10 Tips On How To Get Great Hair Days
10. Ten Tips on How to Get Great Hair Days
One dream that every woman cherishes is of fabulous hair. She wants all eyes reverted and all heads turned towards her hair in awe and jealousy.
If you also want to have that ‘just out of the salon’ look then update yourself about the commandments of control and you will be the one whose hairlooks will make all women go green in the eyes!
1. Use Rollers Right
Rollers, such as hot rollers, Velcro or self-adhering ones, are the in-thing these days. Use unheated rollers on damp hair. Wait for the hair to be barely damp, roll up rollers, keeping broadest ones at the top. Let the hair dry and then unwind rollers carefully.
In case of hot rollers, allow the rollers to cool. Now gently remove them. With the help of your fingers, gently comb your hair to open the curls slightly. This will give a more bouncy and curly look. Lastly add a small measure of hair or finishing spray and you are ready with that sexy style!
2. Get Regular Trims
Regular trims are essential to avoid the bad hair day. Gap between two trims should not be more than 3 to 4 weeks. Do not go lazy on trimming even if you growing your hair longer. Gel smoothens and flips up ends of hair, which have lost their shape in the process of growing.
3. Start with a Great Cut
Falling right into place and simple to style - this is the definition of a great cut. The more time the hairdresser spends in finishing your hair, the less chances you have of re-creating that look on your own.
A good cut complements your hair texture and type, manages your hair even on windy days and surely controls that irritating frizz. Another way to recognize a good cut is that even after six weeks, it still is easy to style. Result - gap between trims becomes longer. Inform the stylist about the drawbacks of your hair. Educate yourself about the solutions.
4. Think Roots First
Concentrating most of the products at the roots and blow-drying root area first give you more volume and height.
5. Don't Fight Nature Too Much
Do not try to fool nature. Perming and bleaching finally do affect the hair because of presence of chemicals in the both the processes. So, be a little innovative and look for alternatives to such harmful processes.
6. Don't Overuse Products
How much product you
should use depends on the density, length and texture of your hair. A few products give you control. However, too many may lose your control over your hair.
Compared to super-hold gel, one can use lots more of mousse. Start with small quantities, gradually increasing depending upon the feedback your hair gives. Use a drop or two of pomades, shiners and glossers. Give up finishers, conditioners and volumizers.
Remember, you can always add more!
7. Add Body
Limp, flat lifeless hair days are considered as bad hair days. Do you want to add body to your hair? Bend at waist, start drying your freshly washed hair as you finger style it. When half of the moisture has disappeared, add gel or mousse. Finally use a large-toothed comb or vent brush to lift the hair. If it is humid, use a tiny amount of mousse. Finger style it into dry hair.
8. Tame That Cowlick
Cowlicks are mostly at the back crown area or at the hairline. A hairline cowlick can look smart when you lift it to get more height, or brush hair in the opposite direction. Little gel before drying gives it the wanted look.
In case of back crown cowlick, use hot rollers only for that portion. For short hair, two rollers are set in alternating directions. Once rollers have cooled, backcomb the area, smoothen the surface and comb the ends.
9. Easy Up do
The golden rule for a great up do is to gather all your hair together high and neatly high enough on your head. Carefully rolling or wrapping it in the desired direction hide the pins under a seam or a bun.
10. Be Prepared
A small bottle of water can be handy for misting the hair if it leaves its setting by midday. If it is humid, carry a small size of a frizz control product. Getting a shorter cut, a body perm or a root perm can control hair limping in humid weather.
Separated curls are trendy and convenient. Wrap your long hair into an up do during the day; when you undo it, it will fall in great volume.
Nowadays, there are many easy to carry purse-sized curling irons and setting tools. Use them for quick touchups.
