We all know the adverts from that hair product company, with ladies who have silky, full manes. Since that level of styling reached our TV screens and magazines, most women with long hair have tried by all means to keep their hair looking as lively and perfect as possible. It’s one thing to go to the salon for a ladies blow dry and style on your long hair, but it’s a different ball game getting the results to last. Fortunately, you don’t have to become an overnight pro. We have all the pointers you need.
Tip #1 – Stop Fidgeting With it or Running Your Fingers Through It
It’s tempting to keep touching your hair when it’s fresh from the salon because it feels light and smooth. We get it! But all that touching leaves heavy particles from your hands, which flatten the bouncy body.
Tip #2 – Sleep With Your Hair Tied Up Loosely On Top Of Your Head
You want to ensure that you keep your hair controlled, even as you toss and turn at night. A simple trick to protect the volume you get from a blow-dry is to sleep with your hair tied loosely at the top of your head to help retain its shape.
Tip #3 – Reduce the Temperature While You Take Showers
Heat and moisture are enemies to any blowout. No matter how hot you like your showers, you may have to turn them down a notch and keep them brief so that your hair doesn’t get too damp from the steam.
Tip #4 – Get a Silk Cover for Your Pillow
In addition to tying your hair up, a silk pillowcase is the ultimate solution for post-blow out slumber. Peaceful sleep makes you look even better, so you’ll also want to invest in this for the bigger picture.
Tip #5 – Use Dry Shampoo to Keep It Looking & Smelling Brand New
In the spirit of avoiding too much moisture in your hair, dry shampoo is the answer. It gets rid of accumulated sweat and oil without washing out the bounce. This is great for the look, feel and smell of the style.
Extra Tip – Book Regular Appointments With Your Stylist
You can only do so much on your own. Eventually, the ladies blow dry on your long hair will wear out. The best way to revive it is by visiting a professional every other week. This will keep you looking picture-perfect around the clock.
