In order for your hair to be beautiful and well-groomed, it is important to only use products for this type of hair. There are specific lines of shampoos and conditioners for curly, straight, oily, dry, dyed, chemically treated hair, among others.

Do not wash your hair with very hot water and avoid washing your hair every day. Continuously wash off all shampoo and conditioner once you are done washing and moisturizing. She always prefers ice cold water, as it helps close the cuticles and avoids that dreadful flaky, frizzy look.

Before blow-drying your hair, use a thermoactive product to defend the strands from heat damage from the dryer and flat iron. Avoid drying the hair too far from the root, always leave it 15 cm from the head. Only use the iron if it is very strong and try not to leave it in the hair for too long.

3. Get your hair cut regularly

To keep your hair consistently vibrant and healthy and to avoid the dreaded split ends, get a haircut at least every 3 months. Choose a cut that enhances your face, after all, your hair is your “frame” and deserves all the care.

It is necessary to moisturize every 15 days to affirm the health and shine of the hair. Hydration can be done at home or in the salon, with the right products for your hair type. If you prefer, you can make a homemade mask to moisturize your hair.

Wash your hair well with anti-residue shampoo and remove all the product. After washing, apply the mask only to all hair, massage and wait 15 minutes. Completely remove the product from the hair and it is ready to be dried or styled as desired.

5. Protect cables from the sun

Water is the delegate to hydrate the dermis and hair, so it is important to continuously drink water and lush juices. Thus, your hair receives the natural hydration that comes from your body and helps to make your hair even more manageable and shiny.
