Hi guys, I’ve been hesitating to write this blog post for so long but the time has finally come! For everyone not interested in my personal hair story – please scroll down to the bottom to find my hair care tips.
It all began 6 years ago. My hair was long and pretty but I was lazy and cheap. I didn’t want to go to a hairdresser. Instead, I wanted my friend to bleach my hair for me. It worked for a couple of months, but long story short: My hair was in really bad condition. You can probably imagine what it looked like. I used to have hair down to my stomach but after colouring my hair that often it became thin and fragile. My hair was breaking off above my ear – so it was definitely time to visit the hairdresser.
I don’t want to name the hairdresser – my hair was in a bad condition anyway – but after my visit it became even worse. My hair didn’t adapt the color at all, so the hairdresser applied even more of the hair dye product. What a disaster. My hair became pink-violett-grey-yellow-blonde. I lost my nerve and began to cry. I used to work in Vienna by then and my coworker was so nice to accompany me in my search for a good hairdresser. Marion told me about one in our neighbourhood. She showed me their salon and made an appointment for me. When I arrived there – the boss oft he salon told me that his coworker would do my hair. I wanted to run away, but Marion convinced me to stay – „It can’t get any worse“ she said. And so I met Dante – my (hair)livesaviour.
Dante took his time to talk to me. He looked at my hair, cut off a strand a explained its structure to me. He explained to me why my hair has this color now and why they didn’t turn out as wished. He calmed me down and told me that my hair wouldn’t adapt any more aggressive hair dye and that he’d use another product which is more gentle. He showed me the possible colors that would fit my hair and warned me that I wouldn’t be happy after the first few sessions. For my hair to recover it would take its time. I’ve been his customer since then. He saved my hair!! For those interested in my hair color – feel free to leave a comment or send an e-mail – I’ll ask Dante.
Here are my haircare tips!
I used a lot of professional haircare products from the hairdresser in the beginning // I only wash my hair every 2 or 3 days // It’s better to only blow-dry your hair every other wash // While letting it air-dry, I always do my makeup // I avoid very hot water when washing my hair // I use cold water – it makes your hair look shinier // Pat your hair dry with a towel and then comb your hair with a tangle teaser or a boar’s hair brush // I use hair oil on the tips of my hair // I often use 2-3 towels to pat my hair dry // I rarely use a straightening iron // I’ve never tried to dye my hair myself again // I don’t go to bed with wet hair // I cut my split ends regularly // I treat my hair with hair products once a month //
Pat your hair dry with a towel and then comb your hair with a Tangle Teezer or a brush. I use hairoil on the tips of my hair too.
I often use 2-3 towels to pat my hair dry.
