Buckets, Beanies and Berets, Oh My! ~ Hat Hair Prep

Posted on Posted in Trend Alerts

The most popular hat trends for this winter are Buckets, Beanies and Berets.  Fun and beautiful to wear but once the hat comes off, the hair can look anything but stylish.  So, what to do?  Have a hat hairstyle game plan and prepare your hair with the right products to help stop static and hat-head before they get started! 

The hairstyle strategy should be all up or all down.  Meaning when wearing a hat, plan to wear your hair either all up under your hat via a loose top knot or all down long and flowing.  If you are looking to preserve height on the top of your hair, style a loose top knot before donning your brim.  The knot helps maintain height on the top of your hairstyle once the hat and knot are removed.  Or leave hair down, cascading from under the hat.  But with either approach be sure to have a hair refresher on hand to reboot your post-hat hair. 

Try our P2 by Philip Pelusi RefresHair Smart Styling Texture Spray.  Its Sunflower Extract helps hydrate, calming static while White Tea and Thyme freshen hair’s scent.  This incredible multitask spray acts as a lightweight hairspray, a very helpful remedy for hat hair!  Lightly mist onto hair, brush through or just fingerstyle to refresh your look.  It’s so lightweight and dries in seconds.  Hair stays pliable never stiff or sticky.

Another way to avoid hat hair is add some moisture into your locks before styling.  Look for ingredients that help trap moisture and therefore help to avoid static. Start with a once or twice weekly deep conditioning treatment.  We recommend our P2 Deep Hydrating Hair and Scalp Conditioner.  It’s powerhouse humectant, Hyaluronic Acid, helps to hold onto moisture just as it does in rose petals.

Apply a styling static stopper too!  Try P2 Potion Smart Styling Treatment.  Philip’s proprietary Pelusi Matrix Blend adds 6 natural humectants including Matricaria and Asafetida that play quadruple duty as antioxidants, UV filters and strengtheners too.  Detangles hair like a dream and can be applied wet or dry to help halt static.  Apply a dime to nickel size amount to damp hair prior to any other styling product and style as usual.  Apply pea size drops as needed to calm static on dry hair too!
