BE PICKY WITH YOUR SHAMPOO

Your hair needs as much hydration as possible so avoid shampoos with high alcohol content. Opt for shampoos with hydrating ingredients like glycerin, hyaluronic acid, aloe Vera, etc.

WATCH HOW YOU WASH

Over washing your hair can make it dry and frizzy from the lack of moisture. Also, try to wash and rinse with cool or warm water. Heat will worsen the situation. The same goes for styling. Tools like curlers, hand dryers, stretchers, etc can cause heat damage as well.

PROTECT YOU HAIR

DUMP YOUR TOWEL
