7 Hairstyling Cocktails That Will Give You a Perfect Hair Day (Finally)For just-walked-out-of-the-salon hair, mix and match hairstyling products. Here, your cocktail fix for every sad hair situation |
The Look: Rock-Star-Status Texture Mix a volumizing hairspray + a styling wax
Creating piece-y texture that lasts doesn't take hours of tweaking or a "Jersey Shore" amount of gel. Mika Fowler, hairstylist at the Kim Vo Salon in Beverly Hills, recommends a combo of volumizing hairspray and styling wax -- especially for girls with limp, fine hair, or those with frizzy hair.
Fowler says to work with 1-inch sections of damp hair. Spray the volumizing hairspray to the back of your hair, then blow dry. Dip your finger in the styling wax and apply to the ends of your hair and to any flyaways. If you want a firmer hold, apply the styling wax to wet hair before you blow dry.
Try Joico Flip Turn Volumizing Finishing Spray, $16.99, with Toni & Guy Stick It Up Gum, $14.99

Informative. I especially liked that curly hair cocktails were included.

This was so helpful because when I use the wrong products together my hair is limp and greasy and I needed a little tip on how to get natural looking hair with the right mix of products.

This provided me with some helpful hair combinations! Many hair products aim to achieve one specific thing, but sometimes it takes more than one product to achieve an overall "look" so this was great.

I wish we could bookmark articles to come back to later! Like a heart feature or something.
