Best Ways to Make your Hair Shine
Hair that’s glossy and shiny project the perception of health and youthfulness. It helps to schedule regular appointments at the salon, but there are many easy and cost-effective measures that you can employ at home to keep hair lustrous looking. Eating a healthy diet provides the entire body, including your hair, with the nutrients needed to produce strong strands and the following tips are great for enhancing shine.
Blow Drying
Higher settings may result in less time under the dryer, but a medium setting is best. Use a cool setting at the end to provide a cool down that promotes shine. When blow-drying, use a round brush for more shine.
Brushing
Don’t fall victim to the old wives’ tale that hair should receive 100 strokes each day. All you’ll do is damage your hair. The right brush is critical to distribute natural oils throughout the hair. Never brush hair when it’s wet.
Cool Water Rinse
A hot shower feels lovely, but your hair doesn’t like it. Before exiting the shower, give your hair a cool water rinse to keep the hair shaft laying down. A cool rinse is also beneficial for keeping hair color in longer.
Hair Oil
To moisturize and help repair damaged locks, a lightweight hair oil can be useful to maintain luster without giving it a greasy or heavy feel. A product containing argan oil is good for this and only requires a maximum of three pumps to be effective.
Moisturize
A lightweight daily conditioner rich in oils such as coconut, argan, jojoba, avocado, or sweet almond will smooth tiny cracks and crevices in the hair shaft and aid in reducing dullness and frizziness.
Shampoo
Over-shampooing is a leading cause of dry, damaged hair. Shampooing too much robs hair of its natural oils. Select a shampoo that’s appropriate for your hair type and if you’ve used a dry shampoo several times in a row, use a clarifying shampoo to eliminate the build-up of hair care products. An added advantage is that clarifying shampoo won’t damage color-treated hair.
