Tuan Chau island’s name is the combination between ‘linh tuan’ (the patrolman) and ‘tri chau’ (district chief) because in the feudal time, the royal army set up a guard station here to patrol and defend the borderland. Prior to 1999, the island's residents suffered from a very modest living standard.There was no power network and no clean water. Roads were only trails and there was no mechanical means of transportation. Tuan Chau was a very poor town where fishing with very rudimentary tools is the only means of living.  Read more: Vietnam tours

Bảo vệ mái tóc khi ngồi điều hòa

Mái tóc thường khô xơ và không bóng đẹp nếu bạn thường xuyên ở trong phòng máy lạnh. Hãy chọn chỗ ngồi tránh nơi dieu hoa nhiet do thổi trực tiếp vào tóc, không để nhiệt độ quá chênh lệch với ngoài trời...
Để tóc luôn khỏe đẹp khi thường xuyên phải ngồi trong phòng điều hòa LG, bạn nên chú ý những điểm sau:

- Không nên bước vào phòng điều hòa ngay khi vừa từ ngoài nắng nóng vào. Nguyên nhân là nhiệt độ thay đổi đột ngột, mồ hôi sẽ bốc hơi nhanh chóng gây khô tóc, làm cơ thể hạ nhiệt nhanh dẫn đến rối loạn điều hòa nhiệt.

- Nên để nhiệt độ trong phòng và ngoài trời chênh nhau tối đa 8 độ. Không nên ngồi ở chỗ điều hòa thổi trực tiếp vào.

- Tránh ngồi trong phòng điều hòa khi tóc ướt vì lúc này tóc thường yếu hơn, lượng nước bị mất đi đột ngột sẽ khiến tóc của chúng ta dễ bị tổn thương hơn.

- Không nên ở trong phòng điều hòa liên tục quá 4 giờ liên tục.

- Nên có bình hơi xịt nước để thỉnh thoảng xịt cho tóc. Chú ý không phun nhiều, tóc sẽ bị bết.

- Ra ngoài đường nên thoa kem chống nắng và đội mũ cẩn thận để tránh tóc bị gãy, khô, chẻ ngọn.

- Nếu tóc bạn thường xuyên tiếp xúc với dieu hoa Funiki chinh hang, không nên sử dụng máy sấy nhiều. Nếu trong trường hợp khẩn cấp, bạn có thể sấy tóc ở chế độ mát. Nếu bắt buộc phải thường xuyên thay đổi kiểu tóc thì bạn nên dùng loại kem bảo vệ đặc biệt. Hạn chế sử dụng hóa chất với tóc như ép, nhuộm, uốn xoăn.

Gội đầu và dưỡng tóc

Nên chọn những loại dầu gội đầu dầu bảo vệ tóc chống ôxy hóa chứa nhiều vitamin E để chống lại các gốc tự do gây lão hóa tóc.

Với những người thường xuyên ngồi phòng điều hòa midea, việc gội đầu và dưỡng tóc rất quan trọng. Nên dùng dầu xả mỗi khi gội đầu để tăng cường dưỡng chất và độ ẩm cho tóc. Không nên thoa kem xả khô ở phần chân tóc, sẽ làm tóc nhanh bẩn.

Đặc biệt, các bạn hãy sử dụng các loại mặt nạ từ thiên nhiên cho tóc như mặt nạ bơ, đu đủ, chanh hoặc mật ong… Nó có thể giúp tóc phục hồi hư tổn, tăng cường sức sống, độ chắc khỏe và bóng mượt.

Bảo vệ mái tóc khi ngồi điều hòa

Tăng độ ẩm trong phòng

Việc thường xuyên ngồi trong phòng điều hòa sẽ khiến mái tóc mất đi độ bóng mượt và sức sống tươi trẻ vốn có. Nguyên nhân do không khí trong phòng điều hòa thường khô hơn, khiến tóc mất đi độ ẩm cần thiết.

Để tăng cường độ ẩm trong phòng và hạn chế sự khô xơ của tóc, bạn có thể đặt một chậu nước trong phòng mỗi khi bật điều hòa. Cách làm này tuy đơn giản nhưng nó có tác dụng rất hiệu quả trong việc tăng cường độ ẩm và giúp hạn chế hư tổn mái tóc khi ở lâu trong phòng điều hòa.

Uống đủ nước

Thông thường, cơ thể một người cần được cung cấp 2-2,5 lít nước mỗi ngày. Tuy nhiên, khi ngồi trong phòng điều hòa, lượng nước trong cơ thể bị “bốc hơi” nhanh hơn. Vì thế, bạn cần tăng cường uống nước.

Ngoài việc uống nước lọc, bạn cũng có thể sử dụng các loại nước trái cây tươi, nhất là nước cam để thay thế. Đây không chỉ là nguồn cung cấp nước, cam còn bổ sung rất nhiều vitamin và khoáng chất cho cơ thể.

Vinh Long travel guide

The roughly oblong-shaped province of Vinh Long sits on a long Delta island, with the Tien Giang Mekong river cruises running along its northern border and the Hau Giang (Bassac) river running to its south. Lush and heavily cultivated with both rice and fruit orchards, the province is criss-crossed with canals and tributaries all flowing into the teeming rivers that form its borders. It’s not surprising that the name Vinh Long translates to "eternal prosperity".

Most travellers will spend their time in the eponymous provincial capital. While a medium-sized town, most points of interest in Vinh Long town sit in the northeast corner where the Co Chien river meets the Long Ho canal. This corner of town is also a popular spot for locals to sit back, slurp coffee and scoff banh mi while the chocolate brown river waters roar past (and it does roar here). This area also hosts a large wet market that borders a bustling central market, some gold shops and plenty of eating opportunities. Read more: Mango cruise

Vinh Long travel guide

Vinh Long is used as a base for those visiting the floating market at Cai Be (which is actually in Tien Giang province) and is known for its homestays on An Binh island to the north. While just a trickle of foreign travellers come through, compared to My Tho further downriver, the boat trips here are more affordable and the homestays offer a terrific opportunity to experience Mekong life firsthand – it's worth stopping here. The tours operating out of Saigon often hop, skip and jump through, combining a trip to Cai Be on the way to Can Tho so very few people overnight here -- don't be surprised when you're the only Westerner in the town's sole disco. Read more: Centre Vietnam Packages

The Vinh Long tourist office can organise homestays and boat trips but both are significantly more expensive than organising something on a more freelance basis -- walk up to the ferry to An Binh island and don't be surprised to be approached for a homestay or boat trip at lower prices. While the tourist office warns, "Using an outside operator carries no insurance should very bad things happen", we didn't find anything very bad happening.

Unlike other floating markets, Cai Be operates well into the day, so if you're in a rush, it's feasible to arrive in Vinh Long early in the morning (say from My Tho), do a boat trip out to the market and returning to Vinh Long by early afternoon with plenty of time to push onto Can Tho. Most trips to Cai Be run for at least three hours as the trip there takes about 45 minutes each way (depending on the route taken and the boat used).

Aside from the river trips and the homestays, Vinh Long isn't screaming out with grade A tourist attractions -- it's other claim to fame is Van Thanh Mieu pagoda, a sprawling complex set in a tranquil garden setting. About 20 kilometres west of Vinh Long lies Sa Dec, a pretty riverside town that was the backdrop to 1991 French movie The Lover.

Vinh Long doesn’t have the tourism infrastructure of My Tho or Can Tho so expect to rough it a bit. However, the city has a certain charm and the homestays in An Binh are refreshingly hassle-free and worth a night or two. Also, if you have your own transport, getting out into the surrounding countryside is well worthwhile.

From the Vinh Long river bank, if you look to the west you can see the twin towers of the My Thuan bridge jutting into the sky. Built with financial assistance from Australia, the bridge did away with the ferries and greatly improved access to the greater Delta from Saigon. One does wonder why it is so high -- perhaps the AusAID officials in Saigon wanted to be able to point out its spires from their offices.

Orientation
The riverside corner of town houses the post office (14 Hoang Thai Hieu) and most corners around the central market have ATMs. The hospital is a bit out of town on Tran Phu and unless it’s an emergency, we suggest making the trip to Ho Chi Minh City where medical care is better.
