One common complaint my curly haired friends have is that it doesn’t stay in place for very long. So, here are a few simple tips that will help keep your updo perfectly in place for a few good hours.
How To Maintain An Updo
Make sure you pin your hair tightly. Make sure your pins are in a color that is close to your natural hair color. For some updos, you’ll need a lot of pins, and it helps if they’re all the same color as your hair. Hairspray. This is a law to live by! Hairspray will keep your updo in place for hours. You can carry a travel-sized hairspray can in your clutch or handbag. The key to holding pins and clips in place is to criss-cross them. This keeps them tightly intact. Spray some hairspray onto elastic bands, hair clips, and hair pins before putting them in your hair. This will help give them more grip on your hair and, thus, stay in place. Spritz some hairspray on a hair brush and then brush your hair. This removes frizz and keeps stray hair strands in place. You can try stitching your hair instead of using an elastic band or hair pins. But be very careful, you don’t want to hurt yourself. You can use clear fishing thread and a needle. Don’t wash your hair before trying an intricate updo. Most hairstylists will ask you to wash your hair a good 24 hours before styling it. This gives your hair texture, which will help keep your updo in place and intact. It is always better to use a curl defining and enhancing cream on your curls before you start your updo. Apply the cream when your hair is damp (not wet!), then use your blow dryer with a diffuser to dry your hair. Allow your hair to cool down and then begin your updo.
