Bad hair days are a part of life. Somehow, they always manage to sneak up on us when we least expect them – on a day when we're running against the clock, or have an important business meeting to attend or are supposed to go on a date with a special someone. Pretty bad timing, isn't it? Well, necessity is the mother of invention! So, we've come up with our own bunch of defense mechanisms to fight those days when everything seems to be going wrong with our hair.
Whether you woke up with knots, frizz or rough and dry, straw-like hair that refuses to be tamed, here are five easy ways to control your bad hair day:
1. Get Sleek Hair in Minutes
Work in a tiny amount of frizz remover cream through your mane and use your fingers to spread the product from the roots to the tips. Follow up with a generous spritz of strand smoother serum spray to make your hair soft, smooth and shiny. Divide your tresses into 3-4 vertical sections; gently comb the sections through using a wide-toothed comb, starting at the tips and working your way up to the scalp.
While the hair product will loosen all the knots, slightly lubricate your strands and control frizz and flyaways, the wide-toothed comb will detangle your hair in minutes, without tugging or pulling it.
2. Slick into a Wet Look Hairstyle
Does your hair look greasy? An easy trick to disguise greasy hair is to apply a tiny amount of styling gel on damp tresses, run a comb through them and head out of the door with an on trend wet look hairstyle!
3. Bring Dry Shampoo to Your Rescue
Don't have time to shampoo your hair? Meet your new best friend – the dry shampoo!
Spritz some dry shampoo on your roots, comb your tresses through to spread the product and have a fresh looking mane in seconds. Even better – change your hair part to induce instant volume in your tresses and look different too!
4. Make a Messy Hairstyle
Chunky ponytail, tousled braids as well as high-volume top knots are some quick and cool hairstyle options for messy hair. Besides being in vogue these days, lived-in, undone hairstyles also help to hide limp, wavy or curly hair.
5. Wear a Hat
When nothing else works out, there's always a hat to disguise a messy mane. Make a ponytail or a braid to wear under your beanie or fedora and make your own style statement wherever you go!
Here's hoping these tips will help you fight and forget a bad hair day. Do you know any other hacks? Do share with us!
