5 Expert-Approved Hair Care Tips for Healthier, Shinier Strands

When it comes to achieving healthy, glowing, salon-worthy hair, it’s not about luck—it’s about the right hair care routine and tools. At OllaBella, we believe you deserve to feel confident in your crown every day. That’s why we’ve gathered five essential, expert-approved tips to help you get the shiniest, healthiest hair of your life.

Let’s get into it:

1. Always Use a Heat Protectant

This step is a non-negotiable. Whether you're blow drying, curling, or straightening, applying a heat protectant creates a shield between your strands and high temperatures. It reduces moisture loss and prevents long-term damage like breakage or split ends. Pair your protectant with the OllaBella Cool Air Shot for even better heat control and styling safety.

Pro Tip: Look for protectants with nourishing ingredients like argan oil or keratin for extra shine.

2. Don’t Wash Your Hair Every Day

Washing your hair daily can strip it of its natural oils that keep it moisturized and shiny. Try to wash it only 2–3 times a week, depending on your hair type. Use a sulfate-free shampoo to keep your scalp healthy without drying out your strands.

Why it matters: Over-washing can lead to frizz, dullness, and an itchy scalp—not the vibe.

3. Use the Right Brush for Your Hair Goals

The brush you use makes a huge difference. The OllaBella Volumizing Hair Brush is designed to gently detangle while boosting volume and shine. It’s perfect for creating smooth blowouts with minimal damage.

Tip: Always start brushing from the ends and work your way up to avoid unnecessary breakage.

4. Deep Condition Weekly

Deep conditioning is essential for restoring moisture, strengthening the hair shaft, and boosting softness. Aim to use a deep conditioner or hair mask once a week, especially if your hair is exposed to heat styling regularly.

Pairing deep conditioning with tools like our OllaBella 3-in-1 Blow Dryer Hair Set helps lock in hydration with minimal heat exposure.

5. Finish Your Style With Cool Air

Here’s an industry secret: finishing your style with a cool air shot helps lock in your look and seal the cuticle for smoothness and shine. That’s why our OllaBella styling tools are equipped with Cool Air Technology—it’s not just a feature, it’s a game-changer.

Cool air = longer-lasting curls, smoother straight styles, and less frizz.
