5 tips to style your hair at home

Do you want to style your hair at home like a salon? Here are some tips you can follow.

Shampoo

Opt for a chemical-free hair styling shampoo to wash your hair. Massage your scalp thoroughly until a thick foam is created. Make sure to wash your hair twice with lukewarm water.

Conditioning

The next step is to condition your tresses for a smooth and silky finish. Apply a palm full of conditioner to your hair excluding the roots and leave it for 5 minutes. Detangle your hair using your fingers and rinse it off with lukewarm water.

Drying

Salons use blow dryers to dry and style your hair. Instead of using hair dryers, let your hair dry naturally. Use a towel to soak excess water from damp hair and leave them open to dry.

Apply serum

Apply some serum to you hair to lock the moisture. The serum can help help get smooth and silky hair at home and prevent frizziness.

Combing

Use a wide-toothed brush to comb your hair.  Avoid pulling your hair to get rid of tangles to prevent damage. Instead, detangle them using your fingers. 

Apply heat protectant spray

It is essential to use heat protectant spray before applying styling tools like straighteners and curlers to your hair to prevent hair damage.
