Your tips for making a good shampoo?
It is not the hair that must be washed but the scalp , so it is necessary to apply the shampoo to the root by sliding the fingers inside, massage well by diluting the shampoo with water for the 'oxygenate and barely touch the tips. Yes the shampoo does not foam especially not to add but to make another one.
How to do a hot brushing at home?
The secret is not to dry your hair directly with the dryer after shampooing but to swaddle it with a microfiber towel, for example while having breakfast so that all the water is well absorbed. Then crumple them well with the towel. This will create a natural movement and the work will then be much faster and the hair less damaged.
How to have volume?
The basis of everything already is the cut which, if done well, will create an optical illusion and volume.
Then have the right gestures : pull the hair at the root with your fingers or the brush upwards to loosen it rather than flattening it with a brush and pulling it downwards.
I also love the good old heated rollers which are really effective for getting a nice volume, no need to put it all over the head but in strategic places, top of the head for example and on the side. Use the anti-aging fluid volume spray from Biosthetique which in addition to giving volume is a real good treatment or the volumizing vegetable tonic from Leonor Greyl.
Your “express” magic wand when you have dull hair?
Use Leonor Greyl's Natural Radiance cream on dry hair, it does not rinse. She's great.
For Laurence scans, colorist outstanding, recently started using a revolutionary product, Opalex than he did discover the creative Jill Sander. She puts it in the balayage to boost the luminosity and protect the hair, the result is stunning!
Your shortlist of the right tools?
The important thing is a good brush made of carbon material which has holes so that the heat does not get stuck between the hair dryer and the brush, and a dryer with a fine tip for a more precise direction of the heat. Go shop in the Passage de l'Industrie , where all hairdressers go!
What are the mistakes to avoid absolutely?
Use vinegar or lemon too often to give shine, in the long term their acidity attacks the hair.
Nourish your hair with olive oil No because it is extremely difficult to rinse it and shampooing it several times to get rid of it will unnecessarily attack it than nourish it.
Thinking that shampooing every day is not good and sticking with your oily hair.
You can wash your hair very well every day if you follow the advice above and use a good shampoo.
