Bad hair day. We washed our hair the day before and this morning, the roots are (already) oily or/and flattened. Which gives us a piou head ejected from the nest. Conclusion:after having tried to take off the volume with a blow of creping, we look like a cuckoo clock.
Happy day. We like modern styling powders, with their light formulas (which do not plaster the hair) between dry shampoo and strong hold. Farewell creping! They absorb sebum and provide volume, long-lasting hold and a matte effect (oily and fine hair will appreciate it).
The right gesture. We sprinkle on the roots (the powder liquefies) before crumpling with the fingers. We increase the volume by brushing the locks vertically while drying the roots with lukewarm air then with cold air.
Bad hair day. A brush in one hand, the hair dryer in the other… Even when you are an expert, the brush-sessions are the equivalent of a Koh-Lanta for the arms. And it's (even) worse if you have long hair.
Happy day. Blower brushes now help us reduce the time spent and the acrobatic manipulations:a single multifunction device to brush, smooth and obtain smooth and well-rolled locks, effortlessly (yes, yes, we tested).
The right gesture. After separating the hair into several sections, roll the brush under each strand, then over it to fix and shine. Then, holding the brush vertically, roll it to the tips to give a rounded motion. A flick of the “fresh air” button fixes the movement.
Bad hair day. Curls that get tangled, frizz that gets involved, thick unruly hair... The obligation of daily brushing or fringe touch-ups (admit that you have a straightener at the office!) otherwise they go into a spin, frankly, it's exhausting. Not to mention the waste of time.
Happy day. After the permanent Japanese smoothing (which radically stiffens) and the Brazilian smoothing (a deep reconstructive treatment), here is finally the Korean, a mix of 40% smoothing agents + keratin. Result:curls and crimps are gently softened with a treatment, then heated to create a custom "wavy". They remain perfectly disciplined for several months, with no “root” effect. Bank. From 300 to 650 € on estimate.
