Re: The BEST ever hair products you've used

recent purchase is oscar blandi dry shampoo. love it! i put it on my brush/comb and brush just my crown area and bangs. it really picks up the oil and gives volume.
i also like kerastase masquintense. this saved my over-processed hair long time ago.
i have thick straight hair.

Oscar Blandi all the way, his stuff leaves my hair shiny and soft. I have very thick, wavy hair.

Re: The BEST ever hair products you've used

I have very fine, straight hair. Normal, or can get slightly oily at the roots depending on weather.

Matrix Amplify Color XL shampoo -- one of the best volumizing shampoos I've tried.

Bumble & Bumble Tonic Lotion -- this doesn't do too much by itself, but it's a HG product for me before I add any other hair product. It prevents all the other stuff from weighing my hair down (or spritz a little if you put too much goop on by accident). I have a little spritz bottle of this in my purse to refresh my hair during the day as well. Also works well to soften hair and makes it easier to comb (wet or dry).

Bumble & Bumble Styling Lotion -- volume & texture (esp when blow dried), light hold, doesn't weigh my hair down.

Dove Fly-away Tamer -- HG! it keeps all those little wispy flyaways out of my face and if I use it regularly, I notice I get less of the wisps over time b/c it keeps my fine hair from breaking. Also, doesn't get icky or sticky in heat or humidity, and doesn't weigh my hair down even if I put in a lot of it. It's also super cheap.

Re: The BEST ever hair products you've used

Neutrogena Anti-Residue shampoo - I use this only once in a while to remove build up, definitely gets the job done and it's cheap! Has a bit of an odd smell and the packing is ugly, but it works!!

Wella System Profesional Enrich Balm - great leave in treatment that smells lovely and makes my hair so soft.

L'Oreal Vive serum - comes in an orange pump dispenser, a great serum that leaves my hair silky smooth after flat ironing it

Rausch Avocado Hair cream - a Swiss product made of avocado oil, it's a leave-in cream you apply to the ends of your hair that nourishes them and prevents split ends.

And on most days I don't even need to follow up with my flat iron, whereas before this serum I had the urge to flat iron every single day.


I have mid length-long hair that is THICKTHICKTHICK (I mean really, super thick!) that has a lot of body...I should try some of that Super Skinny Serum (say that 3x fast

)....A couple of you on this thread have posted about it...I've been looking for a good Serum-type product...My hair has so much body that in the humid weather (which we're prone to in the Connecticut summers) it has a tendency to get frizzy and out of control....There are downsides to having full, thick hair, too

Anyway, this sounds like it may be the answer to my hair troubles...Thanks!

Re: The BEST ever hair products you've used

I have lots of thick wavy hair and the style changes but it always has lots of layers. Sometimes I don't color and sometimes I do. Now I have coppery colored highlights in my natural dark brown hair.

-Shampoo & Conditioner: Redken All Soft or Redken Color Care
-Styling Creme: Tigi Bedhead After Party
-Hairspray: Victoria Secret So Sexy Hairspray (It doesn't flake at all!)
-Serum: Redken Smooth Down or Victoria Secret So Sexy Hair Serum
-Paste: Redken Rewind (really good if you have layers and want to make them pop)
-Hair Treatment Mask: Queen Helene Hair Cholesterol (it smells really wierd but it totally works and it's really cheap)
-Leave In Conditioner: Hask Placenta Leave in Conditioner (it sounds really cruel but it's cruelty free) another one is Redken Anti Snap
-Blowdryer: My favorite one I've EVER owned is my current Conair Ion blowdryer. Lightweight, uses ions, cool shot button etc plus the color is lPINK!! Woot!!
-Flat Iron: Conair Wet Dry Straightener. Various heat settings plus it's great when you have bangs ala Bettie Page and don't want them all fluffy and stuff. Or the back of your hair takes forever to dry and you need it straight pronto!
