If you prefer going for the sleek look and like to pull back your hair into a tight bun or ponytail every day, you are adding stress to your scalp which will ultimately cause thinning. “To get a sleek look overnight without pulling your hair tight, spray your hair with a little water, brush it, and tie it down with a scarf,” suggests cosmetologist Ghanima Abdullah. “For more sheen and hold, smooth in a few drops of natural oil after spraying the water. Then you can make your ponytail a little looser in the morning, but still have it sleek.”
