Are you longing for healthy locks, but seeing more than your share of split ends and frizz? Watch out for these common hair care mistakes!

Washing your hair every day:

Daily washing can leach oils out of your follicles, robbing them of their healthy sheen. Use shampoo every 2 – 3 days to keep your hair clean and retain that gorgeous shine.

Using heat styling tools on wet hair: 

Applying heat to wet hair scorches it and can damage your follicles. And the solution is simple: make sure your hair is completely dry before using a heat product!

Roughly brushing out knots:

Quickly brushing out a knot can result in damaged strands. Apply a little conditioner and use your fingers to carefully detangle your hair before gently combing it to avoid unneeded ripping and tearing.

Rough towel drying:
