Shiny Hair

I have long dark brown hair and I love wearing black and brown. This poses a problem when I find my hair disappearing into my outfit or the background.

Jennifer Connelly has a similar situation. Thanks to Allure’s Daily Beauty Reporter, Jessica Matlin, I found these helpful tips for making dark hair appear shinier.

Caught in the flashbulbs outside of Letterman’s studio, Jennifer Connelly’s hair looked so glossy, I swear I saw a tourist’s reflection in it.

Want your hair looking as insanely shiny (and healthy) as Jennifer’s? Invest in a good spray. When used with restraint–specifically, sprayed only on the bottom half your hair and then combed through–these three will give you the shine, without the grease.

Bumble and bumble Shine. If you think the gold packaging is blingy, just wait till you see your hair. $34.

Pantene Pro-V Ice Shine Hair Spray. A product that adds shine and hold and isn?t a waxy mess? It?s possible. And cheap. $4.49.

Frederic Fekkai Spray On Hair Crystals. Want the hard stuff? Try this aerosol mist swirling with diamond and pearl particles in either Bronze, Copper, or Champage (your choice). $18.50.

Use one of these, and don’t be surprised if the woman on the subway starts looking in your hair to apply her lipstick.
