When it comes to achieving fuller, healthier-looking hair, the right techniques and products can make all the difference. This month, we’re sharing our favourite tips, from mastering backcombing to taming frizz and protecting your strands with better drying habits. Whether you’re looking to add volume or reduce breakage, here’s everything you need to know.
Backcombing for Volume (Without the Damage)
Backcombing is a go-to technique for adding instant volume and fullness to your hair. It works by creating a cushion at the roots, lifting the hair and giving it a fuller appearance. Here’s how to do it properly:
1. Choose the Right Comb: Use a wide-toothed comb for precise teasing.
2. Section Strategically: Take small sections of hair near the crown.
3. Tease Gently: Hold the section taut and comb downward toward the roots in gentle motions.
While backcombing is great for volume, removing it incorrectly can lead to tangles and breakage. To safely detangle:
• Apply Conditioner: Use a generous amount of Hair Loving Conditioner to soften the knots.
• Use Hair Oil: Add a few drops of our Beauty Renewal Oil for extra slip, making it easier to work through tangles.
• Be Gentle: Start at the ends and work your way up, taking your time to prevent tugging.
This method not only preserves your hair but also leaves it feeling soft and manageable.
Tame Frizz with Hair Oils
Frizz is a common concern, especially during the colder months when hair tends to be drier. Hair oils are your best friend for keeping frizz under control while nourishing your strands.
Our Beauty Renewal Oil is packed with natural ingredients like argan oil, rosemary, and pomegranate to smooth and hydrate. Here’s how to use it:
1. For Damp Hair: After washing, apply 1–2 drops of oil to the mid-lengths and ends to lock in moisture and reduce frizz as your hair dries.
2. For Dry Hair: Use the oil as a finishing touch to add shine and tame flyaways.
With regular use, hair oils not only manage frizz but also improve the overall health and resilience of your strands.
Upgrade Your Drying Routine
Many people don’t realize that their drying routine could be causing unnecessary damage. Regular towels, while convenient, can create friction that leads to breakage and frizz. The solution? Switch to a Hair Loving Towel Wrap.
Here’s why our towel wrap is a must-have:
• Gentle on Hair: Its soft, microfiber material minimizes friction and protects the hair cuticle.
• Absorbs Moisture Efficiently: Reduces drying time without roughing up your strands.
• Easy to Use: Simply wrap, secure, and let it do its job while you go about your routine.
Using a specialized towel wrap not only keeps your hair healthier but also enhances the results of your styling products, making them more effective.
