Here’s How To Make Your Hair Glam At Home

While we can finally be so excited that a ton of salons are opening again, some of us still may not feel comfortable going out yet. If you are not ready to see your hairstylist yet, that’s totally fine. In the meantime, you can try some ways to make your hair look gorgeous at home (that do not involve cutting your own hair or bangs). Here’s how to make your hair glam at home!

1. Kristen Ess Signature Hair Gloss

You probably know of the amazing hairstylist, Kristen Ess. And, during this crazy time of staying at home, her signature hair gloss is here to help us all. She created her own in-shower gloss, which is the perfect product if you haven’t had your hair done in months. It’s available in 13 different tones, so depending on what you want to do to your hair – you have options. Here’s the best part, it can help get rid of the brassy tones you have in your hair, without actually putting permanent dye on your head. This means, while you’re in between deciding if you want to go lighter or not, you can get rid of the brassiness in the meantime and not do any damage to your hair. The signature gloss has you wet your hair (after you perform a proper allergy test), and then you can mix the developer and color together, and leave it on your hair from 10-20 minutes. You can shampoo and condition your hair as normal, but it’s probably best you cut down on the shampooing if it’s more often than usual. One signature gloss says it lasts 3-4 weeks, so if you don’t wash your hair as much, it will obviously last a bit longer. The in-shower gloss treatments are toning, and can be used on color treated hair or your natural hair color. If you have dark brown hair, or dye your hair dark brown – you may notice that you tend to get some red, or orange tones in there when the color fades or your hair is in the sun a lot. Give Kristen Ess “Bittersweet” gloss a try, to rule out any brassy tones. Your hair won’t appear any darker, but it will appear fresher, shinier, and instantly look healthy. This product is also the perfect way to make your hair glam at home if you want to try something fun, like the “Amethyst Stone” gloss, that adds tones of purple to your hair. You can find all of these glosses at Kristen Ess’ website, and at your local Target!

2. Moroccan Oil Color Depositing Mask

One of the best ways to take care of your hair is doing a hair mask. Masks are so soft, and beneficial for your hair, and are good to use when switching up your conditioner for some extra moisture. You can use a mask a couple times a week, instead of conditioning after using shampoo. Moroccan Oil products can be found at Sephora, and have their own line of color depositing hair masks. What this means is you can add some shine to your hair, while also brightening up your color. The color depositing masks come in 7 colors (cocoa, platinum, rose gold, champagne, bordeaux, aquamarine, hibiscus). So while you’re adding some fun to your hair, you will also be keeping it healthy. This is another great product to make your hair glam at home, with temporary color. You can find out how each color will show up on the color of your hair on the Moroccan Oil website.

3. Kevin Murphy Shimmer Shine

The sun is not the only thing that will shine this summer – your hair easily can too, with Kevin Murphy’s Shimmer Shine spray. This product not only looks super pretty and gold in the bottle, it will also leave your hair leave glowing. Shimmer Shine is a spray for your hair that works like a setting spray would for your makeup, you use it as a finishing product for your hair to keep it shiny all day. Some sprays can leave your hair feeling heavy, or greasy, and can make you feel like you need to wash your hair again. This is a weightless spray that will make your hair glam at home, or anywhere you go.

4. dpHUE Apple Cider Vinegar Hair Rinse

We know, the idea of apple cider vinegar sounds awful. But, we also know it’s really good for you. So, dpHUE has the perfect way to leave your hair feeling clean as ever, and don’t worry, it won’t be left smelling like actual apple cider vinegar. They made an apple cider vinegar rinse, that will help wash away the day, but will leave your color still looking fresh, and your overall hair feeling healthy. You would not use the apple cider vinegar hair rinse everyday, but can be substituted as a cleanser for your hair. It’s made with apple cider vinegar, aloe vera, lavender extract, fire tulip and argan oil. So, you can be sure to make your hair glam, strong and clean while keeping it natural with your choice of products.
