How To: Styling Your Post-Workout Hair

Working out is a necessary evil and as your big day approaches you still want to stay looking cute and fresh and not a hot sweaty mess. Let’s face it, washing hair every day is a chore at best. Not only is it time-consuming but it also strips your hair of natural oils and sends you down a path of frizz and extra styling which damage and dry out your hair. There are so many cute looks that can be achieved post workout to keep time on your side and your locks looking luxe.

Kevin Murphy Untangled or Fresh.Hair are both fantastic products to refresh your hair and have you smelling sweet like a Kakadu Plum. Both are going to’s in my kit. Fresh hair dry cleans your hair and removes odors and excess oil from your hair leaving it cleaned and ready for action outside of the gym. Untangled adds incredible moisture, softens and tames frizz all with a delicious scent-perfect base for a braid or ponytail.

GREAT LOOKS TO TRY POST WORKOUT

  • Top knot
  • Ponytail (messy or sleek)
  • Braids
  • Half up half down
  • Messy waves
  • Loose twists
  • Messy Bun
  • Ponytail with a messy braid

HOW TO:

LOOK 1: Take hair out from your gym pony. Spritz with Fresh Hair this will instantly freshen and give some life and texture back to your hair. Loosely dry with gym hairdryer for a quick minute. Separate hair into 3 sections and start braiding. Make sure you loosen the look every few braids. Remember, with braiding it is up to you. You can braid only along your scalp and then tie off the rest of your hair into a pony or braid all the way through. Both look chic.

LOOK 2: Spritz hair with Untangled and let air dry for a minute or so. This will create soft fresh smelling hair. Taking 1.5-inch sections loosely twist the hair all the way down to the end and secure with a pin. Keep doing this with several pieces. You can create such interesting looks with a twisted style. This style looks like you have spent hours at the salon but only takes seconds to do!
