Personal Hair Care Tips + Maria Nila Product Recommendations

Healthy, beautiful hair starts with the right care—and the right products. Whether you’re trying to maintain color, fight frizz, or keep your hair hydrated, using high-quality, vegan, sulfate-, and paraben-free products like Maria Nila can make all the difference. Here are my top personal hair care tips, along with some of my favorite Maria Nila recommendations to keep your hair looking and feeling its best!

1. Use the Right Products for Your Hair Type

Not all hair is the same, so your routine should be customized to your hair’s needs.

• Fine or oily hair? Try the Maria Nila Pure Volume Shampoo & Conditioner for lightweight hydration and extra body.

• Dry or frizzy hair? The Maria Nila True Soft Shampoo & Conditioner will add moisture without weighing your hair down.

• Curly or coarse hair? The Maria Nila Coils & Curls Co-Wash is perfect for keeping curls soft, defined, and frizz-free.

2. Don’t Overwash Your Hair

Washing too often can strip natural oils, leaving your hair dry and brittle. Aim for every 2–3 days, and refresh in between with Maria Nila Invisidry Shampoo—a lightweight dry shampoo that absorbs oil without leaving a chalky residue.

3. Trim Regularly

Regular trims (every 6–8 weeks) help prevent split ends and keep your hair looking healthy. Between trims, using Maria Nila Structure Repair Leave-In Cream can help strengthen damaged ends and prevent breakage.

4. Always Use Heat Protection

If you love heat styling, protect your hair! Before using a blow dryer, curling iron, or straightener, apply Maria Nila Cream Heat Spray to guard against heat damage while adding softness and shine.

5. Hydrate & Deep Condition Weekly

Dry hair is more prone to breakage, so give it some extra love with a deep conditioning treatment.

• For intense hydration: Try the Maria Nila True Soft Masque—perfect for dry or frizzy hair.

• For color-treated hair: The Maria Nila Colour Refresh Masks (available in various shades) not only condition but also refresh your hair color between salon visits.

• For damaged hair: The Maria Nila Structure Repair Masque helps restore strength and elasticity.

6. Be Gentle When Brushing

Wet hair is delicate, so always use a wide-tooth comb or a detangling brush. For extra slip and protection, apply Maria Nila Quick Dry Heat Spray before brushing—it not only speeds up drying time but also reduces tangles.

7. Sleep on a Silk Pillowcase

Cotton pillowcases can cause friction, leading to frizz and breakage. A silk or satin pillowcase helps your hair glide smoothly, keeping it healthier and your style lasting longer.

8. Eat a Hair-Healthy Diet

Your hair’s health starts from within! Eating foods rich in biotin, omega-3s, and vitamins A & E (like salmon, nuts, eggs, and leafy greens) can promote stronger, shinier hair. Pair a good diet with Maria Nila Head & Hair Heal Shampoo & Conditioner, which promote scalp health and hair growth.

9. Avoid Tight Ponytails & Harsh Hair Ties

Tight hairstyles can cause stress on your scalp and lead to hair breakage. Instead, use soft scrunchies or Maria Nila Styling Cream to slick back your hair without damaging it.

10. Let Your Natural Hair Shine

Give your hair a break from heat styling and embrace its natural texture! For a natural air-dried look, try Maria Nila Ocean Spray for beachy waves or Maria Nila Salty Cream for a soft, effortless texture.
