10 Tips to Maintain your Crop Hairstyles

Short hair is in season and is all the rave right now. While it looks cute, it can be incredibly difficult to style and maintain. Not to worry, here are 10 tips to maintain your cropped hair styles.

Short hair also needs a lot of care. Do a monthly deep conditioning treatment to have your hair in tiptop shape. It hydrates and adds shine to your strands

4. Use a Dry Shampoo

When you hair is feeling greasy and you do not want to wash it yet, spray on some dry shampoo to refresh your hair.

5. Accessorize

Styling short hair can be a little bit of an hassle. As such, a good way to have your short tresses looking super cute is by adding hair accessories to it. Use a headband or tiny hair clips to your hair.

6. Get regular trims

Trimming your hair regularly puts it in good shape. Touch up your style every 4-6 weeks.

7. Use light oils

Heavy oils like shea butter can tend to weigh down short hair. Use light oils which can be easier to run through your hair on it.

8. Wash your hair regularly

Products buildup look less than impressive on short hair. It can have your hair looking like a hot mess. Wash your hair with a shampoo and conditioner regularly.

9. Keep it moisturized

Hydration is your best friend when you have a short hair. Use a moisturizing mist on your hair regularly.

10. Reduce your use of heat styling tools
