Every modern woman always tries to look beautiful and well-groomed, wherever she is - at home, at work, at school or on a visit. However, the lack of time does not always allow you to visit beauty salons as often as you would like. Therefore, the question of how to do my own hairstyle becomes especially relevant. This can be dealt with quickly and easily with professional advice.
How to do your own hair
To keep the hairstyle well, the hair must be clean and well-groomed. Taboo - oily roots, split ends, indistinct color and dullness. Healthy shiny hair is a guarantee of excellent styling, even if its owner cannot boast of the thickness and length of hair.
On average, hair length increases by an inch every month. For those who grow them, trichologists recommend trimming the tips at least once a quarter so that the strands look neat.
The hairstyle should emphasize the external beauty, and it is important to select it depending on the type of appearance and facial contours.
There are computer programs that will help you choose a hairstyle from the uploaded photo. The color of the hair, its length, condition (thin or thick, straight or curly, dry or prone to oily) should also be taken into account.
Various hair care products and styling products will be of great help in creating your own image. You should use only proven professional brands or folk remedies that have proven themselves well.
Before using a hair dryer, curling iron or iron that damages the hair structure, you must use thermal protection. It is imperative to take care of the condition of your hair in hot weather and cold weather.
Fixing means will help to keep the styling on the head for a long time:
- Foam or mousse. They are used to add volume to the hair and make the hair stronger. Apply foam or mousse on wet clean strands, after drying them slightly, then lay them with a hairdryer or curlers. Foams of weak hold hold fine hair well, and strong ones hold thick or curly hair.
- Gel. It is recommended to use it to style lush "recalcitrant" hair, using it on a ready-made style to highlight or smooth individual strands. It is allowed to apply the gel to both wet and dry hair. Can be achieved with the help of a gel for the illusion of wet hair. It is worth choosing high-quality products without alcohol, which are quickly absorbed and strengthen hair from the inside.
- Wax. Indispensable for curls, especially in wet rainy weather. Having treated the hair with wax, you can achieve their softness, "obedience". The strands acquire a lively healthy shine. The wax is suitable for creating smooth, well-fixed styling.
- Varnish. The final touch in modeling a hairstyle, when you need to fix an already finished styling or adjust it. Experts insist on the use of fortified varnishes with protection from the negative effects of the environment.Some contain medicinal herbs, thanks to which the ends get protection from splitting, and the hair itself - strength and elasticity. The composition of varnishes should not contain alcohol, which can cause allergies and damage the hair structure, hairdressers warn.
Varnishes differ in the degree of fixation; the tube usually has an inscription on which hair they are suitable. Extra strong lacquers are usually used for long-term styling. Apply them at a distance of 25 cm from the head for an even spray. High-quality varnish does not stick hair and is easily removed by brushing.
Romantic styling for medium and long hair
Any girl knows how to create a romantic image. Armed with the necessary items and styling products, you can easily and quickly do your own hair.
Greek styling
This hairstyle has several variations and requires the use of hairpins and a special bandage:
- The hair should be combed with a natural comb so that it does not become electrified, and divided into a straight part.
- Put on a wide or narrow bandage on your head and successively, starting from the front, wrap the strands under it.
- Secure with hairpins and hairspray.
You can diversify this styling with bundles woven from individual strands. Washed and dried hair with a styling agent applied to it should be wound on curlers, braided or a "spikelet" from their part, and the rest should be twisted with bundles and tucked under a bandage from your own hair.
Low ponytail with a flower
A hair flower can be a festive styling option. The hairstyle is based on a ponytail tied at the back of the head:
- On the side, you need to select a small strand and braid it into a pigtail, in the process of this, the strands need to be pulled out of the already braided part.
- Lightly sprinkling the pigtail with varnish, twist it from the tip to make a flower resembling a rose.
- Use invisible or hairpins to stab the flower at the base.
- Wrap the loose remaining strands and lay them in the form of curls.
Curls
To create curls, you need to wind long strands on large or medium curlers or a conical curling iron, holding it vertically. Before you start creating curls, you should treat the strands with a persistent fixative, since long hair is usually heavy and styling does not last very long on them.
The twisted strands can be carelessly disassembled with your fingers and laid with varnish, or you can lift and pin them with a beautiful hairpin, tie them in a tail, releasing individual curls. You can leave your hair straight by winding some strands and fixing them with varnish.
Curls on medium to long hair can be created with:
- ironing;
- hair dryer;
- forceps;
- curlers;
- papillotes;
- Thermo curlers.
To wind with an iron or curling iron, divide the strands into zones and twist them one at a time at a short distance from the roots. It depends on the diameter of the curling iron whether large or small curls will turn out.
Clean, damp hair should be rolled on curlers, dried with a hairdryer or naturally, disassembled with your fingers, and fixed with varnish. Papillots (soft foam curlers) can curl small curls. Such curlers can be left on the head overnight - they do not interfere with normal sleep.
Heated rollers are plastic and have a paraffin rod. They are more gentle than electric tongs or irons. Curls obtained with the help of heat rollers last longer than curled with a curling iron or iron. Another way to get curls is small pigtails, which you can braid before going to bed from all your hair, and in the morning unravel and comb.
Light waves
Curlers (regular or thermo) of medium size cope with their creation easily and quickly, having which, you can not puzzle how to make your own hair. After the hair has been wrapped, dried and removed the curlers, you should separate them with your fingers, smooth and, sprinkling with varnish, secure with hairpins.
Brushing is a way to create light waves using a hair dryer and a round comb. Each strand should be carefully removed from the brush and treated with varnish, then beat all the hair with your hands. You can braid your hair in small pigtails and iron it over it. Untwist the braids, disassemble the waves with your fingers and spray on them with varnish.
Romantic bundle
A bun of long or semi-long hair looks advantageous both on weekdays and on holidays, stylists say. A smoothed bun looks especially elegant: the hair is straightened, collected in a ponytail and smoothed with a comb. The tail is twisted in a spiral, unwound and secured with hairpins.
