Reverse Shampooing: The Secret to Healthy, Voluminous Hair

Hello, beauties! Today, I want to introduce you to a revolutionary hair washing technique that's been taking the beauty world by storm: reverse shampooing. If you're like me, I'm always on the lookout for ways to keep my locks looking healthy, voluminous, and runway-ready. Reverse shampooing, is a game-changing method that can transform your hair care routine.

What is reverse shampooing?

Reverse shampooing, or "reverse washing," is the process of using conditioner before shampoo in your hair washing routine. It's a technique that's said to leave your locks looking fuller, bouncier, and more lustrous. Instead of the usual shampoo-conditioner sequence, this method involves conditioning your hair first to hydrate and nourish it, then using shampoo to cleanse your hair of any excess buildup and oil.

How does reverse shampooing work?

The key to reverse shampooing is the order in which you apply the products. By using conditioner before shampoo, you're creating a protective barrier around your hair strands, keeping them from absorbing too much of the shampoo's stripping ingredients. This helps to reduce product buildup, which can weigh your hair down and make it look limp. Additionally, conditioning before shampooing can help to improve your hair's overall health and texture. The conditioner will deeply hydrate your hair, providing nourishing ingredients that will help to repair damage and reduce frizz. The shampoo will then cleanse your hair of any buildup, leaving your locks feeling light and refreshed.

What are the benefits of reverse shampooing?

There are several benefits to using the reverse shampooing technique. Some of the most significant advantages include:

• Reduced product buildup: Using conditioner before shampooing can help to prevent product buildup on your hair, which can weigh it down and make it look limp.
• Healthier hair: By conditioning your hair first, you'll be able to deliver nourishing ingredients to your hair strands more effectively, which can help to improve its overall health and texture.
• Increased volume: Reverse shampooing can help to give your hair a fuller, more voluminous appearance, as the conditioner will help to lift your hair strands away from your scalp.
• Less frizz: By hydrating your hair before shampooing, you can help to reduce frizz and flyaways, leaving your hair looking smoother and shinier.

How to reverse shampoo your hair?

To try out reverse shampooing, follow these simple steps:

• Wet your hair thoroughly.
• Apply a generous amount of conditioner from the mid-lengths to the ends of your hair.
• Let the conditioner sit for a few minutes to allow it to deeply penetrate your hair.
• Rinse out the conditioner thoroughly.
• Apply a small amount of shampoo to your scalp and work it into a lather.
• Rinse out the shampoo and follow with a light conditioner if needed.

Reverse shampooing is a game-changing technique that can help you achieve healthier, more voluminous hair. Give it a try and stay tuned for more beauty tips and secrets from A Model's Secrets!

A single drop for bigger eyes lasting 8 hours- Yes Please!

BIGGER EYES with NEW FDA DROP

Are you tired of looking TIRED all the time with droopy eyelids that make you appear older than you are? Do you have one eye smaller than another? Suffer from redness? If so I have the newest latest and greatest fix and it's just a single eyedrop recently approved by the FDA! The retail cost is about $7 per vial and contains 4 drops.

To use, simply put one drop in the eye. Close eyelid and roll your eyeball around for 20 seconds. The effect can take up to 2 hours to work, although I saw results within 25 minutes. It should last up to 8 hours. 

You can use it for one eye or both eyes to get bigger, brighter eyes for a special night out, photo shoots or that date night on your calendar! 

Scroll down to learn how to order it online but first let me tell you about how it works.

The method of action of Upneeq is simple yet effective. When you apply the medication to your eye, it causes the blood vessels in the eye to constrict, which reduces the amount of blood flow to the area. This results in a reduction in redness and swelling, as well as an improvement in the appearance of the eye. Upneeq also works by constricting the muscles that control the eyelids, which can help lift droopy eyelids and open up your eyes.

While Upneeq can be a great solution for many people, there are some contraindications to be aware of. Upneeq should not be used by individuals who have a history of hypersensitivity to oxymetazoline hydrochloride or any of the other ingredients in Upneeq. Additionally, Upneeq should not be used by individuals who have narrow-angle glaucoma or have a history of angle-closure glaucoma. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, you should also consult with your healthcare provider before using Upneeq.

Aside from its medical benefits, Upneeq also offers cosmetic benefits. Many people who use Upneeq report that it helps them look more alert, awake, and youthful. By lifting the eyelids and reducing redness, Upneeq can help you look and feel your best.   

I found the easiest way to order online is through Skin Solutions MD Buy Upneeq here. They will ask you questions to make sure you do not take certain meds that could be problematic. They will ask for your doctors name but they do not contact your doctor it's just to keep on file.

 

 

After you check out they will ask you join a video chat with a nurse practitioner on your phone. You may wait a couple of minutes but not long. Answer a few questions, show them your ID and that's it. They'll arrive in your mailbox and you're ready to feel prettier. After all big eyes have long been associated with attractiveness. 

Your Welcome!

XOXO

Hair Loss from Covid 19 - Why and What can I do?

Could your hair loss be due to Covid 19? Or even the stress of the pandemic? It could be both according to experts in the field. 

Many Covid survivors are reporting hair loss. The cause is likely not Covid itself but the high fevers it produces. Fevers are known to cause hair loss and many sick with this virus experience days of spiking fevers. Psychological stress is also linked to hair loss.  

With a worldwide pandemic I'm sure many of us are experiencing this type of stress even if we've been able to avoid Covid itself, so I want to let you know a little bit more about the science behind it.

The medical name for this type of hair shedding is called telogen effluvium. And this type of hair loss or shedding will usually appear 2-3 months after the triggering event.

• There are different phases of hair growth. Around 85-90% of the strands on your head are actively growing at any given time - this is called the anagen phase.The other 10-15% of hairs are in a resting or telogen phase.  

• Growing hair usually stays in this anagen phase for 2-3 years before entering into the telogen phase for about 2-4 months. Then it falls out and is replaced by a new hair. It's common for the every day person to lose 50-100 hairs per day, but in the case of telogen effluvium you could see hair being lost in clumps with an average of at least 300 hairs a day falling out.

• When a person with telogen effluvium, again caused by some outside factor like fever or triggering stress event, the shock will push more hair into this telegenic phase and up to 30% of your hair will stop growing, going into the telogen resting phase before falling out 2-3 months later. 

The good news is that this is usually temporary and your hair will grow back within the next year. In the short term, considering adding temporary non-damaging extensions to help with volume and length. Try Hidden Crown's halo human hair extension which is attached with a single filament and literally takes only a minute to put on or take off without causing more hair to fall out because of tape or glue or damage.

Why Celebrities Love Hair Extensions!

Celebrities love extensions. I think long hair is sexy and let’s face it Hollywood is all about transformations and sex appeal. Celebs can have short lobs one day and long, luxurious hair the next and they use hair extensions to change their look. It’s estimated that over 90% of Tinseltown’s stars wear hair extensions. No longer a big secret, hair extensions are now easily available to the everyday woman and a great way to instantly change up your look; adding length or to amp up volume. 

Now more than ever it is easy to order extensions online and do it yourself at home. 

Some tips to getting it right:

• It’s important to remember that the roots of your hair and the ends of your hair are often different; For extensions you’ll want to match the ends of your hair because that is where your real hair will meet up with the extensions and you want that to be a seamless match.

• When asking for a color match use natural light for a picture of your hair from top to ends. Don't use a filter or direct sunlight.

• Make sure you are purchasing 100% Remy hair that is ethically sourced. Remy hair means all the cuticles are facing in the same direction so tangling is minimized. You can curl, flat iron and treat this hair just like your own. Hair extensions don’t expire but they will wear out from tons of washes and extreme heat styling. You can expect them to last from 3 months to over a year depending on how you care for them.

• Trust the company you are buying from. Hair extensions are not a regulated industry - you want to make sure you are getting what you are paying for and not any synthetic hair mixed in.

• Many people start off with clip in or halo style extensions. They are the easiest and least damaging since they are temporary methods that you can put on for a special event or use every day. My advice is to choose clip ins that are less pieces since each piece has clips that you need to hide on your scalp. My favorite are the halo headband style extensions.

Celeb-Fav Snakeskin Prints Are This Year's Top Animal Print

Take a cue from celebrities like Gigi Hadid and Rihanna and add snakeskin to your wardrobe for an on-trend while extremely classic spin on animal prints.  Both snakeskin and snakeskin-printed leather give outfits a sophisticated edge and might just become your favorite style pieces.  Go full-on and wear multiple pieces at once a la Rihanna, or take a subtle approach with an accent piece such as a wristlet or belt.  Everyone’s wardrobe should have a snakeskin boot, and I am having difficulty in choosing between a high boot, stiletto-heeled ankle bootie, or Chelsea boot.  I know I would get lots of outfit mileage out of all three! Choices, choices.  I also plan to pair printed jeans and pants with solid-colored sweaters and blouses as snakeskin really pops against all different shades and tones, just as easily as with neutrals like black, grey, or ivory.  There are lost of vegan leather and faux leather options available as well, and snake prints are appearing on everything from workout wear to lingerie, knits, and silks.  Bonus: these pieces will be just as on-trend for years to come as they are today.
