Curly Hair Straight - It’s a question that’s been hotly debated for years – curly or straight. Girls with straight hair want curly hair, and girls with curly hair want straight hair. I personally was born with dead straight hair. When I was a little girl I desperately wanted curly hair, so I used to pray for it every night (seriously!). Then one day I got my wish. My hair actually started going curly, and has stayed that way. Well, it was probably just my curly hair genes kicking in (my mom’s side has curly hair). Of course once my hair was curly, I wanted it straight. Yes I know it’s ironic!
In the pic above Taylor Swift’s famous curls have been straightened. Whether you have curly or straight hair you need to look after it.
Here are L’OREAL PARIS’ top 10 haircare tips for picture-perfect hair:
Tip 1
After shampoo and conditioning, be sure to rinse your hair thoroughly. Left-over product dulls hair.
Tip 2
Distributing conditioner through your hair with a wide-toothed comb will leave your hair shiny and tangle-free.
Tip 3
Apply conditioner from mid-lengths to ends. Conditioning your roots will weigh your hair down.
Tip 4
If your hair is really dry, deep-condition at home. Apply conditioner to clean, damp hair; slip on a plastic cap and let your hair absorb for minutes.
Tip 5
Rubbing your hair with a towel when it’s wet can ruffle the cuticle and cause tangles, so gently squeeze out excess water.
Tip 6
Before blow drying, protect your hair with a styling product such as a conditioning milk, cream, or serum.
Tip 7
Move your blow dryer from roots to ends to avoid frizz and shredding your hair cuticles.
Tip 8
For smooth results, brush as you blow dry in the same direction. It will prevent your cuticle from roughing up.
Tip 9
Make sure your hair is thoroughly dry before styling with a flat iron or curling iron to avoid frizz.
Tip 10
For a fuller look, part or style your hair in the opposite direction.
