What's The Scoop On Shiny Hair?
Disappointed with the dull, lackluster hair on the girl you see looking at you in the mirror? Lust after shiny, silky healthier looking hair? Don't despair. Any hair type can be make to be shinier as this short collection of tips will attest. Because believe it or not you too can have hair that gleams in the sun as well.
Now it's often the case that locks that lack shine have suffered some kind of abuse. Like too much exposure to the sun or from styling products used wrong. Or maybe hot styling tools have been used with too much zeal set to too high of a temperature.
Reason being when your hair has been stressed by the sun, chlorine or too much heat it will likely be dry. Sometimes it is so bad inner layers of the hair are damaged too because the cuticle is breached. Still cuticles that are raised can result in dull looking hair since that alone is enough to deaden the shine.
Okay so here are some things to do to impart some shine.
Proper conditioning and shampooing are words to live by if you seek shinier hair. The idea is to alternate shine enhancing shampoos that have olive or jojoba oil and the like on the label with your old favorites. And avoiding clarifying shampoo if at all possible since those can suck out more moisture than you'd like.
Whenever you shower pat your hair dry and then apply a lighter glossing cream if you are trying to add shine to fine hair. Or shine serum to shine up frizzy or hair that is one the wild and unruly side.
You want to blow dry right away to encourage the ends and cuticles to lie flat. Aiming the nozzle away from your scalp toward the ends is the best way to so.
Another trick? Spritz the ends while your hair is still warm with shine spray.
Deep condition weekly using a leave in conditioner to strengthen your hair's cuticles. This will also help them stand up to the cold, dry air, UV rays, and other environmental stresses.
And you're right. What you've suspected all along to be true is. Some lucky girls are born with hair destined to be shinier. I mean isn't it common sense that stick straight strands are going to best reflect the light? While twisted, curly locks tend not to?
In then end every one of us deserves to have beautiful, glossy hair that can be easily managed. Now you have some ideas to try to get the most shine you can from your tresses.
