- 1. Let down your natural hair
- 2. Trim your hair frequently for better hair growth
- 3. Use colour protecting products

1. Let down your natural hair

Ileana often posts bare-faced pictures flaunting her natural hair — and who wouldn’t want to flaunt such naturally smooth and silky tresses? Stay away from heat styling tools and use products formulated for your hair type to keep your tresses looking healthy and gorgeous AF like the actress.
2. Trim your hair frequently for better hair growth

Sounds counterintuitive, but it’s true. The tips of your hair are prone to damage and split ends, which hampers its natural growth. It is advisable to get frequent trims to ensure healthy-looking, gorgeous hair like Ileana.
3. Use colour protecting products

If you have coloured hair like Ileana, use color-protecting hair care products like the Love Beauty & Planet Murumuru Butter And Rose Aroma Blooming Colour Shampoo + Conditioner. Formulated without parabens, dyes and silicones, it will preserve the vibrancy of your hair colour and repair damage caused by colouring.
4. Minimize heat styling

Heat styling products damage your hair more than you think. Frequent styling robs moisture from your hair making it look dry, damaged and lifeless. Therefore, it is advised to reduce the use of heat styling products. When you do have to use them, spritz on the Tresemme Keratin Smooth Heat Protection Spray to minimise damage.
5. Use a deep conditioning hair mask

Hair masks are essential to deeply nourish hair and repair damage. Depending on your hair type, you can choose to apply the hair mask once a week or twice a month. The Tresemme Keratin Smooth Deep Smoothing Mask is an excellent choice for those looking for long, shiny and healthy hair.
