How To Tame Flyaways
In the hair world, few things can be as pesky and persistent as flyaways. Those tiny, wispy hairs that stand on end, refusing to fall in line with your carefully styled hairdo, can be quite a nuisance. However, with the right tips and tools, these unruly strands can be tamed. Let's unravel the secrets to achieving a sleek, flyaway-free look.
1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate
The first step to controlling flyaways begins with ensuring your hair is well moisturised. Dry hair is more prone to static and breakage, both of which can lead to flyaways. Incorporate a hydrating shampoo and conditioner into your routine and consider using a deep-conditioning hair mask, like the FUL Intense Moisture Hair Mask, once a week for an extra boost of hydration.
2. Heat Protection is a Must
Heat styling tools can cause damage and breakage, leading to more flyaways. Always apply a heat protectant spray before using heat on your hair. This will create a protective barrier that reduces the potential damage from styling tools.
3. Choose the Right Brush
When it comes to taming flyaways, the type of brush you use can make a significant difference. Opt for a brush with natural bristles as they help distribute your hair's natural oils from root to tip, reducing static and promoting smoother hair.
4. Make Hair Oils Your Ally
Hair oils can be a secret weapon in your battle against flyaways. They help hydrate your hair and give it a smooth, shiny finish. Simply rub a few drops of hair oil between your palms and smooth it over your hair. Focus on the mid-lengths and ends while avoiding the roots to prevent your hair from looking greasy.
5. Use Products Designed to Tame Flyaways
There are plenty of products on the market specifically designed to keep flyaways at bay. These include anti-frizz serums, smoothing lotions, and even flyaway-specific hair mascaras. The FUL Hyaluronic Acid Hair Serum is designed to add a boost of moisture to the hair while taming flyaways and reducing frizz.
A small amount of these products can be applied directly to your troublesome hairs for a sleek, polished finish.
6. Master the Art of Hairspray
Hairspray can be a godsend for taming flyaways. The trick is to spray a clean, unused toothbrush with a little hairspray and then gently brush down the flyaways. This provides more targeted application and won't leave your hair feeling heavy or sticky.
7. Regular Trims
Getting regular trims helps to keep your hair healthy and reduces the chance of breakage and split ends, which can lead to flyaways. Aim for a trim every 6-8 weeks to keep your hair looking its best.
Taming flyaways doesn't have to be a battle. With these tips, you can enjoy sleek, polished hair free of those pesky stray hairs. Remember, the secret to managing flyaways is to keep your hair healthy and hydrated, protect it from heat, and have the right products at your disposal. Say goodbye to flyaways and hello to smooth, fabulous hair!
