Redken For Men high rise hard wax
Redken For Men high rise hard wax is a classic styling wax that gives maximum control to create long-lasting, dangerously high styles that defies gravity with a natural, humidity resistant finish. Suitable for all hair types.
I’ve used Redken For Men high rise hard wax on my hubby today, and it worked wonders on his very thick hair. It made his hair very moldable and added great definition and shine. Hair remained soft to touch. And the minty smell is amazing! Definitely a keeper for my hubby, he thinks he looks funky now:)
How to apply: Apply a small amount into palms and emulsify well by rubbing palms together. Drag fingers and palms through dry towel-dried hair and style as desired.
Trend Watch: At the Spring 2010 Men’s Fashion Week, stand up texture and added height were seen at shows like Bottega Veneta and Prada.
Rihanna Got New Blonde Highlights
Celebrity hair watch: Rihanna Got New Blonde Highlights.
Rihanna seems to not be afraid to try out trends straight off the runways. Rihanna’s very short haircut now gets blonde highlights! It reminds me of the 80’s punk look (George Michael “Wake Me Up Before You GO GO”?). I’ve seen the 80’s inspired look and hairstyles making a comeback backstage at Betsey Johnson Spring 2010, during New York Fashion Week. With 80’s classic music hits playing in the background, I must add. Loved it!!
Rihanna is also sporting a fall makeup trend: dark purple lips.
To get Rihanna’s dark purple inspired lips try MAC Mattene Lipstick in Night Violet. Shade description: Deep purple grape (Matte).
To get Rihanna’s weightless volume and ‘guts’ to hair try: Aerate 08 bodifying cream-mousse by Redken. This new mousse was a huge hit backstage during New York Fashion Week Spring 2010 at shows like: Badgley Mischka and Betsey Johnson. I’ve been using this mousse myself for the past week, and it works amazing to tame my very wavy frizz-prone hair, air dried or blow dried. According to Redken’s lead hairstylist backstage Peter Gray: many people afraid of a mousse as a styling product because all they think is the 80’s and that big hair. But in his opinion, mousse was the best thing invented for hair. He also said that most people afraid of styling products which shouldn’t be the case. Styling products are here to help you get the hairstyle you want. Also it is very important to apply styling products in the right way: use the right brush to apply or the right quantity.
BTW: Do you love Rihanna’s new blonde highlights?

Marta Walsh Interviews With Bailey at Makeover Momma
Last week during New York Fashion Week I met fabulous Bailey Vincent Clark editor of www.makeovermomma.com at the Jill Stuart Spring 2010 fashion show. While we were waiting for the show to start, Baily ignored all the celebrities and “the beautiful people” attending the show just to interview me. Incredible! Bailey wanted to know all about my beauty secrets as a mom of 2 boys: Jake (3) and Kieran (1).

Redken’s Fall/Winter 2009 Haircolor Forecast & Redken’s New Color Gels Ash Blue
As temperatures begin to cool down outside, so will haircolor this fall/winter season with more sophisticated cooler brunettes and blondes. Tracey Cunningham, Redken Creative Consultant for Color, and David Stanko, Haircolor Consultant for Redken, have the latest in fall haircolor trends, professional haircolor products to achieve these trends, and consumer tips to communicate with their colorist and to adjust to the “coolest” looks of the season.
“Small adjustments can help consumers update their look from season to season,” explains Cunningham. “When summer comes to a close, I plan to cool my clients’ shades down this fall/winter season with Redken’s new Color Gels Ash Blue creating sophisticated, cool shades. A color is said to have “cool tones” if it tends toward blue or violet, such as platinum blondes, ash browns, and plum reds.”
Trend #1: Brunettes: “Brunettes will go to a whole new level this fall/winter with an overall cooler base. Think Fergie’s shade; her lighter highlights really show through her dark, chestnut base making her haircolor look so flawless and effortless.” – Tracey Cunningham
Trend #2: Blondes: “Blondes will be blonde this fall – think Drew Barrymore’s cool, nearly platinum blonde shade for this inspiration. Client’s can often be concerned with the cost to achieve and keep the perfect shade of blonde, but I find that women cut back in other areas rather than haircolor as it’s one of a consumers’ most prominent and most seen everyday accessory!” – Tracey Cunningham
Beauty Tips for Stretching Summer
Summer is a beautiful time of the year: it’s nice and hot outside, we swim in the ocean or the pool, we get great skin and beachy waves thanks to sea water, get sun-kissed, and eat delicious and succulent fruits. Sometimes summer is SO good we don’t want it to go away.
Here are some beauty tip to stretch your summer just a little longer into fall…
Take a nice bath with Philosophy Raspberry Sorbet shower gel & Bubble bath to remind you of succulent summer fruits and ice cream. $16 at www.sephora.com
A nice sea salt body scrub such as Origins Incredible Spreadable Scrub Sea Salt Body Smoother will help satisfy your craving for sea water and ocean, $26. Available at www.beauty.com
You’ve spent hours on the beach or by the pool. You squeezed fresh lemon on your hair in your garden. Or you’ve spent some decent cash on your blond highlights. Whichever way you’ve achieved beautiful blonde highlights, you can stretch their life with Redken Blonde Glam Shampoo & Conditioner, and Blonde Glam Color Enhancer Rich Vanilla or Perfect Platinum.
