Many women face a bad hair day every month since they neglect their hair care due to numerous reasons. Some of these include running late, missing an appointment with hairstylist, mismanaging hair care routine, etc.

Whatever the reason, one thing is certain that if you don’t look after your hair, you’ll have several bad hair days in a month which may leave you frustrated and sometimes embarrassed.

Follow these simple hairstyling tips to drive away a bad hair day.

1. Never miss your hair care routine. Shampooing and massaging your head not only makes your hair healthy but also gives you a relaxed and soothing feeling which gets reflected on your face and makes your personality look pleasing.

2. While you’re in the shower, wet your hair. If you don’t have too much time to dry it later, just damp them. This will make them easier to style and manage. You may consider applying gel if you want to hold onto the wet look.

3. If you are in a real hurry to style your hair, go for ponytail or braids or Afro to withstand your bad hair. Those having long hair can easily tie their hair into a ponytail or create braids that result in voluminous waves. For those who have short hair, trying an Afro hairstyle will not only make you look chic but it will also save your time.

4. If you don’t find any of the above mentioned options interesting, you may try to use a headband, or a turban to prevent a bad hair day.

5. Another great option to make your hair look good is to spice your hairstyle with some decorative clips or extensions. Make sure you don’t overdo this or else you might create a mess on top of your head.

The Brazilian Blowout is a method of temporarily straightening hair by sealing the hair with a liquid keratin and a preservative solution with a flat hair iron.

The Brazilian Blowout is the most innovative and effective professional smoothing treatment in the world. It actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle.

There are various hair straightening treatments available in salons, so what makes Brazilian Keratin Treatment stand out from the rest?

The answer is – it can truly change you’re life!!! This treatment has been used by celebrities such as Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Richie, Nicole Kidman and Halle Berry, and has given them marvelous results. In fact, the methods and products have taken Hollywood by storm.

The Brazilian Keratin Treatment lasts for about three months and it can be performed on all types of chemically-treated hair. With time, the protective protein layer washes out and hair return to their normal state.

Most people prefer this hair straightening method because the end result is smooth, healthy, frizz-free hair with radiant shine! Also, it improves the health of the hair and causes no damage.

There have been some health concerns regarding this keratin treatment but that happens only when you do not take this treatment under an expert’s supervision. Make sure, you take this hair straightening treatment in a salon which has successfully carried out such treatments in the past.

Brazilian Blowout treatment is 100% safe and so are the products used in it. They contain no harsh chemicals and are thus easy on your hair, giving them shine, strength and longer life.

Beehive hairstyle is one of the most desired women’s hairstyles today. Everyone has been scrambling to get a new look for the season and the regular hair updos or colored hair are out as people want something new and trendy and hence we are seeing the return of retro hairstyles.

The Beehive hairstyle is a woman’s hairstyle that resembles a beehive; it is also known as the B-52. This style was highly popular throughout the 1960s, particularly in the United States and other Western countries. Celebrities like Christina Aguilera and Amy Winehouse have also sported this hairdo and have received much appreciation for their celebrity hairstyle.

This style works best on hair that isn’t squeaky-clean. I researched on how to achieve a Beehive and thought of sharing the simple process which does not require many hair shears. So here’s the simple process to get a Beehive:

1. Separate the hair into two sections by combing a part from one ear around to the other in a straight line. Take the top section and, using a fine-toothed tail comb, backcomb from the front to the back of the crown in chunks of about 3 inches wide, from root to tip.
2. Flip the top section of backcombed hair forward and secure it to one side with a clip. Then, begin to backcomb through the bottom layers in the same way for creating texture and keeping the beehive secure.
3. Take a bristle brush and using just the tip; gently brush the surface of the hair downwards from the crown. The aim is to smooth over the top layer of backcombed hair, not brush it out completely – you want to keep the “nestiness”
4. Pull all the hair down towards the nape of the neck, as if to put it in a low ponytail. Slide all of the hair over to the right and secure it with a vertical row of grips.
5. Take the hair from the right-hand side and twist it to the left and towards the crown, creating an upwards roll in one movement.
6. Tease and define the crown by pulling away random strands of hair with your fingers. Finally, spritz with a malleable hairspray to get a perfect Beehive hairstyle.

Tyra Banks natural hair has been a hotly discussed topic amongst many. While very few people who are close to Tyra knew the secret behind her hair, others were busy in speculating.

Many men and women have had a feeling that she does not have healthy natural hair and uses wigs and extensions. There’s nothing wrong in their perception because whenever Tyra has appeared in public events, she has always used wigs. Be it walking the ramp or attending parties, everyone knew that she used extensions and wigs to flaunt her hairstyle and that they were not Tyra Banks real hair.

But recently, she surprised everyone by appearing on The Tyra Show with her original hair. Without any hesitation, she appeared on stage and sported her original hair which looked perfectly natural. She possesses very normal hair that is similar to any African American woman.

To commensurate this great moment for natural African American hair, Scissorboy brings you a very special episode featuring more ideas for getting natural African American Hairstyles with Ms. Keeli Harris from Kandills Salon and Spa in Oakland, CA.

Keeli calls this hairstyle a clipper over comb short cut which leaves the option of leaving her natural african american hair, very much like Tyra did by revealing the Tyra Banks Natural Hair look to kick off the new season of her talk show last night to the world.

I think you will agree that Keeli does a tremendous job in keeping her clients natural hair flattering yet allowing them to add a little bit of spice to their natural african american hairstyles.

Congratulations to Tyra Banks for having the courage to don her natural African American hair and inspire other women to do the same. For more information on Tyra Banks Natural hair, natural african american hair and ideas on how to get Tyra Banks real hair SUBSCRIBE to the whole FREE series.
