New Life and Luster for Damaged Hair

Would you like to show off the alluring luster of beautiful hair but extensive damage has left your hair lifeless and dull? There is help! Modern hair care products like moisturizing shampoo can instantly improve the structure of hair and condition it. The result is instant brilliant shine.

Healthy hair shows deep natural luster. Restoring this natural shine therefore requires returning hair to its natural state. This can be achieved through products such as dry hair shampoo and hydrating shampoo. In addition, new generations of hair care products can instantly create smooth hair cuticles, which are then able to reflect light. Hair care innovations also make it easier than ever to restore damaged hair to brilliant luster and health. 

The first step on your way to shiny hair starts with the right moisture shampoo.  Using the right shampoo for dry damaged hair, with rich conditioners for your hair goes a long way toward creating healthy looking hair. Make sure to use no more than the necessary amount of shampoo and use lukewarm rather than hot water. After the hydrating shampoo, dab your hair dry with a towel, do not rub it. These strategies work well for all types of hair.

Damaged hair needs extra care in the form of regular intensive hair treatments. This applies in particular to dry or split ends.  

Quite often, heated styling tools are responsible for the damage to your hair. If you must use them be sure to apply heat protectant lotion or spray first. As often as possible, you should allow damaged hair to air-dry after washing with moisturizing shampoo.

Instant Luster for Damaged Hair

Of course, the most important part of working towards healthy, shiny hair consists of restoring the healthy natural structure of your hair. However, you don’t have to put up with frizzy, dull-looking hair for weeks or even months while your hair recovers from sustained damage. Instant finishing products and hydrating shampoos infuse even damaged hair with dazzling shine. These moisturizing shampoos also deliver conditioning substances, which help to restore the intact cuticle surface. Precious oils and other ingredients make your hair smooth, shiny, and supple. Other styling products such as hairspray, dry hair shampoo and styling mousse are available in high-gloss versions. Gel wax with oils also increases the shine until the next shampoo. Also available are shine enhancers, which last through three shampoos and for up to seven days. These products are available in handy single-use packets, which fit into the smallest pocket book or bag. Shine enhancers are used like hydrating shampoo. They produce a deep shine even though the hair may be severely damaged.
