Subtle Blonde- If you’re looking for some subtle highlights, but don’t want to pay salon prices, use this trick. Squeeze a lemon into a dish and use a toothbrush to apply the lemon juice to the areas where you want highlights. Lay in the sun and you’ve got some subtly blonde locks that are sure to look gorgeous on you.
Remove Buildup- Did you know that you can reduce buildup in your hair by creating a paste with baking soda? It sounds odd, but it actually works. Mix baking soda together with water, create a paste and use it to wash your gorgeous locks. All that oil and buildup left over from poor quality shampoos should be gone!
Protect Yourself from Chlorine- Protect your hair from chlorine by wetting it. Leave in some conditioner to prevent it from soaking up any chlorine. It’s a weird hack that I use when in the pool with the grandkids! Protects my hair every time.
Keep Your Ponytail Full- I use this trick all the time. To keep my ponytail away from my neck, I add an extra hair tie! It makes my ponytail look fuller as well! Try it at home and be sure to let me know if it works!
DIY Dry Shampoo- This is a hack for the ladies who have skipped a hair-wash or two. Create your own dry shampoo by adding baby powder to the oily parts of your hair. Brush it out. It’s like having just-washed hair every time.
