"Hi I'm Amelia and I am going to show you how to get your hair nice and shiny and smooth as glass. One of the main issues that we run into is frizz and that usually happens from damage that happens on the end of the hair so after your hair is blown out always make sure to use a smoothing product in your hair prior to blowing it out but once your hair is blown out you want to comb out any tangles and I recommend at home using a flat iron because you are going to get the best results from that. Take a section I always like to spray with a little bit of shine spray it really bakes that shine in and shine sprays tend to have a lot of silicones in them so they stuff that hair shaft full of silicone so that you don't get that frizz layer. But what a flat iron is going to do is it is going to help compact that cuticle and get rid of these fuzzy ends and what you are seeing come off the hair is product that I just sprayed on so you always want to comb that hair right after you flat iron it. That helps keep it nice and smooth and you see how these ends have smoothed out compared with these others. That hair is nice and smooth and that not so much. Do it again and I'll show you that one more time so spray a little shine spray. Now people with finer hair types may not want to use a heavy shine spray but they can use like a lighter cream or maybe even there is some aerosol shine sprays that are really light. You will want to talk to your own hair dresser about that, what's going to work best in your own hair. Now you see how nice and shiny and smooth that hair is compared to this hair here. That's how you get your hair nice and shiny and smooth as glass."
