bowl of jasmine rice. __________________ Serves 2-ish: Cut 1 lb. of salmon into ½ inch slices. In a hot cast iron pan (or nonstick pan), add some neutral oil and sear the salmon slices on medium-high heat (in batches if necessary as you don’t want to crowd the pan), about 2-3 min on one side, flip and cook for about 30 sec-1 min on the other side. __________________ Meanwhile, stir together ¼ cup EACH of soy sauce, real maple syrup and unseasoned rice vinegar in a small saucepan. While the salmon is cooking, bring soy sauce mixture to a boil on med-high heat, reduce heat and let cook for about 2-3-ish minutes or until slightly reduced. It should sort of coat a spoon and seem to have thickened just a bit. Keep in mind that the glaze will slightly thicken more as it cools down. __________________ Place salmon on serving plates, drizzle sauce all over, top with scallions + sesame and serve with hot rice 🍚
