Follow these tips to achieve perfect hair condition

· Brush Strokes. Before shampooing, brush your hair to remove surface dirt and any tangles. Forget the myth that brushing 100 strokes daily is beneficial. Over-vigorous brushing can tear and generally weaken the hair shaft.

· Cleanse Ease. Take short cuts to remove any build-up of styling products in your hair. Massage shampoo into dry hair and rinse it out with warm water. This will be sufficient to remove impurities and your hair shouldn’t need another wash.

· Scalp Treat. Moist your scalp in the shower to boost circulation, improve hair health and reduce stress. Knead your scalp gently using the pads of your fingers. Start at the front of your head and work down to the nape of your neck.

· Moist Hair. Only apply conditioner to the ends and midlengths of your hair, (the hair near your scalp should have enough natural hydrating oils). Applying conditioner near the roots will make your hair feel greasy shortly after washing.

· Final Rinse. Boost hair shine and remove tangles by using vinegar as a rinse after shampooing. Dilute one tablespoon of vinegar in 600 ml tepid water and pour it over your hair. Comb it through and then rinse it out with warm water.

· Water Works. Hot water causes the cuticles to swell, creating an uneven surface and making locks appear dull. Use cold water to rinse your hair. The coldness of the water will close the cuticles, ensuring all-over hair shine.

· Squeeze Ease. Never towel dry your hair, as it robs the locks of moisture and destroys elasticity. Squeeze excess water from the hair using your fingertips and then blot the hair with a towel. This helps to retain vital moisture.

· Tangle Free. Never brush wet hair. It is swollen twice its normal size and is susceptible to damage. Use a wide-tooth comb and work through wet hair in sections, starting with the ends. Comb your hair until it is completely tangle-free.

· Styling Sense. Leave your tresses to dry naturally, as heated styling appliances damage the hair shaft. Twist long hair into a topknot and leave it to set as the hair dries. Apply a small amount of gel to short hair and comb it through.

· Cuticle Tamer. Once your hair is dry, spray a fine mist of hair spray onto a comb and run it through the hair. This will tame any stray cuticles or flyaway ends and give the hair a neat, polished finish, ensuring long-lasting perfection for your hairstyle.
