How to do messy rock chick hairstyle like Abbey Clancy?

Q: I really want that messy rock chick hairstyle like Abbey Clancy's, but it's always too tidy when I leave the hairdresser. What should I do? Amanda Dooiey, Berkshire

A: Take some pictures of your ideal hairstyle to the salon with you so your hairdresser know exactlywhat you want. If the finishing touches are still too salon-perfect, don't hesitate to show them how you like it to be styled. A good messy styling trick to do at home is to blow-dry your hair upside down, spray some hairspray [try Sheer Lacquer Hairspray Shu Uemura Art of Hair] onto your fingers and massage it in circular motions onto the crown, rubbing it into the ends and the hair at your temples.-by James Brown London-

How can I make my fine hair appear thicker?

Q: How can I make my fine hair appear thicker? Claire Beaton, Newcastle

A: Use good quality volumising products like my Photo Fabulous Volumising Shampoo and Conditioner and a dry shampoo to thicken up the roots. Colouring expands the cuticle, too, so get it done even if it's just the same shade as your natural one. You'll definitely notice more body. -by James Brown London-

How do I get rid of my ponytail kink?

Q: I like to go out straight from work, but how do I get rid of my ponytail kink? Sammy Edmondson, Leeds

A: Keep your straightening irons in the office, put them on a medium heat and run them over the ponytail crease to ease it out. To avoid the kink altogether, don't wash your hair in the morning if you intend to go out that night, as kinks show up more clearly on freshly washed hair. Instead, blast your hair with a dryer and use my Dry Shampoo to style.

I hate my frizzy hair. Which treatment I should do?

Q: Rather than straightening my long, curly, frizzy hair, how else can I make it look polished?
Zoya Zir, London

A: I think the Brazilian blow-dry treatments [as seen at Blumarine pic] are amazing. Lots of places do it, they make your hair super-sleek and it lasts for about three months. Or go the opposite way and enhance your curls with products for curly hair and forget about looking polished; it's even cooler to look individual. Try Creme D'Huile Oleo-Curl Kerastase. - by James Brown London -
