I just do not know what makes hair shine, i guess it is the shampoos that make the hair shine or it maybe due to the hormone in your parents...

hi there, hair shines because of many reason 1st reason is they are lucky.. lol. ok coming to the point.. the reasons are by having nutritious food, with more of vitamins especially a,c and e, and proteins. don't use harsh chemicals on your hair and don't comb it often.. have good sleep and dont stress yourself and avoid exposing hair in dusty areas(cover it if possible).. use natural moisturisers and conditioners..all the best..

Hi gorgeous, I can only picture you will great looking hair. Well I just saw this on the TV show "The Doctors" recently and one thing they showed in home remedies and such was to put mashed up brown bananas on your hair and, I guess, then rinse it out. Supposedly the hair absorbs all kinds of good stuff from them. It sounds a little messy to me though.

To make my hair shiny I regularly used a coconut hair spa and hot oil, it makes my hair so manageable and soft, I don't need to apply a hair conditioner. Back in the province I used to squeeze a fresh coconut milk and pour it in my hair then washed with soap, but now I just use a hair spa made of coconut, it is very effective.

if you apply an good conditioner after you wash your hair then it helps your hair look bouncy and it would shining. but try to avoid shampoos containing more chemicals which does no good to your hair but only detoriate its beauty making them dry and frizzy.normally the ones we use to get rid of dandruff contains to many chemicals which might remove dandruff from your scalp but it damages your hair to great extent. Go for an branded conditioner so you end up with better results.gud day.

For a hair to be shiny, If you are asking for the maintainance then here are the following I may suggest: first, try to eat nutritious food which is one great factor best for the body, second, you can use hot-oil treatments to be applied once in a month, third, too much blower in hair makes it dry.. you can use conditioner in everyday for it to be smooth and shiny not waivey like a bad hair day.. fourth, if it does not work for you, seek a hair doctor to see what type of hair you got and thereby you be given the appropriate treatments.. Since, technology rage fast now? it is easy for the salon to fix what you want for your hair..then follow it with maintainance already..

Eat lots of protein, and avoid putting harsh chemicals such as shampoo, try putting shampoo twice a week.
