Tips for Getting Sleek Hair

* Begin with a good haircut. Your hair is never going to look sleek and shiny if it has split ends. In fact, split ends will only make your hair look frizzy. Plan to have your hair trimmed whenever you begin seeing split ends to keep frizzy hair at bay.

* Get a style that suits your face. Some people look great with long, straight hair. It’s not the best style for everyone. Even if you have curly hair it can be cut in a flattering way to make it look healthy.

* If your hair is very curly or frizzy you may want to use a chemical relaxer, particularly around your face.

* Anti Frizz gel (such as John Frieda’s Frizz Ease) can do wonders to help your curly hair seem less frizzy. It doesn’t take a large amount of gel; a dime-sized amount is more than enough when massaged into damp hair.

* Those wanting super-straight hair may want to use a flat iron. Use a thermal protection spray to protect your hair against the heat, divide your hair into two-inch sections and use the flat iron on dry hair.

* Hair masks will also help tame frizzy hair. Apply a hair mask once a week to replace moisture and provide deep conditioning for hair that tends to be fly-away.
