The boredom of home isolation has turned many of us into hair stylists, with our hair becoming the canvas for our experiments.
Whether your hair has been damaged by box dyes at your DIY home hair salon, or years of heat usage has sucked the liveliness out of your hair, by adding these 5 small, but effective steps into your hair-care routine you will stun everyone with your luscious locks when finally emerging from the home quarantine!
1. Boar bristle brush
If you have long hair like me, you know the feeling of having the driest ends despite the greasy roots. The natural boar bristles in this brush are just like human hair, so therefore they absorb natural hair oils from your scalp and evenly distribute them throughout the length of your hair, allowing it to nourish your dry ends. Don’t forget to clean the brush regularly, though! Luckily this one comes together with a free brush cleaner, only for $13.97
“Found this brush on Amazon, got it the next day and I’m thrilled with it. My hair is more manageable, softer and stays straighter. Plus it came with cute bag and a tool for removing hair out of your brush and it works. Totally recommend!!!“
says Sandra
2. Wide tooth comb
Did you know that wet hair is much more brittle? Brushing wet hair causes a lot of damage, and therefore we recommend using this gentle wide-tooth comb. You can use it in the shower to evenly apply your conditioner or to comb through your hair right after a wash. Check out this double-pack for only $5.37
“I have thick, naturally curly hair. I love this comb. I keep them in the shower, one even has a hook for the shower head.“

3. Satin pillow cases
Our hair spends almost half of its “life” on a pillow. Cheap pillow cases cause friction on your hair, so it’s worth investing in a satin pillowcase which is much softer than regular cotton and gentle on your hair (don’t forget to wear your hair in a protective hairstyle while you sleep too!). Get this double-pack now for only $9.99
“LOVE THESE! They are a beautiful shade of gray, well-made and a perfect price! I ordered these to help protect against hair-breakage and I’ve already noticed a huge difference!!!”

4. Shampoo brush
Scalp massages stimulate hair growth. This amazing shampoo brush will make hair washing an amazing experience for your scalp. It also helps to remove the natural skin buildup, so you should definitely give it a try if you’re someone who struggles with dandruff. We recommend this one, as it seems to be everyone’s favorite, for only $7.58
“After I purchased the Heeta hair scalp massager after about three weeks my scalp started feeling wonderful and rejuvenated. I no longer am loosing any of my hair like I was on the bathroom floor plus I don’t have any more dandruff issues.”

5. No crease clips
Finally, a smaller accessory that will save your hair from those annoying hair clip lines. Clip away your hair when applying make up or secure your curls. Also, try clipping your hair at the roots while you are waiting for it to dry, in order to achieve that voluminous look. This pack of six clips is only $4.99
“I have think and course curly hair.. even when it is straightened it’s near impossible to hold back with styling clips. These are so great! Especially for keeping hair out of your face while doing makeup. The best part is these don’t crease your hair “
says Laila
