When hair is about 80 percent dry, finish drying hair using a large, round thermal brush to control hair during blowout. Working with sections of hair at a time, grip hair near the roots, positioning the brush as if you were going to wrap hair around the brush, and pull the brush down through hair keeping the blowdryer at a downwards angle to hair.

Say, hello to bananas, and kiss bad hair goodbye! Packed with potassium, folic acid, and vitamin E, BANANAS are a fruit worth going apes over. These three nutrients work to promote hair growth, as well as moisturize and build healthy shiny hair.   So, what are these nutrients? And, what can they do for hair?   Potassium : Bananas are well known for containing a high level of potassium, a key mineral that your body needs to function properly. Our bodies use potassium to create protein, build new muscle tissue, burn carbohydrates, hydrate our skin, and grow hair. In fact, research has shown that a lack of potassium can actually cause hair loss. The good news though, is that simply adding potassium rich foods, like bananas, back into your diet can stop hair loss and promote hair growth. Folic acid : Despite the confusing name, Folic Acid, or Folate, is actually a vitamin commonly referred to as Vitamin B9.  Like Potassium, Vitamin B9 has several significant roles i...

This simple hair mask contains only three ingredients: honey, castor oil, and egg yolk. Each of these ingredients has a unique set of nutrients critical to healthy hair.   Honey  has the ability to deeply hydrate hair because it is hygroscopic and has the ability to attract and retain moisture. This is why many people  consider honey as a natural humectant. But, aside from its moisturizing benefits, honey is, also, an antioxidant, an antimicrobial agent, and is packed full of nutritious substances like amino acids and vitamin C, that work together to speed the growth of healthy tissues and hair.   Castor oil has an abundance of ricinoleic acid, an amino acid that has been used as a bactericide for years. Aside from its medical use, castor oil has been said to minimize dandruff by having a soothing, moisturizing effect on the scalp and on hair.   Egg yolks  are another superfood that have amazing moisturizing, strengthening, and hair gro...

When it comes to healthy hair, it turns out, honey really is THE BEES KNEES! People have been using honey for thousands of years. The oldest known record of honey being harvested by people is painted on a cave in Spain. The cave art depicts a woman harvesting wild honey, and is believed to be between 7,000-15,000 years old. Honey makes an excellent sweetener, but we haven’t been cultivating honey just used for its sweet, pleasurable taste. Honey has also been used for its cosmetic and healing properties for thousands of years. The medicinal use of honey is mentioned in ancient texts including the Bible, Koran, and Torah, and is documented for its healing and cosmetic properties by the Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. Honey was widely used for its cosmetic benefits by the Ancient Egyptians in makeup and anti-aging creams. There is even historical evidence that Queen Cleopatra regularly bathed in a mixture of honey and goats milk, as a moisturizing, anti-aging r...
