The Right Way to Wear a Wig

Short hair can be easily tucked in under a wig. Long hair has to be sectioned and pinned into wide flapping curls.

Slip on your wig in the same way as you slip on a swimming cap - start at the forehead and then pull it down on your head.

Avoid keeping your wig on for too long - not more than five to six hours at a stretch. Even light-weight wigs can cause more than usual perspiration. Perspiration is bad for the hair and scalp. Your own hair must be aired frequently.

What You Should Know About On Choosing a Wig?

Some reasons or situations under which you might want to buy a Wig.

1. If you're having temporary problems with hair loss or damage. Remember, however, that a wig can disguise hair damage, not correct it. It is important that you see a doctor about hair problems.

2. You want a dramatic, short-term change of color or style. Remember, however, that your wig must look natural.
While picking up a wig it is important to keep a few things in mind.

Choose an adequate hair color - it must suit your eye and skin colors.

It is not essential to buy a wig of human hair. Synthetic wigs can be as good as natural hair wigs, and they are also much more reasonable.

Make sure that the wig has been well made and well styled. Turn it inside out: wide open space base and loose lattices of flexible ribbon will guarantee comfort and coolness. Avoid close mesh backings.

Keep-in mind that you are choosing a new hairstyle. Make sure that the style you choose really goes well with you.

Finally, try it on and see how it fits. While you can minimally restyle a wig if you decide you don't like the original one, there is absolutely nothing you can do about its fit.

The wig should be snug enough to survive a vigorous head­shake.

If, however, it creeps up your scalp and gives you a headache, it is tight.

What You Should Know About Going in for Perm? - Hair Perm Tips

For hair that needs body, definite curl, or a hint of curl - the answer lies in perming.

Always go to a salon for a perm if your hair tends to go fluffy or if it is resistant to curl If, however, you are confident of your ability to do your hair at home, you can do it yourself with a perming lotion.

Remember, however, that if your hair is greasy or resists curls, the perming lotion should be left on for a longer time. Brittle and dry hair needs a shorter time for the lotion to take effect. Normal hair needs the suggested perming time. Always make sure that your hair is in good condition before you perm. Bleaching and perming should never go together. Make sure that none of the old perm remains before applying a new one.

If your skin is sensitive, rub cold cream into the skin round the hair-line before you start perming.

Read instructions carefully and always do a skin test.

Divide your hair into even tresses with not too much on each roller.

Follow the natural movement of the hair for best results. Wind hair firmly, but not too tightly on the rollers.

Do not let the tips of your tresses get doubled back.

Also remember not to color your hair for at least a week before or after a perm.

What You Should Know About The Hand Blow-Dryer?

The hand blow-dryer is a wonder-tool, if you know how to use it well.

For blow-drying, section your damp hair with the. back of a tailed comb. Move systematically, drying one section before moving to another. Dry the front section last. Always remember to hold the dryer six to eight inches from your hair.

Brushing and drying hair against the natural growth gives it greater bounce, body and volume.

When your hair is almost dry, turn your dryer to the 'cool' setting. This prevents frizziness.

What You Should Know About Hair Roller-setting?

You give beauty to your hair only by encouraging it to follow its own natural patterns. Never let a stylist interfere with the natural hair-line on the neck.

The worst thing a hairdresser can do for your hair is to use a razor on it.

Hair must always be cut when it is wet. Don't cut your hair yourself even though it may seem simple enough.

Without a good professional cut, no style will hold its shape. It is worthwhile getting to know one hairdresser and always going to him or her.

Unless you can visit your hairdresser regularly (say, once a week), you need a hair style you can manage well at home.

Ask your hairdresser to tell you a simple way in which you can blow-dry or roller-set your hair. Do invest in a good hair-dryer. It can be a tremendous time-saver.

If your hair style requires roller-setting, make sure you know how to use rollers well. It takes a little time to become proficient at roller-setting. Once this proficiency is achieved, it is very simple to set a style. One basic rule, however, while putting your hair in rollers,-always lift it at right angles to the scalp. This gives the essential lift to your waves, also your set will last much longer.

Do not walk around all day in curlers. As hair dries, it contracts slightly. If the curlers are left on for too long, the hair tends to break with the strain. Also, unless you use artificial heat, it is unlikely that the hair will be bone-dry at the roots even after a couple of hours.

Allow hair to cool before removing your rollers. To make sure your hair is dry, always first remove one roller and check. Remove rollers slowly and carefully, do not tug.

Avoid the use of metal rollers - they become extremely hot under a dryer. This excessive heat damages the hair-ends rolled right next to them. If you use a setting lotion, simply wet your comb in it and comb through each section before you roll-up.

Don't economize on rollers - too much hair on one roller will not set properly.

Secure each roller firmly with a pin.

Start roller-setting from the crown of your head, work down­wards systematically.

How to Choosing a Hair Style?

The style that you choose for your hair should depend on the type of hair you have and on the shape of your face.

However fashions may fluctuate, there are certain rules that do not change. Keep these in mind before you choose the style. Keep fine hair short and fluffy. A blunt hair-cut is often more successful than a tapering-cut.

Hair that is medium or coarse takes most styles well. Heavy or thick hair must not be kept very long, as it does not hang well.

Study the shape of your face by severely drawing back all your hair. Re­member, the right hair style can make you look more attractive by draw­ing attention away from your physical flaws towards your more attractive features.
