But the real secret is not so much that what use, but when and howDry shampoo, for example, is a fantastic helper – if you use it on time.

2. Hair dryer – with restrictions
No, it will not ruin your hair. If you use it only on the roots, can actually help. Heat activates volume and reduces moisture on the scalp, which makes your hair less oily. Instead, let the lengths dry naturally—your ends and your stylist will thank you.
3. The biggest enemy? Moisture from the shower
