Here’s how to style your dirty hair

This is one of Kim Kardashian’s favourites. Embrace the extra oils and slick your hair back into a polished bun or ponytail. Luckily, the greasiness will help with the hold and frizzy fly-aways. Kim likes to make her hair super straight with a straightener before attempting this one.

Have you ever tried to curl your hair while it’s still fresh and fluffy? While it may look great at first, it never holds. It’s well known that curls stay better in second- or third-day hair, so use some dry shampoo at your roots, and pull out the curling wand to create a style that’ll sticks.

Utilise that same holding power and get creative with a bunch of braids. Try a fishtail or an up-do with some braids on the side. You can also get experimental with pigtail braids, or create a braided crown across the top of your hair to keep the hair off your face. The possibilities are almost endless but you can find some braid and plait inspiration here and here.

A favourite for fringe-bearers around the world, dip your head into the sink and shampoo the fringe or crown of your head to refresh your roots. Make sure you rinse properly and blow dry for a quick clean hair hack.

Nothing says “I’ll wash my hair tomorrow” like a messy bun, so we say embrace it but to give it a more polished finish, use dry shampoo to soak up that oil and combine it with a braid.
