How to get shiny hair?

Is your hair dull and unruly? Is it brittle and you have trouble styling it? To get shiny, silky and strong hair, it may be time to change your hair routine and adopt a few simple steps to properly maintain and moisturize it without greasing the scalp. Find 5 tips for supple and shiny hair, radiant with health.

Trim the ends every 3 months

Trimming your ends regularly is a simple and essential step to have healthy hair and improve its appearance. Indeed, small split ends appear over time, encouraged by the use of heating appliances or by the simple friction of the hair on the pillow or clothes. Hair grows on average 1cm per month and we recommend that you trim up to 1cm every 3 months or so to eliminate split and damaged ends and make your hair thicker, stronger and shinier.

Make oil baths

Vegetable oils have many properties. The fatty acids and ceramides they contain help strengthen the hair fiber, repair it and protect it, which allows you to have shiny hair. Once every 2 weeks, do an oil bath, choosing the one that is best suited to your needs and your hair type (oily, dry, damaged, etc.). Take a few drops of oil and apply it to your hair, from root to tip, then massage the scalp before leaving it on for 15 to 20 minutes and then washing it thoroughly, followed by a good rinse. Choose an oil that is non-greasy to the touch so as not to weigh down your hair and preferably choose an organic, cold-pressed oil.

Use targeted hair care

The choice of care products you use to wash your hair is essential and has a real impact on the beauty and shine of your hair. To boost the shine of your hair, use a moisturizing shampoo that will strengthen it. The Anti-Breakage Moisturizing Care Shampoo helps fight against hair loss linked to hair breakage, especially when brushing. This nourishing treatment moisturizes the scalp as well as the entire length of your hair to make it more resistant. Results: shiny hair from root to tip. Also choose a conditioner that is suited to your hair's needs to make detangling easier and reduce frizz caused by styling. The Hydration Fondamentale Conditioner has anti-frizz properties from the first application and provides essential hydration to effortlessly detangle and smooth hair. Infused with hyaluronic acid and Microlayers technology, it is designed to leave hair hydrated, softer to the touch and shinier. After a few minutes of applying your conditioner, rinse your hair thoroughly and, if possible, with cold water. Indeed, cold water tightens the hair scales and makes it stronger and shinier.

Brush hair regularly

You may be used to brushing your hair in the morning when you wake up, but note that it is also essential to brush it in the evening. Indeed, brushing before going to bed helps to eliminate dust and all the impurities that can accumulate during the day and that can dull your hair. In addition, passing the brush along the hair helps to distribute the sebum throughout the hair. In addition to strengthening them, sebum makes hair shiny, naturally.

Use a styling product

After washing your hair or even on dry hair, styling is made easier by using a leave-in styling product that smooths, reduces frizz and boosts shine. Essence Hydrating Hair Serum hydrates and softens hair to make it shinier and more manageable. This hydrating hair serum is composed of a blend of nourishing emollients that help with styling without weighing hair down, gives a more supple feel and reduces frizz. This serum is a lightweight treatment, which can be used after washing your hair and as a touch-up during the day. Hair is shinier and more manageable thanks to this leave-in treatment with a light texture that leaves a soft finish. Apply Essence Hydrating Hair Serum to wet hair, strand by strand, avoiding the scalp, then leave on under a dry towel for a few minutes. For shiny hair every day, you can also use the serum on dry hair before styling. The secret to shiny hair lies in a few simple habits to have and to integrate into your hair care routine. Trimming the ends, doing oil baths, brushing your hair well, moisturizing it without greasing the scalp, selecting the right washing and styling treatments ... you now know what you have to do to restore suppleness and vitality to your hair and finally display the shiny hair you dream of.
