"BANG"ED OUT



Been wanting some change with the hairdo so made my way to Aveda Salon. Love this place because all products are organic therefore less damaging. I've slowly been going more and more red with the hair color. Love it for now. Been wanting a perm because I go through a major process to get my hair big and curly, which is recently how I've been setting it. Of course, I had to do the exact opposite of what I wanted and kept it subtle and made dues with a trim, side swept bangs, and kept it straight(Been a looonng time) for a more warm look. Excuse the up close and personal photo(last one) Just wanted to show a better look of the hair color:)

Tis The Season For More Sharing

products


$30 - amazon.com




I was debating on going out Friday night, but instead I decided to have Pho with my pops because we don't get too much one-on-one time. Then I decided to have a lovely slumber party at my parental units house with none other than myself and my Macbook..which predictably led to fashion research to the wee hours of Sat. I ended up getting stuck on fancying some new products I must have for the new year. Important to note that all of these products are highly recommended by another stylist to the stars, Rachel Zoe.

I've been a little freakish on approaching that age where I have to worry about wrinkles, so I've been doing massive research on eye creams and anti wrinkle creams. Call me silly, but I am all about trying to prevent it from getting worst. It's important to try to keep the face looking radiant with a healthy glow through the cold season, which means focusing on moisturizing and hydrating products. These oils and hydrating products will hopefully do the trick, so I'm super excited to purchase them and will give an update on how successful they are**Crossing fingers** And of course I had to look for products to keep that shiny, voluminous hair up to par. I've heard nothing but great things about Moroccan Oil so I can't wait to give it a whirl.

Hair Therapy


So...I'm that girl you'll find at the hair salon asking the hairdresser a ton of questions, because I want to be able to achieve that same shiny,bouncy,& voluminous hair you get leaving that place at home. But, I always find hairdressers reluctant to reveal all their secrets..and I get it...it makes you come back & that means more business for them. Luckily, I have a friend who is currently studying cosmetology at Paul Mitchell School and has always been into hair care. She was sweet enough to do a house call coloring job for my cousin and I..and thankfully she gave me the scoop of her fave products. Since this is the time of giving..I thought...Why not share the wealth :)

1. Joico - Her favorite shampoo is the K-Pac Reconstructor. I normally use sulfate free shampoos..this is NOT, but I am still a fan. Bought the professional size because it was on sale at Cosmo Prof.
2. S Factor- Her second favorite shampoo and conditioner. I recommend alternating products, because over time..like all products..the hair gets use to it & becomes less effective. This is also NOT sulfate free, but did not weigh my hair down and made it look fuller. I have not yet tried the S Factor Serious Conditioner but its a hair glaze that hydrates and adds shine. It's an intensive hair remedy that should be used weekly and she swears by it.
3.Paul Mitchell- Never really used Paul Mitchell products but these are def winners in my book. For all my friends out there who want that beautiful shiny hair after it's been processed time and time again...well this is the solution to all your problems -PM Shine mixed with PM Shine Processing Liquid-I just dyed my hair red and threw the PM Shine in Ruby Slippers(Comes in multiple shades) and wow!!! It def made my hair more vibrant! A must have for me now!! Super Strong Liquid Treatment- Another must have!! Spray on after shower and it helps to detangle. Super Strong Treatment-I have not yet used this product, but it should be used once a week. It's filled with protein to help restore damaged hair. Ink Works- I have not yet used this product either, but my friend who recommended it adds it to her red hair, and it acts as an instant hair dye boost. It is made of pure vegetable protein and deposits the color back into hair. Can't wait to throw it in my hair once my color starts to fade. Gotta love that natural boost!
