Dull 'Do?

To turn your regular shampoo into the ultra-clarifying kind, try this: add up to 1 tsp. baking soda to your usual amount of shampoo and apply like you normally would.  Rinse in cool water to seal your hairs' cuticle and bring out the shine.  After drying, hit the cool button on your blow dryer to "reset" the shine!

Bonus tip: for even more shine, add a drop of lemon juice or lemon oil to your final rinse or if it's available - use a pitcher of snow you've let melt.  The higher acidity of both mixtures makes your hair crazy shiny. 
Just don't do it everyday - it can strip if used too often.
