Forever Blonde

Ok so today we are talking about a Shampoo.

This week at work I had to chance to do some highlights. Partial and all over highlights. Some for just the fun and others to start going completely blonde. Now if any stylist knows anything, its that unless you have virgin hair is the only time your able to know where the color will be. And with artificial colored hair that’s a shot in the dark really. SO then of course your going to want to do test in the back of the head to see what color or colors still might be in the hair shaft. But that’s all stuff that I don’t want to get into.

If anyone knows anything it is that once you get to the color you may want there is still a lot of possible yellow in the hair, and clients are all I don’t want orange or yellow in my hair. The best way to remove the color yellow is that on the opposite side of that color wheel is that of purple. So if there is yellow just add purple. SO a purple shampoo will start to remove the yellow out of the hair.

Ok so this shampoo I’m talking about is the Forever blonde®, its sulfate-free, and keractive repair. So this shampoo gently cleanses and keeps the blonde hair light, bright and healthy, while giving you the benefits of the KerActive protein and safflower oleosomes. This protein helps repair damage and reseals the cuticle.

The protein blend “hugs up on that cuticle” to help repair, the safflower oleosomes deliver and intense dose of moisture and then of course seals the hair cuticle, its rich sulfate-free surfactants help condition strands.

The Forever Blonde® shampoo comes in 2.5 oz. 8.5 oz. and the forever 33.8(L) with the shampoo you will see an instant transformation in the hair the moment you wash it out from when you had put it in. You’re going to love it, may it be a stylist or consumer. This will keep blonde on it’s A Game.

What is your control type?

Well what would your answer be? What kind of control do you like? Are you a medium, low, high, or ultra mega hold kind of person? 

With Control Addict 28 by Redken® it really doesn’t matter what control type you are. With this amazing high control hairspray your not only get that great control but you are getting the 24-hour control that a lot of hairsprays out there fall short to offer as a product.

With Control (which I use) I am able to shoot that product right where I want it and know that it is going to keep that hold, and the best thing is that ultimate brushability. Spray and if you don’t like just brush down and restyle. Of course there is no visible flaking and no visible residue. I’m able to throw my Hawk up in the hair really in seconds with this Control and of course you know I need the best hold to keep it up. And I say it only takes seconds due to that amazing fast drying formula that Redken® has in their hairsprays.

Its firm and yet flexible touch with a flawless long lasting finish. Spray on the styled hair 8 to 12” away from that scalp and let that hairspray fly to fix styles flawlessly, and with that stronger control: your able to layer and it won’t ever feel hard or tacky. Spray and Separate the hair for defined texture in the style. Just spray and go!!

With this amazing new product by Redken® you won’t be displeased. But you will go tell all your clients and stylist friends that they themselves need to try this product for themselves. I’m telling you I love it. I use it everyday on any guest that likes a little hairspray (a little goes a long way). SO with that I’m so giving the Control Addict 28 by Redken® a 5 out of 5 stars for hold, shine, brushability, restyling, it’s a great product that needs to get out there and people need to know about it. So spread the word.

Beach Spray and Diamond Oil

Ok so today I washed my hair all nice and clean, gunk free! Think it would feel great right? I have been doing some treatments to my hair, for you that don’t know I color and lighten my hair about as often as one would change their drawers. But anyways washed and still feeling like hay in a way (see what I did there) lol.

So I get out and I’m thinking well I’ll have to put my product in tomorrow when I get to Studio 28 Salon (Alexandria, LA) tomorrow for work right! Well me spacing as I do some times, remembers that I have all this trial product sitting in a bag I have placed them to do my reviews on. Well low and behold I have wanted to try out the Beach Spray HealthySexyHair® and I was looking for a shine so of course I had to try out the soon to be released next month Redken® Diamond Oil.

So this beings the review!! Enjoy and of course please let me know what you think and or by voting on the left hand side.

This Diamond oil, which drops May 2013: is shatterproof shine that is a leave-in hair concentrated treatment. It will strengthen and reinforces for smoother, shinier hair while protecting it from breakage. The hair oil isn’t just for “white people” or “Asian” hair etc., the great thing is that it is for all types, and being that it is silicone-free and has all natural oils that will be helping the hair fibers nourish and reinforce those strands. With the Diamond oil its seals, coast and smoothens that nasty cuticle to boost the shine of the hair and protect from friction that can come from brushing styling, etc. This is a “Hybrid Oil” 99% all natural oils, including olive, jojoba, coconut and the sunflower seed oils. I’m telling you this product is going to be going like hot cakes on Sunday with how amazing my hair is shining right now. No Mohawk for a few days as this hair is feeling the moisture and the softness of a puffy cloud in “haven”.

With the matter of not being able to Mohawk the hair for a few days that means we need texture right? Well that’s why I jump on the Healthysexyhair® Beach Spray that is going to deliver texture to the hair, making it look like I just have been laying next to the ocean watching people play volleyball or something. The beach spray helps nourish, protect and heal hair damage with the powers of the Argan oil. So far I have great texture and it even gives a little added volume at the roots without having to go and rewet the hair.  The only down fall for me with this product is that you smell like tanning lotion, which for some it might be totally ok. But for this guy that’s a no.

Hope you all have enjoyed the review, of course if you have any other questions please ask by leaving a comment at the bottom, and again don’t forget to rate the site, with the voting on the left hand side of the blog. Let me know if what I’m doing is enough or if anyone is even reading this.

What A Tease

So there are countless women out there that want that huge big hair. Just because we aren’t in the 70’s don’t mean that the bigger the hair the closer to god saying isn’t still in effect in the 21’st century right? That’s what I said. Bigger the hair the better in my eyes. Well with Bigsexyhair® “What A Tease” that’s what you will be getting. This product is just plan amazing. Yeah you have your powder play from all the product lines and yes even BigSexyHair® has one, but What A Tease is way better. If you looking for that volume you just seem not to be getting then spray some in and watch the transformation happen.

With What A Tease all you do is part the section where you are looking to give that volume. Spray a little bit and after drying your going to separate the hair kind of like you would a banana, giving that teased look. You’re going to do this on nice dry hair. This product is not used for wet hair. When its dry just lightly work throughout the rest of your hair for added texture, which is always a good thing again in my books.

This little bottle of amazing volume is going to come at you in a 4.4oz (150ml) bottle. Since it comes from the Sexy Line it has a Hold of 8, shine of 6, and a Pliability of 3. Now with Sexy Hair that’s their reviews on as you can tell the hold, shine and pliability and all their products receive some kind of rating.

So just remember if there is a tease then get What A Tease aka “Backcomb in a Bottle”. Your going to love this product I promise you. Just a little goes a long ways and you will never go looking for another teasing spray or you’ll leave your hairspray at the armoire, and will only be using this product. For my Personal review I’m giving the BigSexyHair® a 4 ½ star rating. So when you get a chance head out and grab you a bottle and give it a try.

Volume Sunday

The date is the 14^th of April and we are in 2013, and todays review is of the amazing Pure Volume Shampoo/Condition by none other than Pureology® (serious color care).

With the Pure Volume brand your looking at zero sulfate, which is what all the professional brand names are working towards doing themselves. This brand uses all natural plant extracts such as ylang ylang, and sandalwood, with some aromatherapy blend thrown in the mix as with like amber, and mandarin.

SO I bet your thinking well what are the great benefits that come from this so-called amazing product. Well if it places the first half of my Mohawk up with no product or tease, I’m going to say it is a great volume shampoo/conditioner. But some benefits are it calms and soothes a possible irritated scalp, for those color lovers it does not strip the color from the hair shaft, it’s a super gentle cleanser. And the best thing is that it smells amazing.

The use of this product as it is a professional grade it is super concentrated so remembering that a little does go a long long way. Drop a Quarter-size amount of shampoo in the palm of the hand, and since it has a rich lather your just going to see super suds on your head, rinse and repeat with hot water if that is necessary. Same with the Conditioner just get a Quarter-size and start at the ends of the hair working your way to the scalp. Once you have finished applying the Conditioner, make sure that you use the cold water on this, and rinse it out. (I know it sucks with cold water but I believe it really helps the hair).

So after trying this product out I have to say that I’m so giving it a 4 out of 5 stars.
