#2 Hair: Colour, Cut, Routine

 

Without sounding like I'm bragging or thinking I look good, I am always getting compliments on my hair. My best friend has the same haircut as me and is also blonde (I think this is why we must have naturally gravitated together haha) and is always asking me how I get is so (as she describes) perfect. I can assure you this is not the case every day, ha. So I thought I would do a post on it and what I get done to it and how to maintain it.

Cut:
My hair is very short on one side and the back and as a result needs to trimmed on a fairly regular basis. I get it cut, trimmed and blow-dried once every five weeks at a local hairdressers just down the road from me. My hairdresser knows me and my hair well and as a result she always gets it just right for me.

Colour:
I've been blonde, blonde with a brown streak (Don't ask!), Brown, Black, and back to my natural blonde again. Recently I've been lightening it by getting the occasional set of highlights (though I've always had natural highlights and streaks through my hair) and using John Frieda's Sheer Blonde Highlight Activating Enhancing Shampoo and Conditioner and John Frieda's Go Blonder Lightening Spray once every other wash (The spray is great, I will be posing a review of it soon when I've come to the end of the bottle). I'm always wanting to do something to it.

Routine:
I tend to wash it every other day and have the occasional 'dry shampoo' day because I hate washing it and then it being dry, a bit frizzy and static. I'm not too fussed with what shampoo or conditioner I use usually but I've loved using the John Frieda Sheer Blonde Range because it just smelt absolutely delicious and left my hair looking well and glossy as well as the Percy & Reed Range (So good!).
After shampooing and conditioning, I spray my hair thoroughly with Tresemme's Heat Defence Spray and comb it through (occasionally as I said use a lightening spray) before blow drying it in small sections starting with the underneath of the short side and then the underneath of the longer side. I get most of the volume from the combination of the types of brushes I use as well as the way I blow dry it as I blow dry from underneath the hair as well as on top too...




...And there is is, my hair!

I hope you've enjoyed this post, I only thought about it doing it as I've just been to the hairdressers this morning. I didn't really know whether to post it or not but you never know if you don't try.
Hope you all have a great day!
