If you’re reading this, the answer is probably yes. Here are styling shortcuts that will streamline your routine.
Cut Your Hair Time – Some women are slaves to fashion. Even more are held hostage by their hair. They’re constantly rushing to the colorist to beat back grays, fussing with rebellious bangs, waging war against their natural texture—and losing precious hours of their lives.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Here are some common time-wasting traps into which you may have unwittingly fallen, along with hair care tips that will set you free.
Time Drain: You Start Blow-Drying Too Soon – In the morning rush, do you attack your hair with a brush and a dryer immediately after stepping out of the shower? There’s no upside to this. It takes longer to style dripping-wet hair, and hair is less elastic when it’s wet, so it’s more prone to breaking from the tug of the brush.
Speedy Solution – It’s the last bit of moisture left in your hair that provides the set for your hair. With that in mind, start by taking the nozzle off your dryer, flipping your head over, and blowing your hair around, just to get the excess water out. Then let it air-dry while you put on your makeup. When it’s about 80 percent dry, you’re ready to start styling. The exception: If your hair is very coarse, curly, or dry, air-dry by only 25 to 50 percent, to avoid introducing frizz into the equation. To make the most of your blow dry time, tailor your technique to the effect you’re after. If you’re going for volume, dry the roots first; that’s where liftoff happens. For a sleek look, blow all your hair to one side of your head (using it like a giant roller) until dry, then flip and flatten it to the other side.
Get a Brazilian Blowout – Through the use of a Brazilian Super Nutrient Complex and a proprietary polymer system, the Brazilian Blowout actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle.
The end result is smooth, healthy, conditioned hair with radiant shine that decreases your blow dry and style in half the time and looks twice as good. This is not just for curly hair it conditions every type of hair and makes blow dry time half! Every client should have this every 12 weeks for fabulous hair it’s a must!
