HOW TO STYLE:

With a long shape face you need to be extra careful when choosing a hairstyle to suit your long face. This cute short hair has a fringe that will help make your face not appear any longer than it already is. Without a doubt this short style will surely make your long face look beautiful. You can style it as the steps below describe;

Start by washing hair; first of all you must have clean hair before applying anything to it, applying styling products to dirty hair will make your hair look messy and ugly. Therefore before you add any product be it sprays, hair oil and which ever products you choose you should first wash your hair thoroughly clean. But remember having clean hair does not mean washing it daily you can wash it two or three times a week this will keep your hair safe and clean.

Apply styling product; before applying styling products to your hair please leave your hair wet, applying styling products to dry hair will entangle your hair making it hard to brush or comb.

Blow dry hair; use a round styling brush to blow dry hair, you need to blow dry all sides of the hair to make it really smooth. Keep the blow dry a reasonable distance from your hair for best results.

Make use of your fingers; after using the round brush, use your fingers to blow dry. Simply pass your fingers through your hair as you blow dry.

RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS:

To straighten your hair like the lady in the photo above, you can use Remington S5500 Digital Anti Static 1 Inch Ceramic Hair Straightener, it comes with floating plates which heat up in only 30 seconds, and basically it will save you a lot of time and give you quick results.

HOW TO CARE:

Cut the hair; the best way to maintain short hair is to cut it regularly, you can cut your hair every after three weeks to remove any split ends that make your hair look untidy and to keep it well levelled.

Wash your hair often; short hair needs constant washing to keep it clean. Often  does not mean over washing your hair, it simply means washing it every after three days but take note not to wash your hair more than five times a week .

Try using accessories; add some bit of detail to your hair by using accessories, the list of accessories is endless so you can try head bands, hair clips, some hair twists these will definitely give your short hair that smart detail.

Get rid of excessive combing; since your hair is short even when you don’t comb it you still look smart, why suffer with combing your hair daily if it can look good even when you don’t comb it?

Keep heat tools at reasonable distance while using them; make sure you place your blow drier or flat iron a distance away from your scalp, the heat from these heat tools will make your scalp dry which is dangerous for your hair, it will also make it more expensive for to buy products to fix your damaged hair.

Trim your hair frequently;  the best way to keep your short hair on the same level and free from split ends is by trimming your hair frequently. By frequently I mean you should visit a stylist every three or four weeks.

Air dry the hair; due to the tough material that is used to make towels, sometimes its better to air dry, just leave your hair to dry naturally because when you twist your hair in a towel it could damage your hair.

Black hair complements any skin color so you don’t have to worry about if black hair will suit you.

This hair style is very simple to style and will work for all occasions. It will save you a lot of time as you don’t have to much time styling it, the medium length bangs on the side will flatter your face with a wider look. The steps below will help you to style your hair like in the picture;

Comb your hair before you wash it; use a wide tooth comb through your hair to remove any tangles that may become hard for you to remove after washing your hair.

Use a paddle brush to blow dry; blow dry hair with a paddle brush, get medium strands of your hair and blow dry, repeat the process until entire head is done.

Apply a thermal protectant; since the hairstyle needs you to blow dry and iron you realise that you are going to use two heat tools so you will need to use a thermal protectant to protect your hair and scalp from the damage of heat tools.

Apply a spray to make hair shiny; a nice hair spray will make your hair firm and shiny throughout the day.

RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS:

Applying hair gloss treatment will make your hair free of any frizzes you can try the L’Oreal Paris Colorist Secrets Shine Gloss Hair Treatment by L’Oreal Paris  will infuse each strand of your hair with the boost of conditioning. You can prepare the treatment in only 10 minutes, it is self explanatory that the gloss will be save a lot of your time.

HOW TO CARE;

Dampen your hair until it is wet before you apply shampoo; ensure that you apply shampoo to hair after making it totally wet because water dilutes the acids in shampoo so it will reduce the damage the acids can cause to your hair. Applying shampoo to dry hair is not advisable.

How to use conditioner; after using shampoo your hair will not be soft enough therefore you will need to condition it to make it soft, leave the conditioner in for about 5 minutes and then wash it thoroughly. Use pure clean water to rinse your hair to remove all the conditioner.

Make sure your hair is completely dry; before your think of combing or brushing your hair make sure it is completely dry. Never comb your hair when  it is still wet because over time it will gradually weaken and start to break.

Avoid keeping conditioner in your hair for too long;  most conditioners contain a lot of acidic ingredients so keeping conditioner in your hair for too long weakens your hair. Reconsider the mentality that keeping conditioner in your hair for too long is a way to make it soft.
