Secrets to Shiny Hair
Categories: Alternative & Green Health
I have pretty healthy hair -- I don't dye it often, I get regular haircuts and don't use to much product, and yet it always looks dull. Do you have the same problem? The Beauty Brains have written on natural ways to keep your hair healthy and shiny. Here are their suggestions:
- Don't overwater your hair -- it causes the cuticle to buckle, which makes it dull
- Don't overwork the shampoo. Rubbing it furiously into you scalp will make it look flat
- Use conditioner -- especially if your hair is dry
- When using a towel, pat your hair dry instead of rubbing it.
- Don't brush too much
- Avoid too much heat styling
- But if you must heat-style, use protective products. Only, not too much--it weighs hair down
- Don't dye
- Or perm
- Don't play with your hair
- Don't wear it in a pony tail too much either
- Avoid the sun

If you have wavy to curly hair (most people do) then shampooing it is going to make it dull - read the book "Curly Girl" to get tips on cleaning and caring for all types of wavy to curly hair. Only people with stick straight hair can get away with shampooing.
The book recommends using only conditioner to clean hair. It's worked for me. The best conditioner I've found is Retread by Lush. Expensive but well worth it. If you want shine, the best tip is to make a rinse with vinegar. This works on most hair and gets rid of some buildup if you only use conditioner to clean.
