Are you stuck in a hair rut? The kind that mirrors a real life relationship? You got a new do over 12 months ago, you’re bored, way past the honey moon stage and feel like its time to move on? Never fear… As long as we are talking about your hair, Joh Bailey can help, with tips and tricks to Rescu. your tresses and bring the sexy back.
So, how do we achieve locks that will make the boys blush? “Sexy hair can’t appear to be too laboured over, Joh said. “I think once hair starts to look like its too neat, been too ironed, too anything, it starts to lose its sex appeal.”
Joh Bailey Brings You Three Ways To Sexify Your Hair…
For Fine Hair
Trying to boof out short hair, almost never works,” Joh said. There really is only one option, extensions!
When it comes to extensions there’s plenty of options and Joh suggests sitting down with your stylist and discussing which best suits your hair and your lifestyle. Individual extensions and weaves are most popular but semi-permanent stick ons are making waves in the hair world. They last up to one month and can be washed and blowdried, and are known to cause minimal damage to the hair they are attached too.
For girls with all the time in the world, individual keratin bond extensions are best. Weaves are great also, will require a little less maintenance but need to be combed twice daily from the roots to avoid matting.
For Girls Who Want Something Drastic
If the thought of extensions scare you, going for a super cute pixie chop can be equally as sexy and totally compatible with fine hair. Read Joh’s Pixie crop guide here.

For Long Hair
You’ve already got the length and thickness but what’s a sure fire style to make boys swoon? Looking to Hollywood for inspiration, Joh loves a good “Kardashian do”. “Wavy but not curly, flat in the middle with a centre part, very Kim Kardashian and very Victoria’s Secret… I think that look is really happening right now in long hair at the moment,” Joh Said.
Stressing the importance of the end result looking effortless, Joh advises using a GHD to get the wavy look. Forget curling wands and the wrapping techniques you used to use to get curls, with a GHD it’s as simple as curling ribbon on present, Joh advised.
Tips and Tricks for Perfect GHD Curls
Taking big sections, will ensure the waves are big and bouncy not small and sporadic a la 90s high school formal hair.
Joh’s number one curling rule, “The motion of the wrist when creating GHD curls shouldn’t stop,” he said. Starting about 5cm from the crown Joh advises moving the GHD from root top tip (on an angle) in one motion. Finishing off with a strong hold, hairspray I-C-E HAIR Finisher Shaping Hair Spray by Joico ($19.95) will ensure your hair, stays sexy for longer.
