If Your Hair Is Straight
Lucky you. "Straight hair has great natural shine, because its flat cuticle is highly light-reflective," says New York City salon owner Paul Labrecque.
HOW TO
• To get maximum shine, wash and condition your hair, then blast it with a cold-water rinse for about three seconds. "This helps seal in conditioner, making hair easier to style and adds a ton of shine," says Labrecque.
• Blow-dry while brushing with a natural boar-bristle paddle brush. Apply a bit of light finishing serum to frizzy areas (like ends). Finish with shine-enhancing hairspray.

TIP
If you've been O.D.-ing on styling products, buildup could be making your hair dull. Use a clarifying shampoo like Frederic Fekkai Apple Cider Clarifying Shampoo for seven days, then once a week.
