All hair care products don't always work well on all hair types (normal, fine, dry, oily, permed, colored). Chances are what works for your best friend may not work for you. Products really do help style hair, hold a set longer, give lift and protect your hair. It is important to read labels! Try several brands to determine the product that makes your hair shine and feel great!
Did you know that bangs are in style again? To ensure picture-perfect bangs, try this:
-
For large features, have bangs cut wider
-
For delicate features, narrow or wide bangs will work
-
To style, mist bangs with a volumizing hairspray and blow smooth with a paddle brush.
Here’s a quick conditioning trick that you’re going to love! If your spending any quite time out by the pool then let the sun work in your favor. Grab your Therma Del Sol Olive Butter Body Balm, slather your hair with it and relax!! Enjoy a good book, catch up with your magazine reading or better yet, write someone special a letter. This is one of the best deep conditioning treatments. From our luxury Italian Collection this is just one of the many ways to use this body balm.
Here's something to consider, how about looking for ingredients from your kitchen to cleanse, exfoliate and nourish your hair. Elaine D'Farley, Self Magazine's Beauty Director calls it the Shiny-Hair Screwdriver. I was watching one of the episodes of She's Got the Look! on TV Land when I ran to jot the recipe down. Here are those kitchen ingredients: Avacado, Vodka and Oranges. The avacado is filled with vitamins and is nourishing to your hair. The Vodka will strip buildup and the oranges are a cleansing agent. "The key to making your hair shine is to get rid of impurities (via cleansing and exfoliating) and then hydrate to bring in fullness and radiance. With this in mind I decided to have the She's Got the Look candidates whip up SELF’s simple recipe."
"Here’s the recipe" for the Shiny-Hair Screwdriver
Peel of 1 navel orange, chopped
1/2 avocado
1 tablespoon vodka
1 teaspoon avocado oil (found at health food stores)
Boil 1 cup water, add orange peel and steep 30 minutes. Puree peel and water in a blender, then add avocado, vodka and oil and blend. Massage into clean, towel-dried hair, working from roots to tips to fully coat strands. Cover with a shower cap 25 minutes; rinse, then lightly shampoo and condition.
