7 Hairstyling Cocktails That Will Give You a Perfect Hair Day (Finally)For just-walked-out-of-the-salon hair, mix and match hairstyling products. Here, your cocktail fix for every sad hair situation |
The Look: Beachy Waves (Minus the Sand and Ocean) Mix a leave-in conditioner + a styling wax
If you've got thick hair, creating beachy waves that don't look wildly poufy within two seconds of leaving your house can be quite a challenge. That's why Stone suggests skipping the sea-salt spray and instead opting for a leave-in-conditioner, which will help create that slightly curly texture, and a styling wax to keep the frizz at bay.
Blend together a dime-size amount of each product in your palms, then run the combo through your hair. If you'd like a more textured look, Stone suggests using the leave-in conditioner first, then applying the wax to the ends of your hair.
Try Living Proof No-Frizz Leave-In Conditioner, $24, with R+Co Mannequin Styling Paste, $28

Informative. I especially liked that curly hair cocktails were included.

This was so helpful because when I use the wrong products together my hair is limp and greasy and I needed a little tip on how to get natural looking hair with the right mix of products.

This provided me with some helpful hair combinations! Many hair products aim to achieve one specific thing, but sometimes it takes more than one product to achieve an overall "look" so this was great.

I wish we could bookmark articles to come back to later! Like a heart feature or something.
