It came, it saw, and then it conquered the world with its various versions. We’re talking about the trend that has redefined the focus of many routines—the Korean glass hair trend. The beauty of this trend lies in its versatility, and today we’re discussing how you can integrate it into your hairstyling regime, i.e., what you need to achieve the glass hair look.
The glass hair trend involves ensuring your hair looks sleek, glossy, and has an almost glassy finish that radiates high shine. The idea is to have hair so healthy and well-styled that it reflects light like glass. But is this achievable in India’s heat and humidity? With the right products, absolutely!
When it comes to cleansing and conditioning your hair, hydration is key. Kevin Murphy’s Hydrate.Me range provides intense hydration, leaving your locks nourished and moisturised. The rich-textured shampoo contains hair-loving ingredients like kakadu plum, bergamot, and evening primrose oil, ensuring your hair feels soft, smooth, and silky—the perfect starting point for your glass hair journey.
The weightless conditioner locks in moisture, detangles hair, and prevents further damage. Formulated with shea butter and jojoba esters, it deeply hydrates your mane, making it much more manageable.
Looking for that sleek, glassy hair effect? The OSiS+ Glow serum has you covered. Infused with shea butter, this frizz-control serum nourishes and revives dull hair while taming flyaways and smoothing the overall appearance of your strands. It even protects your hair from humidity, making it ideal for Indian tropical weather. Its lightweight texture ensures long-lasting shine.
Enriched with vitamin E, coconut oil, and sunflower seed oil, this serum is the ultimate treatment for glossy hair. It nourishes, adds shine, and instantly boosts hair health, transforming it into a glassy masterpiece. With heat protection up to 230°C, it’s also perfect for use before heat styling.
Formulated with a botanical blend of nourishing oils, Aveda’s Smooth Infusion gives you the perfect blowout with minimal effort. Its anti-humidity formula coats each strand to prevent frizz for up to 72 hours. Additionally, it contains UV filters to protect hair from sun damage. Enriched with plant polymers, Kalahari melon seed, and tamanu oils, this product smooths and conditions cuticles, bringing you closer to your glass hair dreams.
After cleansing, applying serum and protecting your hair from heat and sun damage, it’s time to style. Once you’ve applied your products, comb through your hair with a wide-tooth comb to ensure even distribution. Then, use a hair dryer to create a smooth canvas. The Ikonic Professional Mini Vibe Hair Dryer, though compact, is powerful, offering two speed settings for efficient drying. With a built-in stand and overheat protection, it ensures safety and effectiveness.
Tira Tip: Point the dryer downwards to enhance shine.
Achieving that sleek, glassy hair finish isn’t complete without a flat iron. Divide your hair into small sections and gently glide the straightener through each one for smooth, shiny results. The Alan Truman Tourmaline Ceramic Straightener features black tourmaline ceramic plates for flawless styling with minimal damage. This versatile tool can both straighten and curl your hair. Its temperature monitoring feature protects hair from excessive heat.
Finally, finish off with a lightweight hair oil to amplify the glass-like shine. Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil offers a highly concentrated yet weightless formula that reduces frizz, repairs damage, and leaves your hair looking smooth, silky, and radiant.
