Ladies with short hair should be very vigilant about washing their hair. But the trick is not to over wash your hair. Washing about three days a week works for most people. You want to wash with a shampoo and conditioner that are anti-frizz.  Conditioners that are for smoothing help keep hair looking beautiful and not sticking up where you don’t want it too. As far as styling goes, you want to expose your hair to as little heat as possible. Avoid blow drying and straightening your hair. Let’s be real we can’t get our hair looking fab with no styling. So if you must flat iron, use a heat protectant spray.

Fine haired babes should get your haircut with layers as layers make your hair have more movement. More movement helps increase the look of more volume. You should ignore the myth about using volume zing products at your roots. That doesn’t help give you volume, in fact it makes your hair unless it’s a root volumizing spray. Apply product at the ends of your hair to pump up the volume. The ends of the hair are more absorbent.  Take it easy on the conditioner. Over conditioned hair doesn’t look great on gals with fine locks.

On the other hand, gals with thick locks be sure to hydrate your tresses. Drink a lot of water.

Wash your hair with sulfate free shampoo and conditioner. Deep condition every one to two weeks! Get scalp massages regularly.  Circulation from massage helps circulate blood and other important nutrients to the scalp. Use coconut oil or Jojoba oil.

Stylists that can successfully cut using the twist cutting technique are an amazing asset to gals that have curly hair. Curly hair doesn’t need washed daily, however it does need conditioned regularly.  Be sure to wash your hair in cold water. Cold water helps hair look shiner, locks in moisture and minimizes frizz. Don’t forget- everything you do causes your curly hair to break. So when you are brushing, styling do so very gingerly.
