Hair Help - Fix Hair Disasters

Hair disasters can give many headaches and ruin your whole day.
Whatever the situation, keep in mind that there's always a solution to fix the problem but that doesn't mean that the solution will be a quick and easy one.

Perm Disasters

If you tried to perm your hair at home and nothing good came out of it, you've probably done it incorrectly.
You should get professional help to re-perm your hair. Don't do it again by yourself because it's possible you've already damaged your hair.

If after perming your hair at home and you hair is too curly or frizzy use a thick deep conditioner cream twice a week! With the conditioner on comb your hair from the roots toward the ends.
After 5 minutes rinse well and roll your hair on large rollers. Let it air dry. If it doesn't work go to a professional and get a reverse perm.

Bad Hair Color

If your color came out wrong and it simply doesn't look good, you can use color removing products. They can be purchased from beauty supply stores and can only be used to remove permanent or semi-permanent hair color.
If you've bleached your hair and it came out brassy and orange, get professional help because you risk severe hair damage when trying to fix it.

Bad Haircuts

If you've cut your hair too short there is not much you can do but to wait to grow back.
You can either wear a wig or if you have sufficient hair left you can get hair extensions.

Uneven Layers

If your layers are not even you have 3 options. You can either cut the longer layers to match the short ones. You can wait until your short layers grow or you can find hairstyles that hide your uneven layers.

Wrong Highlights

If your highlights are too obvious you can use semi-permanent dyes, that wash out after a few shampooings or you can see a specialist that can help you fix it.

Bad Styling

If you've styled your hair curly and you're not happy about the result, flip your head upside down, spray a bit of water onto the lengths and brush your hair from roots to end. Use a styling product and style it with your fingers and put on a headband.
If your hair is straight and seems lifeless pull your hair into a ponytail, by creating a bit of volume at the crown.
