 We all go through
it. From the yucky super-humid days when nothing
we do with our hair will possibly look right to
the rainy Mondays when we just don't care, to
the eve of our hot date when we go through eight
hairstyles before opting to just let the hair
run wild, sometimes a bad hair day can very
easily become a bad hair week without fair
warning. The weather may be rainy and humid all
week long, the hairstylist may have chopped our
locks entirely the wrong way, but despite our
dismay, life does go on.
Check out the scenarios
below for a quick fix on unruly hair, flat hair,
whatever hair:
Scenario #1 Business Boo-Boo Fixer Upper
Its not even 8:30 in the morning and things
couldn't be much worse. You slept through your
alarm and you've got a major business
presentation in 35 minutes. After taking the
fastest shower of your life, you've got five
minutes to throw on your makeup and do something
with your wet hair. Think fast!
Remembering back to your childhood days, think
about what your mother used to do for you when
you needed to look nice for school. Be it
picture day or another special occasion, chances
are you've got a special hair trick up your
sleeve that you've completely forgotten! Mine
happens to be your plain old run of the mill
braid. Separate your hair into three sections,
alternately pulling one over the other until
you've created an attractive plait in no time!
For a special feminine touch, leave out a tiny
strand of hair at your crown, near your ear or
at the nape of your neck. (To save time, turn
your curling iron on prior to braiding your
hair.) Create a loose curl here or there to add
an elegant element to your professional-looking
style.
Scenario #2 Last-Minute Lovely Locks
Whether its a first date with a new hottie
or a special occasion with your long-term beau,
looking like the gorgeous bombshell you are is
nonnegotiable! But looking fabulous doesn't have
to take an eternity Rely on a few quick and
easy hair care tips to get you going.
For a seductive look, rely on a daring hairstyle
that nicely displays a bare neck. Invite sweet
kisses on your soft skin by sweeping your hair
up into a makeshift French twist with a set of
ornate chopsticks or a delicate, pretty hairpin.
Even if your hair is still wet, it should be
responsive to these facile styles. And while
wearing hair up can be completely tantalizing,
setting free your flowing locks might just
ignite some wild desire in your date. Tame your
tresses with a gentle anti-frizz product that
wont sticky your hair or leave a visible
residue.
For naturally curly babes, rub some gel or a
small amount of styling product between your
hands and scrunch your curls into submission.
Scenario #3 Tiresome Tresses Crave
Revitalization
Sick of the same old ponytail? Tired of
yawn everlasting straight hair? Mix things up
a bit by adding some fancy accents to your
inventory! Invest in some colorful hair scarves,
headbands, crab claw clips, hairpins, chopsticks
and other fun hair accessories. You can get a
nice selection of hair goodies at the dollar
store, grocery store, drugstore and countless
other venues.
By spending only $10 or $15, you can completely
revamp your hair without going to any great
coloring or styling lengths. Pick out a few neat
items and use them from time to time instead of
battling your hair into submission with styling
products and appliances. Dont have time to blow
dry your mane? Fret not! Merely twist your hair
up and clip it to your head with one of your new
fashion accessories! When all else fails, get
comfy. Throw on a pair of jeans, your favorite
hooded sweatshirt and a hat!
