Brush your hair and make sure there are no knots before you wash your hair.

Wet your hair.
Squirt a 50 pence piece amount of shampoo into your hand and then rub it in you hair then wash it out.
Then repeat this with shampoo again and it should REALLY lather up make sure you clean all your hair then wash it out thoroughly.
Then put conditioner onto the ends of your hair not the root other wise it can cause a dry itchy scalp, leave it in for 3 minutes then wash out thoroughly.
After a shower pat your hair slightly dry then leave it down to dry naturally, if you need to brush your hair only use a wide toothed comb, other wise it could rip your hair.

Brush your hair 50 times in the morning and 50 times at night.

Try to avoid straighteners, hairdryers anything that can dry your hair out try to only use them twice a week and if you do use plenty on heat protection.

Massage your scalp using your fingers for about 3 minutes a day.

Have a healthy diet, such as peanuts and drinking lots of water can keep your hair nice.

Use products as least as possible if you do use then try not to buy products with alcohol in them.

Try not to use very tight hair bobbles try and use soft and loose hair bobbles as much as possible to prevent your hair from ripping.


I use herbal essences hydralicious reconditioning shampoo.
I shower in hot water, but when i shampoo&Condition my hair, i put the heat settings of the water to cold. Hot waters bring's more frizz and damages the hair if done to often.

I naturally have curly, puffy, hair. So i do not brush, but use a tangle comb and just comb out the knots. I then blowdry on cold, not forgetting my hair protection serum (Not to much.)
Once i finish blowdrying, my hair is always a puffy mess, so i place in a few drops of Bio silk. Not only smell's good but has a great effect. I then put my straightener on the highest heat, because it's better for your hair if you only go through it once and have it straight, instead on the lowest setting and having to go through the hair alot to straighten it.

This is not really healthy for my hair, but it make's my hair shinny and beautiful. Whenever my hair is dry and frizzy, i rub my hair with olive oil and put on a shower cap. Leaving it on for thirty minutes, then washing out with Shampoo and Conditioner.

My hair...Although not the healthiest, it is really shinny and nice.
Im sure when im in my twenty's it'll be terrible (lol.) but for now my hair is very nice.
Try to avoid using heat as much as possible, but no matter what, you can't avoid the high heat of a straightening iron.

Oh and don't wash it every day it's strips you hair of all the natural oils meaning minging hair!


What I do is I wash my hair, squeeze excess water out, then put conditioner in, leave it in for about 10 minutes, then I was it out, I then towel dry, and make a mixture of 2 egg whites, 2 tbsp of olive oil, and a squeeze of lemon juice, or just some mayonnaise. The olive oil (canola oil in mayonnaise) hydrates the hair, giving it essential oils, making it softer, the lemon juice (acid, vinegar in mayonnaise) makes the hair shiny, and the egg whites (protein, egg in mayonnaise) reconstructs protein compounds in the hair, making it stronger and healthy.

You can get your hair shiny by
Rinse your hair with cold water to enhance the shine of your locks. Rinsing with cold water will close & smoothen the cuticle making it look shiny.
Two ways to close and smoothen the cuticle after shampoo are:
a. To 1 gallon of distilled water add 1tbls of vinegar. Once the shampoo is washed apply the rinse. (It might not give a good odor, but the results are good.)
b. Apply acidic conditioners after rinse.


Get a transparent color on your hair in the same way normal colors are applied. The color will add little pigments to the hair shaft that would make your hair shine when light falls on it.
The simplest way to have shiny hair - deep conditions them.
Vitamin E is essential for your hair. Include brown rice, nuts, wheat germ and leafy green vegetables in your diet.
In a bowl mash avocado, one tbls of olive oil and a tsp of baking powder. Mix well and apply it on your hair. Rinse it after 15 minutes.
If you have got your pretty locks colored, use products for color treated hair. These products will prevent the color from discharging, and making it look lifeless and dull.
Natural oil can also make your hair look shiny. Just brush or comb your hair.
Using a hair dryer can eliminate the moisture from your hair. Pick on heat activated shampoos and conditioners to retain the moisture.

To keep it healthy always
Wash your hair only 2-3 times per week and use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner combo or a color care formula. When you condition, leave conditioner on 2-3 minutes before rinsing. Washing hair everyday strips it of essential moisture that helps keep it shiny and soft. After your wash, spray with a leave in conditioner and / or color protectant.

Also
Deep condition once a week. This is essential to youthful, healthy vibrant hair. Use a deep conditioning treatment suited to your hairtype and any chemical processes you may have had. The best way to deep condition it is to envelop your hair with the deep conditioner. Wet a hand towel and place it in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to get it too hot and burn yourself. Wrap towel securely around your head and leave treatment in for as long as you can. Usually 15-30 minutes should be good. Wash and follow with your leave in conditioner and / or color protectant spray.

Go to the barber !
Get regular trims. Hair that is split can continue to separate up the hair shaft and cause a dull and frizzy appearance. Regular trims can help alleviate this and contribute to the overall vibrancy of your beautiful hair.


The beauty of your hair not only depends on the products that you use in it, but also your daily diet. Choose a diet that is rich in dark green leafy vegetables, nuts, protein, sources of vitamin B-12 and Omega 3 fatty acids.

Keep your body hydrated, by drinking alot of water. Avoid drinking alot of caffeinated beverages. Replace this with the good old water and you can't go wrong.

Handle wet hair with care. Don't brush your hair when it is wet or don't use a fine-tooth comb. Use a big wide-tooth comb to get the tangles out of your hair when wet.

Reduce stress levels. Try to eliminate stress by exercising and avoiding stressful situations. Constant stress can cause your hair to fall out.

Trim the ends of your hair at least once a month, to promote healthy looking hair. Sometimes the hair ends gets dried and frizzy, that's a a sign that your hair needs to be trimmed. When hair ends are trimmed, the hair grow healthier and more lustrous.


Fresh Aloe Vera is great for promoting hair growth and healthy, shiny, lustrous, hair. If you have Aloe Vera growing in your garden at home, you can slice a piece in half, scrape the slimy substance from the inside. Use the substance to massage into your scalp and hair, paying special attention the ends. Place a plastic hat on and sit for 10-15 minutes. Rinse


Hope this helps !
I learn beauty from my mom !
