Who does not crave for hair that is bouncy and shiny? Almost all women do, right? Simply use these techniques to create a bounce in your hair and get the eyeballs rolling.

• Get a layered cut, as this hairstyle can make your hair appear more weighed down.
• Also, avoid your hair from getting frizzy, especially in the monsoons. Frizzy hair can rob that bounce away.
• You can also use smooth rollers after you blow dry your hair. Remove these rollers and finger comb your hair to get a bouncy and wavy look.

#5. Sport a fake bob

Do you love a bob look, but do not wish to trim down your long locks? Well, you can flaunt a fake bob too. All you need is a few hair pins to create an illusion. Make a low and loose ponytail and tuck it underneath using a couple of hair pins. Pull out a few strands around your face and curl them using a small-sized curling iron.

Hair care tips

•  It is normal to lose up to 100 strands a day. Brush less to limit hair loss.
• Too much sun exposure can dry your hair. So, use a hair spray that offers SPF protection or use a head gear (scarf or hat) when out in the sun.
• Never brush wet hair; let them dry a bit and finger comb to get rid of the tangles. Use comb if necessary.
• A sweaty scalp during monsoon attracts dust and pollutants, which in turn leads to dandruff. So, you must focus on cleaning your scalp thoroughly. That is why, you should wash your hair every alternate day.

So, what are you waiting for? Use these tricks to style your hair at home, just the way you get it done at a professional salon.
