How to make hair shiny and glossy?

To achieve shiny, glossy hair, consider the following tips and techniques:

  1. Apply an Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse: A weekly ACV rinse can help balance your scalp's pH, which contributes to shine and easier detangling.
  2. Use Deep Cleansing Shampoo: Occasionally, clarify your hair to remove product buildup for a cleaner, shinier look.
  3. Rinse with Cold Water: Cold water seals the hair's cuticle, locking in moisture and promoting shine.
  4. Try an Oil Treatment: Nourish extra-dry or damaged strands with a smoothing, gloss-inducing hair oil.
  5. Deep Condition with a Mask: Use a restorative hair mask to hydrate and smooth the hair's cuticle.
  6. Go for an In-Salon Gloss or Toner: Professional toner treatments and glossing can add luster to natural hair without affecting color.
  7. Use Blue Shampoo: If your hair tends to get brassy, a blue shampoo can help restore a cool, shiny tone.
  8. Apply Heat Protectant: Use a heat protectant before styling to minimize heat damage and preserve shine.
  9. Adjust Your Hair Styling Habits: Make minimal use of heat tools, and turn down their heat settings to reduce damage and promote shine.
  10. Opt for Permanent Blow Dry: A keratin smoothing treatment can smooth the hair, reducing frizz and enhancing shine.
  11. Eat a Nutritious Diet: Eat vitamin-rich foods and stay hydrated to promote overall hair and scalp health.
  12. Use Shine Serums or Serum Mists: Add shine and protect hair with silicone-based serums or mists.

Remember that maintaining shiny hair requires a combination of good hygiene practices and gentle treatment of your hair. Consult with a hairstylist for specific in-salon treatments or tailored recommendations for your hair type and current condition.
