Top 10 Causes For Your Dull Hair

In Everyday Life, you see long locks of shiny hair that seem to glow with a light all of its own in the fashion and beauty magazines. It can leave you feeling that you’ll never have hair that looks like that. Well, the first
thing to remember is that unless you are a model and regularly have your hair photographed under professionally- set lighting, the level of shine and glow seen in magazine photos is not likely to become part of your daily life. This doesn’t mean that you can’t make your hair appear shinier and healthier. It means that you have to remember which are real and which are special effects.

Dull hair looks less healthy, and absorbs light rather than reflecting it. It can also make the color appear lifeless and leave you feeling that your hair is unappealing, when in fact it can be beautiful with just a few simple tips.
