Frizz-Ease Straight Answer Straightening Spray

This product somewhat helps wavy hair stay straight, but doesn’t leave it soft or shiny. On the contrary, it leaves a stiff residue like firm-hold hairspray.

Beyonce On The Cover of Marie Claire UK October 2008 Edition

Beyonce looks fabulous as usual on the cover of Marie Claire UK October 2008 Edition. Makes me want to buy a copy. I love Beyonce’s long layered hair parted in the middle, smokey eyes and nude lips. And, what do you think about Beyonce’s sexy open button shirt? Is it slinky or just too risky?

And here is another Beyonce photo in Marie Claire. Enjoy!

How To get Your Hair Clean and Silky Smooth With Avon

I recently had the chance to try out few products from the Avon Advance Techniques salon professional hair care collection and I would like to share with you my favorites.

I’m a big fanatic about getting my hair clean, not weighted down, and very soft and silky. And this how I got my hair clean and silky smooth using products from the Avon Advance Techniques collection.

First I clarified my hair with Avon Advance Techniques Purifying Treatment Shampoo from all the build up on my hair from the week, all the swimming, serums and hair sprays.

This shampoo by Avon does just what it promises, cleanse my hair and removes all buildup so my hair can finally breath. It made styling easier for me and added an amazing movement to it. It got rid of that sticky feeling hair, when you hair so weighted down you can’t even comb your hair nicely. I use my regular shampoo daily and incorporate Avon’s clarifying treatment into my hair care regimen once a week or whenever I feel my hair feels weighted down.  

Avon Advance Techniques Purifying Treatment Shampoo is a once a week treatment shampoo designed to remove residue and product build up releasing hair’s natural shine and movement. Here is a styling tip from Jaqui Monteiro, Avon’s Global Stylist Advisor: “If you have color treated hair it’s good to use Purifying Treatment Shampoo after swimming to quickly remove any chlorine, chemicals and/or salt that could cause dulling build-up.”

How To Get Fergie’s Bohemian Hair Style With Redken

Fergie rocked a bohemian style and dress at the 2008 Teen Choice Awards with a bohemian hair style to go with. Fergie’s bohemian hair style was created by Patricia Morales, Redken session stylist and hair stylist to Fergie.

It was all about having fun, clowning around, and winning some surf boards! The Teen Choice Awards, televised on August 4, was a fun-filled event with a lot of laughs and not to mention screaming fans. But like any award show, a big focus of the night was the styles seen on the red carpet. Lots of color, casual chic looks and a bevy of hairstyles were donned for the show. Always a crowd-pleaser, Fergie, graced the red-carpet with a bohemian-inspired look fitting for the award show.

“Since her dress was very bohemian, we wanted her hair to be a little edgier but still complement her look” says, Patricia Morales, Redken session stylist and hair stylist to Fergie. “I showed her a series of braids I have been working on and she chose the fish tail braids. I think she rocked it!”

This is how to create Fergie’s bohemian hair style at the 2008 Teen Choice Awards: Morales applied Redken full Frame 07 Protective Volumizing Mousse (SRP$15.95) and Redken Extreme Anti-Snap (SRP$14.95), to the hair when damp. This provided lots of body and volume but also smoothness and shine, which allowed an easier time to create the fish tail.

To get her hair camera-ready, Lauren “Lo” Bosworth from MTV’s hit show The Hills stopped by the John Frieda See for Yourself Salon, where the top stylists behind editorial shoots and celebrity hairstyles are transforming real women’s hair before their eyes.

Lo Bosworth Gets a Boost.

Harry Josh’s Volumizing Tips:

Tip 1 – Volume Starts at the Roots: “Products make all the difference when building volume, so use a formula that creates lift when building volume at the roots.” Harry informed Lo. “I start by prepping hair with John Frieda Luxurious Volume Full Splendor Shampoo and Conditioner, then spray the roots with John Frieda Luxurious Volume Lavish Lift Root Booster before blow drying.”
