There’s something about the new year that inspires many people to want to change their looks or switch up their style. Most people make resolutions to eat better and exercise more, while others opt for a more immediate change and reinvent their wardrobes. Still others choose to change their hair. If you are one of those people looking to makeover their hair, here are a few ways you can go about it:
Hair Extensions
For an instant, dramatic transformation, consider wearing hair extensions or a wig. If you have short or shoulder length hair, you can have long, luscious locks that still look completely natural with some high quality hair extensions. This is a great option if you have a big event coming up soon and can’t grow out your hair in time, or if you just want to try out some long hairstyles and still have the option to switch back to your short hair without getting a haircut. For gorgeous, lustrous hair extensions and wigs, look no further than True Glory Hair. Their premium virgin hair extensions and wigs are extremely well made, super soft, and are guaranteed to last years without shedding (with proper care and maintenance.)
Choose from a wide array of options, including their Virgin Indian Collection, Classic Brazilian Collection, Brazilian Wig Collection, and Remy Hair Extensions. The latter is one of the most popular choices for hair extensions as they are naturally bouncy and light, and very easy to curl and style.
Intensive Treatments
If your hair has been looking lifeless, dull or lackluster, it may be time to breathe new life back into your mane by giving it some intensive treatment. African-American hair requires plenty of moisture to maintain its natural bounce and shine, and it can get especially dehydrated during the cold winter months. Try a rich oil treatment at a salon to give your hair a much needed boost.
Between treatments, avoid washing your hair in hot water or with shampoos that contain sulfates and harsh ingredients. Always condition your hair with a moisturizing conditioner, and follow this up with a nourishing oil like coconut or argan oil. Then wrap your hair in a silk scarf before you sleep to retain moisture and wake up to beautiful, bouncy and frizz free curls.
Hair Color
Changing your hair color is one way to completely change your look. If you’re brave enough to go all out, try a bright or bold color like vibrant purple or mermaid shades of blue, green and turquoise. One of this year’s hottest colors is Living Coral, Pantone’s official color of the year for 2019. It’s not for the faint of heart, but this striking color is very on trend, and can suit a wide range of skin tones, whether you are light or dark, or if you have a warm undertone or a cool one. This stunning shade would also be perfect for ushering in spring, and would also be great to wear during the summer.
If crazy rainbow colors aren’t your thing, or if you work in an office where more subdued and conservative hairstyles are preferred, you can choose to simply go a few shades lighter than your natural hair color. Caramel brown is an almost universally flattering shade to go with, as are redder tones like mahogany brown or auburn. You could also go blonde; light ash blonde looks gorgeous against darker skin tones, while honey blonde can give you that carefree, sunkissed beach girl vibe.
However you decide to makeover your hair, try not to overthink it. Have fun with it and do whatever feels right and makes you feel good. The important thing is to do what makes you feel beautiful so you can step out into the year with confidence and joy.
