Get Happier, Healthier Hair!

Step One: Fix Your day-to-day problems!

FRIZZY HAIR: If you get frizzy hair easily, these tips are for you.
In order to have non-frizzy hair you need a silicone serum. Such as Garnier Fructis Style Brilliantine Shine Glistening Drops. Rub a dime-size drop between your palms and than coat your hair starting at your ends. You will avoide greese overload.

- $4 at drugstores



LIMP/LIFELESS HAIR: If you want to have more volume to your hair these tips are for you.
Of course moose is the trick. Look for a volume based mousse to help you get more life like hair. Try Garnier Fructis, once again, the volumizing mousse and massage this into your roots area most to give your hair a full-er look.

- $5 at the drugstores



SPLIT ENDS: If you want to get rid of those split ends, these tips are for you.
Once again a garnier fructis item, sorry but these really work! This product actually works, like the others. Take a pea-sized amount and rub it on the ends of your hair, the split end parts with towel dried hair. This will help repair them.

- $5 in the drugstore




OILY HAIR: If your second-day hair is getting greasy and you want to go a day without washing it, these tips are for you.
A great item for greasy hair is Tre Semme dry shampoo for greasy straight hair. You spray it 5-8 inches away from your hair and than wait 2 minutes to let it sink in and dry and than brush it out. Your hair will look like you just washed it. Amazing! I was unable to get a picture of this, sorry!



Step Two: Get Strong Hair in 3 Simple Steps!

1. DRINK WATER:
Your hair doesnt grow as nice and healthy when your dehydrated. When your hydrating yourself, you are hydrating your hair! Your hair becomes weak without you drinking water. Avoid coffee, which study's show, dries your hair out. Drink lots of Water!

2. GET YOUR SLEEP!:
Your hair is JUST like your body, it needs what your body needs. Without sleep, your hair wont get a chance to rest and remain healthy and strong. If you dont get enough sleep, your hair wont grow much!

3. TAKE YOUR VITAMINS:
Vitamins not only help your body, they help your hair too. If you take a daily vitamin, your hair gets the vitamins and minerals needed to grow long and strong. Healthy nutrition = healthy hair!


Step Three: Get Shiny Hair in 5 steps!

1. Use Heat.
Making your hair shiny means ALWAYS using a heat protectant. TreSemme makes a great one!

2. Comb Out Your Hair.
Using a comb is the right way, using a brush paddle is the wrong way. It breaks your hair. Use a detangling spray to make it easier for the comb, Pantene Detangling Spray is great!

3. Eat Right.
Foods with great vitamins and nutrients help the hair grow better. Vitamin E is a great source of shine for the hair. As well as nuts and almonds.

4. Rinse Right.
Using cold water to rinse is better and gives your hair a much needed boost! It seals your cuticlee for a smooth surface.

5. Squeeze out water.
If your hair is very wet, it cant soak up the conditioner and shine and smooth your hair. Make sure most of the water is out when you are done washing it.


Step Four: Get soft, smooth hair with a couple inexpensive items!

Number 3 item: Boar Bristles
This type of brush makes your hair feel much better and allows the nutrients to distribute evenly. Much better than a plastic brush!


 Number 2 item: Soft Elastics
These type of band wont grap and pull at your hair, they will be less painful doe you. Try not using an elastic with a metal ring.


Number 1 item: Heat Protectant!
Not only does a heat protectant make your hair shiny, it makes your hair very smooth! Try Redken's to help give it a smoother feel and look.









Thats it! Thanks for reading, hope my tips helped! :)
