HAIR SHINE!

A major component and signal of healthy skin is a natural glow. But causes like lack of sleep, stress, age, and even what you eat can rob your complexion of its radiance. Transform skin that looks dull and tired to luminous and glowing skin.

TOUCHING YOUR HAIR TOO OFTEN

Constantly touching or fiddling with your hair flirtatiously or out of boredom transfers oils from fingertips to your strands. Also try and nicely discourage anyone from touching your hair too much in bed. It feels nice but doesn’t look nice in the morning.

OVER WASHING

Yes, you wash it to cleanse the grease but no, it doesn’t help. Unfortunately daily shampooing can strip your scalp of its natural oils and it doesn’t produce more in a bid to replace them. Try cutting back on washing your hair to every other day at least or 2/3 times a week. Your hair will thank you in the long run.

OVER CONDITIONING

Be cautious with conditioners. You may be applying a conditioner that’s too heavy for your hair type, which can weigh it down. Also not washing it out properly is another grease giving culprit. And finally avoid placing your conditioner all over your hair, focus on the ends to avoid causing oily roots and lank lengths.

OVER BRUSHING

Brushing your hair too much can stimulate oil production, which at first looks glossy, but soon looks greasy. Again, stick to detangling the lengths and ends if you have got an obsessive hair brushing habit.

YOUR HAIR BRUSH IS DIRTY

Your hairbrush can harbor all sorts of nasties. Build up of stale styling products and dust are only the obvious ones. A clogged brush will transfer these on to the hair making it feel dirty, so make sure your brush is cleaned properly on a regular basis.

YOUR HAIRBRUSH IS FULL OF HAIR

A hairy brush might not seem like an offender, but if your hair is greasy, using a brush clogged with hairs will only transfer grease from old strands back on your clean hair.

APPLYING THE WRONG PRODUCTS

You may be choosing styling products that aren’t compatible with your hair. Look for lightweight formulas and avoid ones that promise shine and moisture which would be better suited to dry or dull hair types.

PRODUCTS BUILDUP THAT NEEDS DETOXING

Styling products can cause the scalp and strands to become clogged up. If you are a dry shampoo type, you might want to give your locks a detox by using a clarifying shampoo 2-4 times a month, or product designed to exfoliate the scalp. It is the gateway to healthy hair.
