The new spring weather means abandoning those thick wool hats and letting our hair blow in the breeze. However, even though the weather is mild and the sun doesn't seem very intense, UV rays can still damage our fragile tresses.

For light sun protection, try Sesame Oil. It's perfect for low to moderate sun exposure. Plus, its cheap and easy to find at any grocery store.

Sesame oil has been used for centuries as a natural hair conditioner and sunscreen. It can block up to 30% of the sun's harmful rays and will act as a protective barrier between the unforgiving wind and our fragile strands.

April showers got you down? Nothing is worse that spending an hour or two creating the perfect hairstyle, only to have it ruined by an unexpected rainstorm or dewy spring morning.

Here are a few tips to help you protect your hairstyle as you brave the morning commute:

1. Use a More Emollient Product

Before rolling, twisting or blow-drying your hair, use a thick, emollient product like Jane Carter Nourish and Shine.

Q: What exactly is oil sheen? I've seen my stylist use it at the salon. Should I pick up a can for home use and what brands do you recommend?

A. Oil sheen is essentially an aerosolized combination of mineral oil and/or petroleum, silicone, (some) natural oils and fragrance. The pump or spray action allows the product to disperse a thin layer of light oil across the hair. It is designed to add sheen and is often used as a finishing spray to polish off a style.

Oil sheen, in my opinion, is perfectly fine for home use, when used in moderation. I would limit usage to one or two quick "sprays" daily as many women find that over usage can lead to dry hair. I would always use a water-based moisturizer first and then follow with a light spray of oil sheen.

Now that winter is over and the wool hats are banished to the storage closet, its about time we let down our buns and enjoy hair that blows in the wind!

Yet, one the common complaints I hear from women is that they can't seem to achieve hair that "swangs", or moves effortlessly, without heading to the beauty salon.

Here are a few tips that have helped me achieve that Victoria's Secret swang at home!

1. Clarify

Once a month, shampoo with a clarifying shampoo, followed by detangling shampoo and/or deep conditioner. Clarifying once a month will help you get rid of any build up that can make your hair look dull and lifeless.

Before commercial hair dyes, people used freshly brewed tea to darken their hair and add long-lasting shine. A black tea rinse is a cheap and easy way to update your look in the comfort of your own kitchen!

Instructions:

1. Boil 2 cups of water.

2. In a non-metal bowl, pour boiling water over 2 tablespoons of black tea and let steep for 20-25 minutes. Overnight is best.

3. Strain to remove tea leaves.
