The sleek ponytail: bad hair day saviour

Bad hair days are the bane of most women’s lives. Dull hair that lies flat or becomes greasy quickly is something we all have to deal with from time to time. The pros have the ideal solution to get your locks looking fab in no time at all!
 
Yes, the sleek ponytail is a quick-fix solution to those bad hair days. ‘Not enough time to spare to wash your hair? Even less for blow-drying? Don’t panic, simply tie up your lengths. Opening up your face will focus all of the attention on your features, not your unruly mane’.
 
Be aware, however, that not everybody is a fan of this strict look. ‘Although this ponytail is very on-trend right now, it has a tendency of hardening the wearers features. Find out whether the sleek ponytail is right for you with a trial run at home one day, making sure you can see your hairstyle from all angles in a mirror to get a better idea. It’s important to be able to see your style from every angle for optimum results’.
 
Decided that the sleek ponytail is just what you’re after? ‘Whatever the cause of your bad hair day, spritz Shine Spray from the roots right down to the ends. This will create a radiant glossy sheen, not to mention a wonderful fruity aroma. There’s no better way to put an end to those annoying days when your hair simply won’t do what it’s told!’
 
Our advice: Remember that the only way to boost volume without shampooing your hair is to use dry shampoo…your new best friend. Keep a miniature can handy in your purse for on-the-go touch-ups throughout the day.
