Share:
PLANNING a New Year’s bash but got no cash to get your hair styled?. Skip high salon prices and create fabulous party hair at home. SOCK SAVER: Say goodbye to expensive curling wands and check your sock drawer instead. Take small sections of damp hair, wrap them around clean socks, and tie the ends in a loose knot.

Leave them overnight or use a hairdryer on a low heat over the socks for quicker results. When you unroll, you’ll have soft, bouncy curls perfect for New Year’s Eve. PLAIT ATTACK: For effortless waves, spritz your hair with water or a light styling spray, then braid it into three plaits. Gently blow-dry your plaits if you’re in a hurry, or let them dry naturally.

Undo the plaits, run your fingers through the waves, and finish by flipping your hair over your head and spritzing with hairspray to lock in a big wavy look. SPRITZ ‘N’ GO: Want beachy, textured hair? Skip the pricey products and make your own salt spray at home. Mix a teaspoon of salt with warm water and a dash of conditioner in a spray bottle.

Shake well then lightly spritz on to damp hair, scrunch with your hands and let it air-dry for an effortlessly tousled look. This spray also works really well on short hair — simply spritz on to a hairbrush before brushing through hair for a style that will stay put.
