Girl World Daily: Feelin' Fine Buh-Bye, Bed Head!
From the Editors of Girl World Daily |

Dreaded
“bed head” usually comes from sleeping
on wet hair, wearing bands to bed or
tossing and turning all night. No need
to hide under the covers. Never again
leave the house looking like you stuck
your finger in an electric socket!
Prevent the Poofies
Bed head is easier to prevent than fix.
It’s best to wash hair so it has time to
dry before you hit the sack. If you
blow-dry, don’t put your head on the
pillow while hair is warm -- that can
set it in ways you don’t want. And no
gels, mousses or sprays before bed.
Still All Sticky-uppy?
If you’ve taken the above advice and
still look like an anime character, here
are some in-a-flash fixes.…
Quick Fix No. 1 Shower in the a.m. and
wash away all traces of hair-gone-wild.
Style and step out looking awesome as
usual.
Quick Fix No. 2 No time to shower?
Lightly mist hair with a spray bottle of
H2O, combing through with fingers. Brush
then style as you blow-dry. Use a
detangling product if necessary but
don’t overdo it. Hair will look greasy,
and that’s even worse than bed head.
Quick Fix No. 3 Put hair up, using one
of the following techniques:
* Butterfly clips Sweep hair back as if
you’re making a ponytail, then twist it
up and clamp on the clip. Keep it loose
and casual. A few wisps of hair hanging
on either side of your face look soft
and pretty.
* Chunky headband If you only need to
tame the front, this is quick and easy.
* Ponytail, anyone? Stay away from thin
elastic hair ties. Those leave marks and
can break hair. Think thick bands!
* Try a high pony Pull hair on top of
your head and secure it with a ponytail
holder. Some girls call this a
“pineapple.” So cute!
Quick Fix No. 4 Break out the
straightening iron but be careful. You
could burn yourself (yikes!) or singe
your locks, leading to many more bad
hair days. Go for product with zero
alcohol before using the iron. A spritz
of hairspray after straightening sets
the look.
Your bed head prob is chronic? A great
stylist can give you a cut and
recommendations to make messy morning
hair a thing of the past!
