Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
- Choose hairstyles and haircuts that will last between your next trip to the hair dresser
- Make your shampoo last longer. Don't throw out your shampoo bottle that you think is empty because chances are you still have a few washes left in it. Fill the bottle with water and use it until you are sure it is empty.
- Collect complimentary shampoos/conditioners.
- Stay away from perm and dye bottles. I know it's easier said then done. Try braiding your hair before you go to sleep that will give you extra body and waves for the morning. And if you cant seem to stay away from the bleach-try highlights instead, which you can easily do without going to the hairdresser.
- Make your own hair-detangling product. Recycle an empty hair spray bottle and use 1 part conditioner and fill the rest with water.
- If you have dry/coarse hair, try rinsing it with beer.
- Use honey. Honey is a great natural product that leaves hair healthy and shiny. Just be sure to rinse it out thoroughly.
