Perfect hair

In France, they say: ‘Beautiful, healthy hair is a hairstyle in itself.’ When we admire the hair of actresses and models on the red carpet (and in everyday life), we realize that it’s not just about complex styling. Celebrities, for whom appearance is a crucial part of their profession, primarily focus on the condition of their hair.

What, besides working with stylists, helps them maintain their hair in excellent condition?

Tools 

Knowing how to handle hair without causing damage to it is an art that professionals master. The main focus is on professional tools. It’s crucial to understand your hair texture to choose the right ones.

For example, achieving a mirror-like shine is made possible with professional hair dryers and curling irons. Therefore, when purchasing, pay attention to the brands and models used by salon professionals, and don’t hesitate to ask for their advice.

Hair care products

We all know that there are bio-organic cosmetics with the most natural composition, and then there are more common ‘quick-action’ products.

Ideally, it’s best to choose pure organic care, which is less prevalent on the market. However, many brands like L’Oréal or Pantene offer good instant-action products. It’s important to understand that these products do not affect the condition of your hair; they are purely chemical products with an immediate effect.

For styling stars before the red carpet or photo shoots, professional stylists use different types of hair care depending on the desired effect – volume, sexiness, shine, or texture. For example, L’Oréal Elnett Hairspray Normal provides these effects.

Unlike regular cosmetics, bio-organic products deeply restore hair. Therefore, if your main concern is to restore health and vitality to your hair, consider brands like Phyto Haircare, the most reliable brand in hair treatment, as well as John Masters Organics and Maria Nila.

Perfect hairstyle

If you have planned to make a hairstyle for an important event, it’s best to use a conditioner on that day before doing any styling. After rinsing, your hair will remain soft, shiny, flexible, and easier to style. Try not to use too many products at once – pastes, sprays, or gels – as you risk ending up with a ‘dirty’ hair effect. If your hair is damaged and needs special care, consider conditioners like Phyto 7 Daily Hydrating Cream and Aveda Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair.

The shine 

To make your hair truly shine, you first need to dry it completely, regardless of the texture you plan to create afterward. Using a hairdryer and a round brush, you can dry your hair along its entire length, making it dry and silky. This is what gives it that shine. After this, you can use a curling iron to create curls, and to make your hair shine even more, apply a shine-enhancing serum. For example, U Argan Oil for hair or Silk 21 Silk Repair & Shine Serum.

Maintaining hair health

To make your hair more resilient to various actions, experts recommend washing it no more than once a week. Washing too frequently can make your strands thinner and less elastic. It can take about six months for your hair to recover from frequent shampoo use.

An alternative solution is to use natural henna. Henna creates a good protective layer for your hair and adds volume, but it makes it difficult to change your hair color afterward. Today, you can find henna powder for hair with various pigments, and this color is much more durable than regular dye.
