Quick
Tips for Manageable Hair....
Sleek and sexy
hairstyles don’t have to take hours to create.
If you are comfortable working with your hair,
you can design beautiful new styles for yourself
in just minutes. Once you know how your hair
responds to heat, humidity, rain, styling
products and other factors, you can quickly and
easily style your hair for any occasion.
Even if you don’t know what to expect from your
hair, try these unbeatable tips for a quick fix
or a lasting style!
Washing and Drying Hair
Tips:
 |
Avoid over-washing
your hair. If you can stand it, try not
to wash your hair with shampoo every
single day. For days that you do not
wash your hair, apply a fragrant mist
designed especially to refresh tresses.
|
 |
Don’t apply
shampoo directly to the top of your
head. Apply shampoo from the nape of the
neck first, and then work it through the
rest of your hair.
|
 |
Distribute
cleansing and styling products evenly
through your hair. When you apply
conditioner, use a comb to spread the
product evenly through your hair.
|
 |
Lessen trauma to
your hair. Try to avoid wrapping your
hair in a towel and leaving it twisted
up on your head for long. It may be
convenient, but it can damage your hair.
|
 |
Avoid blow-drying
your hair everyday. Allow your hair to
dry naturally whenever possible, whether
you shower at night or let your hair dry
over the weekend.
|
Hair Styling Tips:
 |
Accessorize! On
days when you just don’t have time, go
for a ponytail or a headband. Realize
that your hair can look really cute even
if you don’t spend a long time styling
it. |
 |
Experiment with
color. If you find yourself constantly
bored with your hair, a new color might
be all you need to add some zest to your
appearance. Still a little wary of dying
your hair? Try a brand that washes out
in eight shampoos.
|
 |
Opt for a new
haircut. Colors and accessories do lend
a lot to a hairstyle; however, haircuts
are the true standby for a new look.
|
 |
Select styling
tools to vary your look. Curling irons,
flatirons, combs, pins, clips and an
assortment of brushes offer nice
diversity for hairstyles.
|
 |
If all else fails,
wear it straight. If you don’t feel like
fighting with your hair today, wear it
down. For hair that behaves rather well,
consider letting your hair dry
naturally. If your hair requires more
maintenance, apply a gentle styling
product to prevent frizzy hair.
Remember, a sexy, straight hairstyle can
be perfect with any outfit, for any
occasion. |
