Hairstyles for your unwashed locks!

We know that washing hair can be a quite a chore, and sometimes there is just no time! While we love having clean hair, washing hair every day can be malnurishing for your locks, and when it comes to holding a hairstyle – sometimes having unwashed hair is better!
Here are 5 fast looks that work perfectly on day-old locks!

Messy Ponytail

Gently pulling hair back from the face will reduce any oil visibility 
Add some definition by curling random sections of your hair, Decide whether you want high, low or side ponytail – then gather your hair together and secure it with a hair tie. Make sure it looks messy and effortless (don’t pull the hair to tight and sleek, or it will look greasy!).
You can add a volumising spray for some extra texture, and you can also take a small section from the bottom of your pony tail, wrap it around the hair tie and secure it with a clip – this will create a more polished look.



















Natural beach waves

Use your unwashed strands to your advantage as they hold curls longer than squeaky-clean locks.
Apply a dry shampoo to absorb residual oil from your scalp – massage it into your scalp and then use a blow-dryer on your roots to add extra volume. Use a curling iron to create natural waves around your hair – and once you are finished, tousle your hair at the roots to blend the sections.
You can use your fingers to comb through the curls to loosen them if they are too tight and perfect. It’s a super easy look to play with!
 

















Touch up your blow-dry

Hair always looks like perfection when we leave the hairdressers - Revive your limp strands without adding any product!
Flat hair accumulates more oil than volumised hair – so if you are paying a visit to your hairdresser, ask them to add a lot of volume! Use a dry shampoo to absorb oil from your roots, and then use a flat iron or curler on sections of your hair that may look limp – don’t go for super straight strands, but rather try to emphasize the style that was already created for you and then finish with a light hold hairspray.

Simple braid

Add texture while hiding the grease!
Absorb any excess oil with dry shampoo, gather the hair into one side and make a simple braid. Put the braid over your shoulder and secure the back with bobby pins to keep it in place. Then add a hairspray to tame fly aways!
 

















Tousled bun

An easy way to hide your part line, and the obvious oil on the roots!

Dry shampoo is perfect to absorb the oil, get some texture by adding some random curls into your hair (or you can even create a small braid on the side of your head) and then gather the hair and twist it into a messy bun. Secure the look with bobby pins and you are ready to go!



















Yours in beautiful hair xx

  1. Sometimes messy hair are for posing for photo shoot. But in reality I don't think anybody would want their hair to look messy. I want to add to the value of this article that using Gooseberry Juice everyday on an empty stomach will give you lustrous hair. I have been drinking this juice for about one month and have begun to see some good changes in my hair.

  2. Really curious to know - do you use any animal derivatives in your products. I know the keratin comes from sheep wool. What about the collagen?

  5. Keratin is the main structure building protein in our hair and nails. This protein contains many different amino acids and is responsible for making hair super tough and extremely elastic.
