Frizzy Hair Tips 

We all know by now that using a conditioner is necessary to control frizzy hair. The trick is to leave the conditioner on for a few minutes before rinsing it out. If you have extra time, try wrapping your hair in a towel with the conditioner on and let your hair soak for about 10-15 minutes. Then rinse it out. A good conditioner to use would be Smooth Infusion Conditioner. 

When you're done, wrap your hair in a towel for several minutes to get out the access water instead of rubbing the towel over your head. Both towel rubbing and brushes lead to hair breakage and make it much more vulnerable to the frizzies.

Try just putting on some mousse and comb it in. Let air dry and don't run your fingers or a comb through it until it's completely dry. Using a blow dryer in hot weather will probably make the problem worse. If you want your hair straight and that's the only way you can get it that way, then by all means, use the dryer. Just use the cool setting and don't use it every day.

Don't wash your hair every day. Your natural oils help tame the frizz.

If you wash your hair in the mornings, you're not going to have time for all of this and you will have to skip leaving it in the towel. Just follow the other steps or consider doing this in the afternoon so that it's dry before you go to bed.

A good cut is the best tactic to prevent frizzy hair and you can ask your stylist to use thinning scissors to thin your hair if it is too thick. This should make it much more manageable and tame it down.

Leave-in conditioners that you can spray on will often help dry and damaged hair. You may need to reapply it later on in the day. What works for one person does not necessarily work for the next because everyone has different lifestyles and climates. It's all trial and error.

If, in spite of all your efforts to stop your hair from becoming frizzy, and it's still a mess, always have hair accessories on hand to pull it back for a quick fix.

Finally, one last tip. Various hot oil treatments for dry and damaged hair can give you some temporary control to frizzy hair, but you'll probably need to use them weekly or biweekly.

4 Fall Hot Hair Tips


1. Stop shampooing every day. The chemicals within shampoo can dry out your scalp; it’s best to shampoo three to four times a week. On the off days, wash hair with water and condition only the ends.

2. Designate a deep-conditioning day. Since we all love our hair tools and styling, it’s really important to deep-condition once a week. This will keep your ends from splitting and fraying, keeping that dried-out look away!

3. Remember the prep step. Before heat styling, always use a spray that protects hair against damage, and use use tools that are designed specifically to minimize heat damage with protective coating and an ionic generator.

4. Choose pretty-hair foods. Healthy, strong hair surprisingly has a lot to do with our diet. To get the healthiest hair, it's best to eat foods high in protein and omega fatty acids, such as salmon, nuts, eggs, and cheese.

5 Ways to Have Great Hair


1. Wash your hair correctly. Note: If you can, try not to wash your hair every day. Daily baths and showers will strip your hair of its natural oils.
2. Dry your hair in a careful manner. Blow dryers can be more benefiting than air-drying if you use them correctly. When you blow dry your hair, put it on a cool setting and hold distance it away to protect it from any heat. If you hold the blow dryer too close, the water in your hair can begin to boil. This is why hair dryers are known to be bad, but if you use it correctly it is very good. If you can, avoid drying your hair with heat as much as you can; it will only age your hair.
3. Avoid brushing your hair while it's wet. Wet hair is stretchier and has a tendency to break. Also, don't brush your hair too much. People say that brushing your hair 100 strokes a day will make it smoother -- but it will only cause breakage to your hair.
4.Go easy on styling products. Styling products can dry your scalp, if you use it directly at the scalp. Try not to use it often, but if you must, apply to hair strands and not the scalp. Then, style your hair at most 4 times a week to avoid damaging it.
5.Accessorize your healthy, gorgeous hair. Clips or barrettes can compliment beautiful hair. Coordinate them with your outfits or your personality. If you use elastics, use fabric-covered elastics to prevent breakage and tangles.

How to Give Boring Hair More Volume


1. Whatever your hair type, lather up with a clarifying shampoo weekly, then immediately replenish lost moisture and elasticity (the bounce-factor that's key to scoring swingy strands) with a thickening rinse-out conditioner.

2. Get to the root of the problem. Most high class stylist prefer a texturizing powder or spray over liquid lifters like hairspray.

3. Chill out—with the blowdryer. Using low or medium heats causes the cuticle [a hair's outer layer] to swell up and look fuller, while really high heat makes it collapse.

4. Steer clear of metal and plastic brushes when styling—opt for a mix of natural fibers and nylon bristles instead. Fine hair is more fragile and susceptible to breakage.

5. Amp it up. Boost volume with this quick fix: Spray an aerosol hairspray or dry shampoo onto your crown—section by section—then brush hair straight up into a high ponytail so the roots are vertical. Spray the base again and leave hair up for 10 minutes.

The Thermal Age 

Buying a flat iron can be a great investment or a complete regret. There really is no point in buying the cheapest iron you can find or one that just looks good. You should treat this purchase as you would that of a car, you are going to need to get some good mileage out of it so take it for a test drive first. 

In this now thermal age of styling, its imperative that you follow some simple rules in order to get the best results with the least damage to your hair.

Make sure your hair is clean and completely dry before you begin your styling session (unless you are using a wet-to-dry iron). Shampoo and Condition your hair with professional products that are moisture-rich or developed specifically for thermal styling. Any products from a previous styling will cause a build up, which if ironed will only damage your hair. Styling your hair while damp will not get the desired effect and you will literally "cook" your hair, so make sure it is totally dry. A leave-in conditioner is a good idea at this point for extra protection and moisture.

Apply a thermal protector before you begin to style. This is vital to the health of your hair, thermal protectors act as a barrier and prevent burning and breaking of the hair as well as adding to the overall shine. Ask your stylist to recommend one suitable for your hair. Do not over apply the product either as this can ruin your styling process, generally you only need small amounts.
