Limp Locks

Q: “My hair is super fine and goes limp in the heat. How can I keep it from drooping?”

By Candy

A: Nothing is worse than your fabulous ‘do falling flat before a night out. Truth is, fine hair suffers when your roots become damp and heavy with excessive sweat and oil produced by an overheated scalp. Prevent deflation by adding body at your scalp with a volumizing root-booster spray. Try V05 Volume! Blast, an instant root-lifter for great volume, $3.50, at drugstores. If the ‘do does deflate and more lift and body are needed, bend over and spray with a light-hold volumizing hairspray. Concentrate the hairspray at the roots because volume stems from the scalp. We suggest Samy Skyscraper volumizing hairspray, $9, at drugstores and supermarkets. Not only will it maximize volume and fullness; it contains UV absorbers to protect color from fading. It’s also humidity-resistant, to keep frizz out and shine in. We like that.
