Dry, dull hair help

This is a problem, for 80% of us. Mine, too. The humidity is the number one factor that provokes your hair to be drier. Leave-in masks do wonders with your hair.

Besides that, you can be your own boss, and go straight into the kitchen, to prepare your own mask Olive and Coconut oil, combined with a few drops of lemon juice are the perfect “vitamin bomb” for your hair.

Perfect curls tip

There are several problems with curls.

If your curls are not shaped, formed and defined, you should use a creme for activating curls.

So, with a curling creme, you can do great, actually. Even on “washing day” if something came up, and suddenly you don’t have time to wash it, you can spray your hair with water, and add a crème.

As a result, you’ll have defined and shiny curls, beautifully formed and separated. Maybe even better than after washing. So, make sure you add a crème properly, separating your hair strands with fingers, and massaging the crème into your curls. For more volume do it upside down. When you go up, you’ll see the incredible volume all over your hair. That is exactly how your hair should look!

If you like to control the volume, press your hair from the top, until the ends. This tip is awesome for unmanageable/coarse/curly hair.

Too much volume?

First of all, you have to comb your hair. Adding some serum or natural oil after, is the best thing to do.

For a “salon” look effect, grab the hairdryer, and comb your hair while blow-drying. Do it slowly, with warm air, directing it down. As a result, you’ll have smoothed and silky hair. You can do dry hair blow dry, just spray with water a couple of times before this blow-drying, just to add more moisture in your hair, and stop the frizz.

Twice a month, you can surprise your hair with a natural mask, made of smashed avocado with three tablespoons of Coconut oil. Blend the mixture until you have a creamy-paste and massage it all over your hair. Comb it for a great spreading everywhere. Shampoo your hair after one hour.

Short hair quick tips

Pixie ladies, you must have some little styling helpers around you. A matt effect paste or hairspray are your best friends. Play with your hair, be creative and innovative.

Spray your hair with water, and spread the crème with your fingers. Make a mess, and you are ready to go! Or, you can shampoo your hair, dry about 80%, actually when you feel it’s almost dry, spread the crème, and dry it completely.
