Seasonal Hair

Posted by Price Attack on February 28, 2012 None comments

Why is it that whenever someone interesting walks into the room, the first place our hands go is to our hair? Well, there are probably some deep psychological reasons, but all we need to know is how to look after it when the cold winds come blazing.

When your hair is all dried out from compulsive washing during the heat season, the last thing it needs is the whipping winds during autumn. To look after your hair during this change in season, make sure you compliment your hair by re-hydrating and replenishing with moisture-based hair products. If you’re straightening your hair, autumn and winter can be even more frustrating. Be sure to use heat-protecting products! The last thing one needs is hair as static as a balloon.

I know we’ve all lusted after the hair products standing tall and glamorous in hair salons to solve these problems, but- the price! It’s completely understandable that one may think that it might be too expensive to find hair care products that actually work, but you’ll always manage to find professional standard hair products at your local Price Attack that work wonders without making you feel guilty for slashing on beauty products!

BlowdryingCurly hair can be one of the easiest and most effortless ways to style your hair. Unfortunately, it can also be your own worst enemy. Whether natural or through a perm, there are a few specific tips for when it comes to caring for curly hair. Let’s take a look at some of the easiest ways to manage your curly hair.

Find a good stylist – the right stylist can work wonders to your hair as well as give you helpful tips on hair care and hair products. Visit your local Price Attack hair salon for more information.

Eliminate from daily use – blowdrying, hair brushes, straighteners, harsh chemical treatments and elastic bands. Blowdrying is fine for quick drying, but make sure to use a cold setting and appropriate hair care product (leave in conditioner etc.), use fingers instead of a hair brush, but if need be brush hair when wet and rinse with water after brushing to eliminate the chance of frizz.

Wash with cold water – cold water helps to make hair shinier, locks in moistures and reduces frizz – in essence, single handedly tackling the three major problems of curly hair.

Hair products – avoid excessive use of hair products. This means when using gel or mousse, rub your hands together to heat the product which will help distribute it evenly. Avoid shampooing everyday (conditioning on the other hand is ok). Of course, there are a number of hair care products that are extremely useful for curly hair. For more information visit your local Price Attack store or visit www.priceattack.com.au

Embrace the curls – curly hair is nothing to be ashamed of. If anything it’s more of a blessing than a burden. Unique looks, more time saving (if you cut down on those bad habits), less need for hair products and haircuts last longer!
