Washing your hair may seem simple, but doing it properly is essential for maintaining healthy, shiny, and manageable hair. Many people are never taught the proper steps for washing hair. You were likely handed a bottle of shampoo and conditioner, and that summed it up. In this article, we'll guide you through properly washing your hair, from selecting the right products to mastering the correct techniques. By following these expert tips, you'll be on your way to achieving salon-quality results from home How to Wash Your Hair Properly Step-by-Step  You probably don’t give much thought to washing your hair. You buy shampoo and maybe conditioner without digging too deeply. You lather, rinse, and condition in the shower. However, is your hair the best it can be? Is it healthy and easy to manage?  This guide to washing hair will start you on the right track to achieving healthy, flowing locks. We will show you how to select the right hair products, prep your hair, and more. Plus, you’ll get tips on how to look like you just stepped out of the salon. 1. Selecting the Right Shampoo and Conditioner  Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Wash and Conditioner are the ideal choice for all hair types. They’re infused with Mirsalehi Honey, our favorite humectant, to hydrate and nourish your hair without weighing it down. They cleanse the hair gently, maintaining its natural moisture balance to ensure that your hair remains healthy and vibrant, even with regular shampooing.  2. Brushing and Detangling  Before the first drop of water hits your hair, thoroughly brush and detangle it. If you have excessive tangles or knots, use a wide-tooth comb and leave-in conditioner. Start at the roots and work out to the ends as gently as possible. When all the knots and tangles are removed, thoroughly brush and smooth hair. This leads to better results when you shampoo and condition. 3. Adjust the Water Temperature Before you jump head first under the showerhead, check the temperature of the water. Water that is too hot can damage your hair. On the other hand, your shampoo and conditioner may not penetrate your hair if the water is too cold. Make sure the water is lukewarm toward the cool side.  4. Wet Your Hair Thoroughly   Simply standing under the showerhead is not effective at saturating your hair. If you have a removable head, use it to reach under and around your hair. If you stand under the showerhead, tilt your head from side to side for complete saturation. If you have long hair, lift sections to ensure every inch is completely wet.  5. Apply Shampoo  Pour a coin-sized amount of shampoo into your palm. It may not seem like enough shampoo, but following these instructions is typically more than sufficient. Rub your palms together to spread the shampoo across both palms. Start rubbing shampoo into your hair, beginning at the roots and working down to the ends. Gently massage your scalp with your fingertips and work the shampoo through your hair. You may need to add more shampoo if you have long or thick hair. Continue to lather each section of hair from roots to tip until your entire head has been cleaned.  6. Massage the Scalp Your scalp should be massaged every time you wash your hair. Make it part of your shampooing and self-care routine. Massage in a circular motion using your fingertips. This exfoliates and stimulates the scalp. Massage each area of the scalp and massage the entire head.  Massaging your scalp has many benefits, including: Boosts circulation  Provide nourishment to the hair follicles Removes product buildup and dandruff flakes   Exfoliates and unclogs hair follicles, preventing dandruff Stimulates hair growth   Massaging your scalp is also calming and relaxing. End all your shampoos with a scalp massage for a healthy scalp.  7. Rinse Well Rinsing is important. Soap residue leaves your hair lifeless and flat. Make sure the water is lukewarm and follow these steps: Tilt head so the water flows from roots to ends; Use your fingers to lift sections and distribute the water gently; Continue rinsing for 60-90 seconds until water runs clear Rinse each section thoroughly. Shampoo residue will prevent the conditioner from being absorbed.  8. Condition Your Hair   Pour a small amount of conditioner into your palm. Rub your palms together so that both hands have conditioner. Evenly distribute the conditioner throughout your hair using your fingers or a wide-toothed comb. The conditioner should applied be from mid-length to the ends, with most of the product on the ends. Lastly, bring your hands up to the roots and massage the remaining product on the roots.    Allow the conditioner to penetrate your hair for 3-5 minutes before rinsing. As the conditioner soaks in, run a wide-tooth comb through your hair to remove any tangles. This also helps to spread the conditioner throughout your hair.  9. Final Rinse   Times up. It’s time for the final rinse. Use lukewarm to cool water to rinse each section of your hair until the water runs clear. Use your fingers to ensure each section is completely rinsed. Finally, once the water runs clear, adjust the water temperature to colder and rinse one final time. The cold water helps to seal the hair shafts and adds extra shine.  10. Proper Towel Drying Technique Properly towel drying your hair is just as important as properly washing it. The wrong towel or rubbing your hair over aggressively can cause frizz and damage. The proper technique to follow is below: Use a microfiber towel  Wrap gently to absorb moisture – do not rub   Blot hair one section at a time; never wind it up in a ball   Avoid pulling hair strands while wet Do not leave wrapped for more than a few minutes; this causes over-drying and frizzy hair Delicately squeeze the excess moisture from hair. Whenever possible, allow hair to air dry. Airdrying maintains the integrity of the hair fibers.  How to Achieve Salon Results at Home Now that you have learned how to wash your hair properly, you can look like you stepped out of the salon every time you wash your hair. Always use these tips from salon professionals to look salon fresh: Assess Your Routine Regularly: Your hair is constantly changing. If you notice your hair is not styling the same as it has or doesn’t feel as healthy, it may be time to change up your routine.  Dry Your Hair Before Styling: Styling tools use heat; if your hair is not 100% dry, it will break. Don’t use curling irons, straightening tools, or other heat-activated tools until your hair is dry. This also makes your style last longer. If you use heated tools, apply a heat-protectant first.  Choose the Right Hairbrush: Choose a quality hairbrush. Soft bristles add shine and reduce frizz, while brushes with holes add volume. Deep Condition Regularly: You should have a deep conditioning hair mask that you use regularly to hydrate and nourish your hair.  Consider a Scalp Treatment: You can also consider using a scalp treatment every other week since healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp! Achieving salon results at home also means limiting the number of heat styling tools you use. Lastly, you don’t need to wash your hair every day. Follow the guidelines for your hair type and give yourself a break between washes. If your hair is color-treated, naturally dry, or brittle, try to avoid clarifying shampoos more than once every 2-3 weeks. How Often Should I Wash My Hair? For the average person with straight, medium-textured hair, daily washing is fine if this is what they want. If it is fine or dry, damaged hair, less frequent washing is best —every other day or 2-3 times per week max. Coarser, thicker-textured hair types can also go longer between washings.  If your hair is naturally oily, you may need to wash it more often. On the other hand, if you have very dry hair, you may want to wash less frequently. You can adjust how often you wash your hair based on your hair type, scalp, and style. You can typically tell if your hair needs to be washed by the feel and how well it does or does not style.  WRAPPING UP  Now that you know how to properly wash your hair, visit Gisou’s hair collection to find the products to make your locks healthy, shiny, and beautiful. We have a Honey Infused Hair Wash and Conditioner, which are suitable for all hair types,  as well as partner products to use as a treatment or for styling.   

De Jayme Jo à Dina Galwash , les boucles, les vagues et le volume sont à la mode. Et n'oublions pas les boucles signature de Negin . Lorsque vos cheveux semblent plats ou un peu ternes, les boucles et les ondulations leur donnent ce volume sexy et de célébrité que nous envions tous. Mais apprendre à les coiffer peut être un défi. Ce que vous ne savez peut-être pas, c'est qu'il existe de nombreuses façons de boucler vos cheveux ! Spirales serrées, grosses vagues de plage, boucles volumineuses de tapis rouge… il existe de nombreuses méthodes de curling à essayer et chacune donne une boucle et une texture différentes. Donc, si vous avez l'impression d'être dans une ornière de coiffure, essayez l'une de ces nouvelles façons amusantes de boucler les cheveux. Quelque chose d'aussi simple que de changer de coiffure peut améliorer toute votre humeur ! Ce qu'il faut savoir avant de boucler vos cheveux Avant de nous plonger dans les différentes façons de boucler vos cheveux, il y a quelques choses que vous devez savoir. Tout d'abord, nous voulons souligner à quel point il est important de préparer et de protéger les cheveux chaque fois que vous utilisez de la chaleur. Avant de boucler vos cheveux, appliquez notre base de polissage infusée de propolis pour ajouter de la brillance et une tenue flexible. Ensuite, appliquez notre spray thermoprotecteur infusé à la propolis pour éviter les dommages. Gardez à l'esprit que les grands barils et les grandes sections produisent des boucles plus lâches, tandis que les petits barils et les petites sections produisent des boucles plus serrées. Si vous préférez les grosses boucles rebondissantes, optez pour l'outil de curling de 1 pouce de Gisou et prenez des sections plus larges et plus épaisses enroulées librement autour du canon. Que vous utilisiez un fer à friser ou un fer à lisser pour boucler vos cheveux, il est également important de choisir la meilleure température pour votre type de cheveux. Pour les cheveux fins, abîmés, traités chimiquement ou secs, utilisez toujours le réglage efficace le plus bas. Les cheveux épais auront besoin d'un réglage de température plus élevé pour produire une boucle durable. Laissez chaque section chauffer complètement avant de relâcher votre fer à friser. Ne pas laisser la section chauffer complètement est la principale cause de boucles qui tombent trop rapidement. Laissez la boucle reposer dans la paume de votre main pendant quelques secondes avant de la relâcher complètement. Ensuite, assurez-vous que chaque boucle est complètement froide avant de la coiffer. Appliquez quelques gouttes d' huile capillaire infusée au miel de Gisou dans vos cheveux après les avoir bouclés pour emprisonner l'humidité, ajouter de la brillance et éliminer les frisottis. Coiffez toujours les cheveux fraîchement bouclés avec vos doigts ou un peigne à dents larges. Évitez d'utiliser une brosse sur les cheveux bouclés car cela pourrait arracher la boucle. Un vaporisateur de fixatif à tenue souple fixera les boucles sans les rendre croustillantes. Notre spray texturisant infusé à la propolis est le choix parfait pour une tenue, une texture et une définition flexibles sans raideur ni effet collant. Si vous débutez dans l'art de boucler vos cheveux avec un fer à friser ou un fer à lisser, pensez à vous entraîner d'abord sans le fer à friser. Cela vous permettra de maîtriser les techniques de bouclage sans vous brûler ni appliquer de chaleur inutile sur vos cheveux. 8 façons différentes de boucler vos cheveux Maintenant que nous avons couvert les bases, plongeons dans huit façons différentes de boucler les cheveux, avec et sans chaleur. Façons de boucler vos cheveux avec un fer à friser Voici trois façons différentes de boucler vos cheveux avec un fer à friser. Chaque technique conduira à différents types de boucles en fonction de la taille du canon, de la taille des sections et de la méthode que vous utilisez pour enrouler vos cheveux autour de la baguette. Boucles larges et volumineuses avec un fer à friser Si vous voulez une boucle large avec beaucoup de volume, essayez la technique de l'emballage à plat. Vous pouvez boucler les cheveux loin de votre visage, vers celui-ci ou alterner, selon votre préférence. Prenez simplement une section verticale de cheveux, choisissez la direction dans laquelle vous voulez boucler et concentrez-vous sur le maintien des cheveux plats pendant que vous les enroulez autour du fer. Enveloppez jusqu'à ce que vous arriviez aux extrémités et maintenez pendant environ 15 secondes. Relâchez doucement les cheveux et laissez les boucles refroidir avant de les coiffer doucement avec vos doigts. Plus vos sections sont larges et épaisses, plus vos boucles seront lâches. Nous vous recommandons de commencer avec des sections d'environ 1 ½" à 2" d'épaisseur et d'expérimenter jusqu'à ce que vous trouviez la taille de boucle qui vous convient. Faites attention à ne pas tordre les cheveux pendant que vous les enveloppez, sinon vous n'obtiendrez pas les mêmes résultats ! Vagues lâches avec un fer à friser Si vous aimez le look des vagues lâches, essayez cette technique avec un fer à friser de 1 à 2 pouces. Pour obtenir le look, séparez une section de cheveux de 1 ½ ”et un enveloppement plat sans torsion jusqu'à ce que vous soyez à peu près à mi-chemin de la longueur de vos cheveux. Laissez la section chauffer complètement, puis relâchez-la et enroulez à plat le reste de la section dans la direction opposée. Laissez les extrémités ouvertes pour un look plus naturel. Laissez les cheveux refroidir complètement avant de les peigner avec les doigts pour séparer les boucles. Définissez le look avec notre spray texturant à tenue flexible pour une définition et une tenue. Boucles en spirale avec un fer à friser Si vous aimez les boucles serrées en spirale avec texture, cette technique est faite pour vous. Pour ce look, vous enroulerez des sections de ½" autour de votre fer à friser de 1". Tordez toute la section de la racine à la fin, en veillant à envelopper toute la section dans la même direction. Vous pouvez boucler tous les cheveux dans la même direction, vers ou loin de votre visage, selon votre préférence. Ou vous alternez les directions pour une boucle multidirectionnelle et plus naturelle. Pour des boucles plus durables, laissez chaque section chauffer complètement avant de la relâcher dans votre paume. Laissez-le reposer dans votre paume pendant quelques secondes avant de le lâcher complètement. Laissez vos cheveux refroidir complètement, puis secouez vos boucles avec vos doigts pour les séparer et ajouter du volume. Façons de boucler vos cheveux avec un lisseur Il existe également plusieurs façons de boucler les cheveux avec un fer plat. Voici deux techniques à essayer. Boucles de ruban avec un fer plat Les boucles de ruban sont des boucles serrées qui ont beaucoup de rebond. L'une des meilleures choses à propos de cette technique est que les boucles peuvent durer des jours, se desserrant progressivement en une vague de plage au fil du temps. Commencez avec une section de cheveux de taille moyenne d'environ ½ "d'épaisseur et 1" de large. Tenez la section dans une main avec le fer plat en position verticale dans l'autre main. Votre paume doit faire face à votre tête. Fermez votre lisseur à la racine de vos cheveux et tordez-le de manière à ce que votre paume soit maintenant tournée vers votre tête. Faites glisser lentement votre lisseur le long des cheveux, jusqu'à la fin, et relâchez. Laissez les cheveux refroidir puis séparez les boucles avec vos doigts. Appliquez 2 à 3 gouttes de notre huile capillaire infusée au miel dans les cheveux pour dompter les frisottis et ajouter de la brillance, vaporisez avec notre vaporisateur texturant infusé à la propolis , et le tour est joué. Ondes en S avec un fer plat Cette technique crée des ondes lâches en « S », similaires aux ondes de poussée ou de doigt , à l'aide d'un fer à repasser. Essentiellement, vous allez créer une forme en S avec chaque section de cheveux et utiliser votre fer plat pour définir la forme. Le résultat est une vague très lâche et d'apparence naturelle. Prenez une section horizontale de vos cheveux et pincez avec votre pouce et votre index directement sur le cuir chevelu. Descendez la section en forme de S, en pinçant et en chauffant avec votre lisseur au fur et à mesure. Répétez jusqu'à ce que vous atteigniez la fin de la section. Laissez vos cheveux refroidir avant de passer vos doigts dessus pour séparer les vagues. Le résultat sera une vague lâche et organique avec une texture totalement différente de celle que vous obtiendriez avec un fer à friser. N'hésitez pas à vaporiser avec notre spray texturant infusé à la propolis pour une longévité accrue. Façons de boucler les cheveux sans chaleur Les outils chauffants peuvent vous donner des boucles et des ondulations incroyables qui durent, mais parfois vous voulez donner à vos cheveux une pause de la chaleur . La bonne nouvelle est qu'il existe d'innombrables façons de boucler les cheveux sans chaleur. Vagues lâches sans chaleur La façon la plus simple de boucler les cheveux longs sans chaleur est de tresser vos cheveux avant de vous coucher et de dormir dessus. Une grande tresse créera des vagues lâches, tandis que deux tresses plus petites ou plus créeront des vagues plus serrées. Lorsque vous vous réveillez le matin, détachez la ou les tresses et faites couler quelques gouttes d' huile capillaire infusée au miel dans vos cheveux pour les rendre doux et brillants, et pour dompter les frisottis. Vagues de plage sans chaleur Cette technique fonctionnera mieux si vos cheveux ont déjà une certaine texture, qu'il s'agisse d'un peu de vagues naturelles ou de boucles restantes après avoir coiffé vos cheveux la veille. Commencez avec les cheveux humides et vaporisez-les généreusement avec notre spray texturant infusé à la propolis du milieu de la tige jusqu'aux pointes. Frottez maintenant les cheveux vers le haut avec vos mains pour former les vagues. Le résultat sera une vague de plage naturelle et sans effort. Boucles Glam sans chaleur avec rouleaux Velcro Si vous recherchez de grandes boucles volumineuses et glamour sans chaleur, n'hésitez pas et sortez vos grands rouleaux Velcro. Roulez les mèches de cheveux humides de la pointe jusqu'au cuir chevelu et fixez-les avec des pinces ou des épingles à cheveux. Laissez les rouleaux en place jusqu'à ce que vos cheveux soient complètement secs. Déroulez vos cheveux et passez vos doigts et quelques gouttes de notre huile capillaire infusée au miel pour séparer la boucle. Ajoutez un fixatif à tenue flexible pour plus de longévité. Les boucles sans chaleur de Negin N'oublions pas le hack de boucles sans chaleur préféré de Negin. Utilisez la base de polissage infusée de propolis pour préparer vos cheveux. Ensuite, appliquez le Heat Protecting Spray pour protéger des rayons UV et apporter texture et tenue. Enroulez vos cheveux autour de la ceinture de votre peignoir ( regardez la vidéo pour la technique exacte), laissez-le pendant quelques heures. Terminez avec 2-3 gouttes d'huile capillaire infusée au miel et voilà, les ondulations de plage parfaites ! Emballer Maintenant que vous avez huit façons différentes de boucler vos cheveux dans votre arsenal, vous n'aurez plus jamais l'impression d'être dans une ornière de coiffure. Rien de tel que de changer de coiffure pour booster votre confiance en vous. Magasinez nos essentiels de style

Are you stressed out dealing with dryness, itching and dead skin on your scalp? That's normal. Nobody wants to worry about things like that. Once dead skin starts to pile up on your scalp, it can make your hair less healthy and cause your scalp to be itchier than usual.  So, what causes this issue exactly? Dead skin cells can start to build up on your scalp. This can block hair follicles and lead to dandruff. Some people might even experience hair loss.  Thankfully, you can handle this in various ways. Using a new shampoo or introducing a scalp scrub are easy ways to change things up. Apple cider vinegar, honey, and aloe vera can also help. Spend time working on your scalp so you get to know it. Giving it some attention may be all you need to start removing dead skin cells. Once that’s done, you’re sure to enjoy healthy hair that you want to show off. How to Get Dead Skin Off Your Scalp Let's start at the beginning with how to remove dead skin from your scalp. Everyone has dealt with an itchy and flaky scalp at some point. The good news is that there are solutions. Everything from cleansing your scalp properly to using a brush with soft bristles or incorporating oils and honey-infused treatments into your process can make major differences. We'll be helping you wave goodbye to flakes while ensuring you have a happier scalp. Below are several methods that are sure to work. Proper Cleansing Techniques The first thing you can do is make sure you cleanse your scalp well. First, wet your hair using warm water. This helps loosen up any dead skin while making sure your head is ready for the other steps. You’ll then want to use a clarifying shampoo for scalp issues like buildup or dandruff. Massage this into your scalp with your fingers. Pay special attention to the spots where you often experience dead skin. Once that’s done, rinse with lukewarm water and make sure all the shampoo is gone. Try to stay away from hot water since this can remove oils from your scalp and lead to more irritation and dryness. You should cleanse the scalp regularly but not so often that it gets overly stripped. The Role of Moisture and Hydration Hydration is also crucial when it comes to keeping your scalp happy and preventing dead skin buildup. Just like other parts of the body, your scalp needs a certain amount of moisture to function well. If you have a dry scalp, it may be irritating or flaky. This makes it easier for dead skin cells to collect. Using moisturizing products as part of your hair routine helps balance the scalp. Consider shampoos and conditioners with items like natural oils, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid for the best results. Scalp oils and leave-in treatments are also useful (and we’ll talk about them soon). When your scalp is moisturized, it supports healthy skin cells and makes it less likely you need to worry about dead skin buildup. Use a Soft Bristle Brush Another way to handle dead skin on the scalp is with the help of a soft bristle brush. Make sure the bristles are general and flexible to prevent more irritation. This brush is least likely to damage your hair follicles. Before you shampoo your hair, use a brush to loosen up the dead skin cells and promote better circulation. This exfoliates and ensures the natural oils are spread  across the scalp and hair. While brushing, be gentle and pay attention to the amount of pressure you use. You don’t want to cause more irritation or discomfort. Adding this small step to your routine can improve the health of your scalp and prevent dead skin buildup at the same time. Oil Your Scalp Adding a bit of hair oil to your scalp can also nourish and moisturize while removing those dead skin cells you don’t want. The best oils are natural, such as jojoba or coconut, and are made with both antimicrobial and moisturizing properties. Use these before you wash your hair. Section the hair and add small amounts of oil to the scalp with a dropper or your fingertips. Next, massage it gently in circular motions to encourage it to be soaked up. It’s best to leave the oil for 30 minutes or longer. If you want deeper conditioning, you can leave it for the entire night. Regularly adding oil to the scalp softens things up and makes dead skin cells less likely.  Use a Honey-Infused Scalp Treatment Trying a honey-infused product can do wonders for your scalp, especially when you select Gisou Honey Infused Scalp Treatment. It’s made to promote scalp health while working to remove dead skin. Honey is anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, which makes it a great option for avoiding buildup and soothing any irritation you might have. This unique scalp serum is nourishing by virtue of honey and includes other extracts that help keep the scalp hydrated and rejuvenated. Just apply the scalp treatment as instructed, leave it on for 20 minutes up to overnight Optional: rinse and follow up with your normal scalp cleansing routine. If you use this product regularly, it helps balance the scalp microbiome, reduces the buildup of dead skin, and ensures your hair is healthy, soft, and revitalized. Give Yourself a Scalp Massage Giving yourself an occasional scalp massage is super relaxing and can help improve scalp health while removing dead skin. Use the pads of your fingers to massage the scalp circularly. It’s best to start at the front and then move toward the back. Use only small amounts of pressure and focus on the spots where dead skin tends to be the most prevalent. For many people, this includes the crown and the hairline. When you massage the head, it speeds up blood flow, which stimulates the hair follicles to grow faster and can promote the shedding of dead skin cells. On top of that, it feels great and can help you reduce tension. Try an Apple Cider Vinegar Rinse Apple cider vinegar (ACV) can also be a great option for removing dead skin that might be on your head. Take one part apple cider vinegar and three parts water. Combine and then use this on your scalp before you add the shampoo. Massage for a few minutes before rinsing, and then you can move on. So, why should you consider ACV? It balances the pH of your scalp while removing buildup and helping rid your scalp of dead skin cells. On top of that, it makes your scalp feel happier and healthier. This is a great option for those who want less flakiness and no irritation. Physical vs. Chemical Exfoliants for the Scalp When you want to exfoliate your scalp, you need to choose between chemical and physical exfoliants. A physical version is someone like a brush or a scrub. These are made to physically remove the dead skin cells using a bit of abrasion. They can cut down on the buildup but also irritate in some cases. Chemical exfoliants, on the other hand, are shampoos that contain things like alpha hydroxy acids or salicylic acid. They dissolve the bond between the skin cells so they are easier to remove. Most of the time, these are milder and can go deeper into your scalp. This makes them ideal for those with lots of buildup or sensitive skin. Is It Possible to Over-Exfoliate Your Scalp? You can over-exfoliate in some cases. Exfoliation is useful for scalp health and dead skin removal, but too much of it can cause dryness, irritation, or even damage.  Exfoliating too much can cause inflammation, excess oil production, and sensitivity. Use these products in moderation and pay attention to the way your scalp reacts. If you see dryness or irritation, stop using the products for a while. What Are the Benefits of Removing Dead Skin from Your Scalp? There are loads of benefits to removing dead skin from the scalp. It can prevent clogged hair follicles, which helps you avoid hair loss, itchiness, and dandruff. The promotion of a healthy scalp can also prevent additional oil production and product buildup. Removing dead skin also lets hair products more easily get into the scalp to help with hydration.  Final Thoughts on Removing Dead Skin from the Scalp Getting dead skin off the scalp is a must for anyone who wants to have healthy hair. Scalp massages, moisturizing products, and exfoliation are all options available to you for having a happier and cleaner scalp. Investing in products like Gisou’s Honey Infused Scalp Treatment can also give you a boost of hydration and nourishment in your daily routine. Keep in mind that a healthy scalp is also essential for good hair growth. You don’t want to forget how important hair maintenance is. When you treat your scalp well, you’ll enjoy soft hair that is free of flakes or itchiness.

Having a spa day at home wouldn’t be complete without using a nourishing hair mask to give you silky locks. But it’s not always clear just how often we should be using hair masks to replenish our strands from the inside out.  Our hair needs are unique, and in order to have glossy and lovely locks, we need to treat it that way. Whether you have straight, curly, dry, or oily hair, this is your ultimate guide to how often you should do a hair mask, based on your hair type. How Often Should I Use a Hair Mask?  In general, you should use a hair mask once or twice a week, depending on how much TLC you feel your hair needs. Even healthy hair can benefit from using a hair mask at least once a week. However, for hair that struggles with moisture retention and needs extra nutrient absorption, you will want to increase the frequency that you use a hair mask and for how long.  How Often Should You Use a Hair Mask for Your Hair Type? Considering your hair type individually is the best way to understand how often you should use a hair mask. Let’s also consider the state of your hair.  Straight Hair Contrary to popular belief, straight hair is great for growing strong and long. Straight hair is easier to comb through, leading to less breakage. However, because straight hair can often feel limp, many women use hot tools to add volume to their hair. This is what leads to dry and damaged hair.  In this scenario, the hair may be dryer and need more conditioning. It’s best to apply a hair mask twice a week. But women who have both dry and thin hair may have to adjust their routine to find the frequency that works best for them. Thin hair can become weighed down if you use a mask too often. Wavy Hair When it comes to wavy hair, there is some room for interpretation. Wavy hair tends to frizz out and can often be slightly drier. It is safe to say that using a hair mask twice a week will help smooth out any frizziness. However, adjusting your wavy hair routine is important based on whether your hair needs extra nourishment or feels weighed down.  Curly Hair Curly hair is the second-best scenario when it comes to hair health. However, curly hair is slightly more apt to frizz than straight or wavy hair. Like wavy hair, using a hair mask once a week overnight will suffice. Consider adding a drop or two of our Honey Infused Hair Oil for added benefits.  Our hair oil has strong reparative ingredients, like Mirsalehi honey. Honey is rich in amino acids, nutrients, and minerals that work to moisturize and repair damaged hair follicles. It’s also a natural humectant which makes it easier to lock in moisture. Adding a drop or two of our hair oil to your hair mask once a week provides an extra boost of nourishment and hydration.   Coily Hair Coily hair has hair cuticles that are more closed off than any other hair type. This is why applying the hair mask in the shower as the steam opens up the cuticle is the most effective. Coily hair can also benefit from adding a drop or two of our Honey Infused Hair Oil to their mask for extra moisture and nourishment.  Our hair oil adds a 19x reduction in frizz which is what coily hair struggles with the most. Manually massaging the hair mask will allow it to soak into each hair strand. Because coily hair needs more moisture, bumping up a hair mask treatment to three times a week is a good option.  Oily Hair Oily hair is one of the trickier hair types to work with because the hair is already weighed down from excess sebum production. Because our head has its own fragile microbiome, we must reset the deck. A hair mask can be useful once a week for oily hair, along with a nourishing scalp treatment. Gisou’s Scalp Treatment is great for restoring an oily scalp because it contains a prebiotic complex. It also contains Ectoin, which works to rebalance the scalp’s microbiome. When our scalp is dry, it overproduces sebum to correct, which can lead to excess oil. Applying a scalp treatment and massaging it into our scalp for five minutes is the perfect addition to a weekly hair mask for oily hair.  Dry, Damaged, or Chemically Processed Hair When it comes to dry, damaged, and chemically processed hair, this is the hair type that needs deep moisturizing the most. Following the same method as coily hair is the best protocol here. In addition to using a hair mask two or three times a week, depending on need, minimizing the use of hot tools is necessary. A deep restorative process with the right products will be beneficial.  Using a gentle cleansing and nourishing hair wash and conditioner is a good place to start. Gisou’s Honey-Infused Hair Wash and Conditioner contains many of the same hydrating properties thanks to the main ingredient, Mirsaheli honey. Remaining committed to quality ingredients like natural honey and argan oil will make significant improvements.  Frizzy or Unmanageable Hair Frizzy and unmanageable hair often coincides with wavy, coily, or curly hair. While using a hair mask one to two times a week is a great solution, you may also want to use a primer before styling. After nourishing your hair from the hair mask, use a lightweight primer like Gisou’s Propolis Infused Polishing Primer to help tame the frizz and flyaways.  Additional Factors to Consider When Deciding How Often to Use a Hair Mask There are a few more considerations regarding how often you should use a hair mask. Throughout the year, our hair changes, and that means our routine must change with it.  Hair Porosity Hair porosity refers to how easily your hair can absorb moisture. Porosity is usually determined by genetics but can be treated with the right products. When hair has low porosity, it means that the hair cuticles are tightly wound, and moisture has a hard time penetrating the outer layer. High porosity means that the hair cuticles are largely open, and moisture comes in as easily as it goes out.  This is why having medium hair porosity is the best for nutrient absorption. It allows for the ingredients to enter without necessarily being washed away just as quickly. Knowing your hair porosity will help you understand how often you need to use a hair mask.  Low-porosity hair should use a hair mask anytime the hair starts to feel on the drier side. Medium hair porosity can stick with a routine one to two times a week. High porosity hair may need to be deep conditioned several times a week because of the lack of moisture retention.  Hair Thickness Much like hair porosity, hair thickness changes how often you should deep condition your hair with a hair mask. Hair masks are slightly heavier products which is why thicker hair has an easier time absorbing and supporting it without getting weighed down.  The thinner your hair is, the more careful you have to be when adding in too much product. If you are still wondering how often to use a hair mask, pay attention to the results you have after each use.  Seasonal Changes Harsher weather means more environmental damage to our hair. Extreme sun, heat, and cold have the ability to dry out our hair, which means it needs more tenderness, love, and care. In milder climates, our hair remains relatively consistent. Monitoring what your hair is exposed to will help determine how often you should use a hair mask.  Trial and Error Sometimes, it takes a little trial and error with our hair to fully understand what it needs. Some weeks your hair may be drier than others, and it makes more sense to use a hair mask more often. Other weeks your hair will feel bouncy and hydrated and need less.  By adjusting your hair care routine according to its needs and using quality products such as Gisou’s Honey and Propolis Infused Hair Care, you are sure to restore your hair back to a healthy place.

It's time to indulge in the most luxurious shower of the week: the 'everything shower.' This is your ultimate opportunity to pamper yourself! Instead of viewing it as just another routine task, we’re helping you transform it into a moment of relaxation and rejuvenation. Elevate your 'everything shower' experience with a selection of our favorite Gisou products, designed to enhance your self-care ritual and leave you feeling refreshed and revitalized. What’s an ‘everything shower’? Embracing the latest TikTok trend, the 'everything shower' is your dedicated moment to take the time for every aspect of your shower routine. From cleansing your hair to exfoliating your skin, this comprehensive shower ritual is all about indulgence and self-care.  How to: ‘everything shower’ in 4 steps Step 1: The Ultimate Prep We believe that the first step of the ultimate ‘everything shower’ actually starts outside of the shower. Good preparation should never be underestimated! Treat your hair pre-shower to Negin’s signature deep treatment. Scoop a generous amount of our deeply hydrating Honey Infused Hair Mask in the palm of your hand and add a few drops of our nourishing Honey Infused Hair Oil to the Hair Mask. This will give your hair even more nourishment and the extra love it deserves.    View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Let the Hair Mask soak for as long as you want (try one hour up to overnight) while you set the scene in your bathroom. We recommend dimming overhead lights and lighting a candle, like our Honey Scented Candle. This makes your ‘everything shower’ extra cosy! Step 2: Wash Away Next, it’s time to step into the shower and wash your hair. Using our Honey Infused Hair Wash, apply two 2 dime-sized amounts in the palm of your hand, add a small amount of water and work the Hair Wash into a fine lather. Really take your time as you work the product into your scalp for a minute or two before rinsing it out. Since this is not your average shower, we recommend washing your hair twice to get rid of any leftover build-up and grease. Give that scalp the attention it deserves! After all, healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp. Unlike many other shampoos on the market, we’re proud that our Honey Infused Hair Wash is gentle yet effective, as it does not contain any sulphates, silicones or parabens. Not to mention that it is infused with our own Mirsalehi honey which contains nourishing vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. This ingredient provides an extra dose of hydration that’s perfect for dry or damaged hair.  Step 3: Bring Back The Moisture As the last hair care step in the shower, apply a generous amount of our Honey Infused Conditioner to the lengths of your hair. Even if you’ve used a pre-wash hair mask, it’s  important to use a conditioner to sea the hair cuticles, to prevent frizz. Since the Hair Wash and warm water open up the hair cuticles to clean your hair, applying Conditioner helps to close these again.  Allow the Conditioner to absorb anywhere from 2 up to 5 minutes before rinsing it out. While you’re waiting, use this time to scrub, shave (if you choose to do so) and lather yourself up with your favourite shower gel.    View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Step 4: Get That Glow Now that you have taken care of your hair and have stepped out of the shower, we cannot forget to take care of your body. Luckily, our Honey Infused Body Oil has you covered! Warm a few drops of this rich, nourishing oil in the palms of your hand before applying it all over your body. Our secret? Apply the Body Oil to damp skin to allow the oil formulation to absorb more easily and deeply. This truly locks in the moisture and will help you to feel the smoothest you’ve ever been! Wrapping Up Whenever you choose to have your ‘everything shower’ during the week, this routine will definitely leave you feeling refreshed and glowing for days. Let’s see the ‘everything shower’ for what it really is: a loving act of self care!

Hair shedding is completely natural, and everyone experiences it to some degree. But, sometimes, hair shedding becomes excessive, and that can be concerning. The good news is, not all hair shedding is inevitable. Sometimes it’s related to our lifestyle or hair care routine, and there are practical steps we can take to slow it down. Read on for our top tips to stop hair shedding and the education behind why each step matters!  How to Stop Hair from Shedding Let’s break down ten practical steps you can take to stop hair from shedding. 1. Analyze Your Cleansing Routine Many hair issues or bad hair days often come back to our cleansing routine. Cleansing too much or too little can lead to hair fall. This is because over-cleansing strips the natural oils from our scalp. This can lead to a dry, itchy, and flaky scalp that also lets the hair follicle go. On the other hand, the buildup can clog your scalp and prevent your hair from getting the nutrients it needs.  It’s worth looking for a cleansing yet nourishing product combo like Gisou’s Infused Honey Hair Wash and Conditioner. The important ingredient to remember in this combo is the moisturizing Mirsalehi Honey. After cleansing your scalp, it’s important to replenish moisture, and that’s exactly what honey does. It nourishes from the inside out, so you can count on reducing breakage and hair fall.  Another tip to consider is not necessarily how much or little you are cleansing but what you are cleansing with. Product selection is incredibly important. That’s why, in this blog, we give many examples of products you can use to enhance your routine by breaking down the ingredients.  2. Incorporate Keratin Into Your Routine If there is one ingredient we can’t recommend enough, it’s keratin. But, we’re not talking about the damaging straightening treatments that contain harsh chemicals. We’re talking about plant-based Keratin, such as the one you’ll find in Gisou’s Hair Repair Serum.  It contains powerhouse ingredients like Keramatch V and Keraguard, which penetrate deep into the hair follicle to strengthen damaged hair. It improves elasticity and reduces the breakage that occurs from harsh chemical treatments and heat styling. 3. Try a Scalp Treatment Our scalp microbiome plays an important role in hair growth and health. When it’s out of balance, our hair follicles become clogged and unhealthy. A scalp treatment can successfully rebalance the scalp microbiome, nourish the skin and hair follicles, and help regulate sebum production. A healthier scalp means less hair fall! In addition to Mirsalehi Honey, Gisou’s Honey Infused Scalp Treatment contains ectoin, which helps reduce dryness or flaking. It also has a Botanical Complex, which includes a number of powerful antioxidants to help reduce inflammation and strengthen the skin barrier.  4. Use a Hair Mask Regularly Along with a scalp treatment to reset the deck, anyone who experiences more hair fall than usual should consider using a hair mask regularly. This is mainly due to the fact that hair masks allow for longer absorption of necessary nutrients for restoration.  To get the maximum benefit from a hair mask such as Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair mask, apply it before bed and leave it on overnight. This will allow the Baobab extract to work its magic and restore dry and brittle hair to a moisturized state. You’ll know it’s working when your hair is soft and bouncy.  5. Prioritize a Healthy Diet and Lifestyle While using the right products is incredibly important, focusing on a healthy diet and lifestyle can significantly reduce hair fall. Consuming healthy fats such as Omega 3’s through nuts and fish can help increase hair thickness and reduce inflammation. This is a great answer to the question, “how to stop my hair from shedding,” because it also benefits overall health.  6. Manage Your Stress Managing our cortisol levels directly correlates to sebum production and hair fall. Cortisol is our stress hormone. Unfortunately, hair fall is a common effect when our cortisol levels are too high. By managing our stress effectively through relaxation techniques as well as a healthy diet and lifestyle, we can prevent excess oil and hair fall.  If exercising feels like a chore, there are lots of other ways to manage stress. Consider a spa day, going for a walk with a friend, or making time for your favorite hobbies.  7. Avoid Tight Hairstyles Hormones and poor products aren’t the only ones to blame when we experience hair shedding. Wearing tight braids, buns, and ponytails can tug on our hair at the base. A good way to tell if you are wearing a style that is too tight is by checking out your hair tie when taking it out. Does it have hair around it?  When taking out the style, you can also tell the style is too tight if your scalp feels stiff or achy. Opt for looser updos that leave room for some flexibility. Low ponies are another great option.  8. Detangle from the Bottom Up Have you ever tried to brush through your hair straight out of the shower from the top down? If so, you will notice that you create a more knotted tangle as you continue to brush. Starting from the bottom and working your way up is a softer way of detangling your hair.  You should also use a multi-tasking detangler that helps with the knots and provides some relief. Gisou’s Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner is a great option. It blends some of the powerful ingredients from other products, such as Baobab extract, with Argan Oil and Mirsalehi Honey to leave our hair moisturized and nourished.  It’s also a great option for between washes when our hair gets naturally tangled and dry.  9. Minimize Heat Styling Heat styling is one of the root causes of dry and damaged hair. The drier our hair is, the more it’s prone to breakage. This can also lead to hair shedding as the strand or hair follicle has accelerated its aging due to heat. Opting for heatless hairstyles can be a great solution for this issue. But, understandably, heat is optimal for achieving certain styles. When you do need to use heat, be sure to use a heat protectant. Keep in mind not all heat sprays hold the same weight. For instance, Gisou’s Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray protects against heat damage up to 230ᵒC/446ᵒF. It also protects against UV rays, which can dry out our hair just as easily.  10. Treat Wet Hair Carefully When our hair is wet, it is more susceptible to breakage. There are a few tips and tricks to help eliminate unnecessary roughness and damage.  Always opt to use a soft microfiber towel rather than a terry cloth. Terry cloth and materials similar to it can be abrasive when drying your hair. A wet brush or a wide-tooth comb can help detangle hair softly. Combining these tools with a detangler or leave-in conditioner helps dramatically reduce breakage.  As mentioned above, air drying and avoiding heat can also be incredibly impactful when reducing hair fall. Even using a cooler setting during colder months when drying your hair can help.  The Hair Growth Cycle As we mentioned, hair shedding is natural. Our hair goes through different stages during its growth cycle. These cycles can be accelerated when you have too much stress or use too much heat. Understanding the phases helps us understand what is causing the hair fall in the first place.  The Anagen or Hair Growth Phase This Anagen phase is the hair growth phase and is commonly referred to as the season of spring. This is where a lot of new cell generation is occurring.  Because our hair follicles are in overdrive and producing long, beautiful strands of hair, this phase can last anywhere between two and seven years. This is the main reason why hair on our scalp is longer than any other part of our body.  The Catagen or Transition Phase  The phase between new hair growth and what we call resting hair is called the Catagen phase. This is where our hair follicles shrink and detach from the blood supply. This phase doesn’t last long as it’s only two to three weeks, making it the transition phase. Consider it the summer months before fall, and things start to cool off.  The Telogen or Resting Phase In the telogen phase, our hair is no longer attached to our blood supply and simply rests on our head. This is our fall season. It’s not quite cold enough yet to hibernate, but it’s not producing any new hair growth. This is the Telogen phase and can last about three months.  The Exogen or Shedding Phase  Lastly, the Exogen or shedding phase is our winter months. This is where all of our old hair sheds and makes room for new hair growth. Because all hair is in its own phase and is not synchronized, there is always new hair entering the anagen phase while hair is shedding in its exogen phase.  So, How Much Hair Shedding Is Normal? Because hair shedding is a natural part of our hair cycle, we can count on losing some hair now and then. Experts say 50 to 100 strands a day is considered normal. Of course, everyone is different, and the amount of hair you shed normally can vary based on things like the thickness of your hair, your hair type, or the season. Potential Causes of Excessive Hair Shedding There are a few more factors that are worth noting when it comes to excessive hair shedding. By reducing some of these factors, we can count on a more natural amount of hair shedding.  Chemical Processing Chemical processing may be one of the quickest ways to accelerate hair cycles. The harsh chemicals reduce or eliminate the nutrients the hair gets by essentially poisoning the well. The more often we chemically process our hair from bleach dyes or straightening treatments, the more we break down our natural hair structure and barrier. This can lead to breakage and extreme hair damage.  Post-Pregnancy Post-pregnancy hair fall is a common Google search. We see this happen because when pregnant women see hormonal changes as they need to supply enough vitamins to the baby. Biotin and prenatal supplements can increase our hormone levels and hair growth.  After having the baby, it’s common for our hormones to rebalance again. This can result in dramatic hair shedding and a rapid decrease in hormones. Continuing to take vitamins and Biotin can help reduce this effect.  Aging Hair shedding is a common battle for both men and women as we age. This is because, naturally, our bodies require more vitamins while simultaneously having a harder time getting them. Being diligent about our healthy lifestyle and stress management can help with hair shedding and aging.  Nutritional Deficiencies Regardless of age, having a nutritional deficiency can lead to hair fall, just like it can lead to broken bones. Fueling the nutritional gap that we don’t get from our daily food intake is important through proper supplementation.   Underlying Health Conditions While not the most common cause, underlying health conditions can lead to hair fall. This could be due to medications issued with health conditions or a result of the condition itself.  Understanding Hair Shedding vs Hair Loss Hair shedding and hair loss are often used interchangeably but are not the same. Natural hair shedding is replaced by new hair growth and does not result in thinner hair. But hair loss occurs when new incoming hair can’t replace hair fall quickly enough to supplement the shedding, resulting in thinner hair and the potential for bald spots over time.  When to See Your Doctor About Excessive Hair Shedding Is your hair shedding too much? It’s never a bad idea to consult with a doctor if you are worried about losing too much hair. When hair shedding doesn’t appear to be slowing down after applying the above tips, it is a good time to check in with a doctor. They will do a check-up to ensure no underlying conditions are present.  Start With What You Can Control Starting with what you can control, such as product choice, a healthy lifestyle, and diet, is important. These simple steps can reduce the rate of shedding and improve the health of your hair and scalp overall.  Checking out Gisou’s Honey and Propolis Infused Hair Care is a great place to start because you want to invest in high-quality, multitasking products. Our ingredients are natural and effective, and can be cross-referenced in many products. You’ll find yourself checking multiple things off your list at once when choosing Gisou’s honey and propolis-infused hair care! 

Ladies, let’s be real. We all crave luscious, healthy hair, but sometimes, you have to use heat tools to get the look you want. Unfortunately, excessive heat styling can leave your lovely locks looking a little lackluster and, dare we say it, damaged. Whether you’re using a hairdryer to get out the door fast or wielding hot tools for daily styling, there’s a potential for heat damage. But, don’t panic yet! There is good news! With the right care and attention, you can rejuvenate your stressed hair and breathe life back into lackluster strands. Let’s chat about ten effective tips to repair heat-damaged hair fast. How to Repair Heat-Damaged Hair Fast Ever looked in the mirror and felt like your hair looked more like a dried-out tumbleweed than the shiny, lustrous locks you envisioned? We’ve all been there, and it’s no fun! Waking up with tangled hair that lacks shine and bounce is the ultimate bummer. However, getting your hair back to its glossy glory quickly is possible. Here’s how.  1. Choose the Right Shampoo and Conditioner Let’s start at the beginning. The hair repair journey can actually be quite soothing. Start with the right shampoo and conditioner that is specifically designed for hair repair. That means focusing on quality ingredients that cleanse, hydrate, and nourish without stripping away essential moisture. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Wash is a great example because it’s infused with Mirsalehi Honey for nourishment and argan oil for shine. Follow up with Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Conditioner. It contains coconut oil, shea butter, and sweet almond oil to nourish the hair from the inside out. Focusing on a quality shampoo and conditioner is arguably the most important step. It’s like trying to put together furniture without reading the instructions. Don’t set yourself up for disaster.  2. Drench Your Strands in Moisture When our hair lacks elasticity and shine, it’s screaming for hydration. Drenching your hair in moisture is key, not only for repairing existing damage but also for preventing future issues. Consider using hair oil in your routine. This will allow for a lightweight solution that boosts shine immediately and smooths out any frizz that occurs after a tousled night's sleep.  An option like Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Oil is the perfect choice because it contains all the powerhouse ingredients while being a 24/7 option. You can wear it overnight in combination with a hair mask or use it as the last step in your styling routine to boost hydration and shine and seal split ends.  3. Prioritize Overnight Hair Masks One of the best ways to nourish and repair your hair is to use an overnight hair mask. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Mask is an intensely hydrating treatment that enhances elasticity and shine while also improving overall health and resiliency. It contains top-notch ingredients like the ones listed above, as well as monoi of Tahiti to restore moisture and eliminate frizz. Baobab extract is also included for extra hydration and to protect the hair from future damage. Our hair mask can be used in a variety of ways. Try applying it right before bed and leaving it on overnight. This will allow the hair mask to absorb and soak for a longer period of time. Upon waking up, rinse it out and follow with our Honey-Infused Hair Wash and Conditioner to seal the cuticle. You can also use it in the shower for a quick fix by leaving it on for 5-7 minutes. For those with super-damaged hair, add a few drops of Honey-Infused Hair Oil to maximize the benefits. 4. Incorporate a Repairing Serum Hair repair serum is a champion at bringing damaged hair back to life. Gisou’s Hair Repair Serum is a 96% natural option that is also clinically proven to provide results. Enriched with plant-based keratin, our hair repair serum seals split ends, improves elasticity, and strengthens the hair to prevent future breakage.  5. Style with Nourishing Oils We’ve already mentioned  our Honey-Infused Hair Oil, but there are other ways to incorporate nourishing oils into your styling routine. Gisou’s Propolis Infused Polishing Primer serves as a multi-purpose hair product. It contains propolis for strengthening and repair, as well as natural oils, vitamins, minerals, and flavonoids to improve hair health and prevent split ends and breakage Apply throughout your towel dried hair prior to air drying or blow drying to add more volume and light hold, while also nourishing your hair from previous heat damage. As an added bonus, it reduces drying time to minimize heat exposure during blow drying. 6. Opt for Heat-Free, Low-Tension Hairstyles. One of the best alternatives for protecting your hair is giving it a breather from the thing that’s causing damage. Embracing a low or heat-free routine will allow your hair to grow back without the stress.  Another area that can be and should be embraced is avoiding high-stress hairstyles. This includes high ponytails and tight braids. Low-tension hairstyles and embracing your natural state will allow for optimal growth and restoration.  7. Use a Cool-Mist Humidifier Environmental factors are definitely something to consider when it concerns the dryness of your hair. While heat damage is one factor, dry air can limit your restoration progress. Using a cool-mist humidifier will provide moisture in the air. This is especially true in colder climates where the air is naturally drier.  8. Detangle with Care When our hair is damaged from heat, it’s naturally weaker and brittle. It also tangles and can break off very easily when combed aggressively. Using Gisou’s Honey-Infused Leave-In Conditioner before detangling will help you remove tangles much more easily and without causing additional damage. A wide-toothed comb or detangling brush will also help get through wet hair without causing breakage. When your hair is wet, it is much more fragile and susceptible to breakage. Always start from the ends of your hair and make your way up to the roots.  This process may take more time, but it’s worth the extra effort.  9. Protect from Future Damage Heat protectant is an absolute must for preventing future damage anytime you use a blow dryer or hot tools.  Our Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray not only protects from heat damage up to 230C/446F,  but it also acts as a shield against UV rays. It’s your secret weapon against frizz and breakage, with nourishing ingredients to strengthen the hair.  10. Embrace Regular Trims Having heat-damaged hair is certainly a bummer. But with the right steps, the new hair that grows in will be strong and healthy. Getting regular trims to get the dead ends off is important. This will prevent future breakage from continuing to split higher up the strand.  The Telltale Signs of Heat-Damaged Hair It’s great to know how to repair heat-damaged hair. But if we can’t recognize the stress signals, we will never get around to giving our locks the helping hand they need. Split ends, breakage, and frizziness are all clear signs. However, to get a better hold on the situation, pay attention to your hair in the morning.  The more tangled and coarse your hair is upon waking up, the more likely it is that you are dealing with hair that’s suffering from heat damage. When you start to feel like nothing is moisturizing your hair, it’s time to go heavy-duty with hydration and repair.  How Heat Affects Hair Structure When our hair is exposed to extreme heat, the keratin in our hair strands is affected. There are multiple types of Keratin with different degrees of strength. With temperatures reaching over 300F, the keratin type changes to a weaker model. This is what causes the hair to become dry and brittle.  Can Heat-Damaged Hair Be Fully Repaired? Heat-damaged hair may never come back to its original state 100%, but with the tips and tricks listed above, you can improve its overall shine and elasticity. Most importantly, with regular trims, the newly growing hair will come in stronger than ever. This will make it more resistant to any future heat exposure. That’s why even if you don’t have heat-damaged hair, it’s still important to moisturize.  Immediate Benefits + Lasting Results Congratulations!

And that’s where our Honey and Propolis Infused Haircare really shines.

There are many reasons why we might see a few extra strands fall out as we brush our hair. And keeping every hair on our head is the key to fuller, thicker-feeling hair. While stress and harmful hair products can certainly be connected, most of us don’t realize that air pollution is also a contributing factor.  But how does one protect your hair from air pollution? By using good hair products, washing well, and a variety of other methods. Let’s talk about them! 8 Ways to Protect Your Hair from Dust and Air Pollution Air particles like dust and pollution can leave your hair looking dull and greasy, but the problems don’t end there. These particles can also permeate into our hair and lead to breakage and blocked hair roots.  Each and every tip listed below is worth working into your hair care routine. It can make all the difference in healthy hair that grows strong while being protected from air pollution.  Apply Hair Serum Post Wash After giving your hair a good wash, applying a quality hair serum can do wonders for your hair. While air pollution can cause split ends, build-up, and frizz, hair serum works to repair hair and manage this. Gisou’s Hair Repair Serum works particularly well because of honey-infused ingredients.  With proteins, botanical oils, and essential minerals, this hair serum repairs hair by moisturizing the hair from the inside out. Dryness is often a direct result of air pollution permeating our lovely locks.  Choose Antioxidant-Rich Hair Products Antioxidants are an essential part of combating environmental factors such as air pollution and dust. Antioxidants work to promote healthy circulation and new hair growth. With good hair follicle circulation, hair will continue to grow strong, getting off to a healthy start.  Honey is a powerful antioxidant. Furthermore, it’s also a humectant. This makes for a power combination. Humectants help lock in moisture because of the way they lock onto water molecules. It also locks into the vitamins and antioxidants to create long-lasting benefits.  Keraguard is one of the key antioxidants found in our honey-infused hair products, which also helps protect against UV rays and heat damage.  Cover Your Hair with a Scarf or Hat Luckily for us, hair scarves and hats are back in fashion. Not only can they keep us warm during cooler months, but wrapping our hair keeps pollution out. A silk scarf is one of the best materials to work with because it’s the softest on our hair. Sometimes, rougher materials can cause frizzing and even breakage.  If you’re looking to really step up your hair care routine, put a leave-in conditioner or hair serum in your hair and let it soak underneath your scarf or hat. No one will ever know, and you intensely hydrate while protecting your hair.  Use Leave-In Conditioner Between Wash Days Gisou's Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner is the ultimate multi-tasker. Our hair can become easily dehydrated thanks to environmental factors. Keeping it nourished and moisturized is key to healthy and happy hair. Leave-in conditioner also creates a coated barrier that keeps harmful toxins out and nourishing ingredients in. Leave-in conditioner is a great multi-tasker. Our hair can become easily dehydrated due to many different factors. Environmental factors such as extreme heat or cold are certainly to blame.   Being able to provide extra moisture is key to healthy and happy hair. Not only can a good leave-in conditioner provide extra hydration, but it can create a barrier between environmental factors and our hair. It creates a shell-like barrier around the strands that helps keep moisture and nutrients in and harmful toxins out.  Use Sulfate-Free Shampoo and Hydrating Conditioner Regularly Since debris does cause our hair to look ragged and gross, it’s important that we wash it regularly. But washing our hair with products that don’t get the job done right can be even more damaging. A sulfate-free shampoo will work to remove any build-up hanging around without completely drying your natural oils.  Drying out hair and scalp can result in flakiness, dandruff, and even excess oil production. Topping off a good wash with the right conditioner is the perfect combination. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Wash and Conditioner works to moisturize naturally, leaving our hair feeling weightless but not frizzy.  Extra tip: Leave the conditioner in your hair for one to two minutes before rinsing to allow honey and other important ingredients to soak in. Deep Condition Once or Twice a Week A deep condition means using a quality hair mask that you can leave on the hair overnight or for an extended period of time. This allows for nutrients to seep in and repair the hair from any past damage that occurred. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Mask will not only leave you with improved hair elasticity, but it adds shine and luster. Debris and dirt caused by outside pollution often absorb our natural oils in a bad way. It leaves our hair looking weighted and dull. A quality hair mask prevents this from happening altogether.  Wear Protective Hairstyles It’s often overlooked, but the way we wear our hair can also provide a layer of protection against environmental pollution. By combing the hair into buns, ponytails, or braids, we shield the inner part of your hair from exposure to the air. Just be sure to use the right elastics and hair ties to avoid breakage.  When our hair is secured in a protective hairstyle, it also creates a barrier to the scalp. A dry scalp leads to irritation and potential hair fall, so it’s important to shield it as much as possible. Covering your hair with a hat or scarf when you’re outdoors is also a great option. Detoxify Your Hair and Scalp Our scalp is where our new hair grows, which is why paying attention to it is so important. Without the right environment, new hair growth can be stunted and leave us off to a rocky start. Aside from using the right shampoo and conditioner, we should massage our products on our scalp with our hands. This creates blood flow and circulation for new hair growth.  You can also use a purifying scalp treatment like Gisou’s Honey-Infused Scalp treatment. This product uses Mirsaheli honey to help with thinning hair and alleviate dry, itchy, and oily scalp conditions. This is thanks to ingredients that balance our scalp microbiome and get rid of harmful bacteria.  By replenishing and protecting our skin barrier, a scalp treatment really focuses from the inside out. Scalp treatments are best left overnight, such as a hair mask.  How Dust and Air Pollution Damage Your Hair While we now know what to do to combat air pollution, it’s worth knowing the reason behind it. Let’s quickly delve into just how damaging air pollution and dust can be for our locks.  Signs of Pollution Damaged Hair If you start to notice any of the following symptoms, chances are air pollution is getting to you.  Increased Hair Fall While there can be many reasons for increased hair fall, air pollution is usually one that gets forgotten about. When pollution permeates our hair, especially at the roots, it kills the area in which it can grow. Dry scalps don’t provide healthy grips from the hair follicle, resulting in complete loss of hair.  Dry and Brittle Hair It also can penetrate the hair strand itself, leading to breakage in the middle of our hair. What is expected is to see a lot of split ends because the longer the hair has been exposed to such conditioners, the weaker and more brittle it will become.  Itchy Scalp and Dandruff Air pollution and dust dry up our scalp’s natural moisture, which can lead to a dry and itchy scalp. This, in turn, is how dandruff is created.  Dullness and Color Fading Because our natural moisture is soaked up, it leaves us with a dull look rather than a lustrous shine. This can take away from our natural highlights and even fade colored hair.  Frizz and Flyaways Flyaways often are a result of the combination of dry hair and breakage. This frizzy look can be difficult to tame when our hair is improperly moisturized.  Investing In The Right Products When it comes to protecting our hair from air pollution, it really comes down to investing in the right products both from a coverage standpoint and from a repair stance. Ingredients that have antibacterial properties, vitamins, and minerals that promote both protection and restoration are key.  That’s why Gisou’s Hair Care products may be the perfect place to start looking. All of these products are multifunctional thanks to the main powerhouse ingredient, honey. Don’t wait to start protecting your hair with them. 

Hailey Bieber may just be the reason why slicked-back buns are in style. However, it’s a timeless look that is classy and thankfully easy to do. But it may not feel easy the first time you try it. That’s because, often, ladies resort to just pulling their hair back tightly. But this isn’t the way! In fact, this method can damage your hair. That’s why we have created a step-by-step guide on how to do it and what products to use. Let’s get started.   How To Do a Slick Back Bun Step-By-Step When going for a sleek bun, it’s important to have a routine. The base for the look remains the same, while your bun can have some variation. Styling it is the fun part!  Gather Your Tools and Supplies Simply pulling out hair back won’t create the smooth look we’re after. That’s why gathering the necessary tools is key. Consider this your checklist.  Forgiving hair ties or hair scrunchies will make it easy to tame one part of your hair while you work on other sections. Rough hairstyles can lead to hair fall, so choosing the right material is important.   Bobby pins will be helpful for anyone who has layers, breakage, or flyaways. Not all of our hair will behave and fit into the hair tie.  A fine-comb or hair brush that will help you pull all the hair strands back into a smooth bun. When you use wide-tooth combs for this, it can leave bumps or missed hair.  Products that will help hold your hair back once it’s perfectly in place. A primer and a hair oil are the perfect duo. You may be thinking, “Well, what about hair spray?” Not necessary! We will get to that.  When it comes to the slicked-back bun, less is more. It’s the perfect opportunity for those who want to hide a little grease in between wash days because it has that sleek look. But too much product or roughing around will lead to a wet, grungy look.  Section Your Hair After you have gathered your tools and supplies, it’s important to start by sectioning your hair appropriately. This will allow you to prep it and put hair product in evenly to avoid any clumpy parts.  The best way to section your hair is to take your brush and start at the roots, gathering hair that sits above your ears. This is the top half. Throw it into a loose bun on the top of your head so you expose much of your underhair.  Apply Product Start applying a primer from the mid-lengths of your hair to the ends. Once you’re done with that section, section this bit of hair with a clip and do the same process with the top half of your hair. Using too much primer can end up leaving your hair weighed down.  When you use Gisou’s Hair Primer, you can count on a frizzless look and a lightweight feel. It also helps that when you are coming fresh out of the shower, it reduces your drying time, making it easy to avoid hot tools.  While hair oil is also an important part of the process, we can save this product for the finishing touches.  Part Your Hair Even though we are working with a slicked-back look, it’s still important to part your hair for the framing. A straight down the middle part is going to create the symmetry that makes the slicked-back bun look so elegant in the first place. To part, simply take your comb or fingers and section your hair straight down the middle.  Brush Your Hair Back After parting, brush your hair back, keeping the middle part slightly distinguishable. Your hair should be smoothed back as if you were going to create a low ponytail. If you find that your hair is not staying put, it’s worth adding a little extra primer to smooth it down. It may take a few brushes to create that smooth, sleek look.  Twist Into a Bun and Secure Once your hair is sitting smooth on top of your head, grab all of it into a low ponytail and twirl the hair. You can wrap it around in circles to create a tight bun and secure it with a scrunchy, non-abrasive hair tie or a large clip.   Tame Flyaways and Set Your Style Naturally, you will notice that you have flyaways and hair that doesn’t want to stay in the bun. This usually happens around the crown of the head. This is where good oil comes in. Gisou’s Honey-Infused Hair Oil is the perfect weightless option that will keep flyaways at bay.  You only need a small drop, which you can warm up between your palms. Then, with your hands, smooth back your hair, letting the oil pat down the whipsies. This is also going to add a luster and shine to your hair that makes it the absolute perfect finishing touch.    View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Slick-Back Bun Variations There are quite a few variations of how to tie your hair together in a bun. Consider these options to switch it up.  High Slick Back Bun While we talked about a low slick back bun above, there is nothing stopping you from creating a high slick back bun. This is for our girls that love to wear the high pony. Just be careful with tugging and pulling because this can create some breakage. This is a great option for those who have layers or shorter hair, so it can all fit into the bun.    View this post on Instagram A post shared by MATILDA DJERF (@matildadjerf)   Low Slick Back Bun A low, slick back bun is easy to maintain and is generally less abrasive on the hair. For those with longer hair, it’s easier to pull off because all lengths will reach it. Some women like to actually tie the hair into a low pony first and then wrap the hair around it to hold it in place better.  This is because, with a low bun, it may be more apt to come “undone” as it brushes against your shoulders.  Slick Back Bun with a Braided Twist If you are feeling extra fancy, then a braided twist is a beautiful addition to a slicked-back bun. Pulling your hair into a low ponytail is the easiest way to do this. Simply braid the hair as normal and tie it off with a small elastic hair band to hold it into place.  Then, wrap the braid around each other into a small circular bun and secure it with a knot. This will give you the braided twist Princess Leia look we all love.  Taking Your Time While it is quite a classy and simple look, it’s important not to rush the process. When we rush, it can leave us with a messy-looking bun rather than a slicked-back one. Using Gisou’s Final Touch Set is what will really help secure the desired sleek look. But knowing when to use what is important.  It may take a few trial runs to understand how much product to use and how to section the hair. But once you have it pat down, it’s an easy look with minimal effort that looks great on everyone. 

Nous adorons l'hiver pour les couvertures moelleuses et les vêtements confortables, mais nous éviterons la peau sèche et terne, les lèvres gercées et les cuticules craquelées - merci ! Une faible humidité, des températures encore plus basses et le chauffage intérieur fonctionnent ensemble pour extraire l'humidité de votre peau, la laissant terne et sèche. Pourquoi vous devez changer votre routine de soins de la peau pour l'hiver Cela signifie qu'il est particulièrement important d'améliorer notre jeu de soins de la peau pendant ces mois pour garder votre teint sain et éclatant. Il n'est pas nécessaire de revoir totalement votre régime de soins de la peau. Ajoutez simplement quelques-unes de nos recommandations infusées au miel pour vous garder rayonnant jusqu'au printemps ! Lorsque l'humidité est faible, votre peau perdra beaucoup d'humidité dans l'environnement. La prévention de la peau sèche nécessite à la fois des humectants et des émollients pour attirer l'humidité et la retenir (dans cet ordre). Nous vous recommandons de remplacer vos hydratants plus légers par des formules plus riches, d'exfolier moins souvent et d'utiliser un nettoyant apaisant comme premières étapes de base de votre routine de soins de la peau en hiver. Conseils de soins de la peau pour l'hiver Votre visage a une peau plus fine et plus sensible que le reste de votre corps. Il est également le plus exposé pendant la période hivernale, ce qui nécessite de le protéger. Voici quelques-uns de nos meilleurs conseils de soins de la peau en hiver : Étape 1 : Nettoyer Commencez votre routine avec un nettoyage en douceur. Pendant l'hiver, il est important de s'assurer qu'aucun de vos produits n'assèche votre peau (y compris votre nettoyant). Optez pour un nettoyant sans sulfate et sans phtalate, car ils enlèvent souvent à la peau ses huiles naturelles régénératrices. Essayez d'utiliser une crème ou un lait maternisé si vous avez la peau particulièrement sèche et assurez-vous d'utiliser de l'eau tiède (pas chaude !) lorsque vous vous lavez le visage - l'eau chaude irritera et dessèchera encore plus votre peau. Étape 2 : Sérum Utilisez d'abord votre produit le plus léger, comme un sérum. Cela permettra à la peau d'absorber le produit et de s'assurer qu'aucun autre produit ne bloque sa pénétration. Optez pour un sérum hydratant pour attirer l'humidité dans les couches profondes de votre peau (comme l'acide hyaluronique). Les sérums sont des produits de soin légers qui contiennent une concentration plus élevée d'ingrédients actifs (tels que l'acide hyaluronique, l'acide glycolique et la vitamine C), par rapport aux hydratants classiques. Ils peuvent aider à éclaircir, hydrater et offrir une variété d'avantages, selon les types de sérum que vous utilisez. Étape 3 : Crème hydratante Faites suivre votre sérum de votre crème pour le visage (hydratant). Les hydratants ont une formule plus épaisse pour créer une barrière physique qui emprisonne l'hydratation et empêche la peau de se dessécher. De plus, ils aident la couche supérieure de la peau, l'aidant à retenir l'humidité. Étape 4 : Huile pour le visage Et maintenant place à la magie - enfermez le tout avec l' huile pour le visage infusée au miel . L'hiver est le moment idéal pour ajouter des huiles à votre routine, que votre peau soit grasse ou sèche. L'huile pour le visage infusée au miel aidera à apaiser votre peau, à emprisonner l'hydratation et à renforcer la barrière cutanée pour aider à prévenir la perte d'humidité. Vous pouvez soit le mélanger à votre crème hydratante (matin et soir), soit l'utiliser comme dernière étape d'un rituel hivernal gourmand. Cette huile pour le visage quotidienne riche en antioxydants et à absorption rapide est formulée pour nourrir la peau avec les bienfaits transformateurs du miel de Mirsalehi, des actifs naturels et des huiles botaniques fraîchement pressées à froid du Mirsalehi Bee Garden. Assurez-vous d'appliquer l'huile jusqu'au cou et au décolleté ! Extra : Routine Gua Sha avec huile pour le visage Si vous avez le temps de vous faire dorloter, utilisez votre Gua Sha pour aider à diminuer la tension, à réduire les poches et à donner à la peau un aspect rose. Appliquez 3 à 4 gouttes d'huile pour le visage infusée au miel en vous concentrant sur les zones où vous avez l'intention d'utiliser le Gua Sha ; il est important d'utiliser généreusement l'huile pour le visage, de donner suffisamment de glissement à l'outil et d'éviter de tirer ou de tirer sur la peau. Nous vous recommandons de trouver une carte du visage Gua Sha qui montre comment diriger les traits lorsque vous travaillez correctement sur différentes zones du visage. En général, vous pouvez commencer par appuyer légèrement la pierre sur votre mâchoire et la faire glisser doucement vers le haut et vers la racine des cheveux. Tenez l'outil ou la pierre à plat et connecté à la peau avec une pression légère à moyenne. Étape 5 : FPS S'il s'agit de votre routine de soins de la peau du matin, il est important de suivre votre SPF pour vous protéger des rayons UVA et UVB. Ceci est également important en hiver - le soleil peut encore être nocif même lorsqu'il fait froid ! Routine de soins du corps pour l'hiver Bien sûr, votre visage n'est pas la seule partie de votre corps qui peut rester sèche et tendue pendant les mois d'hiver. Votre corps aura également besoin d'un peu d'amour supplémentaire. Après la douche, lorsque votre peau est encore humide, prenez le temps de masser avec l' Huile Corporelle Infusée au Miel . La peau humide absorbera plus facilement l'humidité pour de meilleurs résultats. Notre huile corporelle luxueuse et légère est riche en vitamines, minéraux et acides gras qui ravivent la peau sèche et tendue tout en augmentant son élasticité. Sa texture sensorielle offre une hydratation instantanée qui vous donnera votre peau la plus saine à ce jour. Pour une hydratation supplémentaire, vous pouvez appliquer votre lait ou lotion pour le corps préféré sur l'huile pour le corps infusée au miel une fois qu'elle a été complètement absorbée. En effet, notre huile pour le corps est très légère et s'absorbe plus rapidement que la plupart des hydratants à base d'huile. Zones problématiques : s'attaquer aux zones très sèches Parfois, un simple hydratant ne suffira pas - vous aurez peut-être besoin de quelque chose de plus épais et de plus résistant pour traiter ces véritables problèmes (les coupables courants sont les coudes, les genoux, les cuticules, etc.). Ces zones de la peau sont conçues pour bouger afin que vous puissiez vous étirer et vous plier, ce qui signifie qu'elles contiennent moins de glandes productrices de sébum qui aident à hydrater naturellement votre peau. Avec moins de ces glandes, la peau est ici plus épaisse et plus sujette à la sécheresse. Le temps hivernal rend sans surprise la situation encore pire. Pour garder ces zones à problèmes nourries et profondément hydratées, ajoutez notre baume de beauté infusé au miel à votre routine de soins de la peau d'hiver. Les baumes de beauté sont formulés pour nourrir intensément la peau. Ils contiennent des ingrédients naturels hautement concentrés qui favorisent la cicatrisation, apaisent les peaux sèches et gercées et protègent la barrière cutanée. Ce produit riche et hydratant aidera également à prévenir l'assèchement ou l'irritation des zones sensibles à cause du vent et du froid. Appliquez simplement une couche du baume de beauté sur vos zones exposées avant de sortir et pendant votre routine nocturne pour favoriser la récupération de la peau sèche pendant la nuit . Vous pouvez l'appliquer sur votre lotion corporelle habituelle, ou même sur l'huile corporelle infusée au miel pour une double dose d'hydratation au miel. Routine pour des lèvres douces Le temps hivernal peut laisser vos lèvres gercées et sèches. En effet, la peau de vos lèvres est particulièrement fine et peut facilement se déshydrater lorsqu'elle est exposée au vent et au froid. Commencez par l'un de nos conseils de soins de la peau d'hiver préférés - utiliser du miel comme exfoliant doux pour aider à se débarrasser de la peau sèche et squameuse. Pour ce faire, humidifiez une débarbouillette avec de l'eau tiède et appuyez dessus sur vos lèvres pendant quelques minutes pour aider à adoucir la peau. Vous pouvez ensuite mélanger 1 cuillère à café de miel et 1 cuillère à café de sucre (utilisez le miel de votre apiculteur local pour soutenir les efforts apicoles locaux !) Étalez une fine couche de ce délicieux exfoliant sur vos lèvres. Massez doucement le mélange sur vos lèvres en effectuant un mouvement circulaire. Enfin, rincez l'exfoliant à l'eau tiède. Poursuivez avec notre huile pour les lèvres infusée au miel pour nourrir et hydrater vos lèvres, tout en emprisonnant l'hydratation. L'huile pour les lèvres infusée au miel de Gisou est composée de miel de Mirsalehi riche en antioxydants et d'acide hyaluronique intensément hydratant. Il contient également notre mélange exclusif d'huiles Mirsalehi Bee Garden avec des acides gras pour lisser, revitaliser et restaurer instantanément les lèvres sèches et gercées et les protéger des éléments. Vous pouvez appliquer ce produit lorsque vous êtes en déplacement, pour garder vos lèvres hydratées et leur donner un éclat glamour. Ou vous pouvez appliquer une quantité généreuse avant de vous coucher pour un traitement de nuit. Emballer Voilà! Notre guide étape par étape pour garder votre éclat infusé de miel toute l'année.

Learning how to style naturally wavy hair can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be! Using the right products and routine to help tame and take advantage of your beautiful, natural waves can make all the difference. It just takes a little practice!  Here’s everything you need to know about how to style naturally wavy hair like a pro, starting with the prep to finding solutions with and without heat. Let’s get to work!   Styling Waving Hair Begins with Prep When taking advantage of beautiful wavy locks, the key is to take your time with the prep stage. When your hair is fresh out of the shower, the right products and techniques can make a difference.  Washing and Conditioning There are a few essential pointers that individuals with wavy hair should know when it concerns washing and conditioning their hair. For starters, using the right combination can make all the difference. It also matters how often you wash and condition.  What To Use Your shampoo and conditioner should be filled with nourishing ingredients that complement your hair type and enhance its natural state. The shampoo should be sulfate-free and clarifying to help remove any build-up that could be blocking hair growth.  Gisou’s Honey-infused Shampoo is an excellent example because it is a gentle cleanser with significant benefits. Girls with wavy hair often worry about stripping away the natural oils that help provide their hair texture and shape.  This shampoo contains amino acids, argan oil, honey, and other natural ingredients that protect and repair damage. The same can be said for Gisou’s Honey Infused Conditioner. You will want a conditioner that leaves your hair fully hydrated. Why? Because when wavy hair is thoroughly dried out, it turns frizzy.  When To Use It Knowing when to shampoo and condition is also essential. Overdoing will dry the hair out or kick your oil glands into overproduction, making your hair feel greasy at all times. And, of course, your locks will feel more limp than bouncy without a good wash.  When you have wavy hair, you can wash it every two to three days. Your natural oils will give it its texture and keep it hydrated.  Every time you wash your hair, you should also give it a good condition. In fact, you should also use Gisou’s Leave-in Conditioner to detangle any knots you encounter before styling. Deep Conditioning Deep conditioning provides intense hydration and repair for naturally wavy hair. It is the extra TLC your wavy hair needs to look its best.  What To Use A hair mask like Gisou’s is the ultimate option. A hair mask is meant to deeply penetrate through the outer layer of the hair strand and lock in moisture. The Miraseli Honey is the core ingredient that acts as a natural humectant and emollient, so the hydrating molecules grip the hair. So long damaged hair.  How To Use It When it comes to styling wavy hair and hair masks, we recommend leaving them on overnight. While you can do a 20-minute pre-shower session, leaving the mask on overnight allows for enough time for the antioxidants, vitamins, and amino acids to really do their job.  When you wake up, go ahead and go through your shampoo routine and wash out any excess. When you’re done, you’ll be ready to start styling the hair.  Towel Drying without Causing Frizz One of the most difficult parts of the process is drying our hair. Heat damage is never fun, but the towel causes so much frizz. With the right product and process, we can solve this—hint: Wavy hair should follow similar protocols to curly hair.  Steps Say goodbye to terry cloth towels and hello to microfiber towels. While terry cloth is absorbent, the loop can be quite abrasive for our hair. In this case, it can cause breakage and frizz. Swap it out for something more gentle such as a microfiber towel.  Grab a good detangler like Gisou’s Leave-in Conditioner. This will help smooth out your hair as you start to brush it gently. Spray evenly from the mid-lengths of the hair to the ends. We don’t want to get greasy roots too soon! Continue squeegeeing your hair with the towel to create your natural waves while also drying your hair.  We call this the scrunch method, which will allow your hair to continue to dry naturally.  A Wide-Tooth Comb is Wavy Hair's Best Friend When you use a tool to detangle wavy hair, a wide-tooth comb is certainly the way to go. The reason is that a bristle brush will break up the hair and cause it to frizz out. It also will break up your natural waves. Being able to detangle without being destructive is key.  How to Style Wavy Hair With or Without Heat Now, we know what we should be using, so how do we put together the perfect wavy look? No matter your hairstyle or whether you have long or short wavy hair, this is how to get you a wavy look.  Defining Your Waves Here are a few methods that are specific to your wave type!  2A waves are on the looser side and are generally described as a tousled look. When you dry comb through this type of wavy hair, you can really frizz out. Use a minimal amount of lightweight curl or wave-defining product such as Gisou’s Texturizing Wave Spray, and flip your hair upside down as you apply it. Gisou Hair Oil is a great option to get rid of unwanted frizz. Scrunch with your hands to define the look.   2B is your medium wavy hair and is a bit more defined. Because this type of hair holds curls well, you can use your wide-tooth comb to brush it out and use a heavier leave-in conditioner to provide extra moisture.  2C is the closest thing we have to curly hair. It’s a thin line but also holds texture very well. Typically, this hair is more coarse in nature, so it’s time to use both an overnight hair mask and a combination of oil and leave-in conditioner. Continue to keep away from the roots after the shampoo and condition.   Air Drying Naturally Wavy Hair When you go through the process above, you can naturally let your hair dry after the towel dry and scrunching. This is the healthiest approach for your hair as you don’t have to worry about extra heat causing damage or drying out your hair. The drier your hair is, the farther away from heat you should stay.  Blow Drying Naturally Wavy Hair with a Diffuser  It’s not always possible to get away without blow-drying your hair. But don’t just use any blow dryer; you will want to have a diffuser attachment. Diffusers add shape and volume and help define existing waves in naturally wavy hair. This is because the heat is dispersed more broadly rather than a hot push to one area, breaking up the hair and waves.  Creating Beachy Waves without Heat There is an old-fashioned trick that must not be forgotten. Sleeping in braids is a beautiful way to create beach waves. But what most people forget is to spray the hair first with Giou’s texturizing wave hair spray which will help enhance the waves that much more. When you wake up in the morning, take the braid out, give your hair another spray, and brush it out with a wide comb. Hello, Aquamarine!  Styling Short Wavy Hair Not all mermaids have to have long hair. In fact, it’s on trend to have short hair, and styling it with some waves is the perfect volume boost. For short hair, you will want to stay on the same haircare routine mentioned above with the scrunch and either blow drying with a diffuser or towel-drying.  But here are two looks we love for short, wavy hair.  The wavy bob, left as is, is a beautiful look as it provides a lot of volume to short hair. It also enhances the bone structure in one's face as it highlights the jawline.  If you want to enhance your jawline even more, pin one side of your hair back off your face.  But that’s not all we can do. Updo’s and half updos are also great options for both short and long wavy hair.  Making a Wavy Updo or Half Updo A wavy high pony or low pony is a beautiful updo, no matter where it sits. This brings extra volume to a traditional ponytail, giving you that full, luxurious look.  You can also choose to comb back just the top part of your hair to create a half-up, half-down look. Section your hair by pulling back the hair closest to the forefront of your head. You can comb it back into a pony, a low bun, or even a top knot bun for this look.  Let’s not forget braids with wavy hair. You can section your hair just like in the step above and make it into pulled-back braids for a more intricate look.  Straightening Wavy Hair with a Flat Iron It’s normal to want what we can’t have. That’s why sometimes women with curly or wavy hair opt for the right iron. If you wish to have straight hair, this is a better option than a frizzy blowout. However, it can be more damaging. It is crucial to use a high-quality heat protectant that goes over 400 degrees Fahrenheit of protection.  The Best Products for Styling Wavy Hair Leave-In Conditioner Gisou’s Leave-in Conditioner is perfect for most girls with wavy hair. The goal is to soften hair, tame frizz, and provide the ultimate wavy results. It also doubles as a heat protectant and detangler. This is due to the Baobab extract that also fights off UV rays.  Heat Protecting Spray Using a heat-protecting spray is crucial. Gisou offers a few key elements that should not go unnoticed. Gisou Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray will protect your hair from hot tools up to 230ᵒC/446ᵒF. It also has a special UV filter combination to protect against the sun. This will help with the main task of eliminating breakage.  Hair Serum A hair serum is thicker than a hair oil and may be a fantastic solution for coarse hair and tight waves. Gisou Hair Repair Serum will add shine and provide incredible moisture to define waves that offer a lightweight solution to avoid build-up. This is thanks to the ingredient Keraguard, which also doubles as another alternative heat protectant.  Texturizing Wave Spray Gisou’s Texturizing Wave Spray is ideal for beachy hair and defining natural waves. This is what you can use on top of overnight braids. Propolis is the main ingredient here and is produced by bees that help build their strong beehives.  It helps prevent major breakage while being sure to boost hair texture, volume, and definition. Gisou’s Texturizing Wave Spray also works to strengthen the strands, eliminating breakage.  Hair Oil We mentioned hair oiling is a lightweight solution to add some shine and hydration. Hair oils should be a powerhouse with ingredients that enrich your hair and help restore it. Gisou’s Hair Oil adds instant shine and tames frizz. The best part? It’s all clinically proven.  Putting The Work In For Ultimate Styling Knowing your hair and what works for you goes hand in hand. With the help of some amazing products, you should feel like they do the work for you instead of having to do all the heavy lifting. If you are in the market for a product overhaul, then look no further than Gisou’s full range of hair care products. Our products are infused with Mirsalehi Honey, a powerhouse ingredient that provides intense nourishment and moisture. Say goodbye to dry, frizzy hair and hello to shiny, beautiful, wavy locks.

Taking good care of your hair can sometimes feel like a full-time job. Researching products and using different methods to nourish your hair can be overwhelming. One of the topics that are at the center of mixed reviews is oiling hair overnight.  For a while now, many of us have been wondering whether oiling hair overnight is good or bad. Thankfully, we have taken a deep dive into the process and have all your answered questions right here.  Is It Good or Bad to Oil Your Hair Overnight? When hair oiling is done right, it can provide many long-lasting benefits. With this deep conditioning method, natural hair repair and hair growth are among the top benefits. After checking them out, you’ll be looking forward to this part of your hair care routine every week!  The Benefits of Oiling Hair Overnight Hair oiling benefits are endless. A good product is a multi-tasker that can feel like Wonder Woman came and did your hair. After a good oiling treatment, your hair should feel light and bouncy but deeply hydrated and not staticky. Let’s talk about each benefit with a little more depth and knowledge!  Deep Conditioning Oiling your hair overnight as opposed to 15 minutes provides the ultimate deep condition. This is different from an overnight hair mask because the oil penetrates the strands and seals the cuticles down. Porous hair is when the hair cuticles open up. This allows for moisture in but also allows for it to seep out just as quickly, often leaving hair dry.  Hair oiling helps seal down the hair cuticles, which allows it to condition the strands past the outer layer deeply. By keeping it on overnight, you allow longer absorption.  Natural Hair Repair While going to a hair salon is a nice experience, it’s also an expensive one. And often, we can find chemical treatments to be more damaging than helpful. Hair oiling with Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Oil is a natural solution with powerful benefits.  Enhanced Hair Growth Hair oil should be rich in amino acids, minerals, and vitamins that work double time. It’s not only a preventative hair treatment, but it also repairs any current damage. When our locks are strong and nourished, split ends and breakage are minimized.  With a quality hair oil like this, you can count on 72 hours of hydration. This means you can oil twice weekly to take advantage of full-time benefits.  Reduced Hair shedding Naturally, with stronger locks and less breakage, we have less hair shedding. The more we find splits creeping up our strands, the more hair fall we will deal with. A good hair oil can seal breakage and prevent it from traveling further.  Improved Scalp Health Hair oiling, however, is not just for the tips and breakage. Often, when we do a quick treatment, we focus on the mid-lengths to the ends of the hair. When you do an overnight treatment, you can massage the oil into your scalp.  When our scalp is itchy, dry, and undernourished, new hair growth can be slowed down. The drier the scalp, the more hair loss and the slower new hairs grow. This is especially true for colder climates.  Natural Shine and Luster Hair that is left unmoisturized can often look lackluster and limp. After a deep hair oiling treatment, you'll notice that your locks have the right amount of shine. Too much oil and your hair can look greasy. But the right amount leaves it with the perfect shine.  Split End Prevention Split ends are often caused by environmental and heat damage. While the oil acts as a sealant and moisture renewal, it also can act as a heat protectant when styling your hair. You can use hair oil as a light treatment to prevent split ends and as a repairing treatment overnight.   Softer and More Manageable Hair When we brush through dry hair that is knotted, it’s not uncommon to see it break right off or fall out. But when our hair is well-oiled and moisturized, it’s easier to work with. We have less tangled hair throughout the day. Hair oiling simply makes our hair more manageable.  How to Oil Hair Overnight While thinking of all the benefits listed above, it’s an easy yes to incorporate this into our hair care routine. But doing it the right way is critical in order to take advantage of all the benefits and not cause any damage.  Prepping Your Hair and Scalp Oiling your hair at the right time is important. If we wait too long between washes to oil our hair, the natural oils on your scalp can build up and create a blockage. Ideally, you will use an overnight oil treatment the day after a good wash and condition.  Use a moisturizing hair wash that can clean the scalp and get rid of any build-up that can be further blocked with hair oiling. Combined with a good conditioner such as Gisou’s Honey-Infused conditioner, it will start the hydrating process.  Applying Hair Oil The next day before bed, start with two to three drops of oil in the palms of your hand. Rubbing it together will help warm the oil. Start by massaging it from the mid-lengths down to the roots to cover the part of the hair that has the most damage.  View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Massaging Your Scalp Taking an additional drop and rubbing it between your palms, massage it into your scalp. By using your fingertips to massage your scalp, you are not only rubbing in the hair oil but promoting blood circulation. This helps stem natural hair growth.  Protecting Your Bedding One part that many of us forget when we go to bed is that there is oil in our hair. If we simply lay down on our pillowcases, the oil will get over our faces and can move debris and dirt, causing a mess. It’s important to wear a hair cover that is made of nonabrasive material like microfiber cloth or silk.  The Morning After: Washing and Styling Oiled Hair Leave plenty of time for a good shower the next morning. We want to thoroughly wash out the oil, massaging the scalp to get rid of any build-up. Gisou’s Honey-Infused Hair Wash is a natural solution that helps cleanse the scalp and hair without washing away any natural oils, leaving our hair dry again.  When followed up with Gisou’s Honey Infused Conditioner, our hair will feel naturally soft and hydrated. This will make it easier to work with and style. However, if you need additional products to style it, there is no shortage of options.  How Often Should You Oil Your Hair Overnight? With Gisou’s Hair Oil, providing 8 hours of hydration twice a week is plenty. But some hair is greasier than others, which makes once a week plenty fine. It becomes a balancing act. For those who have drier hair, they can benefit from more oiling and more product.  How Much Hair Oil Should I Use When Oiling Overnight? Two to three drops will be enough for most people’s hair. If your hair is extra dry or you have a lot of hair to work with, you can up the drops to three or four. Finding the balance of what our hair needs is important. It’s easy to overcompensate in the beginning, but just remembering a little goes a long way.  The Best Hair Oil for Oiling Hair Overnight A quality hair oil is a must for this kind of treatment. Otherwise, we are left with greasy hair that has no benefits. Our Honey-Infused Hair Oil is an excellent choice because of all the benefits it has to offer. Aside from lasting hydration, it is also filled with powerful antioxidants that help restore itself to its purest form. These amino acids boost hair strength and help limit breakage.  This is because Mirsalehi Honey is a natural humectant and grabs onto the moisture droplets to penetrate through the hair. With a boosted shine and controlled frizz thanks to Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil it leaves behind a subtle yet natural scent. A Staple in Every Hair Care Routine Hair oiling overnight is a staple to any hair care routine for ultimate hair health. That’s why we shouldn’t wait to order our Gisou Hair Oil! Honey is the powerful go-to ingredient that is the difference maker. With it being a natural moisturizer, potion for restoration, and a lovely fragrance, what’s more to love?

From battling the unruly static of winter to combating the frizz-inducing humidity of summer, flyaway hair can wreak havoc on even the most meticulously styled locks. Those stubborn strands that seem to have a mind of their own are the arch-nemesis of a flawless hairdo. Thankfully, there are many effective strategies to help you tame flyaways for good!  How to Get Rid of Flyaways for Good Sometimes, our flyaways are caused by baby hairs that are just growing in, but other times, it’s the direct result of dryness and hair breakage. Here are our top 10 tips to tame flyaway hair and boost your hair’s health for the long haul.  1. Use a Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner Flyaways tend to make their appearance when your hair experiences static or feels excessively dry. Achieving that perfect balance of well-hydrated hair with just the right amount of weight to prevent flyaways is the key.  This is where the magic of a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner comes into play. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Wash is a great example! This gentle cleanser effectively cleanses your hair without stripping it of all of its natural oils. The result? Silky-smooth, luxurious hair without those pesky flyaways.  But you need a good conditioner to go with it. You should always conditioner your hair after washing to replenish and hydrate your hair. Finding something with a balance that is both weightless and moisturizing is tough. Gisou’s Honey Infused Conditioner is a great choice because it works to detangle the hair and eliminate breakage while providing the hydration your hair needs.  2. Towel Dry with a Microfiber Towel and Perfect Your Blow Drying Technique Using the right towel when drying your hair can make a major difference. While terry cloth towels tend to be very absorbent, the loops and weave structure are incredibly abrasive. This often leads to a lot of breakage and split ends that create flyaways. Instead, opt for a soft microfiber towel and try scrunching the hair rather than roughing it.  It’s not always possible to avoid using heat to dry your hair, which is why certain blow-drying techniques work better than others. A diffuser can be a great solution. When using traditional blow dryers, the hot air is aimed harshly at one spot. A diffuser helps evenly spread the air and heat, creating more volume and less damage.  3. Minimize Heat Damage with a Heat Protectant Flyaways are usually a result of breakage that end up disguising themselves as baby hairs. Breakage is often a result of tight ponytails or too much heat damage. Since it’s not always possible to avoid hot tools, using the right heat protectant can be life-changing for your hair.  Gisou’s Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray is the perfect example. It protects your hair from up to 230 C/446 F and has additional strengthening benefits, making it the ultimate multi-tasker. Interestingly enough, Propolis is used by bees to create strong beehives. It's no wonder it also makes for strong hair.  It’s best applied to sectioned hair that is slightly damp from the shower. By using a wide-tooth comb to spread evenly, you can be sure that all areas of your hair are protected.  4. Prevent Breakage with Hair Serum Another great option to prevent breakage is to pair your heat protectant with a repairing hair serum. Hair serums are slightly thicker than oil, adding a double layer of protection and moisturizing the hair deep within.  Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Repair Serum is not only a preventative but also works to restore balance to the hair. This is thanks to the Mirsalehi Honey and Bee Garden Oil Blend that seals in moisture and acts as a natural humectant.  This hair serum is best applied to damp hair from the mid-lengths of the hair down to the ends before styling.  5. Tame Flyaways with Hair Oil Hair oil is the perfect product for taming flyaways. When our hair is moisturized naturally, we see fewer flyaways. But sometimes, a few can sneak in anyway. Apply a small drop of hair oil to your hair and lightly brush down the flyways with a little hair oil magic.  Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Oil is clinically proven to provide immediate results and give that luxurious shine we all crave. The best part is that a little goes a long way. You only need a few drops to tame the flyaways, and it can be used in perfect combination with heat protectant to promote overall hair health.  6. Detangle with Care to Avoid Breakage We keep bringing up the wide-tooth comb and for good reasons. It’s the best option for detangling the hair to avoid damage and breakage, especially when used in combination with a leave-in conditioner. In contrast, brushing aggressively through knots can cause excessive breakage, making flyaway hairs worse.   A detangler such as Gisou’s Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner serves so many purposes. Coming right out of the shower, you can use this powerhouse mix to undo some of the tussles the towel creates. It also serves as a defense barrier from pollution and heat and works to provide continual hydration to the strands.  7. Sleep on a Silk Pillowcase to Reduce Friction If you are anything like us, then you may find yourself tossing and turning at night. Do you wake up with a bedhead? Constant friction against the pillowcase can lead to static and breakage, which is why using a silk pillowcase is a great solution.  The material is less abrasive, similar to why we should swap out our bath towels for something softer. Every little bit of effort can go a long way.  8. Deep Condition Regularly to Prevent Flyaways Leave-in conditioner is a great option to keep your hair hydrated on a daily basis, but sometimes we need an extra boost. Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Mask is infused with Mirsalehi Honey and is the ultimate multi-tasker. As an overnight treatment, it gives you intense hydration that will leave your hair feeling moisturized to help tame any flyaways.  But if you can’t make that time commitment, it’s OK. Our hair mask can be used as a pre-shower mask or even right in the shower when you have just a few quick minutes. The results speak for themselves when you see all your hair smooth, hydrated, and flyaway-free. 9. Prep for Styling with a Hair Primer Hair spray isn’t the best answer for flyaways because it can be drying. It’s better to tame flyaway hair, with the right primer. Gisous’ Propolis Infused Polishing Primer is lightweight and offers the ultimate frizz control. It also has the remarkable ability to reduce drying time (less heat) and is able to give your hair just enough hold to style it. Say goodbye to crunchy hairspray that results in breakage.  10. Get Regular Trims to Minimize Split Ends Last but certainly not least, getting regular haircuts and trims can minimize your split ends. The more the end splits, the higher the breakage goes and the worse your flyaways appear. This is why sometimes it looks like we have unexpected layers put in our hair. It’s actually just breakage. Getting trims every six to eight weeks can be the difference maker.  Frequently Asked Questions About Hair Flyaways What Causes Flyaway Hair? It’s worth repeating. Breakage and damaged hair are major culprits of flyaways. Ultimately, this is a sign of dry hair because weak, brittle hair is more susceptible to breakage than strong and moisturized locks. This is why it’s critical to provide moisture without overwashing, styling and stripping the hair constantly.  What Hair Types Are More Prone to Flyaway Hair? The most common hair type to experience flyaways is actually wavy hair. However, keep in mind everyone is susceptible to flyways and should hydrate their hair to the degree or level needed to maintain optimal health. Wavy hair tends to have more open cuticles that result in moisture loss and drier hair.  What's the Difference Between Frizzy and Flyaway Hair? Frizzy hair is not the same thing as flyaways. Flyaways tend to move away from the head, creating a 3-D alien look no one likes. Frizzy hair may look like flyaways but is more of a direct result of dry hair. Flyways tend to be more about breakaways or even new hair growth.  Trying Different Steps To Sort Your Flyways Any of these tips can be used to help with taming your flyaways. By stocking up on your favorite Gisou Hair Care products, you can both replenish and style your hair without the stress of flyaways. A natural approach is always the best one because the results will be everlasting.  Putting a little time and effort into your hair care routine will eliminate multiple problems by reducing breakage and dry hair. All of these products will certainly help with that!

Hair routines have always been a sticky subject. Some days, we are in the mood for long and luxurious spa treatments. On other days, we want 5-minute hair hacks that will change the game for us. You know, that effortless look some people just pull off? Well, we took the time and did the research. No need to spend hours searching for the next big thing to save your hair. You can simply take advantage of these awesome life-saving hair hacks that take no more than a few minutes out of your day.  Our Favorite Quick and Easy Hair Hacks  Without further adieu, here is everything you need to know about maintaining a healthy head of hair. Doesn’t matter whether you have fine hair, curly hair, or hair that is already in good shape. These products and hacks work for everyone. Repair Split Ends with Hair Serum Using hair serum to repair your split ends is a game changer. But not everyone knows what to use and how to use it. Gisou’s Hair Repair Serum is a great example of a worthy product because it has key ingredients that can help reverse damage. Mirsalehi Honey helps provide the necessary hydration that the hair is lacking. Honey is also a humectant that naturally grips onto the hair for absorption. Essential fatty acids such as Omega 3,6, and 9 nourish and strengthen your hair. Keratin is a known ingredient used to repair brittle or dry hair. Gisou uses a plant-based source, meaning it’s cruelty-free and more sustainable than animal-derived keratin.  Apply the serum on damp hair from the mid-lengths of your hair to the end where it needs the most love. The downward motion helps smooth hair follicles. This leaves a weightless, smooth appearance that helps damaged hair. Serums can be left in until the next wash! 5-Minute Beach Waves with Texturizing Spray Bubbly beach waves are always the rave. But getting the wave is a totally different story. You don’t have to work with hot tools when you have the right texture spray.  Spray Gisou’s Texturizing Wave Spray from an arm’s length distance evenly throughout damp hair, then scrunch hair to add waves, texture, and volume. Allow it to dry naturally or blow-dry hair with a diffuser. Tame Frizz with Hair Oil Don’t you hate it when the hair gets all frizzy and out of control because of humidity or static? Don’t stress, hair oil can do wonders for that. Similar to a hair serum, hair oil also has restorative properties, but it should be applied to dry hair whereas hair serum should always be applied to damp hair. A little goes a long way, so you may only need 1-2 drops. You can add a few more if your hair's a little thicker. To best apply, use the following tricks. Drop a few drops into your palms and rub your palms together, warming up the oil.  Run your hands through dry hair and evenly spread it through the lengths of your hair. You can even gently comb your fingers through your hair to detangle and smooth frizz Avoid the scalp area if your hair is prone to greasiness. If you’re going for a sleek bun look, applying a little bit of hair oil to the top of your hair will help smooth down baby hairs. Hair oiling is a great five-minute hair hack that is low maintenance and yields amazing results.  Create Heatless Curls Overnight Heatless curls are an easy way to get amazing results that are damage-free. You can order a heatless curls hair accessory to wrap your hair around, but if you don’t have one of those handy, a silk pillowcase, robe belt, or long socks are also great substitutes. A great trick and hair hack is to layer your hair up with the right products before wrapping them. The first step is to rinse your hair with a quality shampoo and conditioner. After you do this, you can apply your texture spray to help hold the volume the next day. Then go ahead and wrap your hair and sleep on it overnight.  The next morning, you should have volumizing, beautiful bouncy curls.  View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Protect Your Color with Heat Protectant It’s not always possible to completely toss out the hot tools. But if we are going to use our hot tools, then at least use good heat protection. A good heat protectant should help seal the outer layer.  Gisou’s Heat Protecting Spray is unique in its own right. Let’s dive in.   Mirsalehi Propolis protects your hair from not only extreme heat but also from the sun, which can cause some major damage.  It’s filled with flavonoids, vitamins, and essential minerals that help form a barrier from outside forces while also nourishing from the inside out.  It protects up to 446 degrees Fahrenheit with a UV filter.  These are just a few of the amazing benefits when you choose not just a heat protectant but a multi-functional product.  Add a Few Drops of Hair Oil to Your Conditioning Mask Hair masks are wonderful to get a spa-like treatment right at your house. But you can do one better by adding in an extra dose of love for those who have hair that is particularly damaged or dry. Adding a few drops of hair oil can not only help tame frizz but also give it a smooth and well-hydrated feel.  Go about your normal routine when it comes to getting your hair mask on.   Mix a full dropper of hair oil with a generous scoop of our Honey Infused Hair Mask before applying it throughout the lengths of your hair. Whether it’s before a shower or overnight, rinse thoroughly and follow with your favorite shampoo and conditioner. Massage Your Scalp to Promote Healthy Hair Growth There are many benefits from scalp massages, but even more so when combined with a balancing scalp treatment. Massaging your scalp stimulates the blood flow which in turn promotes hair growth. Incorporating a scalp treatment into your massage routine is a great way to balance the scalp microbiome and create an ideal environment for healthy hair growth.  Create a Sleek Bun with Hair Primer There is nothing more stylish these days than a sleek bun. Plus, it’s very tactical and keeps away the whispies. But a sleek bun only works if you have the right product. If you find yourself unable to tame whispies, then you must try out the Polishing Primer. It is lightweight, which is a must because the last thing your bun needs is a greasy look.  The primer also has a unique ability to reduce frizz and speed up drying time after getting out of the shower. Say hello to enhanced texture and more volume.  Hair Routines Can Be Made Easy Usually, when our hair routines are difficult, we only stick to it a few times before letting it go. That’s why taking advantage of hair hacks and hairstyles that are made easy can be an absolute game changer. These hair hacks listed above are among the most popular, but that doesn’t mean you can’t create a few of your own. Quality products are the key to success in any hair care routine. That’s why Gisou has a number of options to choose from to ensure healthy and happy hair for all. The best part is they are all multifunctional, which makes your hair hacks even easier.

Whether you have long, lustrous locks or a shorter, edgy style, hair tangling is a common issue that can be a real nuisance. Why does hair tangle so easily? Is it purely a matter of hair type, or are there other factors at play? In this article, we’ll uncover the most common causes of tangled hair and offer some proactive solutions to keep your hair tangle-free and looking fabulous! Ready to bid farewell to those daily battles with your hairbrush and embrace a smoother, more manageable mane? Here’s what you need to know! Why Does Hair Tangle So Easily? Why does your hair tangle so easily? The frustration is real, but understanding why it happens is the first step to learning how to keep hair from tangling in the first place. Hair type, lack of moisture, friction, and damage are the four main factors that come into play. Hair Type You guessed it! Hair type plays a major role in how prone your strands are to tangling. Due to its smooth, uniform structure, straight hair may tangle less frequently. However, if your hair is long and fine, it is likely more prone to tangling, whether it’s curly or straight. The twists and turns of curly hair make it much more susceptible to tangling. Wavy hair falls somewhere in between straight and curly, and its susceptibility to tangling depends on the tightness of your wave pattern. As you can imagine, the complex pattern of coily or kinky hair allows it to interweave and tangle very easily. Lack of Moisture Dry hair is more prone to friction and static, which causes the strands to tangle and interweave. Environmental factors like wind and low humidity can sap the moisture out of your hair, leaving it dehydrated and more prone to tangles. Excessive shampooing or using the wrong shampoo can strip your hair of its natural oils, leaving it dry and vulnerable to tangles. Frequent heat styling can also damage the hair cuticle, and reduce its ability to retain moisture. Damaged Ends and Cuticles When the protective outer layer of your hair, the cuticle, is damaged, it can expose the inner layers to friction and cause tangling. Split ends are also a common issue that can lead to tangling and should be trimmed regularly. Chemical treatments, excessive heat styling, environmental stressors, and using the wrong hair products are the most common causes of damaged ends and cuticles. Friction Friction is perhaps the most straightforward yet significant factor that causes tangles. When the strands of your hair rub together, they often become entangled. Friction becomes an issue when the hair rubs repeatedly against clothing, pillowcases, and certain hair accessories. Vigorous towel drying can also lead to friction-induced tangling. And, of course, environmental factors like wind are also a leading cause of tangling and friction. How to Prevent Tangled Hair So, what can you do to address these common causes of tangled hair? Fortunately, there are many proactive steps you can take to improve the overall condition of your hair and keep it tangle-free. Here’s how to prevent hair from tangling and maintain a head-turning mane! Condition Every Time You Shampoo Conditioning is an essential step in your hair care routine that should never be skipped. Using conditioner after every shampoo helps to replenish moisture and smooth the hair cuticle, reducing the likelihood of tangles. Focus on applying our Honey-Infused Conditioner from the mid-lengths to the ends. This weightless, nourishing conditioner is formulated to gently detangle, leaving the hair manageable and strong.  Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to gently remove any tangles and distribute the conditioner evenly throughout your hair. Allow the conditioner to sit on your hair for 1-2 minutes before rinsing it with cool water to give it a chance to work its magic.  Hydrate Daily with Leave-In Conditioner We suggest incorporating a leave-in conditioner into your routine any time your hair needs some extra moisture. It can be applied to damp hair before combing for easier detangling and less damage or applied to dry hair before styling in between wash days. Our Honey-Infused Leave-In Conditioner is a lightweight, multi-tasking spray that hydrates, smooths, and detangles the hair. It also adds a layer of protection against pollution, heat damage, and breakage, which is key for preventing tangles. To apply, simply spray evenly from mid-lengths to ends and comb through to distribute. Deep Condition Regularly In addition to your regular conditioner, consider incorporating a deep-conditioning hair mask into your routine at least once a week. These intensive treatments can help repair damage and keep your hair soft and tangle-free. Our Honey-Infused Hair Mask is ideal for improving the condition of your hair and keeping tangles at bay. It provides intense nourishment to improve the elasticity of your hair and add shine. Use it on dry, damp, or wet hair in the shower or overnight. Seal Your Ends Applying our Honey-Infused Hair Repair Serum to the ends of your hair can help seal split ends, reducing the chances of the split ends traveling up the hair shaft and leaving it more prone to tangling. It also intensively hydrates the hair, smooths frizz, and repairs damage to prevent breakage that can contribute to tangling.  Apply the hair serum to damp hair after showering, before you begin your styling process. Simply dispense a dropper full of serum into the palm of your hand, rub your palms together, and work the serum through the lengths of your hair, focusing on the ends. Adjust the amount of serum used based on the length and thickness of your hair. Use Hot Tools Less Often Frequent use of heat styling tools can lead to damage and dryness, making your hair more prone to tangling. Consider embracing your natural texture more often and limit heat styling to special occasions. When you do use hot tools, always apply a heat-protecting spray first. Our Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray is designed to protect the hair against heat damage caused by blow drying, styling tools, and the sun. Mist it evenly throughout your hair before applying heat tools or spending time in the sun to create a protective barrier against damage and moisture loss.  Protect Your Hair While You Sleep Your nighttime routine can make a big difference when it comes to preventing tangles. Consider making the switch to a silk pillowcase. Good quality silk creates less friction with the hair than cotton. Gently tying your hair into a loose braid or bun is also a great way to prevent friction and tangles while you sleep. You can also wrap your hair in a silk or satin head wrap or scarf to protect it from friction, prevent tangles, and maintain your style. Go Easy with the Towel Rubbing your hair vigorously with a towel can create friction and cause tangles. Instead, gently pat your hair dry with a microfiber towel designed to soak up moisture. If you have textured hair, consider trying the plop method using a t-shirt to improve curl definition, reduce friction, and minimize tangles Get Regular Trims Regular trims are essential for maintaining healthy hair and preventing split ends that can lead to tangling. Aim for a trim at least every 6-8 weeks to keep your ends in good shape. Oil Your Hair Regularly Using hair oil regularly provides your hair with much-needed moisture and protection against tangles. Hair oil not only prevents hair breakage but also reduces frizz and smoothes the hair cuticle to help keep tangles at bay. Our Honey Infused Hair Oil can be used as a pre-styling and finishing product, a pre-shampoo treatment, applied as an intensive conditioning treatment overnight, or added to your weekly hair mask to amp up the benefits. Avoid Sulfates and Other Harsh Ingredients When choosing your hair care products, avoid harsh detergents like sulfates, which can strip the hair of its natural oils and make it more prone to tangling. Opt for natural, sulfate-free formulas like our Honey-Infused Hair Wash, which is free of ingredients that strip the hair. Utilize Protective Hairstyles For times when your hair will be exposed to wind and other harsh weather conditions, consider securing it into a protective hairstyle, like braids, twists, or a bun. These styles not only look great but also reduce friction and tangling. Helpful Detangling Tips Taming tangled hair can be a pain, but with the right tools and techniques, you make the process much easier. Here are a few helpful detangling tips to help you navigate those pesky knots with ease. Start with Leave-In Conditioner: Before you even pick up the comb, mist your hair with a leave-in conditioning spray. It will add an extra layer of moisture and slip to the hair, making it easier to detangle. Use a wide-tooth comb or a detangling brush: When it comes to detangling, the right tool makes all the difference. Reach for a wide-tooth comb or a detangling brush. They’re gentler on the hair and less likely to cause breakage. Divide and conquer: Don’t try to tackle it all at once! Divide your hair into smaller sections and work on each section one by one.

What is glass hair? It’s all about achieving a look that’s as reflective and lustrous as a glass surface catching sunlight. Picture hair that’s so sleek and shiny, it reflects light like a perfectly polished mirror. That’s the essence of glass hair - a trend that’s turning heads across the globe! Most of us covet shiny, healthy-looking hair, but the glass hair trend takes it to an all-new level by giving an almost liquidy-smooth look to the hair. So, what does it take to transform your hair into a glossy masterpiece? Here’s how to make glass hair your signature style, step-by-step! What is Glass Hair? Glass hair is an ultra-sleek and polished hairstyle with a high-gloss, mirror-like finish. This hairstyle trend is all about achieving hair that appears smooth, luminous, and impeccably shiny, much like the reflective surface of glass.  The hair glass look has gained popularity for its chic and sophisticated appearance. Although it originated on blunt bob haircuts, the glass hair trend now encompasses styles of any length. Best of all, glass hair can easily be achieved at home with a little practice and the right hair care strategy. Key Characteristics of Glass Hair Achieving glass hair isn’t just about shine - it’s a combination of specific elements that come together to create a striking, polished effect. Let’s explore the key characteristics that define glass hair to help you understand exactly what you’re working to achieve. Mirror-Like Shine The hallmark of glass hair is its unparalleled shine. Every strand of hair is so sleek, straight, and shiny that resembles the flawless surface of a mirror. This dazzling shine is achieved through proper haircare, styling, and using the right products. Silky Smooth Texture Glass hair is perfectly smooth to the touch. Frizz and flyaways are eliminated, and the hair feels soft as silk. This silky smooth texture is essential to achieving this extremely polished look. Blunt Ends The ends of glass hair are typically blunt cut to create a sharp and modern appearance. This clean-cut finish adds to the polished and sophisticated aesthetic of the overall hairstyle. Precision in Styling Achieving the glass hair look requires meticulous styling techniques. Straightening the hair to perfection is essential to achieving a mirror-like finish. Optimal Hair Health Healthy hair is at the core of glass hair. Regular trims, deep conditioning treatments, and proper hydration all contribute to the vibrancy and sheen of the overall look. Minimalist and Elegant Glass hair embraces the minimalist approach. It’s about simplicity and sophistication, making it an ideal choice for those who appreciate understated elegance. Color Brilliance The glass hair effect amplifies the vibrancy of your hair color. Whether your hair is naturally hued or color-treated, the high-gloss finish will enhance the richness of the tones. Achievable By All Hair Types Glass hair isn’t limited to specific hair types. The look can be achieved by straight, wavy, curly, and kinky hair types, provided you’re willing to put in the effort and use the right techniques and products. How to Get Glass Hair You’ve seen glass hair on the runway and coveted the look on your favorite influencers. The good news? The glass hair look can be achieved by anyone! With the right products and a bit of know-how, you can transform your locks into the embodiment of shine and sophistication.  Here’s how to get glass hair, step-by-step: Step 1: Shampoo, Condition, and Towel Dry Begin by washing your hair with a hydrating, shine-boosting shampoo and following with a weightless, nourishing conditioner. This will lay the foundation for a smooth and glossy finish. After rinsing, gently towel dry your hair to remove excess moisture. It should be damp, but not dripping wet. Step 2: Apply a Hair Serum and Heat Protectant Before reaching for any heat styling tools, apply a hair serum to your damp hair. Our Honey Infused Hair Repair Serum is ideal because it eliminates frizz, provides a megawatt shine, and adds an extra layer of protection against heat damage. Follow up with an application of our Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray to ensure that your strands are shielded against the high temperatures of heat styling tools. These two steps are vital for preventing damage, protecting your color from fading, and improving the overall health and strength of your hair. Step 3: Apply a Hair Primer To ensure that your glass hair look stays smooth and polished all day, apply our Propolis Infused Polishing Primer. It’s designed to diminish frizz, reduce drying time, and keep your style in place with a workable hold that’s never stiff or sticky. Step 4: Blowout for Smoothness Comb through your hair with a wide-toothed comb to remove any tangles and ensure that your styling products are distributed evenly. Then, using a round brush and blow dryer, give your hair a smooth blowout. Focus on directing the air downward to encourage the hair cuticles to lay flat, which enhances the reflective quality of glass hair. Step 5: Flat Iron Now comes the crucial step in achieving a glass-like finish. Part your hair as you normally would and using a high-quality flat iron, work in small sections to flat iron your hair until it’s perfectly straight. Glide the flat iron slowly down each section of hair, keeping the iron at a consistent speed and temperature to avoid overexposing any one area to the heat.  Step 6: Apply Hair Oil for the Finishing Touch To seal the deal and a final dose of radiant shine, apply a few drops of Honey Infused Hair Oil throughout the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. A little goes a long way, so start with just a small amount and add more if needed.   View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   Glass Hair Treatment and Care Tips The journey to achieving perfect glass hair doesn’t end with the styling process. To keep your hair looking radiant and smooth, it’s essential to provide it with proper care and hydration. Here are some key tips to help you maintain your glass hair’s radiance. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate Just like a glass surface shines when it’s clean and well-maintained, your hair’s luster is directly linked to its health and hydration.  In addition to using a hydrating shampoo and nourishing conditioner, consider incorporating our Honey Infused Hair Mask into your routine at least once a week. Remember, hydrated hair reflects light better and gives off that coveted glass-like shine. Protect Your Style Overnight Protecting your glass hairstyle while you get your beauty sleep is super important. Invest in a silk or satin pillowcase to minimize any friction that could cause frizz. Loosely wrapping your hair with a silk scarf or turban is a great way to maintain the sleekness of the style and prevent tangles to maintain the polished look. Get Regular Trims Blunt ends are a key part of achieving the glass hair look, but those ends can become compromised over time. Be sure to schedule regular trims to maintain the clean and polished appearance. This also ensures that your hair remains healthy and free of split ends. How to Touch Up and Maintain Glass Hair Between Blowouts Giving yourself a full glass hair blowout and flat ironing every day isn’t always doable, and it’s not the best thing for your hair, either. But maintaining your glass hair’s brilliance between blowouts is entirely achievable with a few strategic products and techniques. Apply Leave In Conditioner for Instant Hydration and Luster Between wash days, use our Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioning Spray to infuse your hair with hydration and a touch of brilliance. Simply spritz it lightly from mid-lengths to ends and air dry to restore softness and enhance the shine of your glass hairstyle. Touch Up with Your Flat Iron To maintain that sleek finish until your next blowout, use your flat iron for quick touch-ups. Concentrate on the top layer and any areas that might have lost their smoothness. Remember to use a heat protectant spray before flat ironing, even for touch-ups. Revive with Hair Oil Our Honey Infused Hair Oil isn’t just the perfect finishing touch after a blowout - it’s also your secret weapon for reviving that glass hair shine between washes. A small amount smoothed over the mid-lengths and ends can work wonders for reinvigorating your hair’s glossy shine. Wrapping Up Glass hair isn’t just a trend - it’s a statement of sophistication and confidence. With proper care, the right techniques, and our honey-infused styling products, you can make this coveted look a part of your everyday style repertoire. 

From controlling frizz and adding shine to repairing and preventing damage, and so much more, hair serum is a must-have multi-tasker in your styling arsenal. You can even use a hair serum to enhance your hair’s straightness or add definition to your curls - the list goes on and on! Hair serums can provide a quick fix and instant results, but they also offer long-term benefits for overall hair health. However, the way you apply it can play a major role in your experience. Here’s the lowdown on how to use hair serum and apply it correctly for spectacular results! How to Use Hair Serum Correctly Love the idea of a hair serum, but aren’t sure where it fits into your hair care routine? Before we dive into the nitty-gritty of how to apply hair serum, let’s cover the basics of how to use a hair serum correctly. When to Apply Hair Serum Hair serum should be applied just after you’ve washed, conditioned, and towel-dried your hair. Your hair is the most receptive to absorbing the nourishing benefits of hair serum when it’s clean and slightly damp. This is when the hair cuticles are open and ready to drink in the goodness that hair serum provides. How Much Hair Serum to Use A little goes a long way! The amount of hair serum you use should be determined by the length and thickness of your hair.  Generally, a dime-sized amount is a good starting point for those with short to medium-length hair. If your locks are on the longer side, increase the amount slightly. Just remember that it’s much easier to add more serum than it is to remove it if you apply too much! How Often to Apply Hair Serum It’s best to apply hair serum to freshly washed hair. Feel free to apply hair serum each time you wash your hair, adjusting the amount based on the length and thickness of your hair.  How to Apply Hair Serum Step-By-Step Now, let’s get to the heart of the matter! Here’s how to apply hair serum step-by-step for that enviable, salon-worthy finish we all crave. Step One: Preparing Your Hair for Serum Application To prepare your hair for serum application, shampoo with a gentle, sulfate-free hair wash and follow with a lightweight, nourishing conditioner. Gently pat your hair with a microfiber towel to remove excess moisture without roughing up your strands. Step Two: Dispense Hair Serum Into Your Palm Begin by dispensing a few drops of hair serum into the palm of your hand. Use more if your hair is long and thick, and less if it’s short. You can always add more if needed, but starting with just a few drops prevents overapplication. Step Three: Apply Serum to the Mid-Lengths and Ends of Your Hair Here’s where the transformation begins! Rub your palms together to warm the serum, then apply the serum starting at the ends and working your way up to the midshaft of your hair. Pay special attention to areas that are prone to dryness, damage, or frizz. Work the serum through your strands, avoiding the roots to prevent weighing the hair down. Step Four: Distribute the Serum with Your Fingers or a Wide-Toothed Comb To ensure even coverage, use your fingers to gently distribute the serum from mid-lengths to ends. If you have long or thick hair, a wide-toothed comb can also be your ally here, ensuring that every strand is coated with nourishing goodness. It’s important to ensure that the serum is evenly distributed throughout for best results. Step Five: Dry and Style as Usual There’s no need to rinse! You’re ready to dry and style your hair as usual. Feel free to air dry or blow dry and bring in your favorite styling tools. You’ll notice the serum’s transformative effects right away, as your hair takes on a glossy, shiny, frizz-free appearance. Watch heads turn as you flaunt your revitalized locks!   View this post on Instagram A post shared by Gisou (@gisou)   What is Hair Serum Used For?

Using Hair Serum with Other Products Did you know that hair serum plays well with other products in your hair care and styling arsenal? Here are some winning combinations to try! Using Hair Serum with Leave-In Conditioner If your hair needs an extra dose of hydration and manageability, consider pairing our hair serum with our Honey Infused Leave-In Conditioner. This dynamic duo is a recipe for hair that’s not just soft and shiny, but also incredibly easy to style.  Simply apply your leave-in conditioner straight out of the shower as usual, then follow up with a few drops of hair serum through the mid-lengths and ends. Using Hair Serum and a Heat Protectant for Added Protection Heat styling tools can be a blessing and curse - they help you get the look you want, but they can also bring on damage. Before you reach for your hairdryer, straightener, or curling iron, apply our hair serum to shield your strands from the heat. Follow up with a spritz of our Propolis Infused Heat Protecting Spray for double the defense against potential damage. Using Hair Serum and Hair Oil Together Want to take your hair’s glossiness factor to new heights? Combine the nourishing properties of hair oil and hair serum!  Start by applying our Hair Repair Serum to your damp hair before blow drying or styling for enhanced shine and manageability. After styling, finish with a small amount of Honey Infused Hair Oil for intense hydration and frizz control. Common Mistakes to Avoid When Applying Hair Serum Now, let’s help you steer clear of some common hair serum missteps that might hinder your path to luscious locks! Avoiding these mistakes will ensure you’re making the most of every drop of your precious hair serum. Using Too Little or Too Much Product When it comes to how much hair serum to use, finding the sweet spot is key! Using too little might not deliver the desired results, while using too much might leave your hair weighed down and greasy. Remember to start with just a few drops and add more only if you need it. Erring on the side of moderation is the best way to avoid overwhelming your strands. Applying Hair Serum to Unwashed Hair Applying hair serum to unwashed hair can lead to uneven distribution and even make your hair appear dirtier. Always start with freshly washed and conditioned hair for the best results. This ensures that the serum can absorb easily and work its magic! Applying Hair Serum to the Roots of the Hair Applying hair serum directly to the roots of your hair can lead to a greasy, weighed-down appearance. Focus on the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, where dryness, breakage, and damage are the most common. Answering Your Frequently Asked Questions The path to perfect hair is paved with knowledge, and we’re here to equip you with all the answers you need! Let’s dive into some of the most common questions about how to use hair serum. Do You Apply Hair Serum On Wet or Dry Hair? At the end of the day, the answer lies somewhere in between! It’s best to apply hair serum to damp hair, just after washing, conditioning, and towel drying. This allows the serum to penetrate effectively without diluting its effectiveness. On the other hand, waiting until the hair’s too dry can lead to uneven distribution and reduced absorption. Can I Use Hair Serum Every Day? It’s best to apply hair serum on wash days to strike the perfect balance between benefits and preventing buildup. However, after the initial application, if your hair is extremely dry and damaged or simply needs a refresher, you can reapply a tiny amount daily or as needed to touch up your style. How is Hair Serum Different from Hair Oil? Hair serum and hair oil might seem similar, but they serve different purposes. Hair serum is generally lighter in texture and is designed to provide immediate results, such as frizz control and shine enhancement. It’s applied as the first step in your styling routine. Hair oil tends to be a little thicker and richer, and although it provides many of the same benefits, it’s primarily used to provide deep hydration and nourishment as a hair treatment, or as the last step in your styling routine. Final Thoughts Ready to witness the transformation firsthand? Say goodbye to frizz, embrace the shine, and give your locks the love they deserve with our Honey Infused Hair Repair Serum. Crafted with care and infused with the nourishing properties of Mirsalehi honey, it’s your secret to lustrous, radiant locks!
