Rather than applying the product directly onto her roots, she massaged it between her hands for a few seconds then ran it through her hair.
She claims this ‘breaks down all oils and dirt’, leaving the hair feeling fresher for longer.
‘A lot of people don’t do this but it’s such a simple thing that can be a game changer,’ 그녀가 말했다.
‘Most have found this to be more effective for eliminating oily hair than directly applying it.’
In a separate video, she shared a lesser-known tip when conditioning your hair.
While in the shower you should always ‘ring out’ the water from the ends before applying the product.
The Aussie Rapunzel claims this allows the conditioner to ‘penetrate’ the strands and leave the hair feeling ‘soft and silky’.
‘I also leave my conditioner on for at least three minutes,’ she said in the clip.

She admits her haircare is ‘high maintenance’ as she has to be ‘gentle and patience’ when brushing it and also implements heatless hair styling tactics found on social media.
‘My hair is actually very heavy so it’s hard to style but my go-to hairstyles are a slick back ponytail or recently I have been trying heat-less curls using a robe tie to curl my hair,’ 그녀가 말했다.
The trick involves wrapping damp hair around a thin robe tie and leaving it to set for a few hours to create the curl formation.
‘The results are amazing and it is the only way I can get curls to hold all day.’
