It always looks so easy when a hairdresser styles your hair.
It seems to be done to perfection within a few minutes. As we all know styling your own hair can be difficult. So, it is
always worth picking the brains of your hairdresser to see if they can give you
any easy tips and tricks for you adopt at home.
Emma Mitchell at London’s Daniel Galvin salon
(danielgalvin.com) is a mine of information. I rate this lady highly. Her
blow-dries last and you always leave the salon with a style that looks done but
not over styled.
If you are in a
hurry try Emma's tip and add a dollop of mousse through the top
of your hair and leave to dry naturally. If you have fine, fluffy hair you will
need to blow-dry it, but you can do the top and just rough dry the underneath
as people won’t notice this area.
“Volume is back,” says Emma. “Some people will need more
than others, so take into consideration your face shape and height.” She
suggests using a large round bristle brush when styling. They don’t damage the
hair as much as heat-retaining ones.”
Another great idea - from her assistant Tyler - is to twist the hair as
you are blow-drying. It is easier than using a brush and will give you waves
and bring out the natural movement in your hair. “Decide what size sections you
want. You can take two large sections or smaller ones if your hair is shorter,”
says Emma. “This is an easy look to do at home and is a good look with this
season’s clothes.”
