Do you ever wonder what hair tips and tricks stylists use to get their clients' hair looking great all the time? If you suffer from hair that is dry, limp, or damaged, there is hope. Using these hair care tips from experts and celebrity stylists can revitalize your hair, help you prevent damage, and make every day a good hair day.





Cool Air Styling
Heat is one of the biggest causes of damage to hair; it dries out hair and gives it a dull appearance. If you have to use a hair dryer, use a heat-protectant spray, such as Paul Mitchell Heat Seal, $14. Stylist Oscar Blandi suggests using cool air to help set your style after your hair is completely dry.



Cool Water Rinsing
Many professional hair tips involve avoiding heat or repairing your hair from heat damage. Like with heat styling, hot water can also dry out your hair and damage your scalp. Stylist George Papanikolas suggests rinsing your hair in cool water to help seal the cuticle and give you a shine boost.



Don't Shampoo Daily
Daily shampooing can lead to stripping the natural oils from your hair and scalp. Papanikolas also recommends a dry shampoo to extend the time between shampoos and add texture and volume. Try Batiste Strength and Shine, $9.



Protection from the Elements
Just like you protect your skin from the sun and wind, you need to protect your hair. Bobbi Brown recommends using a coconut oil mask to heal and hydrate dried out, summer hair.



Boost Your Shine
For an immediate fix before a special occasion, mix a few drops of smoothing serum in with your deep conditioning treatment. It will make an instant difference and give you healthy shiny hair. Stylist and salon owner Antonio Prieto recommends using Liquid Gloss by Sebastian, $8.99.

Ask for Stylist Recommendations
While do-it-yourself hair tips are important, having a great stylist is a necessity. If you don't know one, get recommendations. If you see someone with great hair, stylist Andrew Collinge says to just go ahead and ask them who does their hair. They will appreciate the compliment, and you may get a great new stylist.

Swimming Protection
Whether you prefer the pool or the beach, both are terrible for your hair's health. Chlorinated water and saltwater can cause damage quickly. Mia Silverio of the Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa suggests a clarifying shampoo to get all of the chlorine or salt residue out of your hair. Then deep-condition.



Use the Right Brush
Herbal Essences stylist Charles Baker Strahan recommends not ignoring your scalp in order "to enhance blood flow to the follicles." Using a hairbrush with natural bristles is gentler on your hair and is great for your scalp. Boar-bristle brushes, similar to GranNaturals Boar Bristle Paddle Brush, $22, have been used since the 1800s for their effectiveness.

Create Volume and Texture
Stylist Adir Abergel creates amazing volume by spritzing volumizer at the roots of damp hair. Then he pulls sections straight up with a round brush and hits the sections with a blow dryer. Once the sections are dry, you will see incredible, sexy volume!

Get Rid of Build Up
One of the hair tips recommended by PRO Beauty Tools stylist Johnny Lavoy, is using a hand-cleaning wipe that is alcohol-free to remove buildup and clean your hair without having to shampoo. Just run it over your hair to freshen it up!



Try a Weekly Mask
Andrew Barton recommends a weekly deep conditioning mask to revitalize and pamper your hair. Try an olive oil treatment to protect and heal your hair and scalp. Simply take a tablespoon or two of olive oil, massage it into your hair and scalp, and let it sit for about 20 minutes before shampooing.
