Hair Serums, Oils and Finishing Sprays

I'm my Hairstylist's worst nightmare folks!

WHY....?

I take great pride in taking care my hair and I'm a Nazi about maintaining it's healthy appearance. But when you have a horse's mane like I do (extremely thick, long blond hair that's semi-wavy & semi-frizzy when towel dried and that takes 1hr blow-dry & 30min to flat iron) it's not always easy to do!

I HATE the stiff, hair-sprayed, greasy look and I would much rather have it feeling clean or looking frizzy than not being able to run my fingers through it!

That said, I've used many different products for before & after I blow dry or flat Iron so I can keep the frizz and fly-aways under control while leaving my hair looking healthy & shiny (WITHOUT the greasy/stiff feeling)! These will work for ALL hair types (fine,thin, course, short, long etc...) Just be smart about how much you use :-P

Listed below are a few serums/oils/finishing sprays I would recommend...

AGADIR ARGAN MOROCCAN OIL HAIR TREATMENT---The newest and BEST PRODUCT ON THE MARKET RIGHT NOW!!! This product is so amazing and I've told many friends and family about this hidden secret and they LOVE me for it. This product is a dry oil that instantly moisturizes, shines, corrects frizzies, conditions and acts as a humidity resistant. It does not make your hair greasy but leaves it extremely soft, silky and shiny. It ALSO makes your hair grow and makes it stronger for anti-breakage purposes. Used best in damp hair before blow drying but you can also use it after you flat-iron as a finishing serum. I prefer to use it when my hair is wet. You do not have to use a lot and it last forever. There are two types of Moroccan oil products out there but remember you want the brown bottle with the gold label and cap NOT the blue cap brand-this has been know to dye your hair! This Agadir Argan Oil is expensive ($40 4oz) but TRUST me it's well worth it for many reasons.


REDKIN VINYL GLAM---One of my favorites for shine/gloss! I use it after flat-ironing and when I am ready to go out the door. I spray a light mist all over for a light non-greasy shiny finished look. You'll love this product because there is nothing better on the market as far as non-greasy shine spray! They also have a generic form of this product under the Loreal brand at CVS/Target/ Walgreen's for less money $$. I prefer the Redkin brand myself but this works great too.

CHI SILK INFUSION--- This product is the better alternative to BioSilk-it feels lighter and less oily. and works great for after flat-ironing. You only need a small amount.

PAUL MITCHELL HEAT SEAL--- I love this product and prefer it to all it's competetors. This is a multi-purpose humidity resistant, heat activating styling spray. It can be used to protect against blow-dryers, irons and tongs and works best with damp hair. I prefer this heat-protector over the CHI Iron Guard (see below) because I believe it's better for your hair if you apply these products to damp rather than dry hair. I also believe that applying heat resistant products directly to your hair right before flat ironing does more damage. It works for me!

CHI IRON GUARD---- I use this product for protecting against the flat-iron only when I have to. I use a light mist all over right before I flat iron. I don't use this on a regular basis but when I feel my hair is under a lot of heat that week/month OR when I am flat ironing after my hair has been in a messy bun or after it's been curled and hair sprayed. Like I said before, I use this scarcely because I believe that applying heat resistant products directly to your hair right before flat ironing does more damage than most are aware of.

Remember, I've listed just a few of my favorite products for serums/oils etc. BUT these are ASIDE from my anti-breakage secrets I plan to share with you later-You'll have to stay tuned to hear about these favorites and tips!

Like I said, I have only listed a few so please feel free to reach out If there are any questions about a product not listed above :-) I can't imagine anyone ( that's not a professional stylist) who has used or experienced as many different hair products as I have. And just because I may have different hair or texture than others AND despite the fact that everyone is looking for something different doesn't really matter..serums are serums, oils are oils. The category is static, right?

But please don't by shy to comment back!!! I'd love the feedback
