Tired of dry, lifeless hair? Yeah, we feel you. Whether you’re constantly around dry and cold air in the winter months, or constantly in salt water and chlorine during the summer, dry hair is a battle that you have to work at to beat. That’s why we're highlighting must-follow steps on how to make your hair soft, silky, and smooth.

Follow these 10 steps to make your hair soft, smooth and silky

 Step 1: Cleanse the correct way.

 First things first. It’s important to use sulfate and paraben free shampoo. These ingredients tend to dry out the scalp, which will result in dry strands. We recommend using our Replenishing Hair Cleanser any time you wash your hair. This cleanser promotes healthy hair growth and leaves hair soft, silky, and full of shine. It’s completely sulfate and paraben free (also cruelty free, gluten free, and a lot of other -frees.) Quick tip: You should only be cleansing your scalp, never mid shaft to the ends directly. Doing this will leave your hair feeling dull.

 Step 2: Rinse with cold water.

 When you wash your face with warm water, it opens up your pores. The same goes for your scalp, but swap pores for cuticles. It’s important that after taking a steamy hot shower, you give your hair a shock of cool water to seal your cuticles and prevent frizz.

Step 3: Swap out your normal conditioner.

To get smooth hair, you need to invest in a good deep conditioner or hair mask instead of solely relying on your normal conditioner. Our Supreme Revitalizing Mask, an moisturizing mask for hair will give you deep hydration and shine, without ever weighing your hair down. After just one use, you will feel the difference in your hair. Yes, really.

Step 4: Use a microfiber towel or shirt to dry.

 Bath towels can be extremely rough and drying to the hair, especialy if you’re doing it aggressively. Avoid this by using a microfiber towel or soft T-shirt. Scrunch, pat or wrap your hair with these options to avoid frizziness.

Step 5: Sleep on a silk pillowcase.

Using a cotton pillowcase will absorb the oils from your hair resulting in frizzy texture in the morning. If you want to prevent this, try out a silk pillowcase. It will cause less friction, making your hair even smoother than before.

 Step 6: Be careful when you brush and comb.

 Brushing your hair should be a tedious task. Always start from the bottom and work your way up using small sections. For more details, check out our post on how to detangle hair.

 Step 7: Include healthy fats to your diet.

 Eating healthy fats will help you achieve shiny hair. Some examples are avocados, nuts, salmon, and fatty fish. These foods will keep your scalp hydrated so that natural oils can come through.

Step 8: Get ends trimmed frequently.

 If you don’t get your hair trimmed regularly, you will develop split ends. Split ends are extremely noticeable. You will never be able to achieve shiny, silky locks unless you get them trimmed. We recommend getting a trim every 4-6 weeks.

 Step 9: Drink plenty of water.

Hydration is KEY. Make sure you’re drinking enough water throughout the day because it will show through your hair. Drinking at least five glasses of water a day is recommended.

 Step 10: Apply hair serum to lock in moisture and shine.

 Using a hair serum 2-3 times a week is essential and will really give you the silky feel and shine you’re looking for. We recommend using our Biphasic Infusion (aka Liquid Gold). This oil-free hair serum will lock in moisture and provide shine like no other. 

By following these steps, we are confident that you will achieve gorgeous hair. Making your hair soft, silky,  and smooth isn’t as complicated as you think it is. All it takes is taking care of your scalp and cuticles along with a few changes in your daily rouTEAne.

5 Tips For Silky Soft Hair

Follow these tips in acheiving silky soft hair

1. Stay Hydrated

Shiny hair means healthy hair, and healthy hair means that it’s well hydrated and full of natural moisture. To keep your strands quenched, it’s important to follow a moisturizing hair care routine. However, it’s not just our hair that needs to stay hydrated. Drinking lots of water will help restore your locks with the moisture they need to stay soft and frizz-free. Our Hydration Gift Set contains everything you need to leave dry hair behind. This gift set also contains our exclusive ThirsTEA Tumbler, so no more excuses for forgetting to drink your daily two liters of water! 

2. No More Knots

Knots and tangles can truly affect the appearance of your hair. Hair that is tangle-free is more likely to produce gorgeous shine. Removing pesky tangles can be tough, especially if you have thick or curly hair. Hair loss and breakage can occur if detangling is done the wrong way. To gently remove knots without causing damage, pair our Something To BeLeave-In with our Gold Soft Bristle Paddle Brush, which detangles even the unruliest of strands!

3. Hair Masks Are Key

If you’re looking to achieve super soft hair, you need to reserve a few minutes out of the week to use a hair mask. Hair masks are highly potent, concentrated conditioning treatments that help restore natural shine back into your strands. Pai-Shau’s Supreme Revitalizing Mask (Hair Moisturizing Mask) is perfect for just that. It’s weightless moisture formula infuses the strands with nourishing vitamins and minerals and our Signature Tea Complex, a blend of five steeped teas that work on the hair and scalp.

4. Use The Right Hairspray

The hairspray you use plays a major role in the silkiness of your strands, too. Some hair sprays can give a rough, dull appearance to your ‘do, while others can add a beautiful, natural looking shine ..Try our Sublime Hold Hairspray (Flexible Hold Hair Spray) and Imperial Hold Hairspray (Firm Hold Hair Spray). Our Signature Tea Complex helps keep hair smooth, shiny, and fights frizz in the process.

5. Smoothing Hair Serums 

A good hair serum prevents tangles, adds shine, and leaves your hair feeling silky-smooth. Serums can also protect strands from thermal and environmental factors, which can lead to rough, damaged hair. It can be tricky to find the right serum that provides moisture without weighing down your strands or adding a greasy feel. Fortunately, we have the perfect solution. Our Biphasic Infusion Hair Serum is rich in antioxidants and a Signature Tea Complex that promotes health, shine, and nourishment.

If you suffer from hair loss, you’re not alone. In fact, it is estimated that 1 in 4 women have experienced hair loss at some point. Finding solutions outside of medications or intense hair growth treatments can take time and dedication. Pai-Shau's formula uses a unique Signature Tea Complex, antioxidants, and vitamins. Find out how tea for hair can be the solution to all your hair loss problems. 

1. Stimulate Your Scalp

We’ve all heard the old tale that says brushing your hair 100 times a day will lead to long, beautiful locks. There’s actually some truth to this: brushing your hair encourages hair growth because the bristles gently stimulate the scalp, which increases blood flow. More blood to the scalp means more oxygen to the hair follicles, which improves their ability to grow strong, healthy hair. Consider trying Pai-Shau’s signature Gold Paddle Brush, which has extra-soft bristles for even the most delicate of strands. It can be purchased separately or found in our CapTEAvating Gift Set and Life Styling Set. 

2. Try to Reduce the Use of Hot Tools

The overuse of hot tools like curling irons, flat irons, and blow dryers can lead to serious damage to your strands. When too much direct heat is applied to your hair, it dries out the hair shaft, causing breakage and hair loss. To help combat these issues, try limiting the use of heating tools. When you have to heat-style, use a protectant such as Pai-Shau Something To BeLeave-In alongside Biphasic Infusion. If you’re free to air dry, Royal Abundance Mousse gives incredible curls with volume, and our Style Souffle creates a soft and smooth “air-dried” look. 

3. Keep Calm

It’s no secret that mental stress can have a serious impact on your body. During periods of anxiety and high-stress, our hair may begin to fall out more than usual. That’s because this stress causes an increase in cortisol, which can eventually lead to hair loss. If you think that you are experiencing hair loss due to stress, it’s time to take steps to calm yourself. Adding meditation, yoga and exercise to your life can be great ways to reduce tension. Make self care a priority by reserving time in your busy life to relax, have some alone time, or hang out with friends. Sometimes, a fun outing is all you need to unwind after a busy week - just don’t forget your favorite tote!
