Make hairstyling more manageable by using a paddle brush to blow-dry bangs when hair is wet.
Adding vintage clips, colored string or a simple headband is a great way to play up your hair with a minimal investment of time and effort.
Make your haircolor really gleam by having your colorist apply a glossing treatment, or pick up the do-it-yourself version at home.
When getting ready to make a haircolor switch, start with a strand test. Color just one strand of hair—in an inconspicuous place—to determine if you like the new hue!
Want your gorgeous red haircolor to last? Try washing the hair with cold water, as cold as you can stand it, to keep the color from fading.
Not enough time in the morning? Choose a wet/dry flat iron, which allows you to straighten hair when it’s damp.
When it comes to color care, remember that the further away you go from your natural shade, the more maintenance you need to do
Add definition to your natural waves by prepping damp tresses with a curl-boosting spray and blow-dry using the diffuser attachment.
Use a clarifying shampoo every two weeks to prevent products with silicone bases from building up and prevent hair from absorbing conditioners.
Looking for a way to glam up your silhouette? For an added touch of glamour, apply shiny gel over dried gel.
With the fall season in full swing, it may be time for a new mane shade. Blonde? Add darker cinnamon lowlights. Brunette? Try a few warm honey-blonde highlights.
Glam up the classic ponytail. Start by fashioning waves with a curling iron. Then, smooth the crown down with gel and gather spirals into a ponytail at the crown.
Any haircut can become a red-carpet style. Simply slicking back a cropped coiffure can have you looking like a Hollywood starlet!
Ashley Benson’s Pretty Little Liars character Hanna may be keeping a secret or two, but when it comes to the actress’ mane reality, she’s ready to reveal all her tress truths to Sophisticate’s…
Updos are special—save them for a special occasion such as a cocktail party, wedding, anniversary or even date night!
Before styling your hair with a flat iron, add shine with a glossing treatment. The heat from styling tool will lock in the sheen!
Mousse, setting lotions and hairspray are products that may help you create a look that holds all day and night.
If you have thick hair and are considering a short snip, keep in mind, the shorter you go the thicker your hair gets. Try a nice medium-length haircut!
Love the simplicity of wearing ponytails? Avoid breakage by using cloth-covered elastic bands without the metal casing.
If you do a lot of heat styling, apply a heat protectant to the hair to protect it from any damage that could occur from using too much heat.
Worried about your haircolor growing out too fast? Ask your stylist to foil hair in very fine sections to help disguise outgrowth.
Demi-permanent color lasts for 28 shampoos but it does not lighten your hair. Use this type of haircolor if you want to tweak your natural shade.
Keep long-lasting waves by crafting loose spirals with a curling iron and pinning them up (while they cool) to lock in their shape.
Semi-permanent haircolor lasts between 8 and 10 shampoos, so it’s ideal for someone who doesn’t wash her hair every day.
Getting married? Schedule a hair trial/consultation with your hairstylist well in advance before the big day.
Overheated curls can lose their bounciness. Avoid keeping your hair wound around a curling for too long or you may lose the texture you desire.
Don’t forge to clean your styling tools. Wipe down flat iron plates and curling iron clasps with a damp rag while the flat iron is cooled, but still slightly warm, to easily remove product build-up.
