Looking truly sexy involves knowing what to bare—and what to keep under wraps. Otherwise, where’s the mystery? “Choose one—only one—body part and show it off,” advises Jen Rade, stylist to Jenna Fischer andAngelina Jolie. “If it’s cleavage, don’t show your legs. If it’s your legs, stay covered on top.”

There is nothing better than taking your heels off after a day at work, a feeling Holly Willoughby undoubtedly shares after she was spotted carrying her black skyscrapers on Monday.

The TV presenter looked stunning as she left the ITV studios after filming This Morning with Dermot O’Leary, who is filling in for Phillip Schofield this week.

After changing out of her figure-hugging dress, the 32-year-old was seen stepping out in a pair of dark, skinny jeans as well as a cosy looking coat.

As always Holly’s hair and make-up looked immaculate as she carried some serious arm-candy: a grey and gold Birkin handbag.

For the show, the star had displayed her enviable figure in a purple v-neck dress and black, opaque tights

7 Life-Changing Habits for Your Most Gorgeous Hair Ever

Posted on

Have you ever looked at a woman on a blistery day, wind whipping your hair all akimbo, and noticed her tresses look…perfect. How does she do it? It’s all in how you care for your hair, baby. Granted, hair that doesn’t move is either under a hat or a serious amount of styling product. But that shine, those perfectly un-split ends…that’s taking care of your assets in between styling sessions.

If you’ve ever wondered how to separate haircare fact from fiction (no, trimming your hair does NOT make it grow faster), we’re here to help. Live by these seven rules and you’ll be on your way to giving yourself the hair you’ve always dreamed of. Note: healthy hair is also a product of taking care of your body and your stress level. As if you needed another reason to be an all-around healthy gal, add gorgeous hair to the list. Now, here are the ways to protect hair and treat it right, once and for all!

1.) Skip Daily Shampooing

If you’re washing your hair every day, you’re doing it a major drying-out disservice. I know, you’re like, “But I have super oily hair!” That’s what dry shampoo is for. Or just warm water in the shower. You do not need to shampoo every day. Every other day is plenty and your hair will look better for it. Trust. Try to keep the shampoo on your scalp and the conditioner for your lengths and ends, too.

2.) Stock Up on Vitamins 

Look at the labels of the products you buy and stick to nourishing natural vitamins, minerals and even oils. They do your hair good, just as they do the rest of you good when you eat them. In fact, consuming healthier foods will directly contribute to healthier hair. Think of essential fatty acids, leafy greens and vitamins A, E and C.

3.) Brush Sparingly 

There’s only one reason to brush your hair — ever. If you’re being a good girl and haven’t shampooed it in two or three days, you might notice some oil buildup on your roots. That’s natural, normal and healthy. Use a boar bristle brush from root to tip to distribute that natural shine serum from the top of your head to the tips. Otherwise, stick to combing. Combs don’t flatten your volume or reduce your natural wavy or curly texture.

4.) Dye Wisely and Only Out of Necessity 

It’s sort of common sense to dye your hair sparingly, right? But if you’re an at-home dyer, here’s another tip that will make your hair look 25 when you’re 45: Dye only your roots on a four to six week basis. This saves the length and ends of your hair from extra damage. As for the rest of your hair, it can be dyed only a few times per year if it’s particularly faded or brassy. As a blonde who’s been dying her hair for 15 years and using this method, I revel in compliments about how healthy my hair looks. People assume it’s natural – nope!

5.) Listen to your Scalp 

Your scalp is an indicator of your hair type. If it’s oily, are your strands. If it’s dry and flaky, expect brittle, breakable hair. Depending on what you observe, choose your haircare products. Moisturizing for you dry types and clarifying for extra oily scalps.

6.) Use Protection 

Like skin, hair retains damage from heavy and repeated sun exposure. If you can wear a hat on a sunny day, do so. Now imagine what a blower and flat iron are doing to your strands. Yikes. Too many women think heat-protectant creams and sprays are an unnecessary add-on to their haircare regime, but without them, you might as well be hanging out in the middle of the Sahara in your polka dot bikini sans sunscreen.

7.) Stay Trimmed 

Once and for all, keeping hair trimmed does not promote growth. You hair grows from your roots, not your ends. What getting your hair trimmed actually does for you is keep your ends looking…trimmed and healthy! It also allows your hair to look its best while it grows out. Split ends don’t necessarily stop at the tips either. Without a trim, they’ll just keep moving up the hair shaft, meaning you could be in for losing more hair than you want when you sit down in your stylists chair.

Your Best New Year’s Eve Hairstyle Is One Accessory Away

New Year’s Eve may be about the Champagne, the mingling, and watching the fireworks, but it’s also about acing the perfect hairstyle. Where do you even begin? Moroccanoil artistic director Antonio Corral Calero has a few tips to take your New Year’s Eve mane from blah to beautiful, so you can focus on more pressing matters . . . like finding someone to smooch at midnight.

“Personally, I love when women have a beautiful, detailed dress and style their hair with a soft bun to elongate the neck and really show off the dress, creating an elegant and glamorous feel,” Calero says.

He also reminds us to take the details of our ensemble into account — like if we’re wearing an open-back dress: “I recommend pulling the hair back into a low, loose bun with a few pieces falling down the back to enhance the cut of the dress,” he advises. And if big earrings are part of your look for the evening, Calero says to keep the hair simple and wear it back, away from your face, to showcase your gorgeous accessory.

When it comes to baubles in your style, Calero is also on board. “Hair accessories are really going to play a part in the trends this holiday season,” he says. “I love antique accessories that blend in nicely and accentuate the hair in a soft way and are not too glittery or shiny.” Again, Calero talks about balance when choosing something for your hair. If your accessory is over-the-top, then tone down your outfit and vice avers.
