On a daily basis I have a low key styling routine. I generally wash and condition my hair and then let it air dry. I don’t generally use heat unless I’m going directly out and I don’t want my hair wet. I’ll flat iron my hair sometimes if I want a straight look because my hair is naturally curly/wavy. I’ll use styling gel and moisturizers most. Sometimes a hot oil or deep conditioner pack. I don’t have a favorite brand of products I use but I do like natural/herbal products a lot.
i blowdry then curl the ends
I wash, use a 3-minute-conditioner, then towel dry. Then I blow-dry my hair, being careful to use my diffuser, since my hair is soooo dry.
I like all the Pantene line, so I use them a lot, and my shampoos and conditioners are varied. Thanks for the chance to win!
I use Aveda blue malva shampoo then I let it airdry (it’s short). I style with an alcohol free styling gel I got at a very cheap place. I also have Paul Mitchell hairspray but I don’t often use that.
I blow dry it and puff it up on the top with hairspray!
Usually it is just wash and put up in a ponytail!
I have loose curly hair so usually I’ll wash, put some mousse in and let it air dry. If I want it straight then I’ll use either biosilk or chi products and I’ll use the chi to flat iron it. I also use Oscar Blandi smoothing products to keep my hair soft and not a dry mess = )
I used to flat iron my hair, but after my burn accident I don’t have the energy to do it. I am waiting a few more months till I start again. Meanwhile I let it air dry.
I have really thick Curly hair. If I am leavin if curly I just throw in some mousse and hairspray and let it air dry. However, I am a huge fan of my flat Iron too, until a new girl screwed up my hair cut last time!! ugg
On a daily basis I do practically nothing to my hair! Just brush it!
I blow dry mine and sometimes use a curling iron!
I love getting done up and looking polished!!! So… I always round brush my hair w/ anti frizz serum then use two different size curling irons to put some loose beachy waves in my long hair. I then spritz with hair spray and tease the crown and maybe add a pin or headband for some sass
i blow dry my hair straight with aquana
Every day I wash my hair with Salon Results and allow it to dry naturally. I brush it several times to ensure all of the knots are out, and then brush it again after my hair is completely dried. If I choose to wear my hair up I use Garner Fructis hair gel.
My favorite hair products are made by Aveeno, but they are pricey. Unfortunately I have to resort to using cheaper products right now because money is tight.
I wash first thing in the morning. Then I do the rest of my routine while it air dries. When it’s mostly dry, I’ll blow dry it for about a minute. My hair is pretty easy. Thank goodness. If I go out or get fancy I’ll hussy up, but not for work!
I blow dry when washed, I don’t use a flat iron but my hairdresser does. My daughter just started using a flat iron but she thinks she needs a better one since I bought her current flat iron on clearance and it did not have a lot of bells and whistles.
I let it air dry
I style my hair with a blow dryer and round brush. I use Rocco Altobelli shampoo, conditioner, and styling products, although I occasionally use non-professional products, too.
brush and go mverno@roadrunner.com
All I do is brush my hair.
I use a hair dryer/round brush combo! I love it!
my hair is so fine it is very difficult to style and hold a style. I ususally put it back & leave it.
omg! my hairstylist uses davines on my hair, and i absolutely looooove it. i always meant to buy it for myself, but it’s kinda expensive
i shampoo my hair about 3 times a week, and when i blow it out i start by smoothing chi silk infusion all over it, then clipping it into sections and blowdrying with my T3 hairdryer. i then take the product pomade for hair (yeah, that’s what it’s called) and smooth away any flyaways. if my hair is too flat for my liking, i’ll put some hot rollers in for about 10 minutes and finger-comb through the curls.
I usually just wash and go, my hair is so dry it dries really fast. If we are going somewhere then that is a different story.
Every morning I wash with a color safe shampoo and conditioner, add leave in conditioner and heat protectant, followed by a blow dry which I finish off with a cold blast of air. Occasionally if I still have a few misplaced strands I’ll flat iron my hair as well.
I use gel and a smoothing serum and always blow dry my hair. I should use a flat iron but I haven’t bought one yet.
My hair’s short, so I just air dry with some Kiehl’s Creative Creme Wax
I apply leave-in conditioner then, I usually blow dry it straight & spray a little hair spray…
honestly I just pull it back everyday!
Mine is a pain so I air dry then straighten with the blow dryer then flat iron
if I blew dry it all it would take forever since its so thick
I barely do anything;( need something new!!
On a daily basis, I air dry my short hair with little to no product use. If we are going out then I use a spray gel if I want it to flip out or use a smoother if i want it to go under. Pretty basic here.
If I have time i blow dry a straighten my hair but as a busy mom its hard to do that every day. cottncndydreams(at)aol(dot)com
For every-day, I just let my short hair air dry, then push it into place with some gel. I save the rollers, blow dryer, curling irons, mousse and hairspray for times I really need extra pizzazz. Thank you for the giveaway.
Use a hair drier almost everyday, shampoo and conditioner Fructis. Used to put on a heat protector before i dried it, now i am in search of something else to protect my hair, it is super fine and it has split ends!!!! terrible situation
I use Avocado Oil or Virgin Coconut Oil on my hair, especially on my ends to keep it hydrated. This also helps prevent breakage, and promotes hair growth.
After I wash my hair I spray it with my aveda or queen for a day spray then I blowdry it upside down. I then straighten the ends (i have mostly straight hair) so I dont lose some of the volume and then I spray my bangs in place because I have a cowlick with a mind of its own!
I usually will just detangle my hair and then let it air dry.
If it’s a workday, 99% of the time my hair is in a bun! I do like Redken products but am constantly trying new things!
I like to put my hair in a bun when it’s still wet. It takes a very long time to dry but when I pull it down, I’m left with great natural waves.
I’m trying to grow out my hair,
so every month i have to switch out my hair extensions,color it.
On top of THAT
my hair is extremely frizzy and curly.
it’s almost like African American hair!!
so i chemically straighten it too
=P
but i’m into long edgy hair with tons of layers
i WOULD bleach it, but come on now::
look at all the stress i’m already doing to my locks!
Usually blow dry with a pony tail. I use Paul Mitchell products – Super Skinny and Gloss Drops are my favorite. Just a touch of hairspray to hold it in place!
Usually it is just wash and put up in a ponytail
i blow my hair dry and that’s it.
I blow dry most days and if I’m feeling really froggy I flat iron after that. I love how sleek and smooth a flat iron makes my hair. I really like it when someone else does it!
i have very long hair and sadly i have to wear it together at work :0)
I use styling gel. Then I dry the roots somewhat and then scrunch the rest of my hair until it’s almost dry–shake and fluff.
I keep my hair very short so I only have to blowdry and brush it.
I have short hair so its wash,blow dry and texturing paste and away I go.
Depends, when I’m going to work I flat iron it, on the weekend I usually let the curls run wild, thanks for the chance!
I style my hair by leaving it wet, putting some hair gel for curly hair from Avon on my hands and running it through all my hair, and that’s it!
Thank you for the contest!
My hair is very short-I just was and condition, then glob a whole bunch of styling products in it to make it stand on end-finish off with a super hold hairspray. Thanks!
I have super curly hair, so I scrunch and blot my hair dry with a cotton t-shirt, then put in curl creme and a water-based gel and let it air dry. I love Deva Curl – their AnGell is the bomb!
I usually air dry my hair. If i want it extra smooth and straight, I blow dry it. Thanks for the chance.

Just as simply as I can with some mousse
I blow dry with a volume product
I usually just air dry , then style with some texturizing paste. No particular brand since it’s a new do. I am still trying to find the best one for my hair.
I just cut off 6 inches of hair (and layered it heavily) on Saturday! What a change! I was previously a wash, dry, ponytail person, but it looks like this will be a little more work. My routine over the past 4 days now includes shampoo, conditioner, hot rollers and hairspray. I get lots of compliments and love the new style, and I think I look younger, but I had long hair for so long that I forgot what actually doing hair was all about! Looking for new product suggestions, besides goody ponytail holders!
I blow dry and then flat iron my hair.
Wash and go or moose. Rarely blow-dry.
Wash, blow dry, straighten…. this is usual but it can vary!
I blow dry and use a curling iron. I use a styling gel for hold.
I wash it at night, braid and sleep – in the morning brush out, spritz with water, and style with product and a blow dryer if I want it curly or product and a flat iron is I want it straight
I wash and blowdry and occasionally use a curling iron with. Nothing too extreme for me.

I normally have little time to get ready in the monring and like to just put some product in to give it body but when I’m not running around I normally blow dry and then flat iron my hair using an in styler which curls and straightens it at the same time.
Blow dry with round brush,gel, then use Loreal styling wax and hairspray
wash, brush with a big plasting comb, I put some volumenizing mousse and air dry.
I flat iron my hair with the Instyer. I usually shampoo and condition my hair and after coloring I use a cholesterol treatment on my hair. I have always wanted to try Wen products while viewing on QVC.
blow dry then use a styling gel for hold
My hair frustrates me SO much because it changes from day to day/season to season. All I have to do is open the dishwasher after dishes are finished and the humidity gives me a head full of frizz. So on those kind of days, I have to flat iron. Winter gives me a head full of fly-aways, so on those kind of days, I try to do as little as possible (with heat) to disturb it and would normally just blow dry it afer using some moisturizing leave-in conditioner and/or spray.

I have long straight hair so I pull it back usually with a clip, barette or in a ponytail. I rarely use any product on it.
I’m pretty low-maintenance because I’ve found that most styling products weigh my hair down. I’ll often put some cream in damp hair, braid it, and sleep that way to get gentle waves.
First, I wash my hair with Garnier Fructis Shampoo and Conditioner. Then I apply some Matrix Biolage heat styling cream to my hair. Next, I blow dry my hair. After my hair is dry, I either use a flat iron or a curling iron to style it. My hair is naturally wavy and frizzy.
I straighten my hair everyday with a flat iron. I use Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum! It smells so good!
I have extreme frizz so I use a variety of products to tame my hair and then air dry, unless I have a special occasion then I may curl with curling iron. Thanks for the chance to try your products!
