If you have Normal Hair:

Isn't it nice to have something normal!?

 

 

You have Normal Hair, which means not too curly or thick, and not too straight or thin. So here's some great tips for taking care of your normal type of hair.

 

WASH: All hair gets drier the older we get, so what does this mean? You don't need to wash it as often if you are past your 20's. A good shampoo with hydrators such as argan oil adds shine without buildup (what weighs down the hair's natural volume). When rinsing out conditioner, stop before the ends feel 'squeaky clean'. A little left behind (ends only!) creates a natural frizz preventer while moisturizing the ends. A great leave in conditioner for this type of hair that I love is Rusk Smoother Leave In. I use this on my girl's hair a lot, since they have this type of hair, and it's harder for them to get the right amount of conditioner in and rinsed out.

 

 

STYLE: For your hair, fighting a frizz is the most common complaint. If you live in a humid climate, the humidity gets sucked into your hair strands, making the hair cuticle expand and frizz. So, if your hair is well hydrated, it draws less water from the air, and there is less frizz. Bring on the moisture! Skip gels or sprays that have dehydrating alcohol as an ingredient. Try a smoothing serum (I love Biolage's Exquisite Hair oil) or styling cream instead, depending on your hair curvature. Curls need something a little richer and more hydrating than a straighter lock.

 

Your BEST CUT: It's always good to go to a hair appointment with hair as 'natural' as possible (air dried is best), so your hairdresser can see the real wave in your hair. It's always a good idea to have a cut that fits your natural hair wave, and then alter it after (straightening or curling it with irons). This will really benefit you and you will like your cut much more!
