Lisa Goodwin+Follow5 Things Professional Hairstylists Would Never Do to Their Own HairWe all have our hair routines — but when the pros talk, we listen. Hairstylists say there are a few things they absolutely avoid when it comes to their own hair. If you’re guilty of one or two of these, don’t worry — we’ve all been there. Here are 5 things to skip, according to the experts 👇 1️⃣ Conditioner on the roots Your scalp is where oil and buildup collect — conditioner belongs on the mid-lengths and ends, where dryness and damage live. 2️⃣ Skipping conditioner altogether Worried about feeling weighed down? There’s a formula out there for everyone. Just like your skin needs moisturizer, your hair needs hydration — especially if it’s color-treated. 3️⃣ Only using sulfate-free shampoo Sulfate-free shampoos are great for gentle cleansing, but sulfates can help give your scalp a deep clean now and then. It’s all about balance. 4️⃣ Drying ends before roots Always dry the roots first. If you don’t, leftover moisture from the scalp will travel down and re-wet the ends — which means more heat damage and time wasted. 5️⃣ Wearing too-tight styles too often Heavy tension from tight braids or weaves can cause long-term damage like thinning or bald patches. Loosen up — your scalp will thank you. #HairTips #StylistApproved #HairCareMistakes #HairCare #HairHacks #NoMoreFrizz 1976Share

InvisibleInkling+FollowDIY Triangle Bangs: Avoid the Lopsided ‘V’ Disaster!Ever tried cutting your own bangs and ended up with a crooked mess? 🙋♀️ Been there! Here’s how to nail those edgy triangle (aka ‘V’) bangs without the regret: 💡 Start by sectioning off just the right amount of hair—too much and you’ll look like you’re wearing a helmet, too little and the ‘V’ disappears. Use clips to keep the rest out of your way. 📌 Wet your bang section and comb it forward. Visualize your dream ‘V’—this is your blueprint! ⚠️ Snip slowly! Always cut less than you think you need. Begin at your temple, angle toward your nose, and repeat on the other side. Trust me, you can always trim more, but you can’t glue it back! ✅ Blow dry with a round brush, then fine-tune any strays. Want extra polish? A quick pass with a straightener or a spritz of hairspray keeps your ‘V’ sharp all day. Would you dare to DIY your bangs, or do you leave it to the pros? #FashionDIY #ContentCreation #PersonalBranding #HairHacks #StyleStorytelling #Beauty #HairCare00Share
AzureAspen+FollowStruggling With Flat Hair? My Go-To Backcombing Hack for Instant Volume!Ever spent ages styling your hair, only for it to fall flat before you even leave the house? Been there! Here’s how I finally nailed backcombing for that full, bouncy look—without the frizz or damage. 💡 Start with clean, volumized hair: Use a volumizing (not moisturizing!) shampoo and a light conditioner only if your hair is dry. Why? Heavy products weigh hair down and kill the lift before you even start. 📌 Product is your friend: Work a volumizing mousse through damp roots, then flip your head and blow-dry on low. This gives you a weightless base to build on. ✅ Backcomb in small sections: Hold hair straight up, then gently tease from mid-shaft to roots. Don’t worry if it looks wild—smooth the top layer with a soft brush for a polished finish. ⚠️ Don’t overdo it! Too much teasing can cause breakage. Focus on areas that need the most oomph, like your crown or fringe. Ready to try it?

GossamerGale+FollowDIY Hair Extensions: Save Money & Get Salon Results at Home!Ever felt sticker shock at the price of hair extensions? Same! That’s why I started making my own—and trust me, it’s easier than you think. 💡 Here’s how I learned to skip the salon and still get that full, fabulous hair: 📌 Halo Extensions: Grab hair wefts, bonding glue, and clear fishing line. Measure the weft to fit the back of your head, glue 2–3 layers for thickness, then tie the monofilament like a headband. Why it matters: Halos are comfy and damage-free—no clips tugging at your roots! 📌 Clip-Ins: Layer wefts for volume, then sew or glue on color-matched clips. Pro tip: Tease your roots and spritz with hairspray before clipping in—this keeps them secure all day. ⚠️ Biggest mistake? Mismatched color! Always check in natural light and blend with your own hair for a seamless look. Ready to try halo or clip-ins first?
