Got some major hair issues after that long, cold winter? Pro stylist Justin German shares some tips and tricks for your best hair this spring.
“Not using conditioner is like putting your makeup on without moisturizer,” says Justin German, celebrity hairstylist and Pantene Consulting Stylist. However, 55 per cent of Canadian households still don’t use this product on the regular. The reason? They don’t think they need it: they’ve had a bad experience or they’ve picked the wrong products.
FIGHT FRIZZ
With warmer weather comes humidity, and that unfortunately means strands are more prone to frizz.
PRO TIP: Prep your hair with a frizz-fighting conditioner, and then use a cream-based product before styling to make hair more manageable. These products will not only smooth down the hair cuticle but also hydrate strands for a beautiful, shiny finish.
Pantene Pro-V Smooth & Sleek Conditioner “This features argan and avocado oils and fights frizz by hydrating the cuticle to get a smooth and shiny look that lasts.” MSRP $8.99
Pantene Pro-V BB Crème “It’s a beauty balm for the hair that helps give hair a healthy look and primes it for styling. Use it like you would a primer on your face” MSRP $11.99
DITCH THE DRY
Got dry strands, split ends and breakage from winter’s cold weather? Undo the damage by using a nourishing conditioner and then safely detangle your hair with a leave-in spray that doubles as a heat protectant.
PRO TIP: To keep things really smooth, blow-dry with the nozzle facing downwards to prevent frizz and fly-aways.
Pantene Pro-V Daily Moisture Renewal Conditioner “It has micro-moisturizers that hydrate every strand for soft and manageable hair without weighing it down.” MSRP $8.99
Pantene Pro-V Leave-In Conditioning Spray “This product is amazing at detangling so you’re not tugging on hair and breaking it, but what I also love is that it has antioxidants that help reduce protein loss so hair stays strong and doesn’t get damaged.” MSRP $11.99
