Flat and dull?
Dry shampoo is your BFF: Not just for making your hair look less greasy, dry shampoo can add a bit of texture. Massage a small amount (around a teaspoon) into your roots to soak up oils. Bonus: It smells great, too!
Instant lift
Use a fine-tooth comb to gently tease the roots. Not too much, though - we’re going for 'voluminous', not 'bird's nest'!
Blow-dry magic
Flip your head upside down and give your roots a quick blast with a hairdryer.
Frizz!
-
Instead of battling your frizz, why not embrace it? Lightly plait your hair for a relaxed, boho vibe, or throw it up into a cute, messy bun.
-
If your frizz feels more chaotic than chic, smooth a tiny bit of leave-in conditioner or hair oil through the ends to calm things down. Just don’t overdo it, or you’ll go from frizzy to greasy!
Style while you sleep
Pop your hair into loose braids before bed. You’ll wake up with effortless waves and a lot less frizz to contend with in the morning.
Flyaways
-
Spray a little hairspray onto an old toothbrush (or buy one specifically for your hair toolkit) and gently brush them into place. It’s precise and a total game-changer!
-
If you don’t have hairspray handy, rub a tiny amount of hand cream between your fingers and smooth it over the flyaways.
Quick fixes for when you’re in a rush
-
Lightly spritz your hair with water and restyle. It’s like hitting the reset button.
-
Hairbands, scarves, or hats can turn a bad hair day into a chic fashion statement. Plus, they save you tons of time.
-
If your hair is looking a bit messy, make it intentional! Curling the ends can give you a polished look in minutes. Even better, try a curling wand on random sections for a beachy, effortless style.
-
Want a fuller, perkier pony? Use two or three hair ties to create height and volume. It’s simple and works like a charm.
-
If you’re wearing your hair down, gently tug at the roots after styling to add a little natural-looking lift.
-
When all else fails, hats, headbands, and even a sleek bandanna are perfect for hiding hair woes. Plus, they add a fun twist to your outfit!
