All girls dream to look impeccable. But sometimes it happens that circumstances do not allow to put themselves in order: turning off the water in the house, long trips by train or car, a banal lack of time. All this makes it impossible to wash your hair, but do not despair. Even not very fresh hair can be given a well-groomed look.
How to hide dirty hair?
The easiest way to do this is to style your newly cleaned hair. But when this is not possible, you can use some tricks. Take the following tips for yourself, and in any situation your curls will look stylish and neat.
Curling Corrugated
This is a real magic wand for greasy hair. Small waves will add volume. This will already be a huge plus, as everyone knows that even a hair dryer on dirty hair is not able to cope with this task.
You can go curling only at the roots, giving hair pomp. Hair will become more manageable, and you can easily put them in the tail or stab a couple of invisible.
The second option is to make a corrugation at full length. Note that if you have naturally thick hair, the hairstyle will be very voluminous. The most important plus is that no one will think that you could make such a set on stale hair. Curly hair can be laid in a volume knob, braid pigtails or leave loose.
Gels, mousses
Not all are suitable.
It is best to cope with the so-called wet effect of masking dirty curls.
One has only to put the hair in a smooth hairstyle and walk on it with the chosen means. And now you are not a “squirrel” with dirty hair, but a stylish girl with elegant styling.
We advise you to stock up on such a gel or mousse in advance, since it is unknown at what point it may be needed. And maybe you will discover a new style. After all, “licked” hairstyles of the 20s do not lose their relevance to this day. They can be seen both on the red carpet and on the streets of the city.
Braids
This is the best friends of unwashed hair. With their help, you can create both a naive and playful image, and a decent evening hairstyle. If you think that two ordinary braids do not fit your style at all, then try braiding French braids. Their ends can be fastened using stealth, creating an elegant hairstyle.
Another option may be dragon spits. Their peculiarity is that they begin directly from the front of the forehead, thus hiding the greasiness.
Curly Hairstyles
They can be created only if there are fixing means at hand - foam, varnish, etc. In order to hide the stale appearance of the roots, use a fine comb. Use it to make a pile. This will solve two problems at once - it will add volume and hide excessive gallness.
Try to divert attention from dirty roots
Headbands, headbands, tiaras and hairpins can help in this matter. They can be worn at any time of the year. If gouging is observed only at the roots, a kerchief or bandage will hide this area. The bulk of the hair can be left uncool.
Dry shampoo
This tool appeared on the market quite recently, but has already managed to win the love of fashionistas. If you bought it in advance, you will not have to suffer with unwashed hair. It is enough to distribute the tool on the hair, and then go through the comb.This way you remove the blubber from your hair and make it much cleaner and more attractive.
What is not recommended?
Some girls make critical mistakes when choosing hairstyles for dirty hair. As a result, the look of the hair just gets worse. Therefore, it is necessary to know what exactly you should not do if there is greasiness.
- Loose hair If you leave the hair in its original form, then you are provided with the effect of “icicles” that will hang on your head. It does not decorate at all. Therefore, under any circumstances, try to collect them in a tail or fasten strands at the top. Otherwise, unwashed hair ugly hung around the face.
- If you think that going through the comb along the entire length, you will remove the effect of grease, then you are deeply mistaken. Such manipulation will distribute the subcutaneous fat accumulated near the roots, along the entire length. This will only aggravate the situation. Use a clean hairbrush to walk along the strands themselves, retreating from the scalp by no less than 7-10 cm. At the roots, you can try to do a light fleece or simply beat the hair with your fingers.
This rule does not apply to the situation when you use dry shampoo. Even in the instructions for its use it is clearly written that it is necessary to comb the hair after application.
- Do not help to create volume and curlers. After removing them, the hair will very quickly return to its original appearance and there will be no trace of pomp. Also do not rush to use the iron. It will only increase the shine, but will not give the desired shape. Dirty hair is much worse thermocouple, so leave curling iron and irons for freshly washed curls.
- Varnish, foams and other styling products are contraindicated for dirty hair. And without that heavy strands of dirt and fat will become even more burdened. Create at least some decent hairstyle is unlikely to succeed.
Hairstyles
The ability to choose one or another hairstyle for unwashed hair depends largely on the length. The hardest thing will have owners of short hair. But here you can find options.
On short
There are several options for styling for short hair in such a scrupulous situation. Review them all and determine which one suits you best.
Sea wave
This name was not accidental hairstyle. Hair and shape, and in appearance resemble a beautiful sea wave, frozen on your head. To create it you need a gel with the effect of "wet hair". Spread it over the entire length of the curls.
Next, make a parting on one side. Closer to which temple, determine for yourself. The main thing is that it is not clearly in the middle. Next, a thin strand near the forehead (on the side where there is a large mass of hair) combs up and to the side, imitating the crest of a sea wave.
Thanks to the gel and a small length of hair, such styling is able to hold out all evening. This option is chosen hairstyles not only for everyday life (or dirty hair), but also for evening bow.
Nest
This hairstyle can be built without the help of additional funds. Only gum and stealth are needed. With your fingers, select a few strands around your forehead. Leave them at the final stage of creating the "nest".
Scrape the rest of your hair at the roots and collect into the tail. Do not try to pull it down strongly, it should turn out loose. Wrap your hair around the elastic band or just tucked under it. Get a kind of "nest." Loose locks can be stabbed with invisibles.
Now single out one strand of hair remaining around the forehead. Gently, but not tightly direct them towards the tail and lay under the gum.
If the length is not enough, then use stealth, attaching strands on the head.
Braids
Even from short hair, you can braid pigtails. Here will suit such an option as "dragon". Take a strand from the forehead and start braiding a loose pigtail, as you move back, weave other hairs as well.
Stop at the top of the head. There the hair can be left spun. Pigtails are best fixed with small silicone rubber bands.
This hairstyle will hide greasy roots, and loose strands will give it refinement. It is especially good in the winter. You can safely wear a hat, without fear of losing volume and shape.
Sea breeze
To create this hairstyle you will need to split the hair into two parts. Swipe the sharp edge of the comb along the line from ear to ear through the back of the head. The hair which appeared to be above this line while fasten with a hairpin.
To give volume and easy negligence, make a pile separately for each strand at the bottom. To keep the volume open, start at the bottom of the head. Rising above, lay combed strands from top to bottom.
It should be understood that this hairstyle is very short-lived, so try not to touch her hands in the process of wearing.
Spread the hairs in the upper part of the head with a large comb, putting them in random order over the combed ones. If the hair were clean, then they would definitely need to be sprinkled with varnish. But in this situation it is better not to burden them.
On average
Owners of medium-length hair can endlessly experiment with their own hairstyle. Here are some options that will save you if you can not refresh your head.
Vertical shell
First you need to shake the hair well, leaning forward. Strands along the growth line at the forehead actively nashemivaem, creating volume. Next, do the parting. Then we take at will the left or right part of the hair and begin to wrap them in the middle so that a vertical shell is formed.
We fasten invisible or studs. We perform a similar manipulation with another part of the hair. Only this shell will have to close the first one. Thus we will receive volume and an attractive form. We fix all invisible.
To complement the image, you can use decorative stealth or hairpins. They will decorate the shell and distract attention from the roots.
"Cone"
Here you can use a special volumetric bagel for hair. In this case, the tail is made, the length is distributed around the donut, and another pinching thin elastic band is put on top.
If the length of such a manipulation is not enough, you can simply comb the strands around the forehead. Make the harnesses from the rest and carefully put them in a round “shell”, fastening them with pins. Combed strands must be hidden under a bump. But make sure that the volume remains at the top and along the hairline at the forehead.
French charm
Negligent and very romantic hairstyle can be obtained when using the gel or mousse with a “wet effect”. Put a drop on your fingers and rub it. Blowing, crumpling movements walk along the strands. The result should be light waves.
Direct the strands in different directions, so you will achieve additional volume.
On long curls
If you need to quickly put in order long hair, then the following simple hairstyles that you can do with your own hands will do.
"Just out of bed"
This option of a casual hairstyle will suit owners of long hair, and to create it you only need a thin comb and a small rubber band. Moving from the forehead to the back of the head, add hair strand by strand. Strands around the forehead and at the top will need to be combed along the entire length.
Separate the lower part of the hair (line from ear to ear). Braid spikelet or tight pigtail, leaving the upper part very voluminous.
If the upper combed straps turned out to be too long, they can be neatly tucked into the base of the braid or fixed with stealth.
Retro style bouffant
To create a hairstyle you need a thick bezel or bandage. To begin with we create volume. A comb with thin teeth will need to process each strand, moving from the forehead to the back of the head. After the process is completed, do not brush or stick the curls.
Take a bandage and gently put it on your forehead. Leave a couple of centimeters of hair around the forehead or completely close them with an accessory - you decide. As a result, you should have a hairstyle similar to the one that was the seductive heroine of the film “The Diamond Hand”.
Scandinavian motifs
Do not pre-comb or whip hair with your fingers. Simply select the strands in random order and peel them at the roots. Now it will be necessary to braid 10-15 (depending on the thickness of the hair) thin braids.
Hairstyle is almost ready. Pigtails do not fasten at the ends, but try to braid them to the very last hair and sprinkle a little varnish. It remains only to whip styling hands and ready.
Successful examples
Hairstyle in the style of "French chic" looks very romantic. It is suitable even for the first date. Do not forget to make a side parting.
Beautiful French braids will give an image of playfulness. You will not see dirty roots.
