Massage: You should gently massage your scalp in the shower to boost your circulation. Start at the front of your head and gently work your way to the back.

Moisturise: You should only apply conditioner to the mid length and ends of your hair.

Rinse: After you shampoo, try using vinegar as a rinse. It will help boost your hair shine.

Water: You should use mild cold water to rinse your hair, as this will close the cuticles which will ensure a shine.

Dry: You should squeeze the excess water from your hair and then blot your hair with a towel. This procedure will help to retain the moisture.

Comb: You should not brush wet hair, as at this stage it will be easily damaged. Using a wide tooth comb, work your hair in sections.

Finish: Let your hair dry naturally. You will find that heated styling appliances will damage the hair shaft. Spray some hair spay on a comb and run through the hair. This will tame your hair and give it that polished finish.
