4 Tips for Masking Greasy Hair
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/FullSizeRender-4-2.jpg

Greasy hair is a struggle for us all.  They say you’re not supposed to wash your hair every day, but when you don’t, your hair becomes a greasy mess!  Especially if you have thick hair like me, you know the struggle.  If you have this problem too, here are 5 tips that will help you out!

• Dry Shampoo. If you’ve never used dry shampoo, then get ready to be amazed! It does wonders for your hair.  Spray a little bit of this on your hair at any time of the day and it’ll give it the lift it needs.


• Baby Powder. If you don’t have any dry shampoo lying around, baby powder almost works just as well!  I found this trick hard to believe, but it really does work!  Sprinkle a small amount of powder around your scalp to disappear any grease your hair has.  It’s a cheap and quick method to substitute for dry shampoo!


• Hats and Headbands. As you can already guess, hats and headbands are the perfect cover-up for greasy hair.  They’re the key solution to any messy hair day, trust me!


• Braid it. Braiding the top of your hair makes for a cute hairstyle while still doing a good job of covering up dirty hair!  You can still look good on your way to class without worrying about it!

Have any other tips you can give me?  Share your tricks with me in the comments below!

5 Tips for Making Your Hair Look Fuller & Thicker

5 Tips for Making Your Hair Look Fuller & Thicker
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Chelsea-Crockett-Thick-Hair.jpg

Thick, luscious locks are something every girl desires.  When it comes to hair, you can pretty much determine its color, style, etc., but one thing you can’t change is how thick or thin it is!  Although you can’t actually “change” it, there are certain things you can do to make it appear thick and beautiful! 

• Switch your part to the opposite side.  Shifting your part can give the hair around your roots a little lift.  Since its not used to it, your hair will look thicker at the top!


• Condition your hair before you shampoo it.  This is said to give your hair a more textured look.  Try it out!


• “Pancake” your braid.  Pancaking your braid is a new technique that makes your braid look fuller like the picture on the right.  You basically tug and pull on your hair to loosen your braid after you’ve finished. 


• Use mousse.  Mousse isn’t only a guy’s products ladies!  It works beautifully when trying to give your hair a little extra lift and texture.


• Use dry shampoo even when your hair is clean.  As I’ve said before, texture can completely change the appearance of your hair.  Dry shampoo will give your roots an extra lift!

What tips would you add to the list?  Let me know and I’ll try them myself!

Reverse Hair Washing: What it is and Why It"s Good for You

Reverse Hair Washing: What it is and Why It"s Good for You
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Chelsea-Crockett-Reverse-Hair-Washing-What-it-is-and-Why-Its-Good-for-You-.jpg

There is a new beauty trend that is peaking my interest. It is called “reverse hair washing,” and it is exactly what it sounds like! The new trend is to wash your hair in the backwards order of what you usually do. Why in the world would you want to do that? Read on.

1. Why: So the science behind reverse hair washing is to decrease the residue that is left on your hair from using conditioner. When we shampoo first and then condition, we usually don’t get all of the conditioner out, and when this happens it weighs your hair down. This can cause your hair to be limp and heavy and not hold a curl or volume.
2. How you do it: Wet your hair completely. Then work conditioner throughout your hair and let it sit for a few minutes. Next, apply shampoo with the conditioner still in your hair. After lathering up, rinse it out like you normally would.

I have found that this method helps detangle my hair before I am even out of the shower. I wish I would have known about this when I had long hair!

XOXO, Chels

How to Shower Like A Pro

How to Shower Like A Pro
https://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/chelsea-crockett-how-to-shower-like-a-pro-.jpg
Showering may seem like second nature, and you probably do the same routine every time like clockwork. Knowing how to strategically shower can not only drastically improve your hygiene, it can also help you get shiny hair and clear skin! Here is how to shower like a pro.

1. Brush first: Brushing your hair before you shower can help prevent post-shower tangles, which can save your hair a world of breakage.


2. Rinse well: Before you start to shampoo your hair, rinse it off really well with warm water. It will loosen the dirt and oil and open the hair cuticle.


3. Lather Right: Shampooing your hair should take 30-60 seconds. You should gently massage the shampoo into your hair, but just at the roots. You should never scrub the ends because they are fragile.


4. Condition quick: Get all of the water off of your hair and then concentrate the conditioner on the ends of your hair. Then rinse it out right away.


5. Face last: Use the steam of the shower to your advantage! Your pores are open, so clean them out! Then rinse with cold water to close your pores.
   
   Now you can call yourself a shower pro! Did you figure out what you were doing right/wrong?

Purple Shampoo: For Blonds!

Purple Shampoo: For Blonds!
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/chelsea-crockett-purple-shampoo.jpg

I hear life as a blondie can be a struggle sometimes, especially if you are a natural brunette who dyes her hair blonde! Any girl who dyes her hair blonde on a regular basis will tell you what a hassle it is to maintain it and how dreadful the horrible brassy color is that can overtake the once frosty blonde hair. Are you a blondie in need of some hair revitalization? Try Purple shampoo!

What is it exactly?

It is literally shampoo in a deep shade of purple. The shampoo works to neutralize brassy, yellow tones that your hair can take on after a while of washing it and not getting touchups. When we wash our hair with purple shampoo, our hair absorbs a small amount of purple pigment, which cancels out red and yellow undertones, making your blue undertones higher. It basically brightens up the blonde by restoring your hair to its former cooler color. Using a purple shampoo can extend the life of your color! This means less trips to the salon and more money in your pocket!

How to use it?

Rinse your hair in warm water before using it so your hair shafts expand and allow more purple pigment to get in there. Work the shampoo into your hair and then let it sit for about 5 minutes. Rinse your hair in cool water which closes the hair shaft, sealing in the color. If you want, follow up with purple conditioner!

And, NO this shampoo will NOT turn your hair purple! I pinky promise.

Are you tired of having blonde hair that is the color of straw? Slap some purple shampoo on it! Problem solved.

XOXO, Chels

Top Unknown Damage to Your Hair

Top Unknown Damage to Your Hair
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Chelsea-Crockett-split-ends.jpg

Obvious actions like drying and straightening your hair can cause damage and split ends, but did you know there are a lot of other unknown ways that you’re damaging your hair?  Surprisingly, there are multiple actions that seem harmless, but can cause permanent damage to your hair.  Being aware of these things are extremely important.  I will break down a few of the most unhealthy hair habits to give you your most healthy hair yet.

• Be gentle when you brush wet hair.  Brushing through wet hair can cause damage and split ends.  It can also pull out a lot of hair, causing a loss in volume.  Start at the bottom with a wide-toothed comb and work your way to the scalp.  This will help prevent breakage and hair loss.


• Don’t wash your hair too much!  Shampooing your hair can too often can wash away your hair’s natural moisture.  This moisture gives your hair that healthy, shiny look!  You don’t want to wash that away!


• Ponytails create breakage.  Wearing a ponytail is always a cute and easy hair style, but wearing one every day with a tight pony tail holder can cause breakage.  This can even cause permanent damage!

Don’t commit one of these hair crimes!

Hair Myths Uncovered

Hair Myths Uncovered
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Chelsea-Crockett-hair-myths-uncovered.jpg

We’ve all heard those crazy myths about ways to make your hair shinier, grow longer, and how to get rid of those pesky split ends.   But how many of those myths that you read are actually true?  It’s time to find out what’s true and what’s false.

• Wearing tight ponytails can make your hair fall out or break. TRUE. Strands may break off as a result of your hair being pulled tight or held too tightly with a band. To decrease your chances, do not sleep with your hair up or wear it in a ponytail every day.


• Cold water makes your hair shinier. FALSE. Your hair does not contain living cells; therefore it cannot react to certain water temperatures.


• Using the same shampoo repeatedly will cause it to stop working. FALSE. Since it can be hard to find a shampoo that works for your hair type and texture, once you’ve found the one that works, then why change it?! Try a new shampoo for the sake of it will most likely not benefit your hair.


• Always use a wide-tooth comb for wet hair. TRUE. Using this type of comb will reduce breakage after you get out of the shower. Since wet hair tends to have more tangles, a wide-toothed comb will keep your hair from breaking.

Your hair is very important and knowing what’s best for it is even better!

Love,

Chelsea

Are You Shampooing Too Often?

Are You Shampooing Too Often?
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Chelsea-Crockett-shampooing-.jpg

Hi Insiders,

            Washing and conditioning your hair is obviously a great thing, but did you know that over washing your hair can actually be a problem?!  Every time you wash your hair, you’re striping your hair of its natural oils making it more prone to pick up extra oil throughout the day.  It can also cause your hair to be drier.  So next time you decided to hit the snooze button instead of washing your hair, don’t feel too bad about it!   

            Since washing your hair can actually make it more oily, it’s important to train your hair.  If you wash your hair every day, try washing it every other day instead.  Although it might start out by getting very oily, eventually it’ll quit being oily the second day.  Your hair will adapt to your shampooing schedule.  Also, pay attention to your hair type.  The thicker the hair, the more you need to wash it.  If you have fine hair, washing it 3 times a week would be just fine!  It’s important to know your hair.  If you can’t stand the thought of not washing your hair every day, then try using luke-warm water.  The hotter the water, the greater the chance you have of drying out your hair. 

            Next time you decide to wash your hair, pay attention to how it reacts!  Try training your hair so it becomes the healthiest hair it can be!

XOXO,

            Chels

Washing your Hair: You"re Doing it Wrong!

Washing your Hair: You"re Doing it Wrong!
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/chelsea-crockett-shampooing.jpg

Washing your hair: You’re doing it wrong! I had no idea that I was making so many mistakes! Here is an inside look on how to get the most out of your shower.

 1. If you have long hair, condition first.

Yes, you read right! If your hair is past your shoulders, you can protect your ends by running a small amount of conditioner through them and lightly rinsing, before you shampoo. This not only keeps your ends healthy, it will boost your shine! 

2. Lather up at the scalp

You really only need to lather up at your scalp! The hair closest to the scalp is the youngest and oiliest, and the hair at the ends is the oldest and driest! The best way to shampoo is from roots to ends.

5. Don’t rinse and repeat.
There is no need to wash your hair twice.  You can avoid stripping and drying out your hair by only shampooing once. If your hair is super oily, then you can lather up a second time.

I hope these tips give you shiny, voluminous hair, ladies!

XOXO, Chels
