Thanksgiving is just around the corner. With all the added stress of planning a huge meal, accommodating guests, cleaning, cooking and then cleaning again. It’s no wonder you can be left feeling the “blahs” when it comes to your hair.
Even if you’re not the one in the kitchen slaving over a marvelous meal, you still want to arrive at your relative’s house looking….fabulous. During this busy time, it’s easy to forget about taking care of your hair. With the weather getting colder, now is the time to be extra good to your hair and nourish it, just as much as you’re about to nourish your belly!
Holiday Hair Care
Significant stress can cause your hair to fall out. The last couple months of the year, November and December are the two busiest holiday months out the year. Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve bring on tremendous stress to your wallet, your body and yes, your hair.
To keep your hair looking great year after year, wash it with a mild shampoo at least once a week. Follow up with a great moisturizing conditioner and choose hairstyles that don’t require high heat settings.
The best hairstyles for moments such as these, when you are always on the go are low-maintenance looks. Ponytails always look great and work well, especially if you are going to be doing a lot of cooking. Decorative clips and pins can help turn your ponytail into a more festive looking one!
Tried and true, and never out of style, are wigs. It’s your choice if you want to go with human hair wigs or synthetic wigs, but there are some knock-out hairstyles that can be had with all types of wigs. Wearing wigs also allows your normal hair to take a break for heated styling tools. You can focus more on what you want to wear and not your hair!
Helpful Tips for Happy Thanksgiving Hair
If you are going to be in the kitchen working around a lot of food, try to use a hair net or scarf to cover your head. If you don’t have one, pull your hair back into a ponytail and secure it tightly so no loose hairs can accidentally fall while your are preparing your mother’s recipe for cornbread dressing!
Avoid getting to close to an open flame if you use hairspray or spritz and never spray these items around heat or an open flame to avoid injury.
Temperatures can get heated in the kitchen with an oven going all day long and extra people in your home. This is why wigs are so perfect for these types of situations. They allow air to get in to your scalp and help you cool off. IF you find that you are getting too hot, just step outside for a moment to let your body and your hair breathe.
You can pull off the most fabulous looking hair this holiday season if you just remember to breathe when you are overstressed, be good to your hair and don’t stuff yourself. That way, while your sweet potato pies are cooking and your turkey is coming out of the oven, you still look like a million bucks in your human hair or synthetic wig or ponytail. And no one will be the wiser! Happy Thanksgiving!!
