11. Nursing Fundamentals 724311 ASSIST WITH SHAVING 5.01 Razor bumps are tiny, irritated bumps that develop after shaving. People with curly hair are most affected by them. The sharp edge of closely shaven hair can curl back and grow into the skin, causing irritation and pimples, and even scarring. To minimize razor bumps, take a hot shower before shaving, shave in the direction of hair growth, and don't stretch the skin while shaving. Rinse with cold water, then apply moisturizer.

25. Nursing Fundamentals 724325 HAIR CARE - FYI 5.01 Traction Alopecia Damages Follicles Pulling hair too tight -- as can happen with ponytails, braids, and cornrows -- can damage hair follicles and cause hair to break or fall out. Hair extensions and hairpieces can sometimes cause traction alopecia, too, because their extra weight pulls on existing hair. Changing your hairstyle usually lets hair grow back. Pulling hair back tightly for a long time, though, can lead to permanent hair loss. http://www.webmd.com/skin-problems-and-treatments/slideshow-hair-and-scalp-conditions

26. Nursing Fundamentals 724326 HAIR CARE - FYI 5.01 Head Lice: Itchy! In hair — that's where you'll find lice. They like to hide in the neck area of the scalp and behind the ears. If you have lice, you likely got it from sharing a hat, brush, or other item with a person who has lice. Lice are itchy, but scratching can lead to infection. In severe cases, hair may fall out. http://www.webmd.com/allergies/slideshow-bad-bugs
