Celebrating Good Hair day 2022
Good Hair Day is coming up and it’s the perfect time to give your hair the attention it deserves. Celebrated on March 26th, and originally created by hair care product manufacturer, GHD, the aim is to bring about positivity and feeling good about yourself by making the most of your hair.
The benefits of looking after your hair
Although we’ve already bought into the benefits of looking after our hair, sometimes busy schedules and commitments take us away from giving time to look after ourselves. Here’s a few reminders why we should try and squeeze in more space for hair care.
Good hair boosts confidence
Looking after your hair can help increase your confidence. There’s just something about having shiny, bouncy, or new cut or coloured hair that makes you feel instantly good. It’s the perfect accompaniment to a new dress or outfit or your make up. If you’ve got a social or work-related occasion coming up, getting your hair styled beforehand can really add to your pre-event confidence. Even if you have nothing planned, a new treatment or style goes a long way in lifting your mood.
Going for great hair is a good form of self-care
Looking after your hair can goes hand in hand with looking after your overall physical well-being. Building in hair care with your self-care will give you a rounded routine when looking after yourself. Nourishing your hair with new products, like hydrating hair masks, deep repairing and conditioning treatments, getting a regular cut or trim or trying out a new style are great ways of showing yourself some love.
Good hair helps you express your individuality
Whether you’re trying a bold new look, a modest new cut or a new vibrant colour, styling or changing your hair is one of the best ways to express your individuality and stand out from the crowd in all the ways you want to.
The overall care of your hair on a regular basis naturally contributes to its ultimate health and condition, resulting in fewer split ends, less frizz, and dryness. Not only that, but it can be fun and creative too. If you don’t fancy a trip to the hairdressers, try out your own new styles, like buns, braids or twisted knots and have some fun.
What’s the best way to celebrate Good Hair Day?
Try something new
If you’ve always used the same products and feel that your hair kit could do with a bit of replenishing, invest in some new products to see if they make a difference. There are oodles of products available now, with so many different benefits, you never know, you might find your hair’s new best friend.
A trip to the hair salon
A trip to a hair salon is the ultimate treat for your hair. A new cut, a wash and blow by a professional makes you feel pampered and relaxed. You can even make it an event by going out to lunch afterwards or treating yourself to a deep conditioning treatment while you’re there.
Give a gift
Giving a gift feels really good too. If you know someone who you think could do with a boost, or someone who simply loves hair products, then why not treat them on Good Hair Day? A head or scalp massage stimulates the hair follicles and can increase the thickness of hair, and many believe this can also stimulate hair growth. A hot oil or a Keratin treatment are two other favourites.
Be proud of your locks
Finally, if you’ve recently had your hair styled and you love it – don’t be afraid to show it off! Take a picture and share it on your social media. If you don’t fancy posting a photo then share some hair care tips for your friends using the hashtag, #goodhairday.
