The Best Shiny Hair Hacks

Shiny hair has always been desirable, but lately, the fascination with glossy, lustrous locks, evident from runways to social media platforms where shiny hair is undeniably trending.

Here are our tips for to achieve your shiniest and glossiest hair yet:

Rinse with cold water: As warm water helps in opening the hair cuticles and pores, it logically follows that cold water closes them. Therefore, choosing cold water for a final rinse will help seal in moisture, resulting in even shinier hair.

Use hair oil: The natural oils produced by the body usually don't reach the ends of our hair sufficiently to hydrate and nourish them. Therefore, it's advisable to apply hair oil to the lower part of your strands, rather than the scalp, to enhance hydration. The best oils include coconut oil, argan oil, keratin oil and olive oil. 

Brush daily with a boar bristle brush: Boar hair closely resembles human hair in texture, which offers numerous benefits for both your hair and scalp. When you use a boar bristle brush, it evenly distributes the oils from your scalp throughout the length of your hair, resulting in a natural shine.

Switch to a silk pillowcase: Resting on a silk pillowcase helps preserve the natural oils in your hair rather than absorbing them, thus keeping your hair nourished instead of dry and lacking shine.
