Focusing on your go-to style and simply adding a few small details to improve your finished look.

Our Favourite Hairstyling Secrets for your Strands

From beginner to advanced, no matter what style you’re creating these are our favourite hair tips to brush up on this season.

1. Finesse Volume with FRESH.HAIR

Contrary to popular belief, fine hair can actually be challenging to style. This is because the slightest amount of oil can cause your style to fall flat. For this reason, you’ll love using FRESH.HAIR dry shampoo on freshly styled strands to encourage volume and protect against the earliest signs of oil which can weigh your style down.

In addition to this, FRESH.HAIR can also be used as a precursor to up styles to create a strong foundation. This styler will give your base grit and hold for voluminous ponytails, structured braids or full up styles.

2. Add BODY.BUILDER To Your Curls

While curly hair is known for its volume, sometimes it can get bogged down around the scalp area. It is important to build volume at the roots because this directs your entire style. By building body before you air or diffuse dry, you’ll notice bouncy curls with enhanced movement.

For best results on freshly washed hair, apply BODY.BUILDER at the new growth area followed by KILLER.CURLS throughout the mids and ends and then dry with a diffuser.

3. Spritz SESSION.SPRAY to Keep Accessories in Place

There has been an influx in hair accessories this season. From headbands to scarves and barrettes. The insider secret that can improve any accessorised hairstyle is by learning how to use hairstyle with your accessories.

When wearing a headband, a smooth, sleek finish is ideal. Prior to inserting your headband, spray a brush with hairspray and comb your hairstyle back or with your part to tame flyaways and create a more structured finish. This ensures that when you wear your headband, you’re able to let the silhouette shine.

Barrettes are a tricky accessory to style. This is because depending on your hair type and desired style, they can easily fall. Where you’ll be applying your barrette, spritz SESSION.SPRAY and backcomb slightly to create a foundation. Then spray a light dusting of SESSION.SPRAY on the clip of your barrette to ensure it stays put wherever you place it. This trick can also be used when using bobby pins to secure your style.
