4 Quick Fixes for a Bad Hair Day

Are you having a bad hair day? Follow this quick fix I read at shine.com. Don't let your hair ruin your day, give it a fix!
Try these quick fixes from celebrity hairstylist Alyn Topper, of Bravo's Blowout.

1. Turn up the heat.
Tame any frizzy spots with a curling iron.

2. Take a dry shower.
Degrease hair by adding a little baby powder or dry shampoo (available at drugstores), then brush.

3. Make bangs behave.
Mist them with water; then, instead of brushing, blow-dry and use your fingers to flatten.


Still not working? Lift hair off your face for instant glamour. Rachael Ray's style pal, Gretta Monahan, suggests pulling a 2- to 3-inch section (use your eyebrow arches as markers) to the top of your head, leaving a little bump so it’s not taut. Then, place the bobby pins in an “X” shape to secure. Finish with a shot of hairspray.

Wow, nice tips. I have short hair, it's easier to manage and since it's layered, it's kind of stylish, but I don't have the time to kind of fix it all the time, only on special occasions. Thanks for coming to my site
