Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! Oh, what fun it is to have fabulous hair this holiday!
Picture this: You’re at a Christmas party, and as you glide in, heads turn, eyes widen, and whispers of awe fill the room. Why? It’s not your outfit (though that’s drop-dead gorgeous). It’s your luscious, strong, and shiny, show-stopping hair. Don’t let pesky hair breakages rain on your parade! Your festive fairy hair-mother has arrived with a sleigh full of tips and tricks to make sure you’re the belle of the ball. We’re about to dive into the glitz and glamor of Number 4’s world of botanical hair care.
7 Sugar, Spice & Everything Nice; Bid Adieu to Breakage
Ready to prevent hair breakage and let your hair steal the spotlight this December? OK, let’s jingle all the way with these seasonal tips from the styling team at Number 4 professional hair care products.
1. Strength Training!
The winter winds may be chilly, but your hair doesn’t have to suffer. Tis the season to start strength training- for your hair! There’s no better product to help you achieve your personal best than N4 Reconstructing Masque. This deeply replenishing and strengthening treatment smooths and infuses hair with incredible moisture and that prêt-à-porter glow that will help you steal the Christmas limelight. Watch your hair shine brighter than the tree topper!
2. Heat?
Not so hot on heat? You want those perfectly pinned curls for the office party, but remember, too much heat styling can lead to breakage. Opt for heatless hairstyles or protect your locks with a heat protectant spray like N4 Super Comb Prep & Protect. Who knew living life tangle-free would be so easy? It’s the perfect post-shower product.
We say, no heat? No problem! Make a royal entry this Christmas with the Twisted Crown. This elegant, heatless hairstyle is simple, chic, and perfect for any holiday party. Here’s how to create this regal look using your favorite N4 paraben-free hair care products:
Part Your Hair: Start by brushing your hair to remove tangles, then part your hair down the middle. Prep with a generous spritz of Super Comb Prep & Protect leave-in conditioning spray to strengthen and protect party hair.
Start Twisting: Grab a 2-inch section of hair closest to your forehead on one side of your part. Split that section into two and start twisting the pieces around each other, adding more hair as you move towards the back of your head.
Secure Your Twist: Once you reach the back of your head, secure the twist with a bobby pin.
Repeat: Perform the same steps on the other side of your head.
Join the Twists: Once both sides are twisted and pinned, bring them together at the back of your head and secure them with a hair tie or decorative clip for an extra festive touch.
Voilà, your Twisted Crown is ready, Dah-ling! Now you’re all set to rock around the Christmas tree.
3. Trim Trimminidy, Trim Trim Tree!
Talk of trees and trimmings! Regular trims can help prevent split ends and further breakage over the hectic holiday period. Aim for a trim every 6-8 weeks to keep your hair looking its best.
It’s time for a seasonal snip to ensure you go into 2024 with fab-u-lous hair.
4. You Are What You Eat:
And no, we don’t mean a glass of fizz and a canape! To give your hair the best fighting chance, prioritize a diet rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals to give it the extra boost it needs.
Enjoy that spinach quiche at the Christmas buffet, it will help your waistline and your hairline!
5. Gentle is the Way:
Detangling can be a nightmare, especially when your hair is wet and at its most vulnerable. Using the right tool, such as the Number 4 Detangling Comb, is crucial. Our wide-set comb gently undoes knots without pulling on your hair and causing breakage.
The technique you adopt is equally important. Instead of starting at the roots, where the tangles are the tightest, begin at the ends and slowly work your way up. This method reduces breakage, prevents split ends, and maintains the health and vitality of your hair. It’s the gentlest way to keep your tresses smooth and shiny so you can rock every party look this festive season.
Patience and care are crucial to maintaining your hair’s natural strength and integrity. Your focus should be on heat protection. You can’t go wrong with Number 4’s Thermal Styling Spray or Blow Dry Lotion in your seasonal styling kit.
6. Wrap it Up:
Protect your hair with a chic hat or scarf if you’re out and about in the winter chill. It’s a win-win: fashionable and functional! Just make sure to wrap your hair loosely and avoid any friction from rough fabrics. This will help prevent breakage, frizz, and static build-up. Trust us; your hair will thank you!
Remember, Dah-ling, healthy hair is happy hair, and these tips will ensure your locks are the life of every party!
Deck the Halls with Bouncy, Beautiful Hair
Just a few tweaks to your routine, and there you have it! You’re on your way to preventing hair breakage and having the most fabulous hair this holiday season. May all your Chris”tresses” come true.

This product mixed with the Blow Dry Lotion leaves my hair looking so soft and shiny, like I just left the salon. I highly recommend.

This stuff is AMAZING!! Seriously, hands down the best product I’ve used. It leaves my hair so soft, I can’t keep my hands off of it! I have natural curly hair and this keeps my straight style smooth and perfect all day – even with my contestant touching. Don’t hesitate, buy this – it’s worth it!!

This stuff is incredible… I threw all of my other products away after one use. I have thick, naturally curly hair, and this deflated it without making it greasy. My hair is so soft and transformed; I can’t stop touching it! It works great for air drying or blow drying. Paired it with the hydrating shampoo and conditioner, and will never go back.

I ordered the full sized Smoothing Balm after receiving a mini in a beauty box. I have very, very fine hair, styled in a pixie cut. I have a lot of hair, albeit fine. You wouldn’t think from the product details that this balm would work on my hair… but it does! It takes out static and smooths, but doesn’t weigh down my hair. I blow dry upside down, run a mini flat iron through, smooth a little balm on, and hair spray – DONE. It takes all of 5 minutes!

This makes you feel just like you stepped out of a salon. the scent is so fabulous. I was hopeful it would smooth my thick hair but I was not expecting it to make it feel so healthy and like silk. I straigtened my hair and again, I did not expect it to help with my tools but it really cut the drying time down. I can’t believe it! It is that good & smells that good! kind of like a very light high end cologne. I don’t think it would offend many people’s nose. It is hard to find other than here. I received a small bottle in my #birthbox Need the big bottle but a little go’s a long way and I have long hair.

I’m 65 years old and used to have thick, heavy, lovely hair; I could do anything with it. Now, like most older women, my hair is thinner, drier, and more brittle. I still wear it long, so I’ve been looking for a product that will moisturize my hair and make it more elastic, will reduce the tangling at the ends (which leads to split ends), and will restore the smooth shine that I used to have. This is it. I still blow my hair dry for styling, and it left my hair smooth, shiny, and with thicker volume without feeling sticky, stiff, or oily. It almost feels like my 20-year-old hair again. Lovely product.
