Frederic Fekkai Helps Us Gear Up For Summer
Protecting our skin from UVA/UVB rays goes without saying, but more often than not most of us forget to protect our hair from the damaging effects of sun, saltwater, and chlorine. Don’t fall victim and let your mane turn into a frizzy mop! Fekkai just launched their Summer Hair Collection and it’s tailor-made to fight [...]
Josie Maran Bohemian Waves Argan Hair Mist: A Shore Thing
There is good beach hair – naturally tousled, soft and flowing, very Brigitte Bardot in the sand. And then there is bad beach hair – ultra-gritty, over-salted worse than a bag of Lay’s, matted and tangled to the point of dreads (when that’s not the look you’re going for). I’ve tried more than my fair [...]
Music Festival-Inspired Beauty: Crazy for Coachella
The biggest music festival of the year is currently in full swing (last weekend marked the first half of the shows), so in honor of all the fun and festivities, I’ve narrowed down my picks for making it through a warm, wild weekend. Even if you’re not lounging and shimmying in the grass over in [...]
Grunge-Inspired Beauty: About a Girl
In honor of the moody days (well, at least that’s the look we were going for) of my early-nineties youth, I’m paying homage to grunge-inspired beauty. While the spirit of the era was to be anti-pretty or au natural, babes like Kate Moss, Emma Balfour (a model few remember these days), Claire Danes (aka Angela [...]
Bumble and Bumble Thickening Hairspray: In the Thick of It
I just got introduced to the best-kept secret amongst hair stylists. Well, it’s no secret that Bumble and Bumble is a brand beloved by professionals and pedestrians alike (their Surf Spray is a snob favorite), but who would have thought something simply known as a “thickening spray” could be revolutionary? The renowned hair stylist Andrea [...]
Stephen Knoll Hydro Repair Mist Styling Lotion
The day after NYFW I went to Stephen Knoll for a color treatment and not only did I leave with my roots back to their proper blonde state (see Joey – the man is amazing), but I left with just about the best smelling hair ever – I mean wow do their products smell amazing! [...]
PRO Beauty Tools Twilight Sparkle Ionic Steam Hairsetter: The Search Continues
The grass is always greener, we always want what we don’t have, and so on…These expressions could not be any truer than when it comes to me with my stick-straight hair. All my curly-haired girlfriends tell me how lucky I am, blah, blah, blah, that I have the option to curl my hair if I [...]
Steal the Look: Victoria Beckham Fall 2012 Show
The form-hugging looks at Victoria Beckham’s breakthrough Fall 2012 show were so sleek – a fabulous play on military structure and body-conscious dressing – it was almost easy to forget how equally sleek the hair was, set off by bright-red lips. Almost! We might have to wait for next year to get our hands on [...]
Macadamia Healing Oil Spray: I’m Nuts For It
It’s the battle of the hair oils: Tina is loving her Moroccanoil, but my oil of choice comes from the macadamia nut. While the nuts themselves are high in fat, macadamia oil is the new “healthy” oil – for eating, that is. It has less saturated fat than olive oil, but it is much harder [...]
Moroccanoil Oil Treatment: Miracle Serum
I have as many different kinds of hair oils as I do body lotions…take from that what you will! To avoid build-up, I try to use a different brand every day. And since the weather has been so dry and windy lately, my beautiful permed and colored hair is slowly turning into a wiry, dry [...]
