Sure, we all would love that extra hour in the morning, where we all can sit in front of our respective vanities follow our beauty rituals and pamper our hair in a relaxed manner, without a care in the world. But like most fantasies, this one too is reserved for our collective imagination.The daily grind, that’s a reality for most of us, doesn’t permit us with enough time to luxuriate. But what if I were to tell you, that I have a few weird tricks up my sleeve that would make your dreams of having a quality mane a reality. Don’t let the usage of the term “weird” deter you. In my experience, the weirder a trick, the more effective it is. So now that I have piqued your curiosity with this endorsement, let me take you to these tips. Here they are:
1. Do This To Swim-Proof Your Hair

There’s no doubt that the best way to beat this summer heat is taking a leisurely dip in the pool, but you wouldn’t want the chlorine in the pool to wreak havoc on your hair, would you? This is what you should do to swim-proof your hair (besides wearing a swim cap): Coat your hair with a layer of leave-in conditioner before you enter the water. It will protect your hair from the hard salts and chlorine present in the water.
2. Out Of Dry Shampoo? Use This Instead!

If you have greasy hair and have run out of dry shampoo, here’s a cool hack for you. Use baby powder instead! Yes, that’s right, just dust off some baby powder into your roots and massage it in. It will absorb all of the excess oil giving your hair a fresh lease of life.
3. If You Want Shiny Locks, Go For A Beer Rinse

This nifty hack comes recommended by Hollywood personality Catherine Zeta-Jones (1). Take a can of beer, open and pour the beer out in a glass. Let it sit for a while so that it goes ‘flat’. Now wash your hair as you normally do, and then instead of using conditioner pour the ‘flat’ beer into your head and massage it in. Leave it on for a minute and then rinse it off with cold water. Follow this process once a week to get best results.
4. Those Flyaways Ruining Your Look? Try This Neat Trick

Don’t you just hate it when those flyaways spoil you intricate hairdo? Or when those strands of tiny baby hair at your hairline refuse to stay put, giving you a very messy look? Try this trick to solve these problems. Take a toothbrush (one which you don’t use currently) and spray some hairspray on to it. Comb those flyaways and baby hair using that brush. The hairspray will hold them in place. Bye-bye messy hair!
5. Too Much Hair Breakage? Put This On Your pillow

Are you tired of waking up to numerous strands of broken hair on your pillow? Swap your cotton pillowcases for satin ones. They will not produce as much friction which will lead to less breakage.
6. No Time To Shampoo, But Want Your hair To Smell Good? Try This Trick

If you have been on road trips or if you had to follow hectic itineraries, you would know that washing your hair isn’t really an option in their tight schedules. And unwashed hair is bound to smell. But worry not, you can keep that pesky smell at bay by spraying your favorite perfume on your comb and running the comb through your hair. You will have great-smelling hair, just like that!
7. Not Happy With Your Hair Color? Try This Thrifty Trick

Too dark or just not the shade you want, getting rid of expensive hair color can be equally expensive. Not if you try this hair trick. Take an all-organic dishwashing detergent and pour some of it in your shampoo. Use this shampoo to wash your hair, and you will find that it has effectively removed the unwanted pigment from your hair.
8. Want To Give Your Hair A Color-Makeover At Home? Try This Trick

If you want to lighten your raven-colored hair without spending a fortune at the salon, try this home remedy. Squeeze out the juice out a few lemons in a bowl and apply it over your hair. Following this, sit out in the sun for about 40 minutes (of course, apply a generous layer of sunscreen before doing this part of the remedy). Do this once a week, for a couple of weeks. You will soon notice that your hair color has lightened considerably.
Totally weird, right? Who would’ve thought that these bizarre tricks would actually work, but the fact is that they do. So, go ahead give them a spin and let us know how they worked out for you. And if you have a few weird hair tricks of your own, share them with us in the comments.
