How To Turn Hair That Looks & Feels Like Straw Into Gorgeous Silky Locks


Do you use your hair straightner or curling tongs every day? Did your hairdresser fry your hair when she dyed it from dark brown to white blonde? Do you stay out in the sun all the time??  If you answer “yes” to any of these questions you’ll probably be suffering with extremely dry and frazzled hair.  But wait.......before you start thinking of shaving all your hair off, I have some great news!!!! Your hair can be saved, just follow the tips below and you’ll notice a difference within a few weeks J

1)      Put your hair straightner, curling irons and hairdryer in a safe place where you can’t access them.  The heat from these tools is the main reason and cause of fried hair. Try letting your hair air dry instead of blow drying or before you go to bed, plait your hair and when you wake in the morning you’ll have gorgeous waves with no heat.

2)      Have your hair trimmed every 4 weeks. Cutting off the split ends will make your hair look thicker and healthier. You don’t need to have a drastic cut, just 1 or 2 inches every 4 weeks should do the trick.

3)      Try not to wash your hair every day. Water can be very drying to your hair and it’s also good to let some of the natural oils that are released from your scalp work their magic on your scalp and hair. If your hair gets super greasy fast, purchase a dry shampoo such as Klorane gentlydry shampoo

4)      Invest in a good deep conditioner. Look for a product that contains keratin and is labelled for dry, damaged hair.  Deep condition your hair twice a week and leave the product in your hair for a good 10 minutes. Once you rinse the product off your hair you’ll instantly feel the difference in your. My personal favourite deep conditioner is the redken extreme strength builder mask

5)      Another big culprit of hair damage is sun damage. Every now and again wear a chic floppy hat or when you’re doing your daily jog/walk wear a sport cap to help keep the sun’s rays off your hair.

If you follow some of these easy tips your hair will thank you for it and you’ll definitely notice a difference.
