5 Ways to Naturally Attain Healthy, Shiny Hair Without Breaking the Bank

Updated: October 30th, 2023

It is summer and everyone is outside enjoying themselves. But, as sweet as these months can be, there can be some sour consequences. Does dull hair ring a bell? Hours in chlorine pools and the sun can wear down your beautiful red locks.

The best news is that you can make your hair shiny and healthy without spending loads of money while giving your hair the care it needs – the natural way.

Here are our top ways to keep your hair shining throughout the summer months:

1. Finally Glossy® Shine & Luminosity Shampoo for Redheads

It took many years to custom-make the Finally Glossy® formula and we’re so excited for redheads to enjoy it. We’re thrilled to release another clean redhead beauty product. It is paraben-free, cruelty-free, sulfate-free, petroleum-free, mineral-oil, and vegan. It also contains no perfume, is free of gluten and is silicone-free, phthalate-free, formaldehyde-free and cocamidopropyl betaine-free. This clean formula is formulated with Vitamin B3, olive oil, coconut oil and green tea.

2. Soft Microfiber Hair Towel

When drying your hair opt to use a microfiber towel! Introducing the How to be a Redhead Soft Microfiber Hair Towel for Redheads. Because wet hair is at its most vulnerable, this custom microfiber towel gently and carefully absorbs moisture from your red hair and dries it quickly, all while protecting it from stretching and breakage. This design is uniquely shaped to wrap all of your hair securely (no matter the length), with an elastic strap to comfortably keep things in place. Your hair journey starts here, redheads.

3. Olive Oil

This is one of our favorite leave-in conditioners at home. Apply a quarter size and work through your hair. Wrap in a bun and leave in for 30 minutes.

4. Rosemary Oil

After styling your hair (especially if you use heated tools) it is usually craving moisture. Before and after styling, apply a dime size in the middle and ends of your hair.

5. Hair Sunscreen

In a spray bottle, combine ½ cup of sunscreen, ½ cup of water, and ¼ cup of gel (any type is fine).  Mix and shake very well. If it is too thick, add more water. Spray evenly throughout before hitting the sun. We love hair sunscreen because it prevents your red hair from fading and looking dull.

Rock it like a Redhead!
