Spring is here! Time to Lighten Up! [No “spring cleaning” jokes or puns. Promise.] Longer days mean more daylight. You can do more with your colour and cut.
Spring colours: If you are Blonde, Move your colour to the lighter, more cool tones. For the Brunettes, Time for the brighter primary colours. [Leave the darkness!] A shift to the coppers will look really good.
Cut: Spring is about growth so why not create movement in your hair? Keep the general clean shape though mess it up a little by blurring the edges with an uneven cut.
Maintenance: Your new uneven cut allows you to trim out the Winter split ends and other hair damage. [I still have a few good tricks left!] Loosen up the styling products to allow your hair to “move”. Slightly shaggy is great. Remember your hair will have suffered a little with all those evenings in front of the fire, night clubs and the dryness from the cold Winter wind and “the office” air conditioning.
Be kind to your scalp. Avoid scrubbing and over vigorous combing. Use Mike REHAB conditioning Cream [shameless advertorial plug] and gently massage your hair back to health.
AVOID USING WATER THAT IS TOO HOT!!! Water that is too hot can really damage your hair.
p.s. Did you read my Q&A in the latest Avenues Magazine? [Thought I did well.]
