Using a professional good shampoo and conditioner helps keep your hair looking healthy and shiny. Though most people wash their hair every day, hair should be shampooed only a few times a week. Instead, shampoo your hair only every other day for fine hair and twice a week for normal to coarse hair and choose a professional salon product that is sodium lauryl sulfate-free. This chemical creates the lathering foam that invigorates the scalp and makes it feel clean, but will also leave your hair dry and dull looking. Following the shampoo use a conditioner best suited to your type of hair, only distribute the conditioner to the ends of your hair to prevent the product from weighing it down. After conditioner the hair, rinse thoroughly. If your have long hair, use a wet detangling brush instead of a comb.
The cuticle is the outermost layer of the hair and when damaged, it can take on a shingle-like appearance that can cause hair to look dull and tangle easily. To give further shine, always rinse hair with cold water after showering. Cold water will help keep the cuticle closed, leaving you with smooth shiny hair.
If you are in a tropical region, humidity in the air on a hot day can also have a dulling effect on your hair. Fight frizz by making sure that any dampness from your hair is gone before you leave the house. I recommend to my clients to use a thermal spray follow by using a flat iron on the hair that frames the face to remove any extra moisture and give your hair additional shine.
Whether hair is straight, wavy, curly or kinky, it can look sleek and naturally shiny and in great condition. Protect your hair, asks your hairstylist to assistance to choose the right shampoo and conditioner for your hair type. With these simple guidelines, you too can be on your way to beautiful and naturally shiny hair.
