Quick Tip

*It Can Burn

And I'm not talking about your curling iron. That goes without saying, but the hot air blasting out of your blow dryer can do the same thing if you don't aim carefully. Think how sensitive you neck is and how badly a blast of hot hair can feel behind the ear.

*An Economical Conditioner

Did you ever think that the conditioner that you use for your clothes would work as well for your hair. Actually it does. Dilute two to one and then apply as you would your present conditioner. Rinse out and you should find the same results for a fraction of the cost. Women have known this for years but are just getting around to sharing.

*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!
