Amazing and Cheap Hair Tricks

Living paycheck to paycheck here in New York has made me given up some things I love, including hair services. I'm growing my hair out because I can't afford to pay $300 dollars to get my hair done in this city. I normally wouldn't blog about these things, but I have found some really amazing hair tricks that are free or pretty cheap.

1.) The secret to getting rid of oily hair: Baby powder. Put baby powder in your hair and rub it into your scalp. It's amazing how this works!!! My hair is naturally pretty oily after a day, so I do this to my hair especially when I am running late or my fringe is not looking super great.

Another secret to getting rid of oily hair is to wet it, apply hairspray to your scalp, and blow dry it. It gets rid of the oil, but I don't really like the way my hair feels after. Try either out and let me know what you think.

2.) Cutting your fringe. I love Kandee Johnson and her youtube posts are fantastic. I recommend watching them for tricks on makeup and shaping eyebrows. Her video on cutting your fringe saves me from going nuts between haircuts. Here is her youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHWZcidY7ks

3.) Layering your hair. This girl's video isn't as good as Kandee's but she does add an interesting element--a razor. I have tried it out on my hair and I am pretty happy with my new look. Here's her video on how to layer your hair. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hK1BcftdyaY

And these are my secrets to fabulous hair!! Have a great weekend everyone!
