MIT Researchers Untangle the Science of Curly Hair

2015-07-08T19:11:45Z

They are the scientific discoveries that hide in plain sight: the mechanics behind ordinary phenomena such as the physics of bursting soap bubblesor how cats lap up milk. Now, a small team of researchers from MIT and the University of Pierre and Marie Curie in Paris have unraveled the everyday mystery of how hair curls under its own weight.

In a new paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the researchers describe their solution to what they call “the deceivingly simple problem” of knowing what shape a dangling curved rod, such as a hair strand, will form. Given a strand with a certain natural curvature, they’ve created a toolset to predict whether it will dangle long and straight with a slight curl at the end, or as a tight 3-d helix. It’s the newest finding in a field of science that unravels conundrums that can seem so plain and ordinary that the fact no one knows why they occur can be surprising.

Although such questions may seem trivial, they often have implications that ripple far beyond mere curiosity. Understanding why curved rods form various geometrical shapes could help computer animators trying to create more realistic hairstyles for animated characters. It could also be useful in the telecommunications, medical, or oil and gas industries, in which long cables, tubes, and pipes are unspooled.

“We try to develop very simple experimental model systems that allow us to explore the behavior,” said Pedro Reis, an assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering at MIT, who calls himself a professional “question-asker.”

“Science is all about asking a question that hasn’t been asked,” Reis said.

It was only after Reis and colleagues had started pondering the question of how rods with different physical properties and different curvatures would look when they hung under their own weight that they realized hair was a great way to conceptualize the question.

The researchers weren’t motivated by questions about frizz. In fact, the team completely ignored many of the questions that shampoo companies care about most, such as how, at the molecular level, the proteins in hair form a strand with a particular natural curvature. Instead, they were interested in what shape hair strands of various natural curvatures formed when suspended.

The researchers used a combination of experiments and simulations to construct a diagram that would allow them to predict where a hair would fall. By knowing the factors that mattered, which included the relationship between the curvature of the hair and the length, and the stiffness of the hair, they could predict where it would fall on a continuum of straight hair, to two-dimensional wave, to a 3-dimensional curl.

By coupling this work with computer programs that model the interaction of many hair strands, Reis thinks that the people who create animated characters could increase the diversity of their cast. Generally, he says, straight hair has dominated because it’s just so much easier to model a long, straight mane.

He also sees applications for this in industries that wind things up and lay them down. For example, he said, if you twist a cable a lot, it can develop a “plectoneme”—a mechanical instability like the tight twisted helixes that can cause kinks in a landline phone cord.

There are cases, Reis said, where the natural curvature of a rod could be used to delay the form of such instabilities. His insights might help scientists coming up with new materials optimized for particular applications in oil pipelines or medical tubing.

As a scientist driven by curiosity, Reis admits that the major irony of the study, called “Shapes of a Suspended Curly Hair,” is that he himself is bald. And despite his close scrutiny of curved rods, he still doesn’t know exactly why the stubborn kinks show up in a garden hose. That question, he says, is still out there for scientific scrutiny.

Get It Straight: The Curly Girl’s Guide to a Non-Damaging Blowout

2015-07-08T19:01:46Z

Getting silky smooth, straight strands is no longer a fantasy for girls with curls, but we want to ensure you transform your hair with ease [Read: no excessive damage on your natural texture.] We tapped into three experts to help you get it straight–and return to your roots without trauma.

Blow dry the right way
“Before blow drying any hair of any texture, you should always apply a leave-in conditioner (like MIZANI’s D’Tangle Moisturizing Leave-In Milk) or blow drying serum,” shares MIZANI Artist Leatrice Carter of Time Studio. “Next, you want to detangle the hair by holding it from the bottom, working your way up to the root. Then, blot the hair [with a towel] to pre-dry a little before using your desired brush, like a Denman or traditional paddle option,” she continues. “Your curl type ranges from a 6 to 8 [see guide here], I would definitely recommend sectioning hair into about 4 to 6 sections to help you gain more control.”

Always use a heat protectant
“A heat protectant is an important part of any blow dry,” says Roxy Brennan of Paul Labrecque Salon and Spa. “[These products] help smooth and protect the hair from the blow dry, as well as any hot tools needed to finish the look.” However, she cautions against oil based products that can conduct heat leading to further damage. “I personally recommend cream-based heat protectants applied evenly while the hair is still damp.”

Pick the right brush
“A round brush will give more tension and movement on the ends,” explains senior stylist Vanessa Fernandez of Butterfly Studio Salon. “Whereas paddle brushes provide less tension resulting in a more flat and straight look.” Carter adds, “Good paddle brushes have tiny protective balls to guard against hair damage. Using the proper brushes for the right hair type/texture can help to produce natural shine and body.”

Use hot tools with care
Excessive heat styling can cause delicate hair to snap and potentially eliminate the curl all together. “The flat iron is most dangerous of all the hot tools in my opinion,” warns Brennan. “It should always be used on low heat and with little pressure. Excessive heat and pressure could break or even burn the hair strand,” she continues. “Burning your hair will relax the curl–but not in a good way!”

Reverse heat damage
“If you burned your hair it means that the temperature setting on your curling/flat iron is way too high,” cautions Carter. “This can also mean you’re heat styling way too often and you should cut down on heat usage.” Her prescription is a good haircut and intensive deep conditioning treatments to reverse the damage. Brenna is a fan of Paul Labrecque’s Lemongrass Hair Deep Conditioning Treatment. “The oils will improve the quality of the burnt strands while increasing shine and manageability overall.”

Keep strands straight longer
“Starting with the proper shampoo and conditioner (like the Kerastase Nutritive Bain Oléo-Relax line) provides a good baseline,” says Fernandez. “It will promote shine and sleekness to the hair.” Next, a light application of Deesse’s Elujuda Fluent Oil post blow-dry can “help maintain that sleek look for the rest of the day,” according to Brennan.

Avoid (permanent) chemical treatments
“Most chemical processes deplete the hair of moisture,” explains Fernandez. “It is very hard to get it back to normal.” Brennan explains more in depth saying, “Chemical services affect the natural hair in different ways–what it all boils down to is if the ‘disulfide bond’ was broken. Once this bond is broken and reattached in a new pattern ( i.e. curly, wavy or straight), the hair can no longer be permanently changed back to its original state.” Unfortunately, your only two options are to let your hair grow out or opt to cut off the chemically treated sections.

The Dos And Don’ts Of Managing Frizzy Hair, Regardless Of Your Hair Type

2015-07-08T18:55:13Z

As a result of my naturally curly, textured hair, frizz and I have come to know each other fairly well. In the beginning of my journey to wear my hair curly every day, like a jilted lover, frizz kept showing up uninvited and making a fuss on every possible occasion.

These days I have come to respect frizz now that I understand how to handle it. Instead of shunning it, I accept that it’s a natural characteristic of my hair type that I can rely on when I want some va-va-voom volume without looking like I’ve been attacked by a flock of birds looking for a nest. Most days, my curls repay me by behaving the way that I want them to: with moderate control. Organized chaos, if you will.

So here are a few dos and don’ts that I’ve learned that will help you to stay on the path to frizz-freedom:

DO make sure to deep-condition regularly. I cannot overstate the importance of well-moisturized and nourished hair. I like Shea Moisture Deep Treatment Masque and Macadamia Deep Repair Masque.

DON’T use hair products that contain humectants in the first five ingredients when the dew point in the atmosphere is high (I’ll get more science-y on this in a bit — sit tight). The most common humectants are glycerin, panthenol/provitamin B5, propylene glycol and honey. If your hair is straight and you want it to stay that way, it’s probably best that you avoid humectants at all costs.

DON’T fluff or pick at your curly hair until it is mostly dry. Unless you plan to twist or braid your hair, leave your curls alone to sit with their thoughts on how to behave for the day.

DO invest in some good hair serums — this is especially important for straight hair. On days when the dew point is high, consider using products that contain silicones such as amodimethicone or PVP/VA copolymer. On both straight and curly textured hair, silicones tend to create a moisture-blocking barrier to keep hair strands from swelling into a perpetual rat’s nest. My favorites are Aveda Brilliant Emollient Finishing Gloss, Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum, and Biosilk Silk Therapy.

DO pack on the protein when conditioning and preparing the hair to block moisture with ‘cones. As I’ve explained before, there are several types of proteins commonly found in hair products. Protein fortifies the hair and can help to temporarily patch up any porous deficiencies strands may have. When used in combination with silicone-laden products, the combination is a solid one-two punch that’ll help to knock out frizz.

What EVERY Curly Girl Needs to Beat the Heat (and Humidity)

2015-07-08T18:22:48Z

What’s in your curl cabinet this summer? Get fully stocked up on all the best summer goodies for midyear hair care and summer styling! Check your stash to make sure you’ve got the goods. Warm weather means more moisture in the air and strong UV rays. Look for products that will give you adequate hydration while protecting your strands from the harsh elements. Summer hair care calls for lighter cleansers, UV ray protectants, sealing oils, and textured stylers.

Here are the best summer hair care products to transition to during the hottest days of the year.

The right cleanser

Light cleansers are often used in the summer due to the need to cleanse the hair more often. The summer heat increases sebum production and sweating in the blazing summer sun. Use Camille Rose Naturals Sweet Ginger Cleansing Rinse to keep the curls moist and hydrated while gently cleansing.

Light stylers

Light stylers are preferred to maintain your volume and define your curl pattern. Use a serum to illuminate your hair’s natural shine. Try Original Moxie Hold Up Defining Serum. The silicone-free formula contains lemongrass, white willow bark, and Irish moss! For wavy hair, the natural beach wave look is the perfect go-to. Use the Ouidad Wave Create Sea Spray with seaweed and algae extracts for nourishment but also for soft, flirty texture. If your curls are prone to frizz, try a gel for extra hold that won’t weigh down your curls, like the popular DevaCurl Ultra Defining Gel or a natural aloe vera gel.

Curl refresher

You don’t have to start your wash and go process everyday. For second and third day hair, create your own curl refreshment with water and few drops of lavender. If DIY hair styling is not for you, useDevaCurl Mist-er Right to deodorize and restore your style. Don’t waste your time styling your hair, you’ve got waves to catch.

Protein-free deep treatment

Opt for protein-free for the summer months to soften your hair for touchable curls, coils, and waves. You can find formulated protein conditioners by looking at the packaging. If you see the words keratin, protein, reconstructor, or repair, you might be looking at a protein-rich conditioner, which is excellent for mushy, weak, and chemically-treated hair. However typically in the summer, we steer clear from heavy manipulative styling and wear free flowing styles. Try NaturelleGrow Marshmallow Root Slippery Elm Bark and Natural Cinnamon Conditioner. Shea butter, apricot oil, honey, and marshmallow root makes this supper slippery treatment a summer must-have!

A summer oil

Heavy oils are not as necessary in the summer months. Instead use lighter oil like the Sunny Isle Jamaican Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil with a powerful punch like coconut oil, which has a dual nature of strengthening and moisturizing. Apply as a last step to your styling and care routine or try it as a curl refresher for thick, coily hair.

So there you have it! This is your moment, live your summer hair dreams with these moisture loving products this season.

Do you have a summer regimen?

10 Hairstyles That Make You Look 10 Years Younger

2015-07-08T17:47:30Z

News flash: Your youth fix doesn’t have to come in a bottle—or a needle. Your hairstyle could actually take years off (or add them to) your look. Don’t believe us? Check out these celebrity hairstyles—each one gorgeous, of course, but also looking older due to certain overly perfect hairdos. Anti-aging tip number one? Mess it up a little.

AMY ADAMS

Older: Adams’s acting is above reproach. Her stuffy, shellacked chignon is not.

Younger: This braided and middle-parted updo is a great argument for revisiting your Pippi Longstocking days. Just remember: Twisted up into a bun, braids look chic; worn down, they really only belong on the playground.

BEYONCÉ

Older: This is pageant hair, and pageant hair is aging. (Unless you’re in a Miss Octogenarian contest.)

Younger: To get Beyoncé’s loose, carefree (and young-looking) waves, rake a tangerine-size dollop of light-hold mousse from roots to ends. Let hair air-dry, then wrap sections of various sizes—so it doesn’t look too done—around a medium-barrel curling iron for five seconds each. Finish by running your fingers through it to break up any stubbornly perfect curls.

KATE MOSS

Older: If these droopy curls can suck the life out of the preternaturally cool Moss, imagine what they would do to a mere mortal.

Younger: Moss—and pretty much everyone else—looks cooler and younger with roughed-up hair. Take a cue from the supermodel and pair rumpled hair with smoky eyes and a stylish outfit to make sure the look is rock and roll, not just-rolled-out-of-bed.

The T-Shirt Hair Drying Trick

2015-07-08T15:37:23Z

If we told you the cure for frizzy, unruly hair was an old T-shirt, we would expect one of the following reactions: an incredulous laugh, a dismissive scoff or a disturbed stare (or all three, in quick succession). We don’t blame you — it’s hard to look at that ratty 8th-grade gym class tee and picture it being the hair-taming miracle you’ve been praying for. But today we’re sharing a trick that may just change the hair game forever … and all you’ll need is a plain cotton tee.

Here’s how it works.
Instead of drying your hair with a towel post-shower, swap it for a T-shirt instead. It’s that simple. Why? Professional hairstylist and Redken Artist Isabella Vazquez explains: “When [our hair is wet], it becomes weaker and softer. If we use a regular towel to dry it, the grooves of the towel become aggressors to the cuticle of our hair. Towels absorb all the moisture from our hair, when what we want to do is absorb the excess water without taking most of the moisture that helps our hair from becoming frizzy or creating frizz.”

So why swap in a cotton T-shirt? Vazquez says the T-shirt will absorb excess water but prevent your hair from frizzing. “The T-shirt does not have the rough grooves of a towel,” she says. “It’s a flat surface, so the water sinks into that surface and it slides through the hair instead of [roughing] it up.” She also suggests using a microfiber towel; it is lightweight and will give you the same smoothing benefits. This method works especially for curly-haired ladies who are all too familiar with frizzy hair fiascos; unlike a thick, fluffy towel, a T-shirt or microfiber towel will dry your stands without disrupting your natural curl pattern.

Here’s exactly how to utilize this trick.
1. After washing your hair, take a cotton tee and use it to gently wring out any excess water.
2. Flip your hair over and bend at the waist. Pull your hair through the opening of your T-shirt so that the opening stretches around your hairline.
3. Twist the T-shirt, turban style, to the end and tuck it underneath the opening at the nape of your neck.
4. Leave on for 10-15 minutes, undo and style as usual.

Some women prefer to put product into their hair before wrapping it up in a tee — experiment and find the combination that works best for your unique hair type!

7 Signs Your Bad Hair Day Means You Need a Haircut

2015-07-07T21:43:46Z

Whether you’re trying to grow your hair out or just struggling to make time for a salon visit, admitting you might need a haircut is always a good first step. They say you should have your hair trimmed every six to eight weeks, but it all depends on your hair type and how you treat your locks in between. Know the telltale signs to find your hair’s sweet spot.

Here are 7 signs it might be time for a snippy snip:

1. You always wear your hair up

If you find yourself always (and I mean always) wearing your hair in a top knot or ponytail – like, the thought of wearing it down never even crosses your mind – then it’s safe to say you need to call your stylist.

2. Your hair is limp and lacking volume

If, even after your usual styling routine, your bad hair day abounds, a haircut will add bounce to your step – and your locks. If you’re of the curly-haired variety, when your hair starts to form a triangle, that means it’s too heavy and time for a trim.

3. Your hair tangles easily

When your hair is damaged it tends to matte together – and is especially the case with fine hair. If your hair is still in good shape, you should find you’re able to glide your fingers through it with ease. Super-tangled means Supercuts.

4. You’ve got split, straggly or stringy ends

Check out the ends of your hair: If they’re starting to resemble straw or split ends are starting to spread, it’s best to at least get a trim. Products that seal split ends are only a temporary fix – a trim will ensure that your split ends won’t travel up the hair shaft, turning your bad hair day into a bad hair decade.

5. You have more bad hair days than good

If you have a better chance of winning the lottery than scoring a good hair day – in other words, your style doesn’t even hold long enough for you to leave the bathroom – then it’s most certainly time for a new ‘do.

The Sedu Flat Iron: A Must Have Hair Tool

2015-07-07T21:39:38Z

Sedu Pro Ionic Ceramic Tourmaline flat irons (the model 1 1/2″ reviewed here- ) have been greatly engineered and designed by a team of scientist and professional stylists to unleash the natural shine of the hair. It makes use of the highest quality of ceramic material as well as a unique polishing process that effortlessly glide through hair due to its microscopically smooth plates. This makes straightening the hair possible without pulling or snagging the hair.

No matter how long you use it, your hands won’t get tired from holding and maneuvering this light weight flat iron. With its gliding feature, users will never pull or tug on the hair. Also, its curved edge makes things on hair really easy to create a good bend at the ends. This is the reason why Sedu flat irons has been nicknamed a “styling iron” rather than a flat iron.

There are a lot of sedu flat irons out there, but which model is the best?

Pros

Sedu iron utilizes an optimization technology which controls heat and creates long lasting results. With the infra heat technology, the natural moisture of your hair is maintained, ensuring that no damage causes to the hair due to excessive heat.

The adjustable heat setting ensures a perfect temperature control, making it suitable for all types of hair, including the most unruly and the chemically treated hair.

The compact design and lighter, together with extremely smooth plates make every thing easy for users. The temperature control is positioned on the outside of handle to avoid users who may incidentally touch and change the thermal setting.

When it comes to heat tools, some appliances will definitely perform better than others. When searching for the most ideal flat iron for your hair, you have to look for the ones that will not only straighten it but also does not cause damage to your hair

Cons:

The contact between the plates is not very good because they slightly convex and sometimes flush against the surface. The heat of the exterior may get extremely hot to touch, which makes it difficult to squeeze or hold during use. Lastly, it doesn’t feature Swivel Cord

Features:

Handy heat-proof storage pouch
Curved edge ergonomic design
Fast heat up. It takes less than 25 seconds to reach the desired temperature
A temperature range of 240 – 410 degrees F
Super-Light weight design
Tourmaline infused
Incredibly smooth plates.
Its scratch-resistant ceramic plates provide even heat distribution for hassle free styling and consistent results. Sedu pro has unique curved edges and sleek design that provides versatility for different hair styles from flips, to curls, to wavy and straight hair types.
The product carries a 2-year warranty against damage caused by workmanship or faulty material. In this case, Sedu has taken the responsibility to replace or repair the damaged item within 2 years of purchase. However, this warranty will not cover damages as a result of unauthorized attachments, attempts at repair, abuse, misuse, or from accident.
The device also has a wide range of temperature level for all types of hair. With a temperature level of 240 – 410 degrees F, you can set it at the desired temperature of your hair.

This Sedu is by far the best flat iron – among the top rated by hair stylists. If you previously had one, it is hard to switch to other flat iron. When looking for hair straighteners in the market, you are probably going to have a lot of options to choose from. Very few of them will perfectly straighten the hair and prevent it from damage. The Sedu pro Ionic Tourmaline flat iron will be a great choice if you consider durability, safety, and ease of use.

New celebrity hair trend: Sombre hair (bye bye Ombre!)

2015-07-08T01:36:58Z

The ombre backlash has started – we knew the day would come. But don’t worry – the ombre hair trend isn’t going to hair trend heaven quite yet, it’s just going in a new direction. According to our hair stylist insiders, the next big thing is “Sombre hair”.

Just as the name suggests – it’s ombre hair, but softer (or more subtle).

Lots of celebrities have ditched the obvious ombre, and have opted for a grown out summer colour, a subtle graduation from roots to ends, a change that is so small but it still makes a big difference. We think Jessica Alba is the perfect example of this new trend – her colour looks slightly lighter and brighter at the ends.

We asked Jodie Papworth, a senior stylist at Headmasters what her thoughts were on Sombre, and she said: “The Sombre is having its moment – championed by celebs like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Cara Delevingne, we always see requests for hair like theirs and we’ve definitely seen a rise in clients asking for this type of colour, especially around our London sites.”

Who wouldn’t want hair colour like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley?!

Jodie added: “Traditional ombre – where the top of the hair is dark and the bottom is light, with slight blending between – has evolved into something much more subtle, blended and textured. Lighter pieces are being taken up higher, particularly around the face, and the lower lengths of the hair have ribbons of colour running through; it’s a much more wearable, natural look and really enhances any natural texture and layering in the cut.”

We also spoke to Gina Conway from Gina Conway Aveda Lifestyle Salons & Spas, and she too has seen a rise in clients wanting Sombre, telling us: “It’s easier to wear than ombre so we’ve seen an increase of clients asking for it in the salon who might not have been brave enough to do the full ombre, or want to shake up their existing ombre look without leaving the trend altogether.”

While we think this look is PERFECT for blondes (ombre hair is a tricky one for blondes, after all), Gina thinks it’s still a good look for brunette hair.

“It’s especially flattering for brunettes, adding soft gold, honey and caramel shades to lighten without the hassle of regrowth. It’s kind of a more grown up version of ombre which can be too dramatic if you work in a more corporate environment. Think Lea Michele, Jessica Biel and Kate Beckinsale as poster girls.”

Right, we’re off to book a hair appointment now…

Beauty or Brains? How People Perceive You Through Hair Color

2015-07-08T01:34:44Z

There are scientific studies proving the merits (and downsides) of every hair color under the sun — blondes get paid more, brunettes make “better wives,” redheads are seen as less attractive, etc.

No one study can objectively prove that one hair color is better than the next. But women who have tried out multiple hues can tell us what their experiences were like. Are you really treated differently when you switch between blonde, brunette and red?

Celebrities are. Olivia Wilde opened up to Into The Gloss about her experiences with hair color, confirming that blonde and brunettes are indeed treated differently in showbiz:

“I spent the first couple years of my career as a very blonde blonde. And then I went brunette for a role, and suddenly all my offers changed — the types of roles people approached me with totally changed. When I was really blonde, it was always like, ‘The really pretty girl,’ or ‘The sexy hot chick.’ At that point in my career, it was all lame pilots — those were the types of roles I was going for. And then, when I was on The O.C., it was like, ‘she’s punk-y!’ I had a purple streak in my hair, and I was the ‘punky girl.’ And then when I went brunette, the roles went to more, ‘She’s a waitress with a heart of gold, and a tough life,’ or ‘She’s a doctor.’ And I always wondered — would I have been offered those roles had I still been blonde? I don’t think so.

I think the perception of brunettes being more intellectual persists. Even though it makes no sense! I mean, Hilary [sic] Clinton is very, very blonde! And when I went from being blonde for a long time to brunette, I felt like I was invisible, because you’d walk into a room, and nobody immediately looks at you. When you’re blonde, it’s like you have a giant highlighter on your head; people can’t help but stare. So, it definitely changes how people think of you.”

“I feel like redheads,” added Wilde, “are perceived immediately to be kind of sassy and sultry, or at least uniquely… I don’t know, just a little more sassy.”

Wilde is not the first celeb to open up about her hair color change. Emma Stone has said that she was only offered certain roles as a blonde as opposed to a wide range of parts after she went brunette. Brittany Snow also said that when she was blonde, people acted differently around her. “There’s a misconception that blondes are a little bit slower,” Snow admitted.

But that doesn’t stop stars from changing their hair color faster than you can say “dye job.” Just this year, we’ve seen Britney Spears, Sofia Vergara and Ashley Benson hit the dye bottle, not to mention all the stars who’ve changed their hair for a movie role.

But we haven’t had every hair color in the book. Tell us what you think: In your experience, do the stereotypes about blondes, brunettes and redheads still exist? Did you get treated differently when you changed your hair color? Sound off in the comments and read more of Wilde’s interview at IntoTheGloss.com.
