How should I tip my hair dresser?

I usually add the tip to my credit card charge, but should I give him the money directly, since he's not the one at the register?



How should I tip my hair dresser?

Cash in hand is always the best for them. It should be 20% of your total bill. If they are very good to you and your hair and you want to keep them be generous. Do not exceed the amount your cut cost though. They will expect a similar tip from you each time you visit.



Good Luck



How should I tip my hair dresser?

Why tip a hairdresser? Why tip anyone who is doing the job s/he is paid to do? By all means give a tip if you think the service is exceptional and warrants it but tipping for tipping's sake is something that should be stamped out. You pay someone to cut or style your hair. If the price charged is inadequate it is up to the hairdresser to set prices accordingly not for you to pay above the price asked.



How should I tip my hair dresser?

If the owner of the shop is honest, the additional money added to the card for the tip should be passed onto your stylist.



How should I tip my hair dresser?

I tip mine with cash. Then use my credit card to pay for the hair cut.



How should I tip my hair dresser?

It's fine to put it on the credit card. He will get it.



If you want to make it clear you tipped him; after you pay go up and thank him, tell him you added the tip to the credit card. Say you wanted to make sure he knows, so he gets it.



How should I tip my hair dresser?

Its nicer to give the money directly because then we don't have to pay taxes on them...most salons are honest enough to give the stylist their tip...if I ever cought a receptionist stealing stylist tips I would fire them on the spot



How should I tip my hair dresser?

wher do u get ur hair done at??



How should I tip my hair dresser?

If you think he has done a good job to and if you can spare then why not?

Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any T

I have a can of batesse or something like that. it's dry shampoo. it's a spray on stuff. it's really good. not expensive either. i got mine from boots. only put conditioner on the tips of ur hair.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

iv herd puttin a tiny bit of talcom powder on ur hair or sumthin heklps..try it! xx



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I have this problem also if i use the same shampoo for a long period of time so try changing the products you use often



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Don't put conditioner on your scalp and use a good clarifying shampoo.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I have to wash my hair every day too.



Recently discovered something called Dry Shampoo though which you can get in Boots.



You'll find it in the shampoo section and there's a brand called Lee Stafford that comes in a pink can (anbout 鎷?) and another brand called Baltiste that comes in a green can (about 鎷?).



They're aerosols and you basicallly spray it on the greasy bits and it absorbs the grease and makes your hair look and smell clean.



It seriously works. I got up late this morning and have it on now!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

try herbal essences oily hair shampoo. It really works and you can go for days with out washing it again. Try it!!!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I heard baby powder or using conditioner just on your tips.



I have to wash my hair everyday I can't stand not washing it.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I use a different shampoo (I have 4 different shampoos) every time I shampoo. This keeps oil and conditioner from building up on your hair. Also, I only use one shampoo that has a conditioner in it. If your hair is greasy, you want to avoid anything with a conditioner in it except when absolutely necessary.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I have to wash my hair everyday too. If I don't have time, I just wear it up in a pony tail or braids.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

lay off the fatty foods, this really does have a baring on the oil your body excretes.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Are you using shampoo specifically for oily hair? You shouldn't use conditioners at all. Brush or comb your hair once in the morning and that's it. Otherwise you are combing any accumulated oil on your scalp through your hair. You are also stimulating your scalp to produce more oil.



Sometimes having a perm will help too.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

You could be overwashing it, this can strip the hair of its natural oils which can then lead to an overproduction of oil in the hair. Also use different hair products as using the same one all the time doesn't help and ask a hairdresser for advice.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Put powder against your scalp on the second day. I like to use loose powder (like Maybelline or Cover Girl). The powder will help absorb the extra oil.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I used to be the same till i started to use a shampoo for greasy hair by kerastase, u can get it at a reputable hairdressers, and it costs about 鎷?0, but now i can wash my har every other day, if that makes no difference it could be a medical problem or something horomonal, check it out with your doctor.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I agree w/ everyone else about the clarifying shampoo, the powder (only a little on roots) and switch shampoos your hair's probably used to the one you have. I switch between two brands, a salon brand and a cheaper one to keep my hair in good shape but not always have to be using the expensive stuff. Then that way your hair never gets used to it. Also, I wash everyother day because it's actually better for your hair and keeps it from getting too thin. Even Jessica SImpson washes every 3 days so dont think im woerd or anything... it's like shaving the more you do the more you need to. Start skipping sundays or something or wearing your hair in a ponytail on day two until your body chemistry ajusts and you feel comfortable. Good luck!!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

My hair does exactly the same thing it gets on my nerves too!! I buy a thing called dry shampoo. You spray it into your hair and then comb it out!... it does work i promise!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I have the same problem and wash my hair every day too. I've found that shampoos which are clear work best for me. As already suggested, rotate products, concentrating on ones what are specifically for greasy hair. What also works for me is to use a spray in conditioner (I love Aussi Leave In!) and use it just on the ends. I also just dry my fringe with a hairdryer and leave the rest to dry naturally.

when you take showers use shampoo then wash it out and then use conditioner leave it in your hair for about 10 min. and then wash the conditioner out really good, and when your still in the shower brush your hair under the water so all the conditioner washes out.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I have greasy hair too.



This may sound a bit ridiculous to you, but try it, I promise it works: When you wash your hair, wash it with shampoo first, and then again with soap. The soap actually "dries" your hair and removes all the grease and oils.



I have been doing that everyday for the last two years, and my hair does not look greasy anymore! =)



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

If you have to wash it, (I have to wash it everyday), sometimes I wash my hair with a small amount of baby shampoo and then Lot's of conditioner on the ends of my hair.



Or I tie my hair back and put Lot's of mouse on or hair spray anything that will smell nice and then I just wash my fringe, that way my hair wont be ruined with all the washing.



I have heard using an old pair of tights can get rid of grease and like someone said using talc, it's so annoying isn't it, I always feel dirty if i don't wash my hair,



And think that people are staring at me ha-ha



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I know the problem. I had the same regime for years. Only recently I discovered some facts about shampoos and conditioners that helped explain why I had the problem...I have made appropriate changes and ...the problem has all but gone away - naturally.



Typical off-the-shelf shampoos, whether cheapo 'own brands' from supermarkets/stores or expensive designer stuff, or 'specialist celeb hairdresser personality' creations...are almost all total chemical cocktails. (sometimes with an occasional minor amount of a natural ingredient added as a token gesture for marketing purposes)



Sure, shampoos contain detergents/degreasers. Very typically (check your bottles now) they use Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (US: Sulfate) or Sodium Laureth Sulphate. These are very effcetive degreasers - they use the stuff to clean garage forecourts...and they are widely used in personal care products.



These detergents (and their 'sister' chemicals Ammonium - Lauryl or Laureth - Sulphate) are harse and abrasive 閳?(weakening the hair and making it porous so that it easily 閳ユbsorbs閳?stuff...like your natural scalp sebum making hair look greasy very quickly) 閳? but they do create lots of 'creamy rich foam'. (AND these are simply one of many chemicals used routinely in hair care that actually undermine the health of your hair).



Sadly 'creamy rich foam' is a marketing nonsense that we have all be 'conned into believing' represents a 閳ユΜich luxurious閳?product. We have been 'taught' by endless advertising campaigns that 'creamy rich lather閳?means 閳ユreat product'...this is UTTER RUBBISH.



Imagine stripping all the natural oils from your scalp and hair - like these products/chemical components do - your body reacts in 'overdrive' producing more natural protective oils..its a vicious circle...your hair gets oily/greasy - you wash it again with harsh detergents...etc, etc



Eventually you think - maybe I need a shampoo for 'greasy hair'...EVEN WORSE...as it is essentially the same as the other stuff but with even more harsh detergent!!!



Then the resulting weakened hair - you start to support with more chemical laden conditioning - a blend of chemicals and synthetic waxes - with synthetic fragrance, synthetic colours, and synthetic prerservatives...You hair can become 'overwhelmed' by layers of wax and chemicals...so you really do not see or know what your true hair is like any more.



The radical (and I'd say only real) solution is to get all the toxic chemical rubbish out of your bathroom cabinet.



You should change to a 100% natural, chemical free product - ideally choose a guaranteed organic product (made from all natural, organically grown ingredients -so not even farming chemical residues can affect your hair).



From experience I can suggest Desert Flower shampoo from miessence, or maybe their Lemon Myrtle shampoo (which is designed for oilier hair - but is NOT full of harsh detergent). After the first few washes - you may experience a period of 'de-tox' whilst your hair sheds all the chemical residues. This can be a difficult period for some people - for me the transition was immediate and my hair just got better and stronger (and regained it natural colours). Some folks have a difficult week or so whilst their hair regains its strength.



As your hair gets its natural strength and consistency back - you should notice that it is nowhere near as greasy. I now find that a shampoo every third day is about right - so even though the product is more expensive than the cheapest brands - it lasts around 3 times longer...BUT WARNING..do not expect lots of 閳ユoamy lather閳?閳?just a gentle natural foam that is all, from the natural 閳ユΞaponified閳?plant based ingredients! (Stick with the transition... it is worth it!)



If you suffer from naturally greasy skin - then some dietary work could also help you. Drink plenty of pure fresh water. Reduce fatty foods to a minimum and other consumption of yellow fats (margarines) and use modest amounts of (preferably virgin) olive oil, or virgin coconut oil (expensive, but superb) for cooking.



If you have any health issues which could affect your hair/natural secretions, or you cannot wait to 'treat your hair' to a tonic - you could also consider using the 100% natural, organic conditioner - which contains ONLY natural and beneficial ingredients...not syntheic waxes and weaking chemicals tthat make you hair more porous like mainstream brands.



In my experience - and that of our family - this regime really pays off.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Get some hair powder it soaks up the grease. Only use talcum powder as a cheap alternative if you're blonde, if not you'll look like you have really bad dandruff. And to stop you hair from smelling put a little perfume on the ends.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

1. switch shampoo...



2. really only wash your hair a couple times a week... it takes a little bit but your hair will readjust and become less greasy and look awesome the second day



3. conditioner out of your roots.. put it on the ends of your hair mostly



4. keep your hands out of your hair!



5. blowdry your roots.. this will dry it out some.



do these things and your hair should be looking awesome!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Don't use moisturizing shampoos... like 2-in-1 and stuff... causes build up...



I also recommend changing shampoos after you've consumed one bottle... I have at least 2 brands that I stick to...



Wash your hair with vinegar, makes it shiny and reduces build up which causes hair to grease up...



I only put conditioner on the tips...like from the nape down to the end of your hair...



Avoid putting conditioner on the area near your face..it causes break outs in that area..trust me, I've done that mistake...



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

what products r u using on your hair? maybe avoid using conditioner so much! if u r using a high street product as opposed to a salon product this could be a factor also!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

i have the same problem i use lee stafford dry shampoo available from boots or sunsilk shampoo and conditioner its in a blue bottle especially for hair that gets greasy quickly but just make sure you put the conditioner on the ends and not on the roots as that sometimes makes it worse.



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

this sounds stupid, but it works.



wash your hair in washing up liquid about twice a month, it completely drys it out and stops it feeling greasy. all the rest of the time wash your hair normally but when putting conditioner on only apply it to the ends!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

I know this is hard but you have to leave it, washing it more makes your scalp produce more oils to replace the ones you are washing away so its a vicious circle. If you reduce it to washing every other day then down to every third you will see a difference. I had this problem and its hard but I used to just wash my fringe on a morning, that way when that looked okay the fact that my hair was a little greasy didnt matter. Good luck!



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

Dry shampoo? There are in spray cans. I like them, it gives your hair a boost between washes, so you can wash your hair one day, then use the dry shampoo the next, or whenever. :)



Greasy Hair? Its really annoying i have to wash it every day or it looks horrible the 2nd day. Any Tips?

don't wash it every day, it will only bring your pores up, therefore making it more greasy.

Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

I Have THICK wavy hair. I have it cut in a short layered bob thingy, but I have to straighten it everyday, or atleast every other day. I have bought expensive sprays to protect my hair, but nothing seems to help. The tips of my hair end up dying...they turn white and when i brush my hair they fall off, or i can just pull off the tips. Its so damaged and I dont know what i can do! I had longer hair, but I cut it, thinking if i cut the dead off and protected it before straightening it it would be okay. but no. and i cant blow it dry straight...it doesnt work. PLEASE HELP! is there any way I can fix the dead, or will i just have to let it grow then trim it, and try a different way of protecting it?? If so what ways can i protect it? IVE TRIED EVERYTHING! Thanks!!!



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

quit using the iron, cut off the dead ends and let it grow back out.......



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

stop ironing it dippy



be natural



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

How about you stop ironing your hair! problem solved.



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

Stop ironing it for a while, just have a break of it without sprays or anything just moisture and leave it breath for a while.



natural wavy hair is beautiful



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

get it permanantly straightened so you wont have to use the iron everyday. It will also damage your hair but possibly not as much so its worth a shot.



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

buy pantene pro-v time renewal shampoo and conditioner, it doesn't completely eliminate all your damage, but it gives your hair a much better feel and texture like you don't have all that damage. or use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner. nexxus has a great line, and they all smell soooo good.



also, you should get a better straightener... i recommend conair infiniti.



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

Try using a REALLY low heat setting on your flat iron. Or consider getting a new flat iron, because that might be the problem. Also, try using a deep conditioner in your hair. I use Redken all soft heavy cream and it really helps my damaged hair. I dye it and straiten it frequently, so i know how crappy and annoying split ends are. And try using different kinds of protecting sprays to see which works best.



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

Hmm



Well, besides the obvious of stopping using one, (btw, i was in a similar situation where i straightened every day, but i found that it IS possible to find alternatives - such as letting it dry straight, maybe even blow dryings? it doesnt do as much damage)



You could try to chemically straighten? Because once the hair is dead, is dead. There's no reviving it



Hair Damage Cause By Flat Ironing My Hair?

I saw a program where they used a relaxer (found in the black hair care products area of walmart and other beauty stores) on a white womans hair. They are under $10.00 and they work on my hair so I don't see why they wouldn't work on yours.

I really like how Miley Cyrus' hair turns out, but when i try and do it it never works. Any tip

If you could also give me a good shampoo brand it would rock!



I really like how Miley Cyrus' hair turns out, but when i try and do it it never works. Any tips?

I know how you feel! I have tried to imitate her style but my hair is too thick. I use Pantene. You have to get the kind of Pantene for your hair type though. I need more details about what kind of hair you have.



I really like how Miley Cyrus' hair turns out, but when i try and do it it never works. Any tips?

Miley probably uses some special secret shampoo, sorry



I really like how Miley Cyrus' hair turns out, but when i try and do it it never works. Any tips?

what hair type do u have? if it is straight, long, and thick, part and pin up different sections. take a section, and with a curling iron(waving, whatev) wrap your hair around it. release after holding a few seconds. NEVER use any heated thingg after putting a product in, or hairspray,(common sense, duh!)!!! continue and you will have pretty, soft waves. :]]



also, i use Aquage, but that's for wavy, frizzy hair. try sunsilk! i used to use it, but my mom doesnt buy it anymore. lol!



I really like how Miley Cyrus' hair turns out, but when i try and do it it never works. Any tips?

actually i have just about the exact same hair type as miley.



when she has her hair normal i think she does what i do; use a curl cream and a little bit of mousse to combat friz



and when she dresses up she uses a curling iron or she straightens it



btw, its all about styling your hair, no shampoo is gonna do anything super special, i wish it was that easy! :)

My hair was down to my back all black and i cut it short up to my shoulder. i need tips on styling!!?

if its shoulder length there should be great ways to style it.



you could curl the bottom part of you hair inwards or outwards, whatever you prefer.



you could stragiten it and leave it down.



you could wear headbands...those are in style.

Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

Ok, my hair is middle length. Brownish-black. At the tip ot my hair it is always curled. Not that really beautiful professional kind of loooking curl. It's just a curl that curled that sticks to he outside( if you know what i mean, if you don't, don't worry. That's not the whole point of this question)



How do i make the tip of my hair straight like the upper part of my hair? My mum said natural hair is the prettiest and won't let me straight my tips or buy a straightener.



Any ideas how to straight my hair without a straightener? I really want ideas that only nee a few elastics and water and tuff like that( if there is any ideas like that) but any other ideas would be fine.



thankyou!



p.s please don't tell me my mum is right and i should just leave my hair natural! i won't it straight so please just give me ideas and not just llecture me ! PLEASE!



Mwa mwa. thanks.



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

awh your english i love the mum thing but anyways. i think a great way to get rid of the curl at the end is to maybe blow dry your hair strait. if thats not allowed either. then try braiding it when its wet so that part stays down and doesnt have the oppertunity to curl.



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

try blow drying it straight and hair spray.



or you could apply water and right before it drys curly hairspray it so it stays in a straight form.



or otherwise you could use gel.



^__^



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

Hmmm...you can always try blowdrying your hair straight.



Will your mom let you use products?I guess not but a little mousse or something can really help.



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

I have the same problem, its sort of like a kink right at the bottom of my hair, although i straighten my hair , on days that i don't feel like it this is what i do...



I have this straightning balm that is heat activated supposed to be used by straightening with an iron BUT! i use a hair dryer for the heat and use a round brush to brush and dry the opposite way of the curl....



So yeah you could try a straightening balm.. any kind...



Herbal Essences, Alfredo, Sunsilk...



:) Hope this helps !



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

get a straight perm



Straight My Hair? easy 10 points!?

try using a straightening cream, like sunsilk. thats one way to make it a bit straighter without a straightening iron. use a de-frizzing lotion too, that always helps. but when you do use a straightening iron, take thin slices like less than a quarter inch thick and instead of straightening down towards your shoulders, straighten straight out away from your head. And add a few spritz of hair spray before using the iron, to help hold it.
