While drying your hair, use a bristle brush instead of the “classic” round brush. This way you will be able to achieve a much smoother and more disciplined drying.

Maybe you don’t know that bristles (especially boar bristles, sorry) help seal the cuticles, making the hair brighter and softer. Use the brush to direct the cuticles down and the hot air flow for seal moisture inside.

Obviously there are also some on the market synthetic bristle brushes and they do the same job as those animals very well! A cruelty free choice that you will surely appreciate.

3) Dry your hair completely

Dry your hair completely is essential if you want to eliminate all the moisture and get a smooth effect like at the hairdresser. When wet, the hair continues to absorb moisture, with the obvious consequence that it will quickly appear frizzy.

Once you have finished drying your hair, seal your styling by passing a jet of cold air all over the hair, in this way the cuticles will seal and the hair will no longer absorb moisture.

The type of hair dryer also plays an important role in obtaining an impeccable look, the most recommended for straight hair are those ai Ions. Finally, for the final touch, go over all the hair there plate (paying attention to the temperature) to eliminate the last swellings and ensure a perfectly smooth fold to the hair.

Finally, know that there are also some rain-resistant hairstyles. If your hair is particularly affected by climate change, a foolproof solution is to style your hair to prevent wind and rain from ruining the style.

From the low ponytail to the messy bun, the use of the right rubber bands is also fundamental, which do not mark and pull the hair. In this case you can use both scrunchies, the fabric elastics (adored by all) or the curled elastics, which by the way do not even give you a headache!
