There are dozens of products in the market that claim to give your hair the shine you always wanted. It’s easy to get confused about what products are suited to your hair and what purpose they serve. However, caring for your hair is not that complicated. Here are some simple steps you can take to ensure your hair is full and shiny.
- The first thing to do is use cold or slightly warm water to wash your hair. Coldwater closes hair’s cuticles and makes it smooth, eventually allowing it to reflect light thereby making hair look shiny.
- Adding food rich in vitamin E to the diet- like spinach, green leafy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and oils like canola oil and olive oil – is essential to get the shine.
- Proper water intake helps to reduce dehydration and dryness of not only the skin but hair as well. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day.
- Avoid chemical treatments, harsh shampoos, or blow dryers. All these make hair dry and lusterless.
- Apply a small amount of oil to the scalp daily and massage it with fingertips to nourish hair roots.
- You can also try some simple home remedies like applying curd or Aloe vera pulp to hair twice a week.
