 If
you are left with dye on your skin after colouring, put some
milk on cotton wool and rub gently on the skin to remove any
stains.
A thorough rinse with soda water helps hair to really bring out
that natural shine.
White wine enhances shine and colour in blonde hair. So if you
have blonde highlights that have dulled you could freshen them
by having a white wine rinse.
Use black mascara to cover the odd grey hair in dark hair.

 Rinse
out conditioner with cold water. It is refreshing and adds extra
shine.
If your hair is frizzy, don't have too many layers. Have a few
longish ones to allow hair to flow.
Concentrate use of conditioner on ends of your hair and avoid the
roots. Heat opens up the cuticles allowing the conditioner to
penetrate the hair shaft. Use a hot towel over the conditioner
before rinsing.
If you use a hair-mask, wrap a cling film around your head. This
retains heat and makes masks more effective.
A tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice in the last rinse is good
for greasy hair.
Use a leave-in conditioner before heat styling of hair as it is
less damaging.
Beer gives added body when used on damp hair before blow-drying.
To voluminize your hair, turn your head upside down and finger
dry with dryer.
If your hair is fine and limp, enhance it with highlights or dual
tone to help create an illusion of more body.
Always use a diffuser when blow-drying curly hair. This will help
control the frizz.
It is essential to have a good cut to build volume. You can get
extra body with clever layering.
For a quick hair freshener, when you can’t shampoo it, put a cold
clean stocking over your brush and run it through your hair to
remove surface dust.
Great looking hair isn't a mystery. These handy hints will help
you to keep hair manageable and healthy. |
