HOW TO: MAKE YOUR HAIR LOOK GOOD IN PHOTOS: TIP #1
So the first step to making your hair look in photos is to make sure that you tame any unattractive frizziness or flyaways before you start snapping away. Your hair may look perfectly fine in the mirror, but the minute a camera appears - it seems to pick up every.single.strand. Ugh. All you need to combat the dreaded wispy strands is a smoothing serum. Yup, it’s really that easy. Our go to smoothing serum is the Tigi S Smoothing Lusterizer, this is our little savior and all you have to do is rub a little between your palms and then gently smooth over any wispy parts of your hair, especially those prone to flyways/frizzness.

Now, if you want your tresses to look oh so perfect in photos - you need to find a happy medium on the volume front. Cameras can be harsh so generally, it’s best to shy away from beauty pageant style volume which makes your hair bigger than your hair. Instead, if you have fine hair be sure to prep your locks with the Tigi Bed Head Styleshots Epic Volume Shampoo and conditioner before any occasion where you know you’re going to have some photos taken. This duo will work to add some volume to your tresses without creating toooo much volume. And if you’re lucky enough to have thick locks, opt for a smooth and sleek hairstyle to avoid an photo mishappening. Think Kim K for selfie inspo, her hair always has a little volume but never too much. The result?! Perfection!

Our last but by no means last tip, hairspray! Hairspray is a definite must have for a night out where of course, there will be plenty of photos being taken. But, did you know that applying too much hairspray to your locks can result in stiff and unnatural looking tresses? So, once you’ve achieved your perfect hairstyle, do not, we repeat, do not plaster your hair in hairspray until it’s completely rigid - instead, be a little more frugal with your spritzes. Hair that has movement will always look waay better in photos than over styled and overworked locks. For major hold without the stiffness, our go to hairspray is of course the Tigi Bed Head Rockaholic Fun Times Flexible Hairspray.
