The heat and the humidity are making a mean mess of your hair. Wondering
how to beat the tress stress? Squeeze in some pamper time as a quick
beauty booster. And shine, the cool and confident way. Here are five
fix-its to beat your hair woes...
1. Facing build-up blues with droopy locks? Most hair care products that
promise to lock in moisture leave behind residue even after rinsing. Be
savvy. Make space in your vanity caddy for a mild shampoo that cleanses
your hair to give it an unbeatable shine. About a quarter-sized dollop or
a little more for longer hair works great. Dilute, massage gently onto
your wet scalp and rinse well. Follow up with conditioner, applying along
the hair shafts and wash off
2. Losing sleep over designer dandruff? Grab a dual proposition shampoo
to nourish your hair. Choose a shampoo that removes both grease and
embarrassing white flecks without drying your locks. And use cold water.
Your scalp secretes nourishing oils that dissolve in warm water and get
washed away. Cold water strengthens hair scales, making them lie flat
and preventing frizzing.
3. A knotty affair? Remove tangles from your hair before leaping into
the shower. Use a wide toothed comb, not a hairbrush. If you have long
locks, divide into sections and let them hang loose while shampooing.
Soaking your head in the tub to rinse off is avoidable as residue
remains. Rinse under
running water and comb simultaneously.
4. Dry mane, or worse, toasted tresses? Cool and confident is the
unbeatable mantra. Remember, when you use a hair dryer, set it on high
airflow and low heat, holding the nozzle a few inches away. This leaves
your hair soft, light and manageable without stripping it of moisture.
Avoid ironing your locks and using styling solutions. To combat the sun,
power your crowning glory with a shampoo that contains nourishing Vita
ACE
5. In between hair styles? So you're neither here nor there. That's the
long and short of it. Accessorise generously. Tame wild bangs using a
bandeau. Make way for dressy tresses and funky braids using crystal hair
sticks, beaded clips, handcrafted hair forks, twinkling bobby pins and
sassy pronged butterflies . In exciting variations in colours and shapes.
Go ahead. Indulge, sparkle and stun. Looking fantastic was never this
easy! |
