Achieving those perfect waves and curls that are all over social media can be a challenge, especially when trying to make them last all day. While some people are blessed with naturally wavy hair, others with straight hair may struggle to keep their curls intact. However, social media influencer Shay Sullivan has shared her simple trick for ensuring long-lasting curls with her 638,000 followers on Instagram.
Shay revealed that the key to her lasting curls is to use a generous amount of hairspray. In a video demonstration, she is seen spraying her hair until she triggers three sneezes, indicating that her curls are locked in place. She specifically mentioned using the Color Wow Style on Steroids Color-Safe Texturizing Spray, which is priced at £12.50. Fans were quick to praise Shay for her helpful tip, with one follower expressing gratitude for the information and another commending her for being “real.”
In addition to Shay’s viral hack, another tip has gained popularity online for combating frizzy hair during the summer months. Beauty booking platform Fresha suggests a simple homemade remedy using tin foil to smooth out frizz. By wrapping sections of hair in foil and gently pulling down to eliminate static, this method can help achieve shiny locks without the need for expensive products or heat styling tools. Tin foil, which can be purchased for about 20p per metre from supermarkets, is known for neutralizing static and is most effective for straight or wavy hair.
As we enjoy the warm weather and outdoor activities, it’s important to take care of our hair and prevent frizz. By following these tips from beauty experts like Shay Sullivan and Fresha, you can maintain beautiful curls and smooth, frizz-free hair all summer long. So next time you’re struggling to keep your curls intact, remember to reach for the hairspray and tin foil for a simple yet effective solution.
