Frizzy Hair Care & Styling Women Over 50

Hi awesome ones, so today, let's tackle our hair, do you remember when you were younger how you could buy like any shampoo and didn't matter if it had detergent in it? It just always worked well these days. I find - and you probably do too that, especially if we have gray hair or if we're still coloring it just any shampoo, it won't do and we also need to use some products to kind of get the frizzies out. So I have tips today and I'm going to show you some great products that I use that will really help to de-frizz your hair and make it look smoother and shinier. But first I have to show you my hair. Just after I wash it and it's dried. Oh all, right now it would look a lot worse if I was using, you know a cheaper kind of detergent based shampoo, but using the right kind of shampoos, there's a certain kind of silkiness to it. So let me just show you what I mean: here's my favorite shampoo and it's by a company called davines. I like the new new shampoo and shall we say it comes in different flavors for different types of hair. Anyway, this brand was an Allure best in Beauty. Pick and it has lots of natural products in it, I've been using it for years, and it also comes in jumbo sizes that I usually buy, and then I can just kind of fill up these smaller containers. Now, if you have silver or gray hair, they also have a special. You know the purple shampoo and by davines of course - and this is called Heart of Glass and it is a silkening shampoo, it's absolutely lovely, but you only use it. Every four washes so remember that now my hair stylist actually introduced me to the davines products and I love each and every one of them and by the way I will have links for these products underneath the video description and also in the comments for you all Right now that my hair has been washed, I need to tame it and I've got two products for that. First is the John Frieda frizzies, and that's really going to help to tame that fly away. Hair and next is the John Frieda perfect finish serum great products. Now, I'm going to pretend that my hair is damp right now, and this is where I'm going to use the John Frieda, frizzies and I'll just sort of show you I use about that much on my hair for my length and of course you can use this On shorter lengths as well - and I just kind of blend it in like this kind of like finger painting but anyway and then what I'm going to do, is I'm going to distribute it through my hair? Now I don't put it into the scalp, but I do put it all through my hair and especially especially onto the frizzy parts. Next I want to do some styling and my preference for having straight hair is well. This is a straightening brush and, as you can see, it looks like a brush, but it actually straightens the hair and I'm going to show that to you in just a second. But when I want curly hair now, this is going to look a little retro, but I love the newer product by Conair electric rollers. Remember those oh, my gosh. It is so fabulous and, of course, if you've got one from like the 1980s, it's probably time to throw it out, but these new products they work on, amazingly well, alright. So moving on, I'm going to show you how I do Style with that styling brush and I don't really like to use curling, irons or flat irons, because whenever I'm using them, I don't know I get distracted or something and I start seeing smoke and I know That'S not a good idea for my hair all right now. Let me show you how I style with this straightening brush. This actually doesn't take very long, and what I usually do is I just start out. I find my part and I like to push the top of my hair back. I usually go above and below the sections of hair to get a really smooth. Look. I also like to curl my sides in slightly which I can actually do with a straightening brush. I'M going to fast forward a little bit now, so this video doesn't take too long, but you'll really see how it Smooths my hair out foreign. Now I'm not finished yet. But if you like videos like this, for let's say a more mature woman, there's a button down there somewhere, where you can subscribe and also don't forget to click on the bell and that way, you'll be notified about my videos and by the way, are you you Joining me every Wednesday at 8pm, I am live at amazon.com shop, slash awesomeover50, where I browse and chat about well makeup and skin care and hair care.

So where was I oh yeah time for the John Frieda? What is it called again? It'S called um, perfect, finish, perfect, finish serum and I just put a little squirt like that on my maybe a little bit more on my hands, and I rub it in like this all right again kind of reminding me of when I used to be a little Kid, but anyway, and what we do is we just smooth our hair down with this serum, and you can really see the difference between this side and this side. Also it I'm just looking in the mirror here. It really does add a little shine to the hair as well, but let's not leave this side over here, we're going to smooth it down again and so that it all looks absolutely smooth, non-frizzy and beautiful. Now I mentioned how you could make your hair curly with those Conair rollers, but did you know that there's a product out, it looks like real hair and it's a great product for making up the messy buns. I love to use these for my Glam days and let's take a look at how it works now, unless your hair is really super short, this messy bun will work on hair shorter than mine, and here I have an elastic hair bun that I can apply in A matter of minutes, I've been wearing this look to quite a few events, and it looks so tray Chic. It'S super easy to attach, and it comes in lots of different hair shades. Now I actually did a full video on this Glam messy bun for you, and what I'm going to do is I'm going to put it on the end screen of this video, and you know I was also thinking to myself. A lot of you might want to grow out into your you know, gray or silver hair, and I did a video on my process, so I'm going to put that at the end screen of this video as well. Now one thing I really really wanted to address here and that is be authentically you. If you really love a short little, pixie cut well, go for it and if you like longer locks like I just love my longer locks, I think you should go for that too. I personally believe that there are no rules for hair, and you know whatever makes you authentically you not just for hair, but you know maybe for what you're wearing or other things. I just think that it's so important to be true to yourself, and that also goes for growing out your gray hair too. Now I've had many many women mention to me in the comments that their hairdressers have told them that they have to cut off all their hair and also they should never go gray. They need to keep on coloring it, and you know when your hair is coming in Gray or silver like mine, you have to color it every four weeks, so you know what I've had my silver hair now for about five years and I don't have to color It I don't have to spend all that money and I absolutely love it, and I just it's my signature. Look. I really really truly believe that to be the best version of yourself, you have to be authentic and you have to be comfortable in your own skin, and you know I always like to listen to my heart before I listen to others, and I think that way You really have a lot less regrets and you know what it's just another way to keep it awesome.
