Natural Secrets of Shinny Hair Revealed

If you are wondering what makes your hair dull then here is the reason. When our hair cuticles do not lie flat, light does not get reflected from hair shafts and they look dull. But when the cuticles lie flat on each other the hair shines.
The first secret of shiny hair is perhaps the most inexpensive one. It’s cold water. No, I am not kidding. A cold shower can really bring back the shine to your hair. I am not asking you to forego warm showers altogether. What you need to do is at the end of your shower just wash your hair with some cold water. Cold water closes the hair cuticles and they reflect light to give a shine to our hair.
The second remedy is also very easy. Do not make the mistake I made. Buy hair products that suit your hair. If your hair is dry and you buy shampoos for oily hair then you will naturally end up with dull and frizzy hair! So before compulsively buying any product, try to know the product. This will save your money and hair too.
Here comes another secret which is not a secret at all. You must have heard about the benefits of healthy eating. But you may not know the positive effects it has on your hair.
Drink plenty of water to keep yourself well hydrated. Stick to the regime of drinking 8-9 glasses of water every day. You should drink water even when you are not feeling thirsty. Often we do not realize that we are dehydrated. If your body is hydrated your hair will also show the benefits of it.
Our hair is made up protein. To protect it and maintain it you need protein in your diet. Eat meat, fish and eggs which are rich sources of protein.
Nuts are very good for hair. So munch on some as snacks to have a shiny hair.
Vitamin E is known to add shine and shimmer to our hair. Good sources of it are nuts, seeds, asparagus and olives and spinach. Do not forget to include them in your diet.
Your kitchen is a good source for ingredients that can inexpensively make your hair shine. Take some apple cider vinegar and mix with water, spray it on your hair and then rinse thoroughly. Your hair will have that glow which you desperately wanted.
Honey is a natural moisturizer that can do wonder to your hair also. It moisturizes your hair and conditions it also. You can mix honey with the conditioner you use and condition as usual.
Lastly, brush your hair properly. It may seem very obvious but there are lots of people who do not brush hair properly. Every morning the first thing you should do is to take a broad bristled brush and thoroughly brush your hair with it. This will distribute the oil throughout the hair shaft and make it shine.
Adopt these simple methods and see how your hair shines with health. The added sheen will definitely make you proud, and that too naturally.
