Switch on the TV or scroll through Instragram and all you’ll see is hair that is perfectly voluminous and glossy. Don’t you envy those perfect healthy-looking locks? However, in your quest to get hair like that, you instinctively reach out for products that promise to manage your hair to perfection, failing to realise that not all products may suit your hair. Each one of us has a unique hair type, and it’s best to pick care and styling products according to our specific needs.

So bid adieu to bad hair days by listening to your hair’s needs—read on as we tell you how.

GREASY/OILY HAIR

Shampoo–Conditioner Tip: Pick out an oil-control shampoo and pair it with a conditioner that manages dry hair. Condition only the ends, staying away from the scalp completely. This will ensure that your scalp is grease-free and your lengths don’t look dry. Also, avoid frequent hair washes as this can increase oil secretion from the scalp.
