A bad hair day can ruin anyone’s look and can even make you left feeling like you need to wear a bag over your head. It is so important to pamper your hair to keep it in top shape, preventing bad hair days from ever heading your way.
If your scalp tends to dry, make sure to treat it right with a good scrub. Don’t go overboard, you only need to use a scrub once every 10 days. I recommend Korres Green Silt & Corallina Oligoelements Hair & Scalp Scrub. Its not harsh or abrasive the way some body scrubs can be, but leaves you without that embarrassing dry skin flaking off into your hair.
I can never bypass a great hair mask. I love using Ojon’s Restorative Hair Treatment, which uses 100% natural Ojon palm nut oil. If your hair is really is bad shape, it’s a hair mask that can be left on overnight.
When it comes to shampoo and conditioner, I’m again extremely partial to Ojon. It’s a combination of its wonderfully nutty fragrance and how soft and manageable it makes my hair. I’ve used their Ultra Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner that is part of their 5-Piece Nurturing Hair Ritual Kit and find it amazing (even my husband loves to use it).
If you don’t like nutty fragrances, you may then like Kiss My Face’s Miss Treated Shampoo & Conditioner. I also use this shampoo/conditioner set and find I reach for it when I am in need of some aromatherapy. The Miss Treated Shampoo and Conditioner have a Eucalyptus and Peppermint fragrance that is great for stress release, but also to boost your mood. It’s an organic product that also uses essential oils to moisturize your scalp and is great for chemically treated and overstressed hair.
The majority of us frown as soon as we know it will be a humid day because then we have frizz to contend with. Then there are those of us who have to contend with frizz regardless of the weather. There are three products I use interchangeably to fight frizzy hair: ISO Tamer Foam, Ojon Daily Intensive Shine Treatment and Joico’s KPak Smoothing Balm. Each are great anti-frizz products, but all have different ingredients that make them work in different ways. Depending on your hair type, one may work better than the other for you.
Using a great hair brush and dryer are also key to great hair. I currently use the Tourmaline Ionic + Ceramic Round Hair Brush, which is also great at reducing frizz, and you can double the benefits by using the Tourmaline Ionic + Ceramic Hair Dryer by Esthetic Plus.
I find that when I take good care of my hair, I have less bad hair days (if any at all) and more people wondering if I just came from the salon.
