DHAKA: This week’s beauty tip is on ‘Subtle Red Hair’. Take your makeup box and try…

Subtle Red Hair

We know the dilemma all too well – you want to add some drama to your trademark hairstyle, but don`t have time for a salon appointment.

The answer? A faint tint like the red shade Aishwarya Rai wore.

It’s an easy way to try out a new look with minimal effort, and even better, the effect is easy to create at home.

If your strands are dark like the star’s, try out a red gloss, or a colour-depositing conditioner.

Not only will you get an instant change, but both products restore the shine that may have been lost through heat styling, and provide a needed boost in hydration.

If you have lighter hair, opt instead for an at-home gloss as colour-depositing conditioners tend to stain fair tones, and veer no more than two shades lighter or darker than your natural hue – a professional stylist will be better-equipped if you want a more dramatic switch, reports InStyle.
