Three Types of hair Oily Dry and Normal

There are three different type of hair:

oily
normal
dry

How to recognise which hair type is yours?

The oily hair
The oily hair is very difficult to maintain. The hair after 1-2 days is very greasy and probbaly you will prefer stay at home than go out :)

To keep this hair nice and clean you will have to wash it every 1-2 days there is nothing you can do about it.
I am the unlucky one who has oily hair and I tried so many different shampoos and their didn't help me I just have to wash my hair every 1-2 days.
The other option is dry shampoo you can use it in the second day if you would like to wait with the shower. Is a good option but you will have to wash your hair next day anyway so you will get maybe one day break :(

more about oily hair below this post

The dry hair

The hair is breaking from lack of moisture
The hair is dull
The hair has got splits ends

Product good for this hair type :

moisturising shampoo , deep masque, deep moisturising treatment.

I recomend to you deep conditioning treatment for dry hair
Conditioning treatment will give your hair proteins and moisture and you can save some money and you will not have to go for a trim so many times.

great product

The normal hair

The normal hair is the best type of hair which one you have to washonly every 3-4 days only.

So what is the cause of oily hair ?

The cause is the sebum oil glands on your scalp and those glands produce too much oil.

As I have oily hair I have dandruff as well and I was researching about dandruff recently and found nice document

http://www.pgscience.com/files/pdf/Dr._Thomas_Dawson/TRI_book_chapter_Ch12_Dandruff.pdf

From this article I know that my scalp needs iron or copper probably and decided to try maybe HOME MADE tonic from... Onion skin !

Yes, this cheap tonic is easy to make. You just need onion skin and water mix it together and leave it in glass jar overnight. Next day you can make hair spray tonic and use it every time before you would like to wash your hair

Why onion skin ?

Onion has got essential nutrients and promots hair growth.

For everyone who prefer buy product from the shop or online this link below is about nice shampoo for dandruff and itchy scalp

http://www.greenpeople.co.uk/try-me-organic-homme-10-itch-away-shampoo-30ml#reviews

inexpensive only 5 Pounds so I will definitely try this shampoo next time

Hairdressing Competition Level 2, Third Place

Level 2 Hairdressing Competition
(photos from this competition are available to buy from
www.jorbozehphotography.com)

I am proud to announce that I was awarded on 2nd of April with Third Place in Fantasy Competition as a student of Level 2 Woman's Hairdressing at The Bournemouth and Poole College.

The level 2 was divided to 3 groups : Historical, Occasional and Fantasy

My group "Fantasy " was the last one on this day.

All preparation, make up and costume I could do at home before the competition only the hair I had to style during the competition.

Early morning at 11 am I meet my model and I done her nails, make up and add fake body tattoo.

At 2 pm me and my model went to college to do more preparation.

The main hall was full of people and we had to wait a bit and let other groups take their stuff back etc

I had to go to one lady and tick my name on the list , get number of my table.

I could take just one bag with me and I had to leave it under my table.

I had straightener, hair extensions, my brushes, my combs, hair bands, hair pins etc

The all necessary products ,for styling the hair ,were on the front of the room and all electrical equipment as well so during styling the hair you could take anything you needed: hair spray, hair serum etc.
(I had my own equipment or products because college team had for us just few products - hair serum, hair spray)

I would like to say big thank you to my husband my model and all family and friends for all support and advice.

From my experience I learn that
- 1 hr was not enough for me to do my design, I had no time to add more hair extensions )
- make up and costume is very important as a hair style
- moodboard ( write down as much info as you can and make match the colours with your theme
