How to Strengthen Your Hair — Simple Tips That Actually Work


Whether you're trying to grow your hair, recover from damage, or simply want it to feel stronger and healthier, you're not alone. At Hair & Soul Wellness Hub in Lilydale, many of our clients ask the same question: “How do I make my hair stronger?”

Here are our top professional tips for healthier, stronger hair.

1. Don’t Over wash

Washing your hair too often can strip away natural oils that protect and nourish your scalp and strands. Aim to wash two to three times per week, depending on your hair type and lifestyle.

2. Choose Strengthening Products

Look for shampoos and conditioners that contain ingredients like biotin, keratin, or argan oil. These help rebuild and support your hair’s natural structure.

At our salon, we use high-quality, professional products. Ask your stylist for a personalised recommendation during your next visit.

3. Trim Regularly

It might seem counterintuitive, but regular trims every six to eight weeks help maintain healthy hair by removing split ends before they cause further breakage.

4. Minimise Heat and Chemical Damage

Excessive use of hot tools, bleach, or harsh treatments can weaken hair over time. Try the following:

  • Use a heat protectant before styling

  • Limit the use of straighteners and curling irons

  • Consider gentler colour services like foil highlights instead of all-over bleach

5. Nourish From Within

Hair strength often reflects overall health. Make sure you're:

  • Drinking enough water

  • Eating a balanced diet rich in protein, iron, and healthy fats

  • Getting essential vitamins like vitamin D and zinc

6. Treat Yourself to Deep Conditioning

We offer nourishing deep conditioning and scalp treatments at Hair & Soul Wellness Hub. These treatments restore moisture, boost strength, and help revive tired or damaged hair. Many clients notice a visible difference after just one session.
