Lizzie and I spent a lot of time discussing her options. It was at the core of who she was and is. She needed to know that she was in control of the process of getting her hair back into good condition. Getting your hair done is an intimate experience and trust matters. I’m sure you’ll agree that the connection you have with your hairdresser is vital to getting the right style and advice for you. Working in a hair salon, you spend a lot of time with people. For Lizzie, this meant putting a stop to her hair breakage, preventing future damage and, as she put it, ‘I want my hair back, but I don’t want to compromise on the colour’. Lizzie wanted to maintain her statement bleached hair and, at the same time, regain the elasticity of her hair after years of bleaching. For Mags, a woman expert in the art of multi-tasking, this meant she could get on with her job whilst taking care of her hair. Because she worked from home one day a week, we decided that this was the perfect opportunity to wash her hair, followed by Restore and Shine Hair Masque. Mags usually washed her hair at the weekend and, we agreed that she would continue with this routine. So, Mags and I talked about her weekly routine and, we spent some time working out when and how she could fit in a weekly hair conditioning treatment. That means, whether it’s exercise or diet or work, I think good things come out of a consistent approach. When it comes to achieving things in life, routine is king.
So, Mags would add a second wash to her hair each week. Secondly, we agreed on a plan to get more moisture into her hair. I’ve worked with a lot of curly hair during my career and, I’ve found that taking a simple approach gets the best results.įirst up, Mags needed a great haircut. Plus, I’ll share some real-life examples of clients who have improved hair elasticity and restored balance to their hair to prevent breakage and stretchy hair. Whether your concern is that your hair is dry and brittle or your hair has too much stretch, use my tips below to achieve a natural balance.ĭiscover a simple stretch test for you to check your hair’s elasticity. Keep on reading to discover how you can rebalance the elasticity of your hair. When hair has balance, it has enough elasticity so that it doesn’t break but not too much stretch that it doesn’t fall back into shape. I encourage you to think about hair elasticity as achieving the natural balance for your hair, whatever your hair type. When hair loses moisture, you may notice that it feels more brittle.įor some, hair elasticity after bleaching can be a problem resulting in excessively stretchy hair, leaving hair matted and at risk of breakage. For instance, curly hair is naturally dry and can be prone to loss of elasticity.ĭry hair can be a result of environmental factors such as heated styling or exposure to the sun.
Since ive just had my eyebrows and lashes tinted, never had this sort of thing ever b4, but eyebrows back but light and grey in them, lashes when i dont use mascara, as never do make up in the day, only if i go out, always been like that.We sometimes associate hair elasticity with hair type. It felt, like 2 tons had been lifted off my chest when i looke din the mirror, ohhh i cant explain how floaty i felt,ĭont think anyone, like hubby, or family, mates know how it felt, and when one family member, commented on my FACEBOOK pic, next time have some hi lights., i got angry, this was a milestone for me, and the transformation in my looks, and how i felt was enourmous, why had this person dampened it for me!!! Sooooooo wonderful now, ok need to get colour right, as not sure how this new hair will react, and went for a blond, as mone before was lgiht, from colour i had used and many years in the sun, When i asked McMillan nurses, they said about 6 mths, just had mine done, and its the best feelign ever, from the horrid grey, looked like my dead mother, sorry mum, but it put 20 yrs on me, and at 62 i dont need more lol.
