Boost your shine for red carpet-worthy hair

Wash with a repair shampoo and conditioner

The first thing Harry does for Lauren is shampoo her hair with John Frieda’s Full repair haircare line. “It will give you the look and feel of really healthy repaired hair,” says Harry. To get salon hair from your own home, start in the shower. Pick a shampoo that will provide some extra TLC to hair with damaged, split ends. Here are some more drugstore product picks with professional results.

KMS Moist repair shampoo: They only have salons in California but, luckily, you can purchase the goods online. Learn more about their haircare line from their website and purchase here.

Pureology’s Essential repair system: The natural ingredients in this Pureology system (soymilk, biotin, chamomile and olive oil) help to reconstruct any damage and return your hair to a manageable state.

Dabble in some style products

Next, Harry sprays a Perfect Ends Sheer Mist by John Frieda on Lauren’s split ends. All it takes are a few spritzes here and there. Then, use your fingers to run the product through your ends. “It helps by sealing the ends that already are a little frayed.”

Fekkai also makes a great glossing mist. Don’t spray this on damp hair like the John Frieda line because this product is more geared towards finished hairstyles. Its olive oil infusion is the root of the healthy shine it’ll lend your locks.

Tame those darned flyaways

Even after all this, Harry says, “It’s really hard to get them to sit flat.” For Lauren’s photo shoot, he had her try the John Frieda Full Repair Flyaway Tamer. “It feels like a high-end salon product,” she reports. Easy and to use, it will have you wishing you get flyaways just so you can beat them down.

Also to help tame frizzy hair, Ulta sells a Phytolisse serum. The lighweight serum is non-greasy and a great quick fix for the strands that get away.

Master basic style tips

After you’ve parted your hair in the place it flatters your facial features most and you’ve applied a sheer mist to your damaged ends, use a brush to pull your hair dry. The real key comes next, Harry says — the flat iron.

“People with straight hair wouldn’t typically think that using a flat iron would benefit them.” It seems logical to us, given they already have straight hair, but Harry Josh says no. “Really the magic is the shine. When you’re compressing that much heat against hair strands, you’re getting a glossy finish and that’s key to any red carpet.”
