Latest hair style and hair care questions

What can I do differently to make my red colored hair stop fading so fast?

Firstly, professional color products tend to not fade as fast as pharmacy brands. Also, using a good color shampoo and conditioner will help a lot. I recommend the color line from KMS. It keeps your color strong and moisturizes very well too. Try not to wash your hair every day. If you can, wash it once every two to three days.

How can I get my fine thin hair to have more volume?

One way to get more volume is to ask your hair dresser to cut your hair with some layers. Not weighing down the top so much will help it to lift up on its own a bit. When styling, use a volumizing mousse. I use Add Volume Styling Foam from KMS.

I have curly/wavy hair and no matter what I do, it always looks like a triangle on my head. What can I do to get rid of this?

The best way to get a good shape to your hair is to add a few layers. It will eliminate the "triangle" effect of a straight cut and make it look rounder.

I want to camouflage my grey hair but Im not ready to permanantly color my whole head. What are my options?

Your best option would be to put a few highlights in your hair. There are so many options of colors depending on what look youre going for, the possibilities are endless!

Ive heard a lot of people say that cutting your hair helps it to grow faster. Is this true?

Absolutely! Even if its only a little trim, you should get your hair cut every two months. When you get spilt ends at the bottom, they can work their way up to the root, making your hair grow slower. So even just the smallest trim will make a difference!

How do I keep my "tends to be frizzy" hair straight after styling?

The best thing to use is a smoothing lotion or serum. I have two that I love to use most; Smooth Operator by Schwartzkopf which can be used before or after blowdrying (I would reccomend both for really unruly hair) and Super Skinny Serum by Paul Mitchell which is used on damp hair before styling. As a bonus it also cuts your drying time.
