The Hair Doctor

Are you having a reoccurring hair nightmare? You don’t have to call in sick just yet. The help is at hand!

Problem: As soon as I’m outside, my hair frizzes!

Solution: Hairspray! It really protects your locks from frizzing up, so before you walk out, spray your hair with your favourite fixing hairspray. Another little helper is using a de-frizzing or smoothing cream before you blow dry your hair.

Problem: My hair is greasy and I washed it yesterday!

Solution: Don’t wash it too often. Over-stimulating sebaceous glands encourages oil production. Neat trick is massaging volumising shampoo into dry hair and then rinsing it, it removes excess oil. And the best help on the go? Dry shampoo.

Problem: I have very fine/thin hair and it looks flat!

Solution: Stick to a volumising range of hair products. From shampoo to roots lifting mousse and if you have more time, use heated rollers or velcro ones when blow drying. Fix with spray. Nourish your hair from the inside with Omega-3s supplements.

Problem: My scalp is so dry!

Solution: Scalp facial! Scalp needs as much care as your face, you need to exfoliate it and hydrate it. You can use hair oil and work it into a scalp then brush your hair with paddle brush for 5 minutes.

Problem: My hair won’t stay curled or straightened for long!

Solution: Cooler heat! Your straightening and curling tongs should be on a cooler setting so the hair cuticles won’t open as wide, keeping your desired style for longer! Spray your hair before styling each strand to lock out moisture!
