You can divide long hair into four sections into half head and clip them back with the scrunchie until they are dry; then release, smooth, and comb through your long hair with a regrowth serum.\r\rYou should also invest in professional products for a full head especially if your hair has artificial colour. These cost about $20 to $30 for a good shampoo, conditioner, colour, serum, and styling cream that will leave your hair shiny and protected during blow dry. This type of product is formulated with ingredients that help protect against damage caused by heat from appliances such as flat irons and head foils for any length and is like a regrowth serum.

Instead, use a wide-tooth comb to style it after washing, removing foils and leave the tangles out until it has dried before a blow wave.

It is set to take a photo of any vehicle that passes the stop line 0.3 seconds after the traffic light changes to red. The camera will however not be activated if you cross during a yellow light. \r\rThese cameras also serve as speed cameras. When a vehicle crosses the first line in disregard of the red light, the camera is sensitised and activated and takes two photos. The first one is for the rear of the car and the second image is taken in an estimated one second after taking the first photo. The second one shows the moment the car is in the intersection.\r\rThe picture taken shows several things. It first displays the licence plate for identification. The date and the real-time of the incidence are also shown. It also displays the exact intersection's location. The recommended maximum speed and your speed at the moment and direction of the car are also recorded.\r\rThe images are then evaluated by the SDRO and the fines are administered to the offenders. The offence is charged $603 plus three demerit points. In case the camera is located in a school area and you break the red light law within school hours, the penalty rises to $755 plus four demerit points.

In many cases, there is a signpost that indicates the presence of red light cameras so you shouldn't miss them.\r\rThey are meant to record vehicles that move through intersections in disregard of the red light rule. They are usually in the same zone with the safety lights. So if you see safety lights at the intersection, know that that red light cameras are within range and are monitoring your drive. \r\rIf these cameras detect that you disobeyed the red light, they will take an image of your car. The image will indicate where you committed the offence and the date of the act. They will also record the vehicle's direction, the set maximum speed and the speed of the vehicle.\r\r In case you are found on the wrong, you will be notified with an infringement ticket and a penalty notice number in your mail.
