When it comes to looking after stressed-out hair, the right shampoo can make a world of difference. Look out for a shampoo that can deeply clean and remove product build-up without stripping your natural oils, then, opt for a conditioner that will seal your strands. Like this shampoo and conditioner pairing which are aptly called 'the therapist' because who's hair isn't in recovering from something?

Always protect your strands
While newer hair tools come with an adjustable heat seating; most people just use the same temperature without factoring in their hair type. As a general rule, the higher temperatures should only be used on thick and coarse hair. Switch on the lower setting if your hair has been coloured or chemically treated. For most hair types the medium setting is best.
For those who prefer to blowdry their hair than straighten it, always make sure you're picking a hairdryer with ionic technology that will produce negative ions and smoother cuticles and prevent frizz. Plus, if you're an avid user of the styling tools, it's best to introduce a heat protector to your routine, ensuring an added layer to not only shield hair from damage but stop frizz in its tracks.
