Get smooth, soft hair that projects glamor and sophistication. The following tips will help you get silky soft locks with lots of shine.
Prepare
Invest first in shampoo and conditioner designed to smooth the hair. Make sure they contain deep moisturizers to smooth and detangle your hair. Use warm to cold water to wash your hair and rinse with ice cold water to close the pores. Never brush wet hair; instead, always separate your strands with a wide-toothed comb to avoid breakage. Air dry your hair as much as possible before using a blow dryer.
Invest in the right tools
Getting a super soft look requires the right tools. Use an attachment on your blow dryer to better direct the air. This also helps to keep the pores closed, improving softness and shine. Experiment with a combination of round brushes, straighteners and large rollers to achieve different effects. Stay away from brushes with plastic or nylon bristles that can tear hair; opt for a boar bristle brush instead. Try a ceramic hair straightener:these distribute heat more evenly for a more polished finish.
Part the hair
For best results, divide the hair into sections and style one by one. Start styling your hair from the base of your head and move up to your crown as each section is perfected. When smoothing, be careful not to overdo it or you risk cutting your hair. Take sections of hair that are slightly smaller than the size of the straightener and move over them slowly to get a silky, smooth texture.
Make sure it shines
The key to a polished look is ramping up the shine. For ultra-straight locks, invest in products like an anti-frizz serum to fight frizz and smooth out unruly locks. As a finishing touch, finish with a hairspray.
Make sure it stays that way Whether you style your hair every day or not, keep it healthy and strong with weekly hair treatments. Use a mask that strengthens and smoothes the hair all week. Hair treatments revitalize, strengthen and lighten straight hair and leave it perfectly beautiful.
