How to get Shiny Hair in 4 Easy Steps

Forget dull, matte looking hair! Shiny, glossy strands are in and achieving so is simple!

How to get Shiny Hair in 4 Easy Steps

1. Wash hair using a vitamin & protein rich Shampoo and conditioner. (We like Love Peace & The Planet Walking on Sunshine Daily Shine Shampoo and Condtioner)

2. Towel dry hair and apply a leave in conditioner to damp strands. Using a wide tooth comb, comb hair to distribute product evenly.

3. Using an Ionic Hair Dryer (ions promote shine & maintain healthy hair) blow dry hair being sure to point the nozzle downwards to avoid making hair frizz. Finish with a blast of cold air.

4. Finish with a fine spritz of gloss serum such as Nume Miracle Shine Weightless Shine Spray.

2011 Summer Hairstyle Trend – Va Va Voom Volume!

No one wants hair that falls flat and lacks movement so this summer, follow these tips for voluminous hair that lasts all day!

 

1. Use a clarifying shampoo at least once per week to remove excess buildup that can weigh hair down. Using a volumizing shampoo the rest of the time can help give hair a boost.

We like Biosilk Volumizing Shampoo as it works with heated styling tools to add volume, shine and movement to hair.

2. Use a round hairstyling brush to lift hair straight up from the roots when blow drying.

3. While hair is still warm from your hair dryer, wrap sections of hair around large Velcro curlers. Allow hair to cool before removing curlers. Comb hair with fingers and if desired, tease your roots for added volume.

4.Use a lightweight, flexible hold hairspray to keep your hairstyle in place.

5. If your hair seems to fall flat near the end of the day, refresh hair using a dry shampoo.

Summer Hair Care

Ok, I may be a bit ahead of myself here, but who isn’t excited for Summer time? The warm sun, the beach and everything that else that comes along with it in which we wait all year for!

This week I want to share some of the hot hairstyles for Summer 2011 but first I want to talk about Summer hair care. It is important that you care for your hair properly during the summer months, just as you do your skin. The heat and the rays from the sun can cause damage to your hair leaving it dry, brittle and frizzy so lets talk about how you can avoid this!

Just like you care for your hair when using heated styling tools such as your flat iron, the right hair care can help protect your hair from the sun. During the summer months, if possible, avoid using your hair tools as often, and always remember when you do use them to use a heat protectant.

Shampoos, conditioners and hair styling products are available with sunscreens and nourishing agents to help protect your hair from the summer elements so when buying these items, look for these.

Why to buy a Ceramic Flat Iron

When looking for a flat iron you have probably been told by one person or another to go for a ceramic flat iron. While this is true, and a ceramic flat iron is a great choice, lets look at why.

A Ceramic Flat Iron can mean two things. One being that the plates on the flat iron are made of ceramic and two, that it uses ceramic heating elements. Both of these are beneficial in a hair iron so choosing one that has both is an excellent idea.

Solid ceramic plates on a flat iron will provide you with more durability than those which are coated or painted. Coated or painted plates will eventually chip and peel causing damage to your hair by pulling, snagging and breaking it.  A ceramic flat iron prevents static, smooths and seal the hairs cuticle,  and adds shine to hair.

Ceramic heating elements work to distribute an even heat throughout the plates of the flat iron which prevent  hot spots on the iron which can in return burn and damage your hair.

So, now you know why to buy a ceramic flat iron and how it benefits your hair in the long run. Also, please rem,ember, no matter what type of flat iron you are using, always use a heat protectant before styling your hair because with repeated use of any heated styling tool you are at risk of hair damage.

Hair Care for Damaged Hair

Don’t let dry, brittle, damaged hair ruin your day. Taking proper care of your hair and using hair care for damaged hair will not only prevent hair damage but can also help restore and revitalize damaged hair.

Hair care for damaged hair is much more than just a one time treatment. Preventing and restoring damaged hair is a daily routine. When you take into consideration the stress of environment, hairstyling tools and chemical treatments that we subject our hair to, hair care for damaged hair is a must for all hair types.

Prevent Hair Damage -

The best way to prevent hair damage is by using shampoos and conditioners that are formulated to help strengthen and nourish the hair. Choose these products based on your hair type.

Before using any kind of heated styling tool protect your hair with a heat protectant! These are specially formulated to work with the heat of your tools and in return prevent your hair from burning and becoming damaged from over styling.
