Beauty Bargain of the Week - Tresemme and Top Model hair!

3 min read

We can all spend a fortune on beauty products, but we don’t need to. Every week, I’m going to bring you my ‘Beauty Bargain of the Week‘  – a product I’ve used, and would recommend, and that, on most occasions, costs less than a fiver! What’s not to like!

Who watches Britain and Ireland’s Next Top Model? I LOVE it. It’s not a patch on America’s Next Top Model, and Elle McPherson is as irritating as Tyra is brilliant, but it makes for a good hour of trash TV.

Tonight’s episode is a TRESemmé special, as the models go for Va-Va-Volume at a Barbados shoot. They’re down to the final six now, and the moels are asked to tackle the elements to create the optimum photograph with voluminous locks.

TRESemmé’s Lead UK Stylist– and stylist for the show – Matthew Curtis and his team are on hand to ensure their hair looks salon worthy on set.

“Every girl loves to have Tresemme Matthew Curtis BINTMgorgeous hair, so when we revealed the looks for this episode – bikinis and big hair –  all the girls were thrilled,” said Matthew

“There was one element which the girls had to battle with – and that was the wind. But,with  help from TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray, we managed to keep the girls’ hair looking perfect all day.”

So, what are Matthew’s top tips to make sure your hair doesn’t flop on holiday?We asked him, and this is what he had to say!
1.      When your visit  your salon before you jet off, ensure you explain that you want create volume – your stylist will then layer your hair to add texture and fullness
2.       An essential quick fix for fine hair is TRESemmé’s 24 Hour Body Plumping Powder ; sprinkle on at the root and massage in to make your hair look instantly fuller. Plus it’s the perfect size for your hand luggage!

3.       For bigger, fuller hair with a soft wave, large tongs will ensure there is more height and lift, creating that extra volume. Starting at the nape of the neck, tong the hair horizontally in large sections, working all the way to the top. Pinning the hair in place after tonging will allow the curl to cool in shape, ensuring the volume will last for longer. Lightly brush out, and tease at the root for that added “oomph”
4.       Never use an excess amount of product on your hair if you want volume, as it can become heavy. The TRESemmé 24 Hour Body range is lightweight with a volume control complex that also resists humidity – it’s all you’ll need on your summer escape

5.       Mousse still has a stigma; women are unsure of how to use it. But it is one of the best products for creating volume. I wouldn’t be without it when blow-drying, to ensure a big-hair look lasts as long as possible

“Voluminous hair to me is the epitome of sexy, enviable and flirty hair,” says Matthew. “Whether it’s a full and bouncy bob or long, tumbling curls, it suits almost everyone. Voluminous hair is definitely a style that makes a statement.”

With TRESemmé’s 24 Hour Body Range you can create instant voluminous, voluptuous lift.
