Hair fibres are quick and easy, which makes them simple to fit into a busy life. But different situations call for slightly different approaches. Here is how to get the best from your fibres wherever your day takes you.
For work
- Add fibres as the last step of your morning routine, once your hair is dry and styled.
- Use thin layers and a light mist of hold spray so they stay put through meetings and the commute.
- Check in daylight before you leave, as office lighting can look different.
- Keep a small comb at your desk for a quick tidy-up.
For the gym and sport
- Apply after exercise, not before. Sweat can make fibres clump or run, and they are not designed to withstand heavy sweating or swimming.
- Shower and wash your hair first, then dry, style and apply.
- If you need to apply beforehand, use a thin layer and a firm hold spray, and blot sweat gently rather than wiping.
For travel and holidays
- Check the rules for powders and sprays in hand luggage with your airline.
- Pack your fibres in a sealed bag inside a hard case to stop them from leaking.
- Bring a hold spray and a small comb.
- Plan for the weather. Humidity, wind and rain all affect fibres, so a hat or umbrella can come in handy.
- Avoid applying before swimming. Apply afterwards, once your hair is dry.
For weddings, parties and special occasions
- Do a practice run a few days before, so you know how much to use and how it looks in photos.
- Choose your shade in daylight.
- Apply in thin layers and finish with hold spray for staying power.
- Take a small comb and the bottle in case you need a quick touch-up.
- Keep away from hugging with your head against clothes straight after applying, and let the hold spray dry first.
For hot weather
- Use a thinner layer, since less product is needed.
- Blot sweat gently with a tissue.
- Reapply lightly if needed.
For cold and wet weather
- A hat is fine once the fibres are set. Let the hold spray dry for a minute or two first.
- Carry an umbrella, since heavy rain can wash some fibres out.
At bedtime
- Brush your hair gently to remove loose fibres.
- Wash your hair and scalp thoroughly at the end of the day if you prefer.
- A dark pillowcase can hide any transfer.
