DHAKA: Have wavy hair? If you think styling them is the most frustrating part of your morning routine then here are tips for taming them. Wavy hair can be a boon as you can style them in various ways. Here’s what you need to do.

Find the right shampoo: Opt for a shampoo that suits your hair. You also don’t need to shampoo your hair every morning. If it starts to feel greasy, try shampooing your roots and using conditioner to add volume, reports thehealthsite.com.

Brush your strands when they are wet: Avoid tampering with your curls when they are dry. So, if you do decide to brush your curls, make sure you do so quickly after your shower.

Ditch the blow dryer and other hot tools: Moisture is good for your hair, so leaving your locks to air-dry may take longer but it allows them to consume the extra water, which ultimately adds more volume.

Find a nourishing treatment: If you have fine hair, spray from the mid-section and down to the tips. If you have thick hair, start at the roots and proceed down to the ends. Flip your head upside down, continue to spray and gently scrunch your hair with your hands.

Try a leave-in serum: Since your hair is neither curly nor straight, you can use a leave-in serum applying it from the mid-section to the tips. Leave the scalp area as it is as too much product can make it greasy.

Keep’em long: Wavy hair looks best when it is a bit on the longer side than the shorter one as there is a lot which can be done with it. It is also difficult to style short, wavy hair all the time. With long hair, even leaving it open without much ado can look good.

Try various hairstyles: Since you have wavy hair, you can try various looks. If you want to leave your locks open, try different accessories like a hairband or cute clips. If you want to tie them up, leave a few lose strands on the side and pin up the rest in a bun.
