My hair was damaged from bleach but now it's so thick and long – it's all thanks to the simple weekly step I never miss
A WOMAN has shared the weekly routine she swears by to keep her locks healthy and thick. Fleur Green, from the UK, took to social media to share the routine and the hair oils she swears by. 2 2 In the clip, she said: "I've gone from essentially a long bleached blonde, snapped off bob to Rapunzel." "I'm gonna show you the products which I've used consistently, which has helped me achieve this," Fleur added. First, the hair whizz gave her hair a brush to get rid of any tangles. Next, she took two hair oils - rosemary and batana oil and blended them together. She put them in a hair oiling tool that allows you to comb it through your scalp with ease. "Batana oil is super rich in antioxidants and fatty acids," she explained. "So if you're somebody like me who used to suffer with super dry, brittle hair, or like you've run your fingers through it and it'd be super prone to snapping off, this cocktail of hair oils is gonna be amazing for you." Fleur used Nature's Spells hair oils, which are already diluted to make them safe to apply to the scalp. She evenly applied the oil to her scalp before using her fingers to massage it in and promote blood circulation. Any leftover oil was then applied to the ends of her hair. Fleur then went on to use a hair mask on the rest of her hair before putting it into a low ponytail and letting the products sit for a few hours. The beauty fan said the combination had kept her hair thick and healthy and people were eager to try it out. The clip went viral on her TikTok account @ fleureleanorgreen with over 2.5 million views. One person wrote: "You got me to get the batana oil, I've noticed the difference already." Hair loss tips We can lose between 50 and 100 hairs a day, according to the NHS. It is not usually something to worry about, but occasional it can be a sign of a medical concern. These include illness, stress, cancer treatment, weight loss and iron deficiency. The NHS advises to book an appointment with your GP to see if you can get to the cause of it. Experts at American Academy of Dermatology Association also recommend to eat healthy, limit curling irons and only use them for special occasions. They also recommend using a gentle shampoo, and make use of leave-in conditioners. Another commented: 'You have the most incredible hair girl." "Absolutely love these hair oils and hair brush," penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "Wow need to copy this routine." "Your hair is unreal,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: 'Hair oiling has helped my hair grow so much faster I fear I have too much now."

My hair is the healthiest it's ever been thanks to a crucial step everyone skips – it's so thick & long with zero damage
A WOMAN has revealed the secret behind her thick and healthy hair - and chances are, you've probably never done it. We all know by now that shampooing is a must when it comes to maintaining a healthy mane - but according to one beauty buff, Claudia Silva, there's a step many of us skip. 2 While haircare experts often advise us to only shampoo our scalp, the real-life Rapunzel Claudia recently explained why she also shampoos her hair from top to bottom. To make it even more effective and ensure the hair follicles are cleansed thoroughly, Claudia also uses a brush to go over her long locks. Despite some assuming this unusual step is ''damaging'' for the tresses, Claudia recently took to TikTok where she proved everyone wrong. ''I'm giving myself so many split ends, I'm drying my hair out so much - and this is all because I like to brush shampoo through my hair. ''These are 90% of the comments that I receive daily whenever I post a hair brushing video. ''It is not true - my hair is actually the healthiest it's ever been. ''If it was damaging my hair, of course I would stop doing it,'' she told fellow beauty buffs in the video. Claudia - who reminded that it's never ''one size fits all'' - added that now her favourite thing about her tresses is how ''full and thick'' the ends are. ''I have a few pet peeves when it comes to hair and one of them is long hair with thin ends - I cannot stand that.'' 'It's made such a difference!' Since being posted online, the video has won Claudia more than 560k views in just two days, with dozens flooding to comments. 'It's one of the best I've ever tried' cries Dealz shopper over Marc Jacobs dupe - and it's a steal at €4.50 While many may have not come across this step up until now, there were plenty of those who also swore by the brushing method. One social media user claimed they've noticed epic results thanks to the easy step. ''I've started brushing shampoo after seeing your videos. It's made such a difference! How often should you be washing your hair? Anabel Kingsley, Consultant Trichologist and Brand President at Philip Kingsley spoke exclusively to Fabulous. You take your hair and scalp to the same places you take your face, and it gets just as dirty. Your scalp is also a living tissue; it sweats, produces oils and sheds skin cells. You wouldn't leave two days between washing your face, and you likely wouldn't wear the same outfit more than a few times before washing it – apply the same thinking to your hair. It is a myth that washing your hair too often causes your hair to get greasier. ''My blow dries last longer and hair is less oily and weighed down.'' Another chimed in: ''I feel like your hair smells so FRESH AND CLEAN.'' A third wrote: ''honestly ever since i tried brushing my shampoo and i never really looked back!'' ''I've been doing this for the longest time with my shampoo and conditioner, my hair has never been better,'' commented a viewer.
