::HOT HAIR TIPS::

Ways to maintain top condition

1.                If you plan to wear your hair up, make sure you wash it the night before. Squeaky-clean hair has less hold

         and is more difficult to style.

2.                Always use a shampoo and conditioner when washing your hair. Shampoo opens up the hair cuticle to clean

         it, conditioner detangles the hair and closes the cuticle to smooth it down.

3.                Leave-in conditioners are great for getting rid of frizzy or flyaway hair. Make sure the formulation is light

         so that it doesn’t overburden the hair.

4.                Hair that is brittle and breaks easily needs to be strengthened by products which contain protein. Dry hair

         needs products which provide moisture or a combination of protein and moisture.

General hair knowledge

5.                A good hairdresser is essential for fantastic hair.

6.                Ask for advice from your hairdresser. Make sure they are progressive.

7.                When it comes to hair, be an individual! Remember there is no one ideal shape, style, colour or hair type.

8.                Make sure your hairdresser takes advantage of the advances in hair technology. Keep a look out for new

         products and techniques and ask your hairdresser about them.

9.                When you’ve just had your hair done, stand up and look at your entire profile not just the back and sides of

         your head.

10.           If you use a blow-dryer or curling tongs, use products that form a heat barrier on the hair to protect it and

         keep it in optimum condition.

Basic care

11.           Always use a cool to medium setting on your hair-dryer. If you use a high setting for long periods the heat

         will dry out and burn your hair.

12.           Never brush wet hair because it stretches the hair and can cause split ends. If you do, use a wide-tooth

         comb.

13.           You are what you eat. Make sure you drink plenty of water, eat lots of fruit and veggies, and include protein

         in your diet – to keep your hair looking great.

14.           Use specialty products if you suffer from scalp problems and dandruff.

15.           If your scalp is prone to be oily, remember to shampoo and condition with luke warm water only.

16.           Trim your hair every six to eight weeks. Make sure you follow a hair care regime to keep your hair in tiptop

         condition.
