Tip #8 Don’t Overdo It
Many of us are guilty of lathering our hair with too much shampoo. Perhaps we love the feeling of running our fingers through fluffy suds, or maybe we think that the more suds we have, the cleaner our hair. In reality, too much shampoo dries the hair and damages it. Not to mention this habit is downright wasteful. The same goes for conditioner. Many of us use a palm full of conditioner for our hair because we can’t resist that soft, slippery feeling of our wet locks. In truth, depending on how much hair you have, a dime-size amount of conditioner can have the same effect. A little goes a long way. By reducing the amount of shampoo and conditioner you use in your hair, you not only improve its condition, but you save product and save money.
Tip #9 Talk to Your Stylist
Next time you go to the salon, ask about their hair products. Many salons offer discounted hair products to their customers—all you have to do is ask. These products are likely to be of high quality and in large amounts if they’re used in the salon, which means you get more for your money. If your salon doesn’t offer discounted hair products, ask your stylist about good, inexpensive hair products that you can invest in.
Tip #10 Experiment with Cocktails
Many curly-haired women find that one product is never enough to do the job. A cocktail of hair products is often the solution. If you’re doing inventory and find that you have several products that don’t work, try mixing some together to see the results! Again, you don’t have to throw away a hair product if it doesn’t work. Extra measures can be taken to save your products and essentially save you money. Get creative, and play with different hair products before throwing them out.
