"I wish someone would have told me..."

Do you ever feel shafted?
Left out of the Loop?
Ever think "common sense" would be more common if ppl shared?

You're not alone.  Well at least Im right there with ya.  It seems a common occurrence where in a situation I will be the odd one out, the one who didn't "know".  And perhaps its because, granted, I am young.  But Nevermind that!  Today I start a filtered collection, if you will, of things where I find myself saying, "I wish someone would have told me before.!" 

So, whats the first order of business?  Hair.

"i Wish someone would have told me...
In order to obtain better hair volume, all you have to do is push the 'cool' button on my dryer.

I wouldn't naturally think that the cool button on my blow dryer would create better volume.  But it Does!  It works like a charm!

While drying your hair with a round brush and blow dryer in hand(s), first apply heat to DRY then (immediately) cool air to SET.  Meaning set the hair...keep the shape...that volume we talked about.

Why is this?!?!

Well, we'd like the heat to dry our hair but we also would like to keep moisture in our hair.  Nobody enjoys those darn flyaways or frizz.  Upon drying your hair, the heat is opening the hair cuticles therefore subjecting them to dry the hair faster.But once the hair is dry those same cuticles should be closed therefore locking in the moisture our hair so desperately needs.  So thats where the cool button comes into play. You then close the cuticles by cooling them therefore locking in the moisture and importantly the volume we crave.
