4. Nice-smelling shampoo

I'm the kind of person who picks a shampoo based on its scent. Of course, this could be wrong, but a good, scented shampoo that matches your hair type can leave your hair smelling great for hours. However, if you really like your shampoo but hate its smell, you could add a few drops of lavender oil or rose water to make it smell better.

5. Leave in conditioner

I must say, leave-in conditioners are such a great invention! Not only do they leave your hair soft, but they also make your hair smell like it has been freshly shampooed. Also, it's a great treatment for frizzy hair.

6. Take care with heat

A fresh blowout is always a good idea, but its consequences are not. If you're going to subject your hair to heat, you'll have to do it smartly in order not to damage your hair. Make sure to tell your hairdresser to lower the heat settings to avoid burning your ends. If you're straightening your hair at home, make sure to go easy on your locks to avoid the burning smell.

7. Lemon juice

Of course, lemon juice can combat a bad flu, but its benefits are way more than that! If you apply some lemon juice to your hair and rinse it before you get out of the shower, your hair will smell great for days.

8. Rose water

Have you ever tried to spritz some rose water on your hair while showering? Well, it's about time you tried this amazing trick! After you wash your hair, apply some rose water directly to your hair, and it will smell great when it dries.

2. Avoid sitting in places full of smokers, as cigarette smoke sticks to the hair's scent.

3. If you don't have hair spray or hair perfume, you can spray a very small spritz of your favorite perfume on your brush before brushing your hair. Don't spray it directly on your hair, so the alcohol doesn't harm it!

4. Before leaving the house, spray perfume on the sides of your neck, as it's considered one of the strongest pulse spots and is close to the hair. You can also spritz at the nape of the neck, right below your hairline.
