The majority of hair consumers have at some time or other used a hairdryer to dry their tresses and/or style their hair with a concentrator, diffuser, brush or other tools.

Whether they used a hood, bonnet or hand held dryer, all should be plugged into an electrical outlet equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter or GFCI.

Even though a GFCI is a relatively inexpensive device, it is specifically designed to protect hair consumers from extremely severe or fatal shocks when using a hairdryer or other small electrical devices for their hair or personal grooming.

When a hair dryer that is plugged in and operational is dropped into water, it can instantly electrocute the person using the dryer or any additional people in the water when the hair dryer makes contact. (more…)

Lindsay Lohan, Linds to her friends, recently posed for the December 2008 cover of Harpers Bazaar, which is now available on newstands across the United States.

Lindsay was photographed rocking a spectacular one-of-a-kind jumpsuit created by Michael Kors. The shimming creation was encrusted with Crystallized Swarovski Elements for Saks Fifth Avenue.

Her rich warm blonde hued hair was styled for the shoot by celeb hairdresser Adir Abergel for Frederic Fekkai. Adir left Lindsay’s hair long and loose with a deep off center part connecting side-swept sections that flowed into tousled curtains of hair. Longer tresses spilled seductively over her shoulders, cascading down to her back.

Lind’s hair color was a beautiful combination of much lighter face framing strands and rich darker bases. It was no surprise to me to discovered that Celebrity Haircolorist to the Stars - Tracey Cunningham - was the hair color mastermind behind the celebrity’s gorgeous haircolor. (more…)

It was only a matter of time before Ken’s Healthy Hair product line started winning awards.

The December 2008 issue of Redbook Magazine named Ken’s Healthy Hair Boost Up Drops as one of their Most Valuable Products (MVP) for Beauty.

Redbook’s take on the fab Boost Up Drops? “Fading haircolor is a fading memory thanks to these pigment-packed drops. Add a few to your conditioner or styling product for a blast of color that rinses away the next time you wash”. (more…)

I recently took a class on the Rusk AntiCurl™ line which I must say is a really fantastic product. Although it’s officially called AntiCurl™ by the good people at Rusk, if you have to classify it, you might say it is more like a relaxer than a permanent chemical straightener.

Why? The AntiCurl product results will soften over time and the original texture of the hair (curls, waves or combined) will eventually return as they were before the treatment.

With a chemical straightener, the hair does not ever revert to its original condition until root regrowth starts to appear. The Rusk AntiCurl™ product is available in three different formulas - #1, #2, #3 depending on your hair type, texture and needs.

In the Anti Curl class the professionals who were teaching it mentioned that AntiCurl is ideal with guys who wish to soften or greatly reduce the appearance of their waves and curls without going through the process of a chemical straightening. Depending on their hair type and how much texture, they may requires #1, 2 or 3. (more…)
