Quick Tip

*Are You Using The Right Shampoo?

If you swim a lot, you should be using a shampoo that is formulated with this in mind. Chlorinated water can do some nasty things to hair. It can go from looking healthy and shiny to dry, brittle and dull.

*Picking up the Shears

The garden isn't the only thing that needs maintenance at this time of year. The sun can bake your tresses and those split ends that were just starting... are climbing up the hair shaft rapidly. Aim for a trim every six weeks or so.

*Bangs?

Did you know that bangs cut to the right length can accentuate your eyes. On the other hand, if they are the wrong length, or too thick, they will pull everyone's attention to your nose!
