In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Brushing your hair is good for increasing hair growth, because it stimulates the scalp and spreads the natural oils throughout the shaft of each strand of hair. However, there are do's and don't's when it comes to brushing your hair. Aim to brush your hair 1-2 times a day (when you wake up and at night, for example). However, be cautious of brushing your hair too much, as this can pull out hair that you're trying to grow. Additionally, never brush your hair when it's wet, because it is most fragile and easy to break in this state. Although it is typically more of an issue for women than men, using hot tools (like blow dryers and flat irons) and chemicals (such as hair dyes and relaxers) will significantly damage your hair. Not only will it make your hair appear frizzy and dull, it will cause your hair to take longer to grow. When at all possible, allow your hair to air-dry and avoid styling it with any tools. Although it may not make your hair look the greatest, the natural oil your scalp produces are imperative for improving hair health and speeding the rate of growth. Washing your hair every day removes these oils, slowing your growth rate. Wash your hair as few times a week as you're able, spacing washings to be at least every-other day. There are certain vitamins and supplements on the market which help increase hair growth. Taken regularly, you should notice an increase in growth each month. Look for Biotin and fish oil - both which increase hair and nail health and growth. You should also make sure that you're caught up with all your regular vitamins and minerals, taking a multivitamin as a supplement if necessary. There are dozens of hair shampoos on the market, each tailored for a different hair type or ultimate style. However, the one consistent ingredient that you should avoid in shampoo is silicone. Although it is advertised as beneficial, silicone will block out moisture and nutrients, hindering hair growth. Look for hair products (shampoo or otherwise) which use natural ingredients and are silicone-free. As said, silicone blocks out moisture and nutrients, so look for a conditioner with natural ingredients. Another option is just to use a leave in conditioner (don't rinse leave in conditioners off). Hot showers may be the most comfortable, but the heat from the water opens the hair shaft of each strand of hair, letting out valuable moisture, making your hair more brittle and prone to damage. When you wash your hair, use the coldest water you can stand. The cool temperature will close the hair shaft and help to trap in the moisture that you would otherwise let out. There's a reason people remark on 'losing hair' when they're stressed; stress, poor diet, and lack of exercise can all lead to hair thinning and slowing the growth of hair. Make necessary lifestyle changes to promote good eating and exercise habits, and cut out stress whenever possible. Water is important for good health in general, but drinking lots of water can help provide your scalp and hair follicles with necessary moisture for increasing growth. Drink 8-10 glasses of water throughout the course of the day to supply your body with adequate moisture. There tend to be two major parties when it comes to hair growth: those who promote regular trims, and those who vow against any hair cutting at all. While they seem to be opposing views, both are right. The reason you trim hair is to either remove length or to remove damage. Since you're trying to grow your hair out, you don't want to trim your hair for the former reason. Instead, hair should be trimmed semi-regularly to cut off damaged ends. This doesn't promote hair growth, but it promotes hair health; long hair that is frizzy and brittle won't look good. Therefore, aim to cut your hair between 1-3 times a year to keep it looking good. When your hair is in that awkward mid-length phase, find ways to style it properly until it grows out more. This might sound strange, but the fabric from most pillowcases (cotton or other low thread-count cases) causes your hair to fall out. The reason being that the "rough" fabric causes friction with your hair, pulling out strands as you sleep. In order to avoid this, swap out your regular pillowcases for satin pillowcases, which are smooth enough to let your hair slide without tugging.
Summary: Know when to brush your hair. Avoid hot tools and chemicals. Change your shower routine. Take supplements for hair growth. Use the right shampoo. Use the right conditioner. Wash your hair with cold water. Maintain good health. Keep hydrated. Know when to cut your hair. Use satin pillowcases.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If the newspaper article has more than one author, list them in the order they appear in the by-line, separated by commas. Type an "and" before the last author's name. The period after the initial also constitutes the closing period at the end of this section. Example: Clark, K. If the article has no author, start your bibliographic entry with the title of the article in sentence-case. Capitalize only the initial word and any proper nouns. Put the year the article was published first, then type a comma. Provide the name of the month in unabbreviated form followed by the day. Close the parentheses and place a period immediately after. Example: Clark, K. (2017, July 17). For articles with new author, put the date in parentheses after the title of the article. After the date, type the title of the article along with any subtitle. Only capitalize the first word and any proper nouns. Place a period at the end, or other punctuation as necessary. Example: Clark, K. (2017, July 17). Villains take over Gotham; Superman stays away. For print newspapers, include the section and page number after the name of the newspaper. The page number is not italicized. Place a period after the page number. If there is no page number, such as if you found the article online, place a period after the name of the newspaper. Example: Clark, K. (2017, July 17). Villains take over Gotham; Superman stays away. The Daily Planet, p. A1. Starting with the words "Retrieved from," let your readers know where you found the article. APA style only requires a URL for the newspaper itself, not a direct permalink to the article itself. Database example: Villains take over Gotham; Superman stays away. The Daily Planet, p. A1. Retrieved from Collected DC News. URL example: Villains take over Gotham; Superman stays away. The Daily Planet, p. A1. Retrieved from http://www.dailyplanet.com In addition to a bibliography, APA style calls for parenthetical citations within your text whenever you either paraphrase or quote a source. If quoting directly, include the page number if possible. Paraphrase example: (Kent, 2017) Direct quote example: (Kent, 2017, p. A1)
Summary:
Start with the author's last name and first initial. Place the publication date in parentheses after the author's name. Provide the title of the article using sentence-case. Type the name of the newspaper in italics with the page number. Add the website URL or database, if applicable. Use the author's last name and the year for in-text citations.
