the best beauty products...loving life!!



Price: $17.00 at BumbleAndBumble.com
Not too long ago, I came across Bumble and Bumble Seaweed Shampoo and found that it really is as lovely as it has been described. The sales description of this product is definitely true and this product has lived up to its expectations. This is a mild, moisturizing daily shampoo that contains marine extracts. It is used in order to feed those roots and add shine to the hair. It also keeps the scalp feeling nice and happy. I recommend this shampoo for anyone, except for those that have very dry or coarsehair. It is perfect for those frequent bathers and is color compatible. You can use this shampoo daily and I recommend you following it with the Seaweed Conditioner. Use it in wet hair, lather it in palms and massage it through. There is no need to repeat the process.

First on my list of beautiful hair products, I have bumble and bumble Surf Spray. I tell you, they call it Surf Spray for a reason. You can create those salty, sexy windswept styles and it does not matter where you are. This is great for those individuals that havewavy hair. It is also great for those surfers that have those winter time blues. If you have fine hair, then you will find that it adds a great deal of body. For silver hair, it will add a nice texture. You can use this anytime you want. You can use if after Prep or TonicLotion. You can also use it during styling. All you have to do is work it through your damp or dry hair. You can let it dry naturally or blow-dry it. It is also great for dry hair detailing and giving a lift to those roots. I have found that the less you touch it, the longer it will keep its hold.

the best shine hair>>>Passion for Beauty....

ull and dreary hair takes away half the beauty of the face. Healthy, glossy, manageable hair that reflects light and falls around the face beautifully, is the dream of every woman that is not so difficult to attain after all. Here are a few tips to make your hair shine:
  • Bring instant shine to your hair by lightly beating two eggs in milk and massaging them in your hair thoroughly. Rinse after five minutes.
  • A little vodka in your shampoo, if used occasionally, can make your thick hair shine instantly.
  • Yet another way to make your hair shine for blondes is to add two tablespoons of lemon juice in your rinse water after shampooing, while brunettes and redheads can add apple cider vinegar to their rinse water.
  • Everybody can get a vibrant hair color by wisely using his or her garden products! Brunettes can use handful of fresh rosemary sprigs, blondes can use dried chamomile, orange-tone redheads can use chopped up carrot while berry-tone redheads can use chopped up beet. Boil one quart of water. Tie the suitable ingredient according to your hair color in a piece of doubled cheesecloth and toss it into the boiling water. Remove them from heat and let the water soak the color for about 10 minutes. Then, remove the cheesecloth bag. Shampoo and rinse your hair thoroughly. Pour the color enhancer you have prepared over your hair, while it is warm. Be sure it is not hot. Rinse it finally with a quart of cold water. Do this once a month for that lustrous hair posed by models.
  • Honey is good for skin and hair. Take 4 cups of warm water and stir 1 teaspoon of honey in it. Pour it into your hair after shampooing and let the hair dry as normal. You don't need to rinse it.
  • Over-processed hair lose their shine too so be careful nor to overuse all those chemical hair products in the market. Silicone products add shine to hair momentarily but are difficult to wash out causing a buildup that make your hair dull. Vinegar rinse should be used sparingly too or it may dry out your hair.
  • Cold water rinsing makes your hair look shinier as it closes and smoothens the hair cuticle. To further enhance the shine, you can use a finishing crème during and after blow-drying your hair.
  • Adding shine to gray hair and keeping them from getting that yellow tint can be difficult. However a professional gloss treatment at the salon seals the cuticle and makes the hair look shinier than ever. It lasts for five weeks.
  • Heat activated shampoos and weekly deep conditioning for your hair keep them glossy.

How to achieve and maintain a healthy head of beautiful hair.

Three main things are needed for a good-looking head of hair - haute hair - good health, the right attention to cleanliness, and caution when using cosmetic treatments.

1. Adequate Diet

Hair growth depends on an adequate diet. A widespread diet problem which causes loss of hair is iron deficiency Anaemia. The cause is too little iron in blood, brought on by a diet containing too little meat, eggs, cereals or peas and beans. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also needed to provide vitamin C, which enables the body to absorb iron.

2. Cutting the hair

Although cutting the hair is not essential to its well-being, it is easier to keep the scalp clean if the hair is kept reasonably short. Regular cutting does not make the hair grow strong or faster.

3. How hair can be damaged

Although scalp hair is hardy, and can withstand a lot of abuse, it can be damaged by too much or inexpertly applied perming, dyeing - Blonde to Brunette, bleaching and massage. The amount of beautying the hair can take varies from person to person. Occasionally the scalp is allergic to the dye and becomes inflamed and swollen. To prevent this occuring, the dye should be tested by applying it to a small area on the arm. If a patch of inflammation has developed, the dye must not be used on the hair.

Most people who bleach their hair do so with hydrogen peroxide. If the peroxide is repeatedly applied, it may make the hair brittle. Hair SOS If this happens the hair may turn rough, develop split ends, or become thinned or shortened.

More hair Volumen..more and more and more!!

Cosmo's covers are famous for featuring women with voluminous, bombshell hair. Here, Oscar Blandi, who's styled many Cosmo covers, explains how to get our signature strand effect.

STEP 1:Towel dry your hair then mist a leave-in conditioner on your ends followed by a volumizer all over. Flip your head over and start blow-drying your roots while pulling them away from your scalp with your fingers, then dry the rest of your hair until it's slightly damp.

STEP 2: Bring your hair upright and wrap 1-inch sections in Velcro rollers. Once all your hair is set, blow-dry with a diffuser for 10 minutes on the hot setting, then 10 minutes on cool. Alternative options: Use large hot rollers or a curling iron but first make sure hair is 100 percent dry.

STEP 3: Remove the rollers, then mix a drop each of shine serum and light gel (the perfect combo for hold and shine) between your fingers, then run hands throughout your hair.

STEP 4: For an extra body boost, gently tease your roots around the crown of your head, Finish by finger-tousling your hair into a cascade of loose come-hither curls, and give your locks a light spritz with hair spray.

STEP 5: Major mane booster: chopsticks have a hidden use: They can give your hair loads of volume. Right after blow-drying, while your hair is still warm, twist it into a bun and slip the sticks through, says NYC salon owner Ted Gibson. Remove the sticks when your tresses have cooled and

more tips .. loving life!!

Ok blondes, we all know you love to soak up that sun but so does your hair. Natural sun and heat damages your hair vaporizing all the moisture needed for your hair to look healthy and shiny. Texture doesn�t really matter nor does the shade of blonde, as they all are more prone to damage in the sun. Frizz is common in the summer and with good conditioner and frizz control you can look like any celebrity.

split ends #2

Get Rid Of Split Ends
  • An effective remedy for split ends is trimming. Trim your hair regularly, say, about two to three centimeters from the tip. This can prevent the occurrence of split ends. To do this at home, take a small section of your hair and then gently twist it in a downward motion. The split ends will stick out by doing this. Locate the split ends, sticking out of the twisted hair, and trim them off, using a sharp pair of scissors.
  • To keep your hair healthy and prevent the occurrence of split ends, you should wash your hair regularly and condition it well.
  • Always wash your hair from the root to the tip, in case of very dry and brittle hair. Since the tips of the hair strands are deprived of the protective layer of cuticle, doing this will ensure that, your hair doesn't split anymore.
  • While conditioning your hair, apply the conditioner in your hair, from the root to tip, and cover your head with a shower cap, with all your hair inside it. Now, place a towel, dampened with lukewarm water, on the top of the cap. Leave it there for about 10 minutes. Remove the cap and rinse your hair thoroughly, with cold water. The treatment is a surefire way to get rid of split ends. This will help you to get rid of the split ends, if you do it once a week on a regular basis.
  • In case your hair is extremely dry, apply a shampoo that contains moisturizing cream in it. This will moisten your dry hair as well as prevent split ends.
  • Give regular lukewarm oil massages to your hair, to prevent split ends. While massaging, make sure that you apply the oil from the root to tip of your hair. You may choose coconut oil, almond oil or olive oil for the purpose.
  • Vigorous brushing or combing of hair can cause split ends. This is because harsh treatment of the hair may remove the protective cuticle layer from the strands. Hence, use a wide-toothed comb, to detangle your hair. Always brush/comb your hair gently.
  • Always brush your hair when it is dry. Brushing wet hair will not only lead to hair loss, but also remove the cuticle from the strands. Using a soft-bristled brush, comb you hair down from the crown to the tip of your strands, in a gently manner.

hello, hello, hello!! hair split ends...!!!

Trichoptlosis or split ends is a problem commonly faced by people with dry or very brittle hair. Split ends occur, when the protective layer of cuticle is removed from the tip of the strands. As a result, the hair splits into two or three strands, each two to three centimeters long, at its tips. Although cutting the split ends is the best way to get rid of split ends, the problem would reoccur after the strand grows once again. Therefore, opting for effective remedies for split ends is suggested. Learn how to get rid of split ends, with the tips given in the following lines.

great tips for relaxing hair... loving life Passion for beauty coming soon...

  • Read!please, please, please, read all the instructions that come with the relaxer kit you purchased.

  • Get Greased Up! – make sure that scalp is protected by greasing it first ( I like Bergamont or Blue Magic). This will help protect it through the harsh relaxing process. It will also give you practice parting your hair and finding your scalp even when you can’t see it.

  • Four! – part your hair in fours and apply the relaxing cream section by section. I also suggest smoothing once you have applied relaxer in that section, just in case you don’t have time to go back and smooth your hair out later.

  • Rinse! Rinse! Rinse! – when its time to get that relaxer out, rinse really, really well! I usually rinse for about 4 to 5 minutes. The more I get out initially, the less shampooing I have to do later.

  • Check your hands! – while shampooing, (especially if you’re using a color indicating neutralizing shampoo) I check out the suds on my hands to see if they are still white. If it’s not, rinse, lather, and try again!

  • Relax with a friend! – If you are not that confident to go at this alone, recruit a friend or a family member to be your extra set of eyes and/or hands if need be!
