Word Count: 910 Hair Care Products and The 7 Deadly Sins of Hair
We spend thousands of pounds on hair care products, hundreds on hairdressers
but when it comes down to basics, nearly all of us are guilty of sinning against
our hair.
These are the deadly sins that we commit to our hair on a regular, if not daily,
basis and the know-how of becoming an angelic angel rather than a devious devil
when it comes to looking after your locks.
Gluttony – over indulge if you dare!
We’ve all done it – piled on the hair care products, whether it is serum,
hairspray or mousse, and then used a hair dryer or strengtheners to finish the
look. Over styling can lead to dry, damaged hair and wet products can coat the
hair shaft with gunk, making the end result a greasy mess. Instead, avoid over
styling by using our philosophy that less is definitely more, and it is always
better to use hair care products specifically suited to your hair type. Vidal
Sassoon’s Hair Hydration range is kinder to your hair as it uses revolutionary
ionic technology to style hair without drying it out, so you can use them
morning, noon and night.
The Vidal Sassoon angel says: go easy on the product!
Sloth – the devil makes work for idle hands!
If your idea of looking after your new hair colour is to use just any hair care
products, then you could unknowingly be damaging your hair and limiting your new
colour. Hair, just like skin, needs moisturizing and pampering and hair
colouring needs protecting. So don’t be lazy and treat those locks with a deep
conditioning treatment at least once a week. Use the Toni&Guy Tourmaline colour
lock tools to really look after your colour so that it oozes healthiness and
shine, making you look and feel great inside and out.
The Toni&Guy angel says: make the effort use colour lock tourmaline hair
tools!
Lust – a little bit of what you fancy does you good!
If you are the sort of person that looks through magazines and lusts over the
fabulous hairstyles of the rich and famous, then lust no more! Hairdryers,
straighteners and stylers have been transformed over recent years so that anyone
can recreate those celebrity hairdos. For example, if you love Christina
Aguilera’s curly look then Vidal Sassoon has the answer with the latest Hot Tool
rollers – they can’t promise to give you the money or the fame that Christina
has, but they can certainly give you the hairstyle!
The Vidal Sassoon angel says: let others lust after you!
Anger - don’t look back!
So, your getting ready for a big night out and you are having a bad hair day –
aaaggghh! Your hair just won’t do what you want it to and you can feel the anger
and frustration starting to build up. If things are going badly, calm yourself
down, take things slowly and work with your hair not against it. If you want to
wear your hair down but things aren’t going your way, try putting it up into a
casual low-slung ponytail and add a few ringlets to frame your face using the
brilliant Ribbon Curls from Vidal Sassoon.
The Vidal Sassoon angel says: turn on, tune in and go out!
Pride – without prejudice!
When it comes to your hair, it is always important to remember not to be too
proud to take the advice of friends and hair stylists – they may see things you
don’t! If you have spent years straightening your hair and your stylist suggests
a change, why not try it! For the best drying power around, try Toni&Guy’s Joy
Stick control dryer that gives you the ultimate in controlled styling with 7
heat and speed settings.
The Toni&Guy angel says: take pride in your appearance!
Envy – don’t be that little green-eyed monster!
Have you got a best friend that always has an up-to the minute ‘do’, whether it
is curls one week or a blunt fringe the next? Well now it’s your turn! With all
those appliances and products out there, there is no reason why you shouldn’t be
the height of fashion either. Whether it is the straight look you are after or
big bouncy curls, you’ve got no excuse so get styling now!
The Helen of Troy angel says: be the envy of all your friends visit
www.hot-uk.co.uk for the top brands in hair care products.
Greed – don’t hair binge!
You don’t need to go to the salon to achieve a salon finish; all you need to do
the ‘do’ at home is the right products. Vidal Sassoon’s Hot Tools range,
previously only available to professionals; have all the products you are
looking for. Each appliance in the range boasts professional features and allows
you to achieve that ‘just stepped out of a salon’ look in the comfort of your
own home.
The Vidal Sassoon angel says: don’t let greed get the better of you!
So, now we have shown you how to banish those hair sins, there is no excuse to
be anything but an angelic angel and enter into hair heaven.
