Smooth Strands!
Hair strands that are smooth is the ideal base for shiny locks. Why? Because when your strands are smooth then it makes it easier for the light around you to reflect off your locks.

Hair Styling Products
With the wealth of hair styling products available nowadays, you can buy hair shine in a bottle and just spray it into your locks! Shine enhancing products are great options to try, as are smoothing products that will work in conjunction with your hair straightener and curling iron when you style your hair.
Deep Nourishing Hair Treatments
As smoothness is the key to shiny hair, ensuring your locks are healthy and frizz free is a must. Using a deep nourishing hair treatment regularly, or just before any big event will get your locks into tip top condition so they can respond well to your styling, and be moisturized enough to give off some gloss.
