For all the women out there with silky hair....?

Question

ok so i must have the worst hair ever. First of all, it's always frizzy. And i have split ends and its so tangled up. I want my hair to be smooth and silky. So for all the ladies with soft, smooth, hydrated, and silky hair, what's your secret? Is it a shampoo? Conditioner? Special treatment? Please be specific!!

Answer 1

Brush Your Hair. Alot!
I brush in the morning, when I get home from school, Before i go to bed. It leaves my hair shining, and smooth...


To get my hair fuller, smoother, I did many things:
I started using Pantene Pro V shampoo, and conditioner. Just one bottle. The gave my hair a more fuller, smooth, shiny look.
After I finished this bottle, I started using Herbel Essences shampoo and conditioner. Just random kinds, with scents I liked.
With randomly switching to different shampoos and conditioners, my hair seemed to get and stay smooth.
So just try some Randomness!
It helped me.

Answer 2

I have SUPER soft hair that is really shiny. I get tons of compliments on it. This is what I do:

1. Wash with Sunsilk Hydra TLC shampoo (pink bottle). I've used shampoos that are way more expensive, but this one just totally smoothes my hair shaft.

2. Condition hard-core. I like to alternate between Infusium 23 and a Pantene conditioning mask. No matter what conditioner I use, I leave it in my hair for at least five minutes (while I exfoliate or shave my legs).

3. After my shower I get out and put my hair in an ultra-absorbant hair towel until it's 80% dry. Then, I apply a smoothing serum (I like Bed Head Control Freak) and blow dry. When my hair is dry I straighten it with a straightening iron. The finishing touch is a few spritzes of shine spray, sprayed onto my palms and then run over the top of my hair.

Answer 3

Right now I use Redken products with Nexxus and they seem to work. I get complimented on my hair all the time. It is straight jet black hair, but it is coarse, so I have to work hard to keep it looking nice. Here is what I use at the moment:

Redken Smooth down shampoo
Redken All soft conditioner
Redken All soft silk fuel every 3-4 days
Redken Smooth down sleek obdience after I towel dry my hair.
Nexxus emergencee every 2 weeks

This has been working for me, but I tend to change up brands when I hear about a great product. Also, you need to cut those split ends off. The will only make your hair look worse.

Answer 4

I have always had long hair, to the middle of my back and it has been complemented for the last 20 years, sometimes as the prettiest, healthiest hair around. Here is my secret...

Wash hair with Suave Humectant and condition with Suave Humectant., I leave the conditioner in while I wash and shave. I also, finger comb all the tangles out of my hair in the shower before I rinse with cool water.

Do not towel dry hair, depending on hair length use Frizz-Ease Hair Serum, I use a dime size and distribute throughout hair I concentrate on the bulk of the hair, not the scalp or roots.

Blow dry with a flat paddle brush. Then spritz the VO5 Miracle Mist and flat iron.

Bellamisimo! Good luck

Answer 5

my hair is very thin and frizzy, but having a mom with 20+ years of expereince on the beauty industry has given me some really good tips as to what works.

first and foremost rember that your outside reflects your inside and that what you eat has as much effect on your body as what you put in the outside so make sure you are taking a good vitamin and eating a healthy diet and drinking enough water.

Next stopp using all chemical process and give your hair some recovery time. (shine oils, gel, mouse, hair spray, bleach or dye for at least one month) all these chemicals strip your hair and scalp off their natural protective layer leaving it frizzy, thin and lifeless

There are many really good products in the market that will work wonders in any type of hair but I think that if you mix them with the occacinal use of some natural ingredients they work even better!

Personally I recomend the Biolage and Sebastian products, they both have an entire line for any tipe of hair.

I will advise you to buy the Sebastian Penetry and the 2+1, both are deep repairing tools and help your hair heal and grow realy fast. The Penetry will strap your hair of all past chemical residues and the 2+1 will heal and seal in your hair's natural moisture making it grow stronger and healthier.

But if you want to try the natural cheap approach for both of these products do the following:

On a bowl mix in 3 eggs and half cup of coffe, mixed or it blend it and apply to hair after shampoowing it. leave in for at least 1 hour or until it dries (depending on how much time you have) and then shampoo it again

Then on a separate boul mix in one half of avocado and 2 spoons of Mayonaise mix well until you get a uniform paste and apply to your hair for at least 30 min. Shampoo with Biolage shampoo and use some Biolage detanglin solution. Make sure to rinse it all out to avoid making your hair too oily.

Also avoid direct heat (blow drying) try rolling your hair or letting it air dry and rap it on a duvi or put it in a poni tail so that it doesn't tangle up.

after all this you should have the softes most beautiful hair

Answer 6

I have had the shiniest, silkiest hair I have ever seen. Brush your hair while it is wet and still has a lot of conditioner in it. Then rinse with cold water. It doesn't matter what shampoo or conditioner you use, trust me I've been doing this for 19 years with x-tra cheap hair products. It really works.

Tips To Stop Hair Loss & Keep Healthy Hair Here are some hair care tips that you can use to help stop hair loss and keep your existing hair healthy and looking great. Please don't take these tips lightly. They are very important . The only thing they require is your time and commitment.

- Massage your scalp with your fingertips (not your nails) daily to stimulate and promote circulation to your scalp and reduce excess fallout. Invert your head while you shampoo & massage your scalp. This helps promote blood circulation to the head.

- Essential oils & tea . To stimulate scalp circulation, massage the scalp with rosemary essential oil or rinse hair with tea made from sage.

- Comb or brush your hair and scalp gently in the morning and at night. This helps break up hardened oils (sebum) that are clogging your hair follicles. Doing this alone has produced new hair growth. Do not over do combing or brushing.

- keep a distance from dryer's heat. When using blow dryers, always keep the heat a good distance from your scalp and hair. Avoid heating the scalp and hair excessively. Excessive heat will increase hair loss, and excess fallout.

- Avoid getting hair creams, lotions, styling gels and sprays directly on the scalp as they will clog your hair follicles. Use a light hold spray if you must.

- After swimming in a pool, shampoo your hair as soon as possible to remove any chlorine residue. Chlorine is extremely damaging to the hair and scalp.

- Avoid over-exposing your hair and scalp to the wind and sun. Good hair care over a long period really makes a difference!

- Avoid tight hats and caps as they contribute to poor circulation, depriving the hair of proper nutrition and stunting new hair growth. The sweat, dirt and grime around the rim inhibit follicle health and contribute to build-up.

- Always consult your health care provider for extreme causes of excess fallout and thinning. A medical condition or medication could be causing hair loss side-effects.

- Strive for balance and harmony in both your personal and professional lifestyle. High stress factors can cause your body to react by fluctuating hormone levels. This in turn causes excessive oil secretion (sebum) which results in hair loss.

- Pregnancy, nursing, menopause, and even birth control medication can cause constant changing factors on your nutritional needs and hormonal levels which contribute to hair loss and excess fallout.

- Avoid "crash and fad" diets. Proper nutritious meals along with vitamin and mineral supplements are a key factor for healthy hair and skin.

- Good hair care starts with awareness. These hair care tips, if followed consistently, will reduce excess fallout, hair loss, and promote new hair growth.

- Reduce hair loss effects by increasing your intake of vitamin C found in fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly citrus fruit and juices, parsley, broccoli, green peppers and black currants. Take a vitamin B complex everyday or brewers yeast. Increase your intake of protein found in meat, fish, liver, wheat germ, dried cooked beans and peas, tofu, cheese, milk and eggs.

- Take dietary supplements such as Vitamin B6, zinc & saw palmetto. Supplements are useful when you can't get enough from natural food sources.

- The Chinese believe that hair is nourished by the blood, and therefore influenced by the kidney & liver. Treatment is aimed at these organs using fleece flower root, wolfberry fruit or mulberry fruit.

- Eliminate stress or else it can be disastrous to your precious hair!

- Get enough sleep. Sleeping well is essential for the health of your hair as well as for the rest of your body.








There are ways you can help stop the grease from appearing but you have to work at it.

Do not wash everyday. The cleaner your hair is the more it can seep into your glands and harder it is to get rid of. When you do wash make sure you are washing with a cleaning shampoo and scrubbing the build up off. Take in mind that you also have to have a ph-balanced mild shampoo and lite scrubbing is recommended. Try to avoid conditioner at the roots, apply in the middle or on the ends.

Try to avoid oil in your daily food intake. And do eat more vegetables. You could visit your doctor but only after you check and consider your diet, drugs, alcohol, and your fatty food intake. Let's face it we see what McDonalds can do to your heart in a month, can you image your hair. You would be dripping everywhere.

Maybe it's time to change your shampoo. Ask your stylist what she or he would recommend. Avoid using shine products at all costs. Keep away from two-in-one shampoos and conditioners and any frizz serums.

To fix at the moment, rub a little Talcum Powder on your dried hair at the roots. Just make sure you wash it out. I wish they would event that magic product, but this will help until they do.




Here are 10 tips for to keep your hair strong, smooth, shiny and beautiful!

1. Keep your diet balanced, and eat protein and calcium rich foods. Stay away from junk foods! This is essential for healthy hair.

2. Foods and supplements to nourish your hair:


* Beans
* Yogurt
* Almonds
* Vitamin B
* Fish
* And of course, the magic potion for beauty - WATER

3. Before washing your hair, comb it well to make sure all knots has been loosened from your hair.

4. Before applying shampoo, use warm water (35 to 38 degrees Celsius) to run through your hair to rinse and wet it thoroughly.

5. When applying shampoo or conditioner, don't use your fingernails to scrape through your hair. Instead, use your palm and fingertips to massage your scalp and hair gently, in circular motions. This will help the circulation and also help to keep your hair shiny and smooth.

6. After rinsing away all the shampoo, run water over your hair for at least another half a minute (3 minutes is best) to ensure there are no remains of shampoo remaining in your hair, since this will cause a great deal of damage to your scalp.

7. When applying hair treatment products, do so just after you have washed your hair, so that your hair can absorb all the good stuff while it is half wet. This will be the best time for it to absorb nourishment.

8. NEVER go to bed with your hair wet! Hair that is half wet is most easily broken, and if you sleep during this time, your hair will be rubbing against each other, damaging your hair in the most terrible way.

9. Too much pressure may lead to hair loss! Relax... try some good relaxation methods such as soaking in a nice scented bath, listening to music, and eating healthy comfort foods such as strawberries and grapes.

10. Perming and coloring seriously damages your hair. Avoid it as much as possible. Also, when using hair setting products such as gel or putty, use as little as possible, because they hurt your scalp and hair. Wash them out thoroughly afterwards with a shampoo specially created for removing styling products.
