I always try to air dry my hair and wait until it is 50% dry to brush it out.

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

Apply Amla oil to balance the Ph of your scalp to stimulate hair growth.

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

IGK Mini Good Behavior Spirulina Protein Anti-Frizz Smoothing Spray 2.4 oz/ 80 mL  is a great multitasker for a smooth look because it can be used on wet hair before you blowdry, and also on dry hair before you use a flat iron.

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

@SephoraBIC A flat iron with cermaic plates has helped me style my hair in a matter of minutes.  I can curl, add waves or straighten my hair with it.  It also has temperature control.  I have had mine for years but am looking into getting ghd Original Styler - 1" Flat Iron

I use amika Bust Your Brass Blonde Purple Shampoo 9.2 oz / 275 mL to keep my blonde hair looking great!

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

My fine, straight hair used to get very oily and wouldn't behave unless I washed it every day...until I found #RuskPRORestart04 dry shampoo. I've found the trick to using dry shampoo is to spray it on the night before, put my hair up in a loose bun when I go to sleep. I take it down in the morning, brush it through and it has so much body and a nice wavy voluminous texture for the whole day.

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

my best tip is to apply leave in conditioner after washing your hair. before i knew this hack, i would jump out of the shower, dry my hair and apply oil, until i discovered this trick. now, after i shower, i apply my OUAI OUAI x BYREDO Mojave Ghost Leave In Conditioner 4.7 oz/ 140 mL to the ends of my hair, and let it sit in my hair. i would also go in with my ouai hair oil afterwards if i feel like my hair needs an extra step. my hair is so shiny and feels amazingly soft afterwards!

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

My tip is for dandruff..if you use Listerine on scalp. I heard that Listerine was actually for dandruff. It actually worked for me. #listerine

 

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

@angelalaura According to the Wiki page, Listerine was first developed for oral care, and was then promoted by ads in the 1930s-1940s for dandruff. So it was specifically developed for oral care, and then some ads back then claimed it is for dandruff. If it works for you, great.

If you have the coin and need a new hair dryer, you can always spring for the Dyson Dyson Supersonic™ Hair Dryer!

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

Best tip i’ve ever learned is to dunk your hair is some water after a shower to enhance your curls once some leave in condiment is in because it helps define the curls and soak in the product better!! Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Joia ™ Milky Leave-In Conditioner 7.1 oz / 210 mL 

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

the best hair advice I got was to wash my hair with rice water ever so often! as well as being very gentle with using a hair massage tool (SEPHORA COLLECTION Silicone Scalp Massager ) in the shower as well! ❤️

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

My best tip is to use shampoo and conditioner for your type of hair. My hair is curly so I use #Ouidad products! 

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

This may be obvious to some, but I did NOT ever know to shampoo 2 or even 3 times!! For me this works best with Verb Ghost Weightless Shampoo  bc it’s so light and really breaks down any buildup, while leaving my color in tact! 

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

I have dry and curly hair but the Bumble and bumble Hairdresser's Invisible Oil Shampoo 33.8 oz / 1000 mL  helps my hair feel smooth and silky curly or styled !! Love it!!

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

Best hair care trick I’ve learned recently is to shampoo twice! The first shampoo is the cleansing, getting rid all the oils, dirt, etc., & then the second shampoo is actually activating the purpose of the shampoo whether it’s a hydrating, clarifying, etc. kind of shampoo! 🤍 THANK YOU @kelseygriffinn on TikTok!

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

A clean, well exfoliated scalp is an important starting point for your hair. ALTERNA Haircare Renewing Exfoliating Scalp Scrub-to-Foam 6 oz / 177 mL

I swear by the # Olaplex No 4 shampoo and conditioner….doesn’t dry out my hair and reduces split ends

Re: Best Hair Ever Sweepstakes: Enter For a Chance to Win One of Fifteen $200 e-Gift Cards!

Best hair tip: put some Briogeo Curl Charisma™ Rice Amino + Avocado Leave–In Defining Cream is wet curls. Flip head over, scrunch cream into your ends while also squeezing out the excess water. Get an old t-shirt, scrunch hair in the shirt then put it up turban style. Take hair out after about 1-1.5 hours and let it air dry. Beautiful mermaid curls, soft and shiny.
