How can I get my hair shiny like celebrities?
How can I get my hair shiny like celebrities? It’s one of the most common questions we get asked at Pankhurst & Deane and we know all the tricks for how to get your hair shiny.
How can I get my hair shiny like celebrities tip 1: PROTECT HAIR AT HOME
Use a hair mask to hydrate and reduce hair breakage and choose a volumising shampoo to make hair appear fuller.
Apply from the middle of your head down to the ends to prevent flatness.
Don’t forget to use heat protecting products when styling hair with straighteners, curlers and hairdryers, too.
How can I get my hair shiny like celebrities tip 2: LOOK AFTER COLOUR
Dying your hair can make it weaker, so be sure to wash it with colour-safe shampoo and conditioner - opt for ones that contain keratin as it makes chemically-treated hair stronger.
How can I get my hair shiny like celebrities tip 3: GET REGULAR TRIMS
What can we say, we are champions of the good old fashion haircut! But don’t be afraid to get a trim especially if you’re growing it. It’s the best way to keep hair healthy, happy and shiny.
How to get more volume in your hair
Use a volumising shampoo and conditioner
Volume starts in the shower (or bath) so find a volumising shampoo and conditioner for your hair type and make it part of your haircare routine.
Avoid putting conditioner on roots
Tempting as it might be to slather conditioner all over our heads, this will actually make your hair look flatter! When you clean your hair with shampoo, your cuticles open up looking for nourishment and moisture, but when you whack loads of conditioner on the scalp (a natural oil source) it will make your roots appear heavy and greasy.
Half-dry your hair upside down
Start off your drying journey with your head flipped upside down - this lifts hair at the root and will rough up your cuticles for maximum volume. When your hair is almost dry, flip back to upright and blow-dry the mid-ends to smooth and soften them.
