Frizzy Hair -
One of the biggest hair problems amongst women is frizz and for some of us it seems to be even worse during the summer months. Here are some great hair care tips to help fight frizz.
*When drying your hair with a blow dryer, don't flip your head over. Although this is a great way to add volume to hair it also creates frizzy hair by roughing up the cuticle.
*Try hair care products which contain silicone to help smooth hair with out any oily residue.
*Sun can dry hair out causing frizzy hair so switch to a nourishing shampoo. Let shamppo sit for a few minutes before rinsing with cool water.
Fading Hair Color -
Follow these hair care tips to keep your color bright.
*To avoid brown hues from turning orange use a hair mask twice a week.
*Look for hair care products which contain UV filters to protect your hair and hair color.
*Going swimming? Apply a leave in conditioner before entering the pool to keep the copper in the water from penetrating your hair. The copper is what actually turns blond hair green and not the chlorine.
*If possible, wash hair right after swimming in a pool or salt water.
Dull Hair-
Lacking shine? These simple hair care tips can help add lustre to dull locks.
*Look for hair care products that contain botanicals such as Cassia to help smooth strands and add shine.
* Resisue build up is one of the biggest culprits in dull hair. Make sure to keep your hair tools clean as well as remove any excess hair residue. Removing build up from hair is easy with a mix of 1/4 cup vinegar with 1 cup water. Pour it over dry hair and rinse with cool water.
*Shampoo hair when it is dry to help remove excess product from hair. Since water forms a barrier between hair and shampoo, shampooing dry hair will penetrate the hair and do a better job of cleaning build up.
