1.START FROM WITHIN

Healthy hair will never happen if your diet isn’t giving you the vitamins you need. If you’re hair is perpetually dry  start drinking more water or add vitamin supplements into your routine in order to kickstart growth, or repair damage. I personally take Biotin and add supplements to my morning smoothie.


2. TURN DOWN THE HEAT AND USE PROTECTION

Turn the temperature setting on your hair dryer, flatiron and curling down or skip them altogether if you can. Also, always use a heat-protectant, in addition to warding off damage from your hot tools, protects your hair from external damage like sun and saltwater.


3.TREAT DAMAGE EARLY AND OFTEN

Develop a treatment plan and stick to it. People who have beautiful hair and skin have a regime of treatments they swear by and am constantly using them.  If you want to prevent or treat heat damage you have to not only try several treatments you also have to stick to them and use them regularly. 


4. DETOX YOUR LOCKS

Removing Build up from you hair is very neccesary when you use everyday products. Products  like   DevaCURL build up buster that gets rid of build up without stripping your color.

5. ADD GLOSS TO THE FINAL LOOK

Finishing Serums and Sprays are like the top coat on your nails. You need them in order to complete your look. I love Kenra Finishing serum . Not only does it work on all hair types but it smells amazing.

1. Dry Shampoo and when your done use more….I love dry shampoo as much as I love ice cream and I really love ice cream. Spray about 2 inches away from the scalp but Directly on the scalp not on your ends. Now shake it off like the song “Pelo Suerto" by Gloria Trevi

​

​

• Top Bun is the best way to look good and avoid washing your hair. Make sure and use some hairspray medium hold to take care of the fly away’s and your all set.
• Braid …any kind of braid is a great way to look great and avoid actually styling your hair!
• Head Bands are like the girl version of wearing a baseball cap. The possibilities are endless and it a great accessories to any outfit. I love them and make sure you get the ones that double as scarfs so you can use them year round.
• Pony Tail is the most underrated hairstyle and abused hairstyle in the universe. Do you realize how many ways and how fancy a pony tail can make you look? You can do a high one like Beyoncé at the met gala or a low one with a side part like a Kardashian …..Maybe you’re a half up half down like Arianna Grande. Make it your own and make it Polished.

I get this question all the time when someone tells me a stylist promised her highlights on her black hair and no bleach. I say yes ok because pigs can fly......=)
 Chemically this is impossible if you have black to dark brown hair. If you are a natural light brown to Blonde than yes this is completely possible.
 
Are they the same thing?
 
Yes they are the same thing depending on the formula the stylist is using it can have the same consequences on your hair.
 
Whats the best way to go blonde and not have damage?
 
So when I saw the pigs fly I was like No WAY!! I kid …..So going blonde is expensive and high maintience there is no way around it unless your born blonde and stay that way. You must ..MUST keep that hair conditioned and keep up the color. Trying to go in between appointments for long periods of time is not a way to be a healthy blonde. That’s what will make you a unhealthy blonde.

• Book Once a month or once every other month depending on how fast your hair grows
• Once every three months book a deep conditioning treatment
• Trim every three month
• If you can afford clip on’s of a lighter blonde get them to add that pop of dimension you want without damaging your actual hair
• Invest in a hair regime, Shampoo, Mask, Leave – In  ext.
• Invest in amazing hot tools they will make all the difference
• Air dry and braid as often as possible
• The beach is your friend…salt water is your friend and so is a mask right after

Thank You for reading I hope you learned something new…as usual if you have a question comment below and I will include it in my next Blog.

Nudos.......AKA Tangles we all have them and we all hate them. I am going to share with you  ways to beat the tangles and avoid pain and discomfort. 


​1. Leave in Conditioner: Leave in conditioner is my go to product for everything. I can never get enough of my leave in hair conditioner. By applying this product immediately after you wash your hair it will make everything seem so much easier especially detangling. Below is one I love to use. It might be in a mist but it has the power of a creme. 

2. Wet Brush: The holy grail of detangling. My mom says "el piene magic!!" this is really magic. The bristles on this brush won't hurt , won't pull and will detangle. I have tested it on every hair type and it wins time and time again. Its also Bueno , Bonito Y Barato just how I like it.  

3. Detangle in Shower: Conditioner doesn't detangle your hair you do!!! Yup así mismo. If you do not detangle hair while your in the shower adding more conditioner will not help you. My abuela told me a simple strategy.  Start at the ends of the hair and work your way up.



At the end of the day if your hair is constantly getting tangled and you are above age 12 you have other issues you need to deal with that are leading your hair to be tangled. 

Maybe....your hair is dry and you need to deep condition more often so you can look at my healthy hair tips tab for more information on that.

Maybe ...you need a trim and your have too much breakage or split ends. 

Maybe...you should wear your hair naturally for a few weeks and let it recover form heat damage. 

​Maybe.. you should start rinsing with cold water to seal the cuticle


Gracias,
XOXO Hairtmer

Have you ever gotten banged? I can't tell you the amount of times I have gotten banged and spent forever growing them Out. Having curly hair and growing out bangs isn't exactly ideal. But have no fear the hair tamer is here. How to make the painful process less of a pain.

You can take more hair vitamins and change to horse shampoo. Wait ...have you ever even tried to blend them in? Nothing works and its endless frustration and regret. Well here are some clever ideas on what you can do to make the process a bit less painful. 

1. Braids ...Trenzas....while they practically solve everything they also can solve bangs...now I get it not all of us are talented braiders so you can do this same style below with twist and bobby pins and get the same look. 

2. The rico Suave slick back....all you need is some Wave spray or Sea Salt spray and if you have curly hair I would go with some hairspray or pomade. I don't encourage hairspray I hate it but in this case we need to bring out the Medium Hold Experts. You will also need bobby pins if you have curly hair or you will look like a wet poodle. 

3. A hat..si eso mismo..growing out you bangs can be a time where you are experience changes in your life so why not venture into fashion changes as well. You can wear a hoodie, baseball cap or Fedora. Ill leave this section up to you and whatever works best with your swag.

 Its summer Its hot ...does your skin and hair feel dehydrated? Dull, lifeless, damaged, disagreeable hair.

No fear the Hairtamer is here. 

I want to share a few mask and how they can help you bring that hair back to life. 

Rules to Mask:

1. Must Use Once a week Consistently 
2. Must leave on for at-least 10 min
3. Use after Shampoo
4. Only Apply on damp or towel dried hair not wet
5. Add a shower cap or Plastic bag for heat in order to intensify 

This Verb mask $14 is what I call ..Bueno , Bonito,  y  Barato!!! Not only does it work great but it has ingredients like Babassu Oil which nourish and Hydrate your hair. Use if your hair is Fine / Med and any texture . I use it on my hair. 

Briogeo Mask $26 is an amazing due to its moisture and reconstructive properties. Basically you have curly hair or you bleach or dye your hair a lot or go to the beach or pool often. Its also reasonably priced and has ingredients like avocado, argan oil, almond oil, keratin protein, rose hip oil, and a bunch of vitamins — B5, D, A, and E, if you're wondering. This is ideal for Med/ Course hair. I also use this mask and its amazing!!!

Salerm Wheat Germ Mask $24 is ideal for anyone who has Really really damaged hair or does chemical straighteners. This is ideal for all my Latinas and especially those with coarse hair. This is my go to old school reliable mask that my mom sells at her shop since I could remember. Its also Bueno, Bonito,  Y Barato and you can only find it in a  Hispanic Beauty Supply or at a Hispanic Salon. 

Please read the rules as no product will create a miracle unless it cost a lot more money or done at a salon by a Stylist. But if you maintain your hair with a mask at least once a week you will have no problems with dry brittle hair. As always if you have questions message me I'm always happy to help.

XOXO
