Sometimes we all need a little pick-me-up when it comes to our hair. But instead of wondering whether you’d look good with a set of full bangs or a couple of chunky highlights, just take one of these ideas, inspired by Glamour magazine, to mind.

1. Girls with curly hair could get an instant update just by loosening the appearance of their curls. Instead of slaving over your tresses with a flat iron, just tweak your blow drying routine. Rub in a little Leonor Greyl – Gel a La Keratine (Alcohol-free styling gel), then use a paddle brush to straighten out the sides while you dry, then use a round brush for the front of your hair and at the crown. Your locks will be curvy, not curly.

2. Get your hair cut in stages. Rather than going from long layers to a short bob within a matter of 20 minutes, try out a shoulder-grazing style first. Then, once you’re ready for the next step, have your stylist go all out.

3. Use a demi-permanent hair color if you’re thinking about a dye job. It will wash out in four to eight weeks, depending on how much you shampoo. If you really love it, make it last with a shampoo like Leonor Greyl – Shampooing Reviviscence, which will rejuvenate your strands. Then go permanent!
