How to Style Your Long Hair this Fall

It’s a well known fact that long hair is gorgeous, no matter the season. But it possesses its own unmatched charm once autumn rolls in. This is the time when you can swap out your ponytails and braids for cozier hairstyles and far more variety. Now that autumn is once again on its way, you’re probably eager to make the switch and start wearing your hair in a cuter myriad of styles. We understand, and we’re here to help! That’s why we’ve put together a list of some adorable long hairstyles for you to try this season, along with some recommendations for hair products for Remy hair.

Undercut Half-Updos, for the Alt Girls

RemySoft sulfate free shampooUndercuts have long been in style throughout this year and the last, thanks largely to their edgy look and versatility. However, if you have long hair along with your undercut, you may be at a loss as to how to utilize both looks to their fullest. One of the best ways to do so would be to tie your hair into a half ponytail, letting the rest cascade down your back. People will be able to see your undercut from the sides and admire your one-of-a-kind look twofold!

Simple Straight Hair

This look is perhaps the best for those who don’t want to put a lot of effort into their naturally straight hair, or simply appreciate the slick, straight look. All it takes is parting your hair down the center and letting it hang naturally. It helps to have your hair be as straight as possible, especially if your hair is naturally of a curlier texture. Several hair products for Remy hair exist to help you straighten your hair more adequately and help you achieve the tidy look necessary for this style.

Buns

RemySoft leave in conditionerWe hope you didn’t burn out on buns during the summer, because they’re just as cute and applicable for the fall! They’re also the perfect way to keep yourself looking cute, because buns can easily turn to curly hair on girls with naturally very straight hair. You can also adorn your bun with the cutest or most elegant accessories from your arsenal, if you so choose. Style your bun however you want, in fact; it’s a versatile style! Be sure to wash your hair with sulfate free shampoo beforehand for maximum results!

Braids

RemySoft hair products for remy hairWhat could be a more perfect fall hairstyle than a braid? It pairs perfectly with any season, and looks especially cute with a cozy sweater, blue jeans and boots. Best of all, there are multiple variations from fishtail to French to even halfway styles like waterfall and lace. The possibilities are positively endless, but still adorable and flexible enough for any outfit and occasion! Add leave in conditioner to your hair beforehand to really help your braid shine!

We hope this list will give you some ideas on how to style and manage your long locks this autumn. For other tips, hair care suggestions and more, feel free to get in touch with us at any time!

Low Maintenance Fall Hair Styles

Alas, summer’s drawn to a finite close and the weather is making way for autumn and its wardrobe of many colors. Out goes the days of short shorts, tank tops and suntans; and in comes sweaters, pumpkin spice everything and Halloween. With the change in seasons, you may be feeling it’s time for more change of the personal variety. We’re talking about your hair, of course! You’re already swapping out your wardrobe, so why not make a few changes to your hair to match? If this interests you, but you’re a little stuck on the details, we’ve put together a handy list of cute, but easily maintainable hairstyles you can try this fall!

Bangs: Not Just for Straight Hair Anymore!

Yes, you read it right! Even curly girls can rock a cute fringe this year. Such a luxury is no longer reserved for straight hairstyles. How can this be done? First, you’ll have to invest in some quality hair care. Curly hair is already hard to maintain, so adding bangs to the mix could easily put you at risk of rocking the poodle hair look if you aren’t dedicated.

Luckily, the maintenance for curly bangs is easy! All it takes is some anti-humidity products to ensure your hair is able to handle the fall humidity with more ease, as well as blow drying while your newly cut bangs are still wet to make sure they have enough length on them.

Updos and Accessories

RemySoft how to care for hair extensionsYou no longer have to reserve your cute barrettes and combs or your fancy, swooshy updos for special occasions. Thanks to international fashion designers, intricate hair decorates are in, and the best way to show them off is by putting your hair up. Feel free to decorate as much as you please! The sparklier your accessories are, the better. Of course, this look is meant to be dramatic, so it may be best to coordinate this kind of hairstyle with an event or outfit that can accommodate it all. If you’d still like to rock this look in a more casual setting, you can always strategically place your accessories in less noticeable places throughout your hair, or not use quite as many. Be sure to wash your hair with sulfate free shampoo and conditioner first for extra luster!

Sideswept Hair

This vintage look is also making a comeback this year, and just in time. What could be more elegant than all of your hair tucked to one side of your head, not quite as neat as the tightly waved styles we’ve seen for formal events, but more messily waved in a casual look? This style is perfect for those who don’t want to put tons of effort into their hair, but still want to look like they did. Just be sure to use some sort of product to help the style set. This style is easy to pull off with hair extensions as well, so consider looking up how to care for hair extensions if you want to add some length before trying it.

We hope these style suggestions have given you inspiration on how to style yourself this fall! For more tips on quality hair care, hair styling and related subjects, feel free to contact us!

In addition to your wardrobe, school supplies and other important matters, you have to choose the perfect hairstyle.

Braids

Use hair products for remy hair.

Hair products for remy hair are a must.

As you know, there are a lot of different ways to braid your hair. Since it’s still technically the summer, you may want to go with a side fishtail braid with a cute polka dotted top. It’s a clean and cute look that won’t be too fancy. If you’re not much of a braid person, you can still try a mini braid in a side part to add a little extra to your normally straight hairstyle.

Waves

You’ll probably notice a lot of people going with the wavy hairstyle on the first day of school. It’s pretty easy to do by curling your hair and finger combing it to get some waves with structure. We recommend using a sulfate free shampoo and conditioner the night before to really maximize the waviness the next day!

Ponytails

Keep hair beautiful with sulfate free shampoo and conditioner.

Sulfate free shampoo and conditioner will keep hair beautiful.

Instead of just going with a simple ponytail, do something a little extra. If you have curly hair, pull apart the curls and get them as high as you can on your head. This will give you an untamed look that is going to be the most unique in your school! If you’re not feeling too extravagant, a simple side ponytail shows your relaxed nature.

With the help of quality hair care products, your back-to-school hairstyle choice will not only be easy, but fun! If you have any ideas or questions about certain hairstyles you want to try, contact us and we can recommend the best hair care product to help you have the cutest hairstyle in your entire school!

How Can I Prep My Hair for Autumn?: A Guide

Keep your fall hair color looking great with quality hair care.

Quality hair care keeps fall colors looking great.

After a long summer of caring for your hair and making it look perfect on a daily basis, it can be easy to neglect it when autumn rolls around. However, it’s important to give your hair just as much care during the autumn months. As we begin making the transition to autumn, there are a few things you can do now to make sure your hair doesn’t go into shock when the cooler temperatures set in.

1. Help Your Natural Hair Texture

Knowing how your hair reacts to changes in climate will help you make an easy transition from summer to fall. Your climate may be hot and humid in the summer, but cool and dry in the fall. Don’t try to fight your hair and make it do something it simply can’t do. Sometimes even the highest quality hair care products can’t make your hair look as good as it does naturally.

2. Pay Attention to Color

Be sure you're using a great sulfate free shampoo.

A great sulfate free shampoo is a necessity.

You may have gone with a lighter color for summer or it may have lightened on its own, depending on how much time you spent outside. Autumn is generally the season for darker colors. To make sure the color stays, don’t wash your hair as much. You may even benefit from finding a great sulfate free shampoo to help protect your natural hair color and keep the protein and moisture levels high in your hair. This will ensure a darker color will look even better!

3. Volumize

As the humidity decreases in the autumn months, you will notice your hair getting flatter with time. Our hair products for remy hair include a great volumizer to help the roots of your hair perk up so you’ll never have the dreaded “flat head.”

4. Invest in a Good Shampoo

During the summer, you may have sprayed sunscreen on yourself when you went to the beach or other places. That could lead to build-up in the roots of your hair as you move into autumn. The best thing you can do to start the new season off right is to invest in a clarifying shampoo. It will help restore any damage and detoxify your scalp. Be sure to only use it once every couple weeks since it is potent and could cause irritation or even change your hair color.

At RemySoft, we have all the great hair care products for kicking off autumn on the right track.  Be sure to contact us for the latest trends and more tips like these!

How to Keep Your Remy Wig Safe and Comfortable This Summer

We'll give you only the best tips on how to care for a wig.You want to look good every time of year, but especially during the summer. The problem, however, comes from all of the heat bearing down, persistent and at times overpowering. If you’re a wig owner, this can present a special conundrum altogether. You don’t want to go without your wig for the day during an outing, but you don’t want to sweat it out either. What is there to do?

With these tips from us, you’ll not only know how to care for a wig throughout the summer months, but be able to rock it just as easily as you do during the rest of the year!

Cover Yourself

RemySoft full cap partial cap hair replacementOne easy way to help your wig look its best this summer is to protect it in the same way you would your natural hair, with a shady accessory like a hat! A hat, scarf or similar addition to your outfit is a great way to stay cool and block your wig from those harmful UV rays. Best of all, a well-coordinated piece of head wear will boost your summer wardrobe tenfold! If you’re worried about your wig losing its grip as you take your hat off, you can always invest in a liner. This will take care of any sweat beading up along your hairline and keep your wig nice, dry and tidy.

Ditch the Cap

While this idea may certainly sound unorthodox, you’ll be able to stay that much cooler if you stop relying on a wig cap during the summer. In fact, you can buy wigs that are perfectly wearable without a cap! You won’t have to worry about the quality of the wig, either. Wigs without a cap are just as wearable as wigs with caps. The only differences are breathability and their weight because they’re designed to be worn during warm weather months.

Invest in Protective Products

Because wigs cannot replenish their moisture the way hair attached to the scalp can, a wig is far more prone to heat damage and dryness, which shortens its lifespan tremendously. To fix this, start using wig shampoo and conditioner. This will help keep the wig hydrated and less vulnerable to harmful sun rays, enabling you to wear your wig as much as you want, even when it’s scorching out! There are other products you can invest in as well for the health of your wig. This includes sprays meant to boost the sheen of your wig. Finally, you should give your wig a nice shampoo after wearing it for five times in a row, at the most. While this may seem excessive, taking the time to perform a wig wash will help eliminate damage from your sweat.

There are many other ways to protect your wig from the summer heat, but these few suggestions are some of the most important to follow. We at RemySoft can help you with any dimension of your remy wig care needs, including full cap and partial cap hair replacement and more. Contact us to learn how you can help your wigs stay at their fullest potential!

The Top Three Summer Hair Problems (and How to Resolve Them!)

 

While summer is perhaps one of the most enjoyable seasons for many, thanks to its ample supply of free time and opportunities for outings with friends, it isn’t so good for your hair. The summer sun inflicts a lot of damage on your hair and can easily render it a barely manageable mess. If you’ve dealt with this unfortunate downside of the summer, we are here to the rescue! Here are a few handy tips for sun protection for hair, as well as helpful information and why and how your hair can go wrong.

For Frizziness…

Nearly everyone has dealt with this beast of a hair problem at some point, when a frayed, cloud-like mass takes over the space where your lovely hair used to be. People who treat their hair frequently with chemical products tend to experience this problem the most. In fact, the chemicals are the problem. Perms, dyes and other similar hair styling tools we rely upon on a frequent basis can harm our hair by stripping it of the oils and moisture it needs to thrive. As a result, your hair becomes brittle and dehydrated to the point it will take in moisture wherever it can get. Summer humidity tends to be the perfect source.

To remedy this problem, you want to first invest in sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, which will help restore and lock in moisture within your hair. You may also want to consider relying on anti-frizz products until the next time you wash your hair.

For Dull Hair…

This problem is quite the opposite of what we discussed above. Rather than your hair puffing out, you may experience it weighing down until it becomes a lackluster straggle hanging floppily from your scalp. What’s the deal? Again, it’s the summer humidity! The excess water hanging in the air will easily latch onto your hair and make it far heavier than it should be.

To fix this, you want to try using a leave in conditioner and related products to boost the amount of proteins in your hair, which will make it more resistant to weighty moisture. In the meantime, you can use sprays that fight off moisture to help your hair thrive.

For Chlorine-Damaged Hair…

This problem is especially relevant for pool lovers. The sunlight and chlorine from the pool (and/or simply using far too much product) can combine to create less than desirable effects upon your hair, eliminating the sheen. Either way, your hair suffers from one of two problems: too much residue or too much dryness.

Again, a good sulfate free shampoo and conditioner should do the trick by cleaning your hair of any residue and restoring necessary moisture. You can also flat iron your hair to tide you over until your next wash day.

Slide into Summer with These Unique New Hair Trends!

With the advent of summer comes a whole slew of opportunities, from vacations to outings to splurging on a new wardrobe. Why not change up your hairstyle while you’re at it? Many trends are arising this summer, which you may not want to miss out on. Luckily, we’re here to inform you of what these trends are and how you can join in on them yourself! Read on to learn all about them.

Blue

Blue is a seemingly underutilized hair color, despite its flexibility and ability to look great on just about anyone. Blue comes in such a large variety of shades that, if you are interested in trying out an unnatural hair color, you should be able to find the perfect hue for you. Furthermore, there are many ways to implement it into your locks, such as through a bit of peekaboo highlighting on your ends, covering your entire hair or streaking it through and blending it in with a cool shade of black. Either way, you’re sure to turn heads with hair of this color, as well as love the way it looks on you!

 

Ronze

You may have heard of bronde hair. Ronze is essentially bronde’s counterpart but tailored toward those with naturally ginger locks. Much like blue hair, ronze is flexible enough to look great on anyone. While the style essentially consists of bronzy and coppery shades blended together, it can be altered, depending upon your skin tone. If you’re darker-skinned, you’ll want a much deeper version of this hair color. Paler people will want to go brighter. Ultimately, the shade of this particular look is up to you and your hairstylist!

 

Platinum Blonde

This is one hair hue that will never die out in terms of trendiness! While upkeep depends greatly on regular maintenance and a well-fortified supply of sulfate free shampoo and conditioner, you can easily make it work for you! Much like the other colors we’ve listed so far, platinum blonde isn’t limited to the snowy white you’ve most commonly seen. There are all sorts of shades for all types of skin tones, meaning you can experiment with as many hues as you want until you find the right one.

 

Babylights

Named after their youthful inspiration, the natural highlighting found in children with blonde hair, babylights are a great way to try out highlighting, especially if you don’t have a lot of time to devote to regular maintenance. The best part of this coloring style is it will blend easily with your root color as you allow your hair to grow. Since babylights are more about technique than color, you can apply this look to any hair color imaginable. Just be sure to invest in a leave in conditioner for that small bit of maintenance you need to take care of!

No matter what style you end up going for, you must remember to invest equally in sun protection for hair in order to help your new style flourish. Feel free to contact us for more hair advice!

Picking the Best Bridal Hairstyle: What Should I Consider?

RemySoft quality hair careThis may sound vain, but you cannot have a truly great bridal ensemble without the perfect hairstyle. Think of your hair as the pièce de résistance of your wedding attire, the cherry on top of the world’s most artful sundae. You can’t just pick a hairstyle haphazardly for this special occasion! You want something that meshes well with your dress and helps you feel even more beautiful than you already are. Here are a few questions you should ask yourself before heading off to see your wedding stylist.

Don’t Forget Your Hair Accessories

Don't forget to use some sun protection for hair on your big day!When you went dress shopping, you likely already decided on which accessory you wanted to go with it. For many people, this would be either a veil or a tiara, though plenty of other options exist and complement a well-made and becoming dress just as beautifully. You will have to consider the accessory you want to wear as part of your bridal ensemble while you’re deciding on a hairstyle because it will have to incorporate this accessory in some way.

Don’t Be Afraid to Experiment!

You definitely want to research all types of styles before you decide which one is right for you. The best time to do this would be several weeks before your actual wedding date for the sake of allowing yourself ample time to really think about this. Do a bit of googling. Sift through bridal style blogs. Hop onto Pinterest and flip through all the bridal images, saving the ones you really like. If you’d like, you can even consult your hairstylist with a few references you’re considering in tow. They can help you decide which hairstyle would be the most fitting.

Your Natural Hair Texture Matters

Help your hair look great on your wedding day with our hair products for Remy hair!Think about the natural attributes of your hair, as well as what you personally like to wear or what styles you have never tried before. You may surprise yourself by picking something you would have never worn otherwise but still looks splendid on you! Be sure to take other elements into account alongside your hair texture, including the venue and theme of your wedding. If you’re going for a traditional wedding, a classic hairstyle, such as an updo, would probably be more fitting than loose hair with a unique adornment. Be sure to stick to your quality hair care regimen for maximum results too!

Match Your Hairstyle to Your Dress.

This last point goes back to what we said in the paragraph before this: think about the theme of your wedding and what style of dress you’ve chosen. You want to pick a hairstyle that matches this, if only for the sake of consistency.

No matter what hairstyle you choose, there are many ways to create a stunning bridal look for yourself with the help of hair products for remy hair. This will prove especially useful for those planning outdoor weddings because sun protection for hair will matter just as much as the right style.

Consider These Three Hot Bridal Hairstyles for Your Big Day!

For most people, there are few occasions more beautiful than their wedding day. We know just how important and special your wedding day is to you. That’s why we want to help you find the best possible hairstyle so you can be the most stunning! In this article, we’d like to give you a few suggestions based on the most beautiful bridal hairstyles we’ve discovered this year.

Braids

RemySoft quality hair careBraids are always an elegant choice for any occasion. Best of all, they work with every possible hair texture and can be combined with loose hair for a more playful look, depending upon your bridal theme. The particular style we have in mind is, in fact, a mixture of loose hair and braids. Before having your hair styled in this way, you’ll naturally want it to be freshly washed with a healthy dose of hydrating shampoo. Afterward, you can blow dry it and then begin the styling process. Ask your stylist to scatter braids around your head in an array of braiding styles. These braids should not be too tight because winding them in such a way makes the look neater than the fanciful, bohemian style we’re going for. You can then bundle up your braids, either with the rest of your hair to create a colorful updo or just the braids for a romantic half updo.

Romantic Chignon

Shiny hair extensions can help you replicate these gorgeous styles!The chignon has long reigned as a signature hairstyle for women around the world. However, this version of the chignon is a little different from the usual fare. Again, you want to start with freshly washed and dried hair by curling random tendrils. You can then part it to one side and tie your hair back into pigtails, which will then be bundled into knot-like buns. Pin them together into a spiral shape and you have a wonderful, fresh and adorable hairstyle for your wedding! If your hair isn’t quite long enough for this style, you can always add in some shiny hair extensions.

Natural, Floral Accessories

RemySoft hydrating shampooThis hairstyle is sure to make you look lovely, as well as match with your bridal bouquet! To start this hairstyle off, you should first wind it into big, soft curls with your tool of choice. You don’t want the curls to be too tight because they’re only there to help shape the body of your hair. Brush them out once you finish the curling process, then add elastic bands to your loose hair in whatever manner you wish. The last step is to thread your flowers into your hair by the stems, finishing off this ethereal look.

At RemySoft, we are totally devoted to helping everyone look gorgeous, no matter the occasion. This is why we provide products and tips to help you maintain quality hair care. To learn more about how you can look and feel your best with your remy hair, contact us!

A Traveler’s Guide to Great Hair Care

RemySoft quality hair careWhen it comes to hitting the road, you’ll run into many emotions, ranging from excitement over all the sights you’ll see to worry and scrambling to get all of your ducks in a row before you take off. There will undoubtedly be all sorts of things to take care of. You may need someone to watch your house or care for your pets while you’re gone. Transportation may be an issue. Another important but often neglected aspect of vacationing is your quality hair care routine! If you’re going to be gone for an extensive amount of time this summer and have invested ample time in your hair health, you’ll want to keep reading this guide. We have a few tips to help your hair stay at its absolute best!

Ditch the Heat!

This saying goes not only for staying cool during those hot summer travels, but for drying your hair while you’re away from home. Rather than toting your hair dryer along, after a wash you can simply let your hair dry the old-fashioned way—with air! While you probably know this from experience, this suggestion will be much trickier for those with thick hair. In this case, you may want to plan a relaxing day at the hotel while letting your locks shake off the moisture. However, taking this step will be much easier on your hair throughout your trip. You can even compromise by going 50/50 between blow drying and air drying! Just be sure to remember your leave in conditioner!

Make a Pre-Vacation Appointment

If you’re planning on staying away for a considerable amount of time, it will do you a world of good to take a trip to your favorite salon and get a professional wash and treatment, if you’re so inclined, done. Compared to any home care you might attempt, the work of a professional will ultimately have much lengthier endurance, unless you’re a professional yourself! Taking care of your hair before you head off will prove to be much more convenient in the long run and keep you looking great for an unbelievably long amount of time, as long as you don’t go anywhere near the ocean, of course!

Be Gentle with Your Hair

Invest in sun protection for hair for those big summer trips!We know you’ve heard this a million times, but you absolutely have to be careful with wet hair, whether it’s from a dip in the resort pool or after a fresh wash. Wet hair is the daintiest type of hair and requires a different kind of care than it would while dry. Treat your hair gently with the help of a wide comb and absolutely no elastics or brushing. Finally, after you’ve invested all that time in washing your hair, you want the hydration and nutrients from your products to stick around. Take a hat and some protective spray along for some ample sun protection for hair if you’re planning on basking in the sun for a day!

We hope these tips will help you keep up with your quality hair care, even while on vacation! Contact us to learn more about how to keep your hair healthy and vibrant.
