11 Golden Rules Everyone with Long Hair Should Commit to Memory Right Now

Long hair has different needs

Lengthy locks need more care than shorter tresses. For starters, long hair is more prone to tangles—especially if it’s fine or color treated (here’s how you should take care of thin hair). It’s also more apt to get involved in daily wear and tear—from getting tangled in a scarf to needing to be tied up during workouts. And the longer it gets, the more fragile it can become, so you need to be extra gentle. Simply put: Long hair is special and needs to be treated as such.
