Bad Hair Day? Tips for Bad Hair Days!

Men and women around the world have bad hair days, which is when our hair doesn�t lay like we would want it to, or when our hair just doesn�t look as good as we think it should. Sometimes you can prevent a bad hair day just by using the tips and ideas we have compiled for you. If you have other problems with you hair, like static, if you want to color your hair, or if you have a problem with your hair you want to solve, you can find many answers through the Tipking.com where users share tips on cleaning, washing, and caring for your hair. 

A great hair day is just a few steps away if you make a routine for yourself. Following a routine of washing your hair, cutting your hair, and caring for your hair is basically what you need for a continued great hair day. Let�s start with your scalp and talk a bit about how washing your hair can hurt or help your scalp. 

When you wash your hair you need to wet your hair first. Wetting your hair and putting shampoo directly on your wet hair and working the shampoo into your scalp, scrubbing the soap onto your scalp is going to help wash out oils, control dandruff, and this method is going to work on getting hairspray and such out of your hair. Putting the shampoo directly onto your scalp and then working it out and scrubbing your hair can leave shampoo on your scalp causing additional dandruff, and causing your hair to be heavier as it is not as clean. 

Smaller amounts are needed on the ends of your hair as this is one part of your hair that will wash out easily, removing hair spray and gel without much soap. If you have longer hair, you should try not to squeeze the ends of your hair too much but to slide your hand over your hair to remove excessive water. Squeezing your hair promotes breaking hair follicles leaving you with hair that is frizzy and often uneven after a few weeks without a hair trim. 

Longer hair is going to require some amount of conditioner. For your scalp, you shouldn�t need conditioner at all. Putting too much conditioner on your hair, without rinsing good is going to leave your hair heavy and oily feeling. If you have longer hair, hair that is longer than your shoulders, you might not want to wash your hair upside down as this is going to give you more tangles than if you were standing up and letting your hair fall as it normally would. 

From the roots of your hair, �go out� about two inches and then apply conditioner. Conditioner is only needed from the ends of your hair to the mid portions of your hair so you get the tangles out without leaving too much conditioner in your hair. 

The products that you use on your hair is going to have a lasting effect on how good your hair looks and performs for your daily. A shampoo that contains a lot of �waxes� will leave your hair straighter, thinner and often heavier than other types of shampoo. If you have oily hair, staying away from shampoos that contain a lot of waxes will leave your hair cleaner feeling and not as oily so you can make it style as you want without much of the hassle. 

On the other hand, if you have very dry hair, a shampoo or conditioner with more wax, and additional oil products added will control your frizzys so you can style your hair in a more manageable fashion. To learn more about what type of hair type you have, don�t wash your hair in the morning. If your hair is very greasy feeling towards lunch time, you have an oily hair type. If your hair feels good and light most of the day, you don�t have a problem with oil. If you always seem to have frizzy hair even after a hair cut, your hair may be very dry. 

Products that can make your senses come alive when you care for your hair include scents. You should be aware that every scent is going to react and smell differently with every person hair and chemical make up, but using scented shampoo can make your over all feeling of how you look different and make you feel as if you are having a great hair day!

A few of the types of scents which are in many of the shampoos made today include that of herbal scents, fruits, and natural scents such as rain, trees, and roses, mint, rosemary, chamomile and aloe vera. 

Hair products that are old, and that are outdated can affect how you style your hair. Old products that have lost their 100% ability to clean and style your hair can leave you with a bad hair day. Watch the dates, the expiration dates, when purchasing hair products from discount stores, and even some retail stores as well!

Hair products that are left open in the shower, or on the sink, and water gets into the products can lessen what the hair product does for your hair. If you have a hair product that has water in it you may find yourself having a bad hair day when you use this product as it will not perform to your expectations.
