Let's Chat: How did you build your regimen?

I started out by finding a hair twin (someone with the same texture and/or starting length as me) and then I took a look at their products and mimicked their regimen. As I went further along in my hair journey, I began to learn new things & experiment, which eventually led me to my regimen now.

So how did you learn to build your current regimen?
Was it all from trial and error?
Did you copy from a hair twin?
Or was it recommended?

My (work in progress) airdrying routine revealed!

In last post, I explained some recent changes to my hair routine including the decision to airdry for the duration of the winter season. I made certain to clarify the fact that I once swore off air drying for the rest of my days.

Why?

Because my hair would always end up looking all crazy....
Because I could never get my ends to look right....
Because the middle of my head would dry days later than the rest of my hair....
Because the middle of my head would tangle into a million knots....
Because I could never really produce any type of decent style as the result of an airdry....
Because I never analyzed the airdrying process and how to perfect the results.

For the longest time, airdrying for me meant having to sport tangled unattractive hair until my next wash. Then came the day I realized that this was not the way to live. I knew in my heart of hearts that airdrying could mean healthier lengths. So I had to find a way. It was an absolute necessity!

Over the past few weeks, I've played out various scenarios in my mind of how I can create a decent result from air drying. Some of the scenarios I've tried have worked well. Some of the others were not as I had envisioned. I'll take you through my thought process. This may take a while so go grab a cup of hot cocoa and make yourself comfortable...


For me, the biggest obstacle to decent results was my inability to tame my ends during the drying process. My method of choice was as follows: After washing and conditioning, I would comb the hair back into a ponytail (while damp). Because of the fragile nature of the hair while wet, I used a (very) large tooth comb. I would then grab the loose ponytail and pull the hair up towards my crown and pin to the back of my head. Then I’d grab a satin or silk scarf and tie it around my head as a means on managing the new growth. After a few hours of drying, I would remove the scarf, take down the ponytail and use the cool blast setting to help dry the middle section of my hair.

This picture is when I airdry with one ponytail. Here I've pulled the hair up towards the front of my scalp and secured it with a bobby pin.


In this pic, I actaully parted my hair down the middle and created pigtails. This is one side, the other side of my hair looks exactly the same. Whenever I chose to airdry in pigtails, I pull the hair up towards the sides instead of straight up the middle. When I do it this way, the center of my hair seems to dry a little quicker. Once the hair is secure, I tie a silk scarf and go on my merry little way.


Both of these pics were taken while my hair was still damp.

This method has some obvious pluses and minuses:
Pluses:
+: My once wild and crazy new growth became as tame as a little lamb.
+: I spent much less time then I would have if I were to rollerset the hair.
+: The hair set in a relatively straight pattern. I didn’t have to flatten the big hair I normally experienced with a rollerset.

Minuses:
-Because I dried the middle section of my hair with a hair dryer, the sleekness I created with the satin scarf was compromised. In other words, the middle (and back section) would poof out depending on how moist it was when I loosen the ponytail.
-The large tooth comb I used did not allow for ample detangling power before tying it down. This meant that I still had to contend with viscous tangles later on in the process.
-I never used any direct heat tool once the hair was completely dry, in most cases, I would end up with straight hair in the front and sides and textured hair in the middle and back sections.

I have since modified my routine in order to increase effectiveness. What I’ve done as of late was to create two pigtails instead on one ponytail. With pigtails, I can detangle the two halves more easily in effectively. Once I’ve created the pigtails, I take the loose hair from one side and pin it to the other side of my head and vise versa. What I aim to do with this step is to have the loose hair pinned neatly to my head so that it has some structure in which to dry. It’s the structure that helps to create straighter hair.

I’ve also included a final step to my airdrying process that helps address the thick hair issue that I experienced in the middle and back of my hair. Caruso steam curlers. Please be warned that if you use the steam curlers on damp hair, you will only end up with damper hair. The hair shaft will continue to swell as the moisture is absorbed and you will experience frizz. If you chose to use any type of steam related curlers, YOU MUST WAIT UNTIL THE HAIR IS COMPLETELY DRY.

If steam curlers are not your thing, you can also choose some of these other setting options:
•Large flexi rods to create large curls or to bump the ends.
•Satin covered sponge rollers (again your hair must be 100% dry or frizz will happen).
•The low setting of your flat iron.
•Large Pocahontas pigtail braids.
•Bantu knots
•You can wrap your hair
•You can place your hair in a bun (before bunning, you want to thoroughly detangle and moisturize; otherwise, you may be causing more issues when your shed hairs and your tangles meet.)

My airdrying routine is still a work in progress but I am confident that I can tweak and adjust the routine to create the results I want. Those of you who have managed to put together a process that works, leave a comment and share!

Curly Sue Is In Fashion This Season. Should We Use Curling Irons? Is It Safe And Healthy?


The "Curly Sue" appearance is very fashionable again. Curls became fetish at the autumn Fahion shows. Models' hair was curly at Gucci, Preen, Nina Ricci and Blumarine.

Feminity is still in high demand.

Today notorious curling irons not only do your hair no harm but on the contrary provide it with beauty and health. How did curling irons manage to correct their behaviour?



Name: Satinstyler EC 1 Trademark: Braun

What's new?
Company Braun produced a series of devices with protection and ionisation technologies. Satin Protect in curling irons is presented by covering Ceramic Care that preserves hair from damage. The stream of negative particles Satin Ion preserves hair from electrization and tangling.

Tested:
You can choose the optimum temperature for curling within 5 degrees, and you will never overheat your hair.

The nuance:
There is a separate button for ionisation mode, but you never know if it is on or off.




The Name of the curling irons: VT-2281

Trademark: Vitek

What's new:
Besides a ceramic covering, curling irons have double-sided heating, a spiral surface for hair setting and Aqua Ceramic technology. Thanks to this locks get warm in regular evenly and keep natural moisture.

Tasted:
The Device gets hot in a couple of minutes. Hair is easily twisted round the pivot. Curls look beautiful, accurate and large.

The nuance:
The cable has a revolving connection, therefore it does not twist in «telephone spirals» and does not interfere with your hairdressing.



Name of the curling irons: SalonCurl Ceramic HP4658

Trademark - Philips

What's new:
Recently many curling irons have got a ceramic covering. It has a great influence on hair: the ceramics emits negative ions when heating. They remove a static electricity, thanks to this hair begin to shine healthily.

Tested:
Curling irons are very thin, easy and convenient in use. Get hot and create curls very quickly. However, they are small enough.

The nuance:
It is better to curl your hair using hair spray. Then your curls will be elastic, naughty and lasting.

My devious plan to kick up my hair growth this Winter

Next week will make two months since I've last relaxed. Right now I'm battling a ton of new growth. Its been said that hair grows fastest in the warmer months than at other times of the year. I've decided to keep charging towards my goal this fall/winter by taking purposeful actions to keep the growth a comin'.

Last year I suffered some major set backs with my hair. This year has been all about rejuvenating the health of my hair. Next year will be the year of beautiful hair!

So how am I gonna get there?

I've decided on three actions.

Winter for me means dry itchy scalp. My dandruff is unbearable. One of my chosen remedies for this issue is coconut oil. I read online about the anti fungal properties of this oil and decided to implement this new way of using coconut oil right away!
Not only does rubbing the oil on my scalp help curb my dandruff woes, I'm also subjecting myself to a soothing scalp stimulation at the same time. And we all know what scalp stimulation leads to boys and girls.....growth!

I especially focus on the front areas of my scalp because my of seborrheic dermatitis which can cause dryness and peeling around the hair line. I've massaged my scalp with the oil several times a week for the past several weeks and I already can tell the difference in the new growth and with the flaking.

My new job has me on the road for most of the week. Because of lack of structure, I fell off the vitamin wagon hard. When I worked at an office, I would pack healthy meals and salads for lunch. Now I'm on the road grabbing what I can or eating the decadent food from a nearby restaurant. I'm slowly adapting to life outside an office by pickup up some healthy foods and convenient snacks, but I was struggling to get back to the days when spinach was a staple for me.

I decided to take decisive action in the form of liquid vitamins. No longer will I have an excuse not to take my vitamins. Now I only need to take a capfull of the liquid nourishment once a day. At my previous job, I could pop my vitamins in the privacy of my office. Now many of my lunches take place in a group format. No one would believe that I could consume upwards of seven pills at a time simply for the sake of my overall health. With my liquid formula, I simply pour a little into my drink or I take a spoonful at breakfast. Don't get me wrong, I still consume some pills, but with the liquid vitamin, I can miss a day or two of taking the pill form of my vits, without feeling guilty all over. Not to mention the fact that supplements in liquid form are far more readily absorbable in the body than vitamin pills.

Last but not least, I've stepped back from my weekly rollersetting routine and shifted to more frequent washings and air drying. The reason for taking this action was two-fold. The main reason was because of my ever growing dread for the amount of time a full wash and set required. The other reason I am on a rollersetting hiatus is because I wanted to round out my growth increasing actions with more frequent washes. Its only logical to conclude that the more often I wash my hair, the more growth I could experience. More washing means more conditioning, more conditioning means more moisture, more moisture means less breakage. Along with the increased levels of moisture, my frequent washings also subject my hair to further instances of scalp stimulation as I rub in my
scalp treatments
in with my finger tips.

Airdrying is not my method of choice for styling. I need to clarify that statement by saying that I once loathed airdrying. This new (and temporary) wash routine has forced me to come face to face with my enemy and find a reasonable compromise. We are not where we need to be but we've come a long way from our shaky beginnings. Airdrying, for me means less hair loss during the wash (because of the reduced level of manipulation) which is why I decided that I had to make peace with this styling method. The time I save by airdrying is also a huge plus for me which makes it possible for me to wash twice a week instead of weekly.

These shifts in my hair world are relatively minor but I am extremely confident in the outcomes arising from the changes. Its all about asking yourself if what you are doing now will get you to the results you want. For me, the answer was no so I decided to take action. Once I'm where I need to be, I'll once again shift and evolve with my hair.

Thanks for listening.

For All Those with Thick Hair


Thinning shears(or thinning scissors as I like to call them) should be used to thin out your hair. I suggest Massugu thinning scissors as these scissors have been designed specifically with the beginning hairdresser in mind. These are simply gap-toothed scissors that cut only half the hair. These also come with various gap sizes, depending on what you need cut away.

I've seen how many people struggle with thick hair and I can just imagine the pain it is to manage it, hope this helps.

If you are in the habit of keeping up with the latest fashion trends, then you should have no problem in keeping up with the ‘sedu’ hairstyle – which is now fashionable and popular among most female celebrities and young women.


Yes, female celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Brittney Spears and Jennifer Aniston have made this form of hairstyle a trendy style to wear. What if you are not a celebrity, but want a ‘sedu’ hairstyle like these major celebs?


The answer is not hard to find, but I will tell you just to save time and energy finding the answer. In fact, having a hairdo like this is so easy that it can be done – in the comfort of your home and without the need for a experienced, high-priced hairdresser.


Ok, the first thing that you need to do in styling your hair in this manner is to find and buy a sedu hair straightener. A sedu hair straightener is a must in have your hair done the ‘sedu’ way and a regular hair straightener will not work in this case.


Furthermore, getting your hair done, in this manner, only takes about five minutes. This makes getting a ‘sedu’ hairdo fast and convenient. With that being said, you can have a hairstyle that looks and feels great and at the same time, it would resemble some of the hairstyles worn by famous celebrities.


So, that concludes the final part of this article series on ‘celebrity hairstyles.’ So, until next time – good luck with styling your new hairdo and see you around!

Treating Damaged Hair

I used to wash my hair everyday and color my hair every month. After awhile of doing this, my hair was suddenly becoming extremely dry and frizzy. I mentioned to my stylist about the trouble I was having and she recommended that I stop washing my hair every day.

Initially it was a major adjustment to not shampoo every day. I just hated working out and then not showering. But I began to adjust as the weeks went by. I noticed a significant improvement in the way my hair looked and felt.

My stylist also recommended doing weekly deep conditioning treatments for at least 30 minutes. This further improved the condition of my hair.

If you are experiencing damaged and frizzy hair, maybe you should try shampooing less often and go for more conditioning treatments. It may just do the trick.

Heroes star Hayden Panettiere has many hairstyles to her credit. She has styled her hair curly long, medium length with fringe, curly with half ponytail, in a wavy bun, straight with plaits and wavy long among the most popular ones.


With an oval, oblong, heart shaped face; Hayden looks simply stunning and sexy in her hairstyles, especially in the straight long curls. Some of her styles are easy to maintain like the straight long ones.

Straight long hair with a pulled fringe gives her the looks of an innocent person while with a side ponytail she looks cutest of the lot. The simple pulled back or with a side fringe brings out the real beauty of Hayden's face.


Even curly hair dropped loose in front of her shoulders with half ponytail does wonders for her looks. Whatever style Hayden Panettiere has tried, has made her look gorgeous and attractive. Not all her styles can be possibly done at home. You have to go to a hairstylist to get the celebrity looks of her hairstyle and some can be high on maintenance.

Directions: Spray on damp hair before drying or spray on dry hair before using any heated styling appliance.

Ingredients: Cyclopentasiloxane, Neopentyl Glycol Diethylhexanoate, Diisopropyl Sebacate, Diisopropyl Adipate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Ethylhexyl Methoxycin namate, Ethyl Ester of Hydrolyzed Silk, Fragrance(Parfum), Benzyl Salicylate, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Hydroxyisohexyl 3 -Cyclohexene Carboxaldehyde, Linalool, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Limonene, Eugenol, Citronellol, Hydroxycitronellal, Coumarin.

The Truth: After many recommendations, I decided to purchase this product. I used this on both wet & dry hair and it NEVER leaves your hair weighed down, unlike some other heat protectants. The product is so light, very similar to how an oil sheen goes on your hair. It's like a light mist. The smell is kind of perfum-y but it gives your hair a nice salon finished scent. The silk proteins really infuse the hair shaft and make your flat iron come out silky smooth. I got absolutely NO FRIZZIES. This heat protectant is very good.
