I Love My Brazilian Blowout!

June 16, 2010

COOL NEW HAIR TREATMENT!

I have been hearing alot lately about the Brazilian Blowout and when my hairstylist Amy Anderson told me she got certified i immediately jumped on the bandwagon. Amy is an amazing stylist who i completely trust and she really stressed how good my hair would look and how easy it would be for me to style.

My hair is naturally wavy and very frizzy and actually takes alot of work to get straight and shiny. My hair probably takes about 30-40 minutes every morning between the blowdrying and straight ironing. I can only imagine how damaging that is to my hair!

So today while i was getting my hair colored, Amy suggested we do the Brazilian Blowout Treatment which through the use of a Brazilian Super Nutrient Complex and a proprietary polymer system, the Brazilian Blowout actually improves the condition of the hair by creating a protective protein layer around the hair shaft to eliminate frizz and smooth the cuticle. That sounded good to me.

The whole process took about an hour and a half. She washed my hair with a special shampoo and then put on the solution section by section, then she blowdrys each section straight. In order to seal the solution to the cuticle she then straight irons your hair and then you are done!.

My hair has a completley different look and feel to it. It is so soft and straight and super shiny and it is supposed to stay this way for 10-12 weeks.
I am looking forward to rolling out of bed with cute hair!

Here are some before and after pics from my iphone at the salon not very good quality but you get the point…

AFTER

The before is very scary as you can see… and the after..ahhhhhhhmazing! Its is supposed to last up to 3 months! Yeah!

Today’s Feature in Greer’s OC

March 3, 2010

I was so surprised this morning to see my picture in my incoming mailbox from Greer’s OC Daily Dose today!

I recently had Leslie Christen style my photoshoot for my new blog. Leslie is an amazing stylist and blew me away when she arrived at my door with a rack of gorgeous clothing for me to wear throughout the shot. From brand new Cynthia Vincent Dresses to Vintage pieces like the one I am wearing in this photo above paired with vintage Channel jewelery and Michael Kors heels. It was like being JLO for a day!

But seriously, I would highly recommend having a stylist on any photoshoot, they are a dream come true! And if you live in Orange County and you are not a subscriber to Greer’s OC, become one now! She posts the latest about this awesome county of ours regarding new restaurants, local concerts, crazy awesome small businesses, secret sales and the hottest parties.
