By Ellie Krupnick “Just sleep with it in a braid,” friends have told me. “Just use some mousse and scrunch it with your hands,” others have suggested. “How about a curling iron?” Nope, nope and nope. As any girl with fine, limp hair like mine knows, the easy fixes that work for wavy or curly hair won’t do their magic on volume-less tresses. Getting bounce takes a careful series of steps as well as non-steps, aka things you should not do. Here are the tricks women with straight, fine hair should know, based on my own hair journey.* DO wash your hair often. Curlier, thicker hair tends to be drier and therefore does best with fewer washes and benefits from the buildup of natural oils. But the minute my fine hair gets oily, it gets weighed down and screams out for a wash. More grease makes it limper. (Just don’t go overboard.) Drying hair DO NOT use conditioner on your roots. Conditioner is used to improve the texture of your hair, smoothing down the hair cuticle so strands are glossy and soft. But some of the ingredients in conditioner, including oils and silicones, can weigh hair down. That’s the last thing your flat hair needs, particularly at the roots. So use conditioner sparingly — I just use it on the bottom of my hair, no higher than the nape of my neck. DO NOT sleep on wet hair. Thin, fine hair doesn’t bounce back into shape like thicker hair, mainly because it doesn’t bounce at all. I’ve found that sleeping on wet hair leaves my hair with weird kinks...

Tip 1: Deal Carefully With Wet Hair Wet hair is very fragile and breaks easily. When wet, the shaft and roots of your hair are more prone to sustaining damage. Don’t be too harsh when shampooing. Breakage begins there. And also avoid brushing immediately after a shower. If you have to then use a shower cap instead. Tip 2: Regular Conditioning Use a moisturizing conditioner after every wash. Never walk out of a shower without it. Missing this step could be the reason why your hair is frizzy. Tip 3: Condition The Right Way Conditioning needs to be done right. Conditioners are formulated to seal in the moisture content in the hair shaft. They are not meant for the scalp. Start conditioning about 2 inches away from your scalp. Too much conditioner on the scalp will only make your scalp excessively oily. Tip 4: Use Same Line Shampoo & Conditioner Choose a shampoo and a conditioner from the same line as it has a similar formulation. These are made for a specific hair type and a specific purpose. It shows better results when you use a single line instead of two individual products. Tip 5: Don’t Over Apply Heat On Hair Avoid using heat on your hair. Heat further strips the moisture content from your hair making it dry and frizzy. When overused, it can also burn your hair. Use iron/curl, straighteners only if necessary and remember to use a hair protectant before! #healthyhair #hairsalonnorthernva #haircolorsalonfairfax #haircolorsalonburke #fairfaxva #burkeva...

RAZOR HAIRCUTS Razor Cuts Q: Tell me the good and the bad about razor cuts. Who should get them; who should not? A: Razor cuts have grown in popularity again as the long straight styles came back into fashion. They are excellent for giving the hair soft-looking straight styles, adding texture and shaping the hair into smooth layered styles. Razor cuts are great for women (and men) with straight to moderately wavy hair, especially if you prefer a softer looking style. Razor-cutting can be used as a technique to actually create the haircut, or simply as a technique to add softness and texture to scissor-cut hairstyles. However, you want to make sure that the stylist who is going to perform a razor cut on you is experienced in using the razor to cut the hair. #hairstylistnova #hairsalonfairfax #shorthairnova #shorthaircuts #razorcuts #razorhaircutnova #shorthairnova...

Just follow these tips. Your Hair Color Experts! DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME First things first: Leave the drastic color changes to the professionals. “It takes a lot of training to do it right,” says Javier. “You could lose a good amount of hair and ruin your hair completely.” Plus, at-home dyes don’t have the strength of ones available at salons, anyway. “You have to be a professional to use hard-core lightening products. And take note: If you already color your hair on a regular bases, We doesn’t recommend going blonde since you’ll just be piling on the damage (previously colored hair will need to be stripped out with bleach or a similar lightener first). LIGHTEN YOUR HAIR IN STAGES If you want a lighter look, it’s best to lift the color in increments, says Javier, who notes that this could take up to four sessions, depending on the hue you’re going for and the damage that that could cause to your strands.
