To create amazing waves and texture in hair,
create
your own 'texture spray' with a spray bottle of literally 3/4 water and 1/4
salt. Mix, and spray into dry hair light, and scrunch. Your hair gets instantly
thicker
and wavier. Just don't overdo it. Salt can dry out color, processed and fried
hair.

You're coloring your hair, and you goofed. You
got
hair color on your skin. What to do? Grab your
skin
BufPuf, or pumice stone. On damp skin, rub off
until
your stain is gone. Yes, your skin will be a little
pink,
but by buffing the top layer of the skin, you've
also
removed the hair color stain as well.
4.
Tired of dealing with hair colored stained skin? Apply a layer of vaseline onto
your forehead and temples to keep color from getting onto the skin. Wipe off
when you see the color developing and turning darker. Then apply another layer
to keep color off as your rinse and shampoo.
5.
Need a deep conditioning treatment for your hair
in
a jiffy? Use virgin olive oil. The virgin brand leaves
no
scent and it's the closest to your scalp's natural
oils.
It's also the easiest to wash out of your hair. The
easy
way to apply? Try mixing olive oil with water (3
parts
olive oil to 1 part water) in a spray bottle, and
spritz
on dry hair at night. Or, for help with those dry
ends,
on those pony tail days, coat your palms with a
little
olive oil and coat the ends of dry hair. You hair
will
be super shiny, soft and moisture-rich. Use
during
the day as a shine enhancer.
6.
Can't wash out that oil treatment from your hair?
Apply
shampoo on dry hair first. Work through, then
apply
water, lather and rinse. Repeat if necessary.
7.
Damaged, dry hair? Conditioner not doing the
trick?
Maybe it's how you're applying it. Instead of
applying
your conditioner to wet hair, wait for a lazy
day
or a lonely night. Then on dry hair, saturate your hair with a deep penetrating
conditioner and let soak in. Then leave on overnight, or all day (a ponytailed
baseball
hat look works the best.) Shampoo the next morning. All those frizzies, dry
ends and straw like
hair
will be banished.
8.
Have left over hair conditioner from those hair
color
kits? Save them for your next hair color
application.
What do you do with them? Apply a thin
layer
of the conditioner around your forehead and
hairline
to prevent hair color from staining your skin.
When
you're done applying color, just wipe off.
9.
Forgot your shaving lotion? In a pinch, use hair conditioner, body lotion or
hair styling cream. Apply, shave and rinse when you're done.
10.
Hair product not quite doing what you want it to do? Do what the pros do. Mix
two together. Mix a mousse with a dab of styling gel, or a styling cream
with a dot of hair gloss. Mix and match and create your own super
styling combo.
11.
Trick of the trade. Always apply a quarter size of styling product. That's all
you need, really. And apply from the ends up, unless it's a root lift styling
product. Then that goes into the scalp.more...
