Always gently towel dry your hair about 75-80% before blowdrying
This will cut down on time spent overstyling, and from dryer damage. Remember:hair is in it's weakest state when wet, so the more you towel dry and the less you blowdry-the better. Sometimes you simply do not have enough time to fully style your hair before dashing out the door in the morning!
If this is true for you, simply style the area that bothers you the most-the bangs for instance:spend 5 minutes styling the trouble area-'spot styling' if you like, get it to that 'Salon Polish' finish and it will seem (and look) like you spent a lot more time than you actually have on your style. |

Shampoos are NOT created equal!!
If you have troublesome, dry or oily hair-dry scalp, damaged ends-buy yourself 2 different shampoos, 1 off the shelf general use one-and a high end stylist recommended one. Alternate these every time you wash your hair. Shampooing can be the simplest way to ruin your colour.....
Do not wash for 24-48hrs after a colour treatment as the colour is still bonding to the hair. Shampoo is highly corrosive-it is the most passive solvent that we use without thinking about it. I always tell my clients to wash their hair as infrequently as possible-once or twice a week if they can. If you really need to restyle and you just washed yesterday-simply wet the hair down, add a little leave-in conditioner mixed with a little mousse or gel, and blowdry-remember, in this case the 'spot-styling' method will also help. Please email me with your 'Stylewhys' questions, I will gladly help if I can. |
