But like a number of other beauty secrets many of us do not know how to make our hair shiny. Different hair textures need different ingredients to make it shiny. Healthy, shiny hair enhances the beauty of a person.

Tips For Shiny Hair

• Use heat-activated shampoo
• Deep condition at least weekly
• Don’t use a lot of styling products as they can dull the hair by coating it.
• Use Strawberry hair mask: mash eight strawberries with one-tablespoon mayonnaise. Massage this into washed but damp hair. Cover it with a shower cap and then a warm towel. Wash out with a shampoo and then condition. This mask will give your hair a rich gloss.
• Increase the shine in your hair by giving your hair a cool blast of air to seal the cuticle after it is completely dry. If the cuticles are ragged then your hair will not shine.
• For blonde hair use a few tablespoons of lemon juice to your rinse water. This will make your hair shiny.
• For brown and red hair add a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to your rinse water.
• For shiny hair you can also mix one teaspoon of honey into 4 cups of warm water. After shampooing, pour the mixture through your hair, but do not rinse. Dry as normal.

1. Use the cool shot on your blow dryer. When your hair is hot it opens the cuticle on your hair shaft. The cuticle is the out side layer of your hair that resembles scales. When they lay down, your hair is shinier. So when you use the cool shot on your blow dryer, it helps smooth that cuticle shut.

2. After you condition your hair, add a tiny bit of smoothing or moisturizing conditioner all over, and barely rinse out. This helps coat your hair from the heat of the blow dryer, and helps smooth your cuticle.

3. Use a smoothing serum before or after your blow out. That serum can help add shine, and it’ll also absorb into the hair shaft throughout the day. You might need to play with the serum, and see what you like better.
