Fast Fixes For Shiny, Healthy Hair

Sun-drenched days, swimming pools and salt water can wreak havoc on your hair, especially in Malaysia’s hot and humid climate. This leaves previously lustrous lengths prone to frizz, colour fade and flatness, says hairstylist Barney Martin. We zoom in on six common hair concerns and our top product picks to regain healthy tresses.

FEND OFF FRIZZ

When the humidity soars, moisture penetrates the hair cuticle causing strands to swell, resulting in a flyaway effect. Opt for sprays or serums containing argan oil (to soften and shield from environmental aggressors) and antioxidants (to restore shine). Spritz to damp hair before styling for best results. “Scrape wet lengths into a low chignon, high topknot or bun,” says Barney. “This look is perfect for frizzy, hard-to-tame hair.”

STOP COLOUR FADE
