• The first and most important tip to boost your hair’s volume is to have a balanced and healthy diet. Like your body, your hair needs proper nourishment to keep it healthy and full of life. Eat food rich in vitamins and minerals such as iron zinc, copper and Vitamins B,C, & F that promote a healthy growth of hair.

• Use a clarifying shampoo at least once a week to wash out any product build up on your hair. This will make your hair weightless and full of bounce

• Massage your scalp and hair with warm oil to encourage the circulation of blood and to make the roots healthy before you shampoo your hair.

• If you have to use a voluminizing product make sure that you apply it on the roots and don’t overdo it. Too much of this product especially when applied on the shaft or strands will weigh down your hair and make it look flat and unnatural.

• Apply a small amount of dry shampoo at the hair’s roots to provide volume to the hair since this will soak the oil up.

• Use hair products that are protein rich. What protein does is to bind the hair to provide it with fullness and thickness

• Blow dry your hair flipped upside down. This will fluff up your hair and give it bounce and volume

• Refrain from washing hair every day. On days that you want your hair to look voluminous, don’t wash it. A newly wash hair falls flat and limp.

• Discern your reason for going blonde
Know exactly what your reason is or reasons are for going blonde. Are you bored with your present hair color and you feel you’ll have more fun with a blonde head of hair? Is it because you’re jealous of the blonde girl the guy you’re interested in seems to find attractive? Are you 100% sure going blonde is your ticket to a new and exciting look?

• Be prepared for some not so kind remarks
Blondes have been labeled as lightweights in the intellect department and in spite of the supposedly “liberated” society, there will still be some stupid people from whom you will hear unkind comments or jokes.

• Realize that going blonde means a total change of look
Changing your hair color means a total change in makeup. Remember, the hair frames the face and since you are changing the color of the frame so should you change the color of the canvas to match the frame.

• Know the exact blonde color that you want and will suit you
Blonde means a choice of a huge selection of shades and hues. Before going blonde, know exactly what exact blonde shade or tint you prefer that would also suit your skin coloring and personality. If possible, bring a clear picture of the exact blonde shade you would want to have to your stylist and get her opinion of its suitability.

Blondes do have a lot of fun, so if you’ve made up your mind, just make sure that you have the right mindset for it. Photo Copyright of PR PHOTOS

Short bob
An oval face can wear all types of short bob and all of them will look great on them. A graduated bob with side hair that caress the face and shorter at the nape is one of the best hairstyle for oval shape faces. It is the kind of hairstyle that frames the face perfectly and emphasizes beautiful facial features.

ON the other hand, a short single-length bob that is cut with precision with short under layers and chin-length sides is a sophisticated and sleek hairstyle for an oval face. The under layers will make the hair ends curve inward to frame the face delightfully. A short single-length bob with jaw cuddling sides will draw attention to lovely facial features.

Long bob
This very trendy hairstyle is one of the best hairstyle for oval shape faces. It is cut just about the shoulder with very few layers and blunt ends. The sides can be cut longer to angle down or bluntly straight with stacked layers at the back for more dimensions. A long bob with a side part rather than a center is best for women with oval shape faces. A center part has a tendency to make a long face look longer. .

Bangs
Bangs can instantly create a new cool look. Oval shape faces can wear any type of bangs because it is a face shape that is most balanced. But if the face is more oblong than most, you can wear wide bangs cur with the same length over the forehead and longer on the sides. Photo Copyright of PR PHOTOS
