Do not make four strands side by side. As you braid, hold the right strands (top and bottom) in your right hand and the left strands (top and bottom) in your left hand. I pass the strands between my middle to pinky fingers and then use my index finger and thumb to put the strands back and forth as I braid.Step 3.

Shampoo Tips
2007-08-31 17:08:00 1. Don't drown in shampoo. One sudsing with a quarter-size squeeze will be fine.2. Don't vigorously rub braids or weaves but do rinse in cascades of water to clean.3. Do wash more frequently if you have itching, flaking or dandruff. These conditions are not due to dryness.4. Do thoroughly rinse out conditioner, or the residue will dirty your hair faster.5. Don't wash hair more often than you need to. Contrary to advertising, hair types with a dry tendency (for example gray or African-American hair) may need washing only once a week.6. Don't use the hottest setting on the hair dryer; use it over time, it's damaging.7. Do allow hair sometimes to air-dry, then arrange it with your fingers. Use gels, mousses and lotions to calm it.8. Don't brush wet hair. Use a wide-tooth comb, starting at the bottom, to ease out tangles. More About: Tips , Shampoo , Sham
Static Hair - Get Rid Of It
2007-08-24 21:51:00 With very long hair, electrostatic can be a real burden. Your hair either sticks to everything, or really flees your head - creating those awful fly-aways. What do to? Well, there are several ways to help you.Static can be very strong in wintertime. The reason for it is the dry air - with temperatures below freezing point, the air inside our homes gets very dry due to the heating. Get yourself one of those humidifiers, several models are available in the price range from like USD 25 up to quite some more bucks. They evaporate normal drain water, either by cooking small amounts of water, or by ultrasonic vapor mechanisms. There is no difference in the effect, except the ultrasonic types produce kind of a cold fog, and the cooking devices produce steam (careful here, don't touch the outcoming steam).By using a humidifier, you get the air in your home back to normal humidity levels, and you will find that with increased humidity, the static will be reduced.

Curly hair
2007-05-18 17:23:00 Curly hair can be very susceptable to frizzies. You can tame normal hair by a leave in conditioner, or something to that effect. But to my mind, the best way of keeping frizzies down is a light spritz of light hair spray, and when it get's dry, run your fingers through it. Not only does the hair spray hold nice zig-zag parts, but it also cozes the firzzies to stay down.Curly hair becomes the curliest when it's wet. When your hair is only washed every other day, it's hard to keep those nice ringlettes perfect. One of the good ways of doing so is when it's wet, put it in nice curles that only loosen when brushed. I keep my hair down all day the first day, and in a "up condition" the second, or a braid.Keeping curly hair can be a tough task. Sometimes you want them just to be straightened. I make my curles straight with a conair steam straitner. First, I dry my hair completely, and brush it with a boars bristled brush. I put my hair in a braid, and leave the braid over the night. W...

Age and gray hair
2007-05-18 17:07:00 Gray hair represents the loss of pigmentation. It's wiry because it's sheathed in more cuticle than most hair. How good you look with gray hair is determined by its texture vis-a-vis the rest of your hair, plus how it goes with the tone of your skin and eyes. Graying hair is the start of a natural lightening process to which you should adapt the colors of your clothes and makeup. If you opt to go gray, sample a "blue" shampoo to inhibit yellowing. Try leave-in conditioners and moisturizers to soften coarseness. Consider having a professional add "lowlights" (streaking of your original color) to give shading to gray areas. Observe the pattern of graying (some heads gray all over, some acquire streaks, some gray grows in to frame the face) and have your stylist shape it to celebrate it. If you opt to color your hair, pick a tone one shade or two lighter than your original color. Going too light or too dark will make you look older. To test the look, try a semi-permanent solution tha... More About: Hair , Gray

Twist the first side section over your hand into a sausage shape and secure along its length with fine pins.2. Sweep the second side section over the first and secure.3. Arrange top hair so it sweeps over the crown, ends secured into the original pleat.

2007-05-15 13:30:00 1. Brush hair carefully and evenly to the point on the crown or the nape of the neck where you want the chignon to rest. Secure into a pony tail using a coated elastic band or a piece of thin ribbon.2. Twist the pony tail into a spiral, using both your hands.3. Coil the pony tail down around the base, making it as large or as small as your hair length dictates. Tuck the loose ends into the outside edge of the chignon and pin carefully, using fine hairpins.
Fighting flyaway
2007-05-14 13:38:00 When the air is dry or there's low humidity, hair loses water to the surrounding air and dries out. Dry hair builds up negative electricity (hair is predominantly negatively charged to begin with) and all those negative charges repel neighboring hairs, resulting in flyaway. Fine hair tends to get flyaway more than super thick locks because if individual hairs repel one another it's more obvious to the eye when hair is sparse. Sparse hair also dries out more quickly.Most flyaway problems occur in the winter when their own static electricity. The simplest way to eliminate flyaway is to add water back and avoid products that tend to dry out hair.DO shampoo your hair with a moisturizing or conditioning shampoo.DO use a cream rinse after shampooing. Cream rinses reduce static electricity and flyaway because they keep hair from getting too dry.DON'T overuse heat styling appliances. Using a blow-dryer everyday on a hot setting and then wrapping your hair in hot rollers will only dam-fly... More About: Fighting , Away

Another way would be to gently wind her hair around her neck loosely like a scarf, and she puts her coat on over that. You don't want her to get her long hair caught under her coat, or have to sit on it.If you are helping her into a car, you might help by gently picking her hair up and bringing it around to her front, so she can keep control of it. You don't want to shut her hair in the car door.Be careful in crowds, because people will come right up and start touching her hair; if one of these people has a cigarette in their hand and they aren't paying attention ... you know what might happen.

Ten Best Tips to Liven Up Long Hair
2007-05-03 14:56:00 If you're worried about dull, frazzled over the frizzies, lifeless-looking locks, or frustrated about how to get your hair in shape, then you're not alone. These concerns share many women, who wear shoulder-length or longer hair. Unless you were born perfectly beautiful, great looking hair doesn't just happen. Getting it into shiny and healthy condition takes a commitment to continuing care.

Even if you 've neglected your hair in the past, it's never too late to get to the root of the problems that are associated with it.One reason long hair requires extra care is because it becomes more fragile with age.

Hair Types
2007-05-03 14:54:00 Most of us know if our hair is straight, wavy; or curly, but when it comes to fine and thick, there seems to be some confusion. Fine, medium, and coarse refer to the diameter of the individual strands of hair, or its texture. Thin to thick refers to density; or the actual number of hairs per square inch on your head. Compare your hair to a few of your friends' hair and your type will become immediately evident. In general, classic Scandinavian hair is fine and classic Asian hair tends to be coarse. Hair that's in between is of medium texture. If you pull your hair into a ponytail and there's barely an inch of total diameter, your hair is thin. If you have a big, full handful of ponytail, your hair is thick. Hair can be anything from super straight to excessively curly. When selecting a cut based on hair texture, the rules of illusion apply, just as they do with facial shapes. A good haircut can control unruly curl or make fine, straight hair look thicker.

Hair From Scientific Point of View
2007-05-03 14:51:00 Hair is actually dead material when it leaves it's root - otherwise it would hurt very much when your hairdresser works with his scissor. Most people know that, but do you know about these facts: A blonde head of hair has usually much more strands than red or dark haired heads. Hair consists mainly of keratin, which is also responsible for the elasticity of fingernails. A single hair has a thickness of 0.02 - 0.04mm, so that 20 - 50 hair strands next to each other make one millimeter. Hair is strong as a wire of iron. It rips after applying a force equivalent to 60kg, only after it stretched itself for about 70%. Even on a good hair day, everyone loses at least 40 to 100 strands. The average scalp has 100,000 strands, or just fewer than 1000 per square inch. We are born with all our hair follicles. Some are programmed to grow pigmented hair (as on our scalp) up to 3 feet in length. In America in '96, 38 million men and 19 million women experience common hair loss determined by he...

The professionals agree:there is much that can be done, but how much control we have over our hair depends on several factors. Heredity is a key element here.
