You have already tried every hairstyle that could possibly come to your mind and your hair still doesn’t get any better – congratulations! You’re having a bad hair day. On one of these days when the hair is nothing but complete and utter disaster, what can possibly be done to make it at least presentable?
Get Yourself A Dry Shampoo
On days when the hair feels extra greasy or lackluster, a dry shampoo works like a quick-fix. Dry shampoos are formulated to absorb excess oil from the hair and add volume to dull roots without having to wash it. A quality product such as GK Hair Vegan Dry Shampoo comes in handy on bad hair days and gives a gentle lift to your hair. Its all-natural formula absorbs sebum and excess oil without leaving any product residue behind.
Or You Can Wash Half Your Hair
People with bangs, fringes, or basically any haircut that gets oilier from the front, this is for you. Get your hair on the sink and wash only the face framing section of your hair. This will give your hair a cleaner, fresher look which will automatically divert the attention from the rear part of your head.
Embrace Your Hair Texture
Here’s a protip for you: If you feel like your hair isn’t doing well for the day, don’t try to play around with different hairstyles and looks. It just won’t work. For instance, if your hair is frizzy, don’t go off and try to tame it with a flat-iron. It will only prove to be counterproductive since the heat from the tool is only going to make your hair frizzier. It’s always better to embrace your natural hair texture. If your hair feels extra-greasy, throw in some gel and hairspray and do a sleek ponytail/bun. If your hair looks frizzy, a messy bun or a braid might be a good idea.
Throw In A Few Accessories
Nothing says “good hair day” quite like a few accessories glamorizing your hair. If the front looks super greasy, a bandana or headband would do the trick nicely. SImilarly, for hair that’s falling out, a few cute, rightly-placed bobby pins would make a huge difference in otherwise a disastrous look. If a hair bun seems too basic, replace your hair tie with a scrunchie. Accessories are a great way to instantly amp up your bad hair look and take it up a notch.
Try A Few DIY Hair Hacks
Oftentimes, a bad hair day only comes in the form of unmanageable baby hairs and flyaways. Here’s a hack to deal with this. Spritz on a hairspray on a toothbrush and run it through your hair to seal flyaways in place and give your hairdo a neat finishing look. Also, if greasy hair is an issue and Vegan dry shampoo isn’t handy, use a talcum powder instead to get a voluminous, grease-free look.
