Tip of the Week :

Your Hair: How to Love It!

We're sure you've heard the saying "The grass is always greener on the other side"...well when it comes to hair and girls, that saying is so true!! We're always looking at other girls' hair, and going "I wish I had her curls or her straight hair....etc....". But what we all need to do is learn how to love our hair! That's right, we need to learn to appreciate our hair the way it is! Sure, we're always going to have those bad hair days, but the world really doesn't notice! Here's some tips for styling your hair.

If you have curly or wavy hair and prefer it to be straight...

Try using Alberto VO5 "Straight Up". It's a crème that helps keeps the frizz away and maintain the straightness of your hair. I can truly attest to this because I use this product all the time. It is a bit pricey but it's worth it to have beautiful hair. It comes in a 4 oz tube and is about five to six dollars at Wal-Mart or Target or other stores like that. Another product by Alberto VO5 is "Sheer Hairdressing". It's similar to the other product only it doesn't straighten but helps to prevent frizz.

This is what I do to tame my wild frizzy hair:

1. After washing and drying the hair I apply the Straight Hair crème.

2. Then I use a hair straightening iron. I section the hair and pull it through a straightener (or curling iron).

3. After this I apply the Hairdressing to maintain the look and keep my hair frizz free.

If you have curly hair...and just want to know how to control it....

Look for an anti-frizz gel (like at Wal-Mart) and after you get out of the shower, put about a quarter-size amount of gel in your hand, tip your head upside down and comb it through your hair with a brush. Now flip your hair back over, scrunch it with your hands and you're ready to go! I have curly hair, and I used to hate it. But now I like it because it's so easy! Once you learn how to control your curls, you'll love 'em!

If you have straight hair...and want some body to it....

After you wash your hair, (using a volumizing shampoo!) dry it and then tipping your head upside down, brush your hair while blow drying it. Use a round brush so that it will curl your hair gently. Now flip you hair back over, "fluff" it and you're ready to go. You might also curl the ends with a curling iron (one inch or larger) ... and then spritz a little hair spray on it so that the curls will last through the day.
