Which IMAGE Skincare Serum Is Right For You?
Which Shampoo and Conditioner Are Right For You?
When it comes to styling products, my main goal as a stylist is to ensure my guests’ hair health. And the same goes for me! I am all about moisture, shine, and health when styling my hair.
I have fine hair but a lot of it. And when I say a lot, I mean a lot. I keep my hair cut in a one-length bob and heat style daily, so having a great heat protectant is key to maintaining my hair health.
For Healthy Hair, Start in the Shower
Hair health starts in the shower, and I have been obsessed with Oribe’s new Hair Alchemy Shampoo and Conditioner. This new line protects the hair by encapsulating each strand with a protective barrier. It’s a comfort to know that my hair will be protected from any future coloring or styling just by using the shampoo and conditioner.
Protect Your Hair When Styling With Heat
After my shower, I always start my blow dry with my favorite leave-in conditioner and heat protectant, Supershine from Oribe. This product is amazing. It gives incredible shine and softness to my hair, but it doesn’t weigh it down.
My number one ride-or-die product is All-Style by Bumble and bumble, which allows my blowout to last for days. Al-Style helps add soft volume, but the best part is it has a built-in dry shampoo. When paired with heat, it becomes a powder that soaks up all your oils. It’s pretty magical!
Now You Can Reach for the Hot Tool
After all of my protective hair prep, I cannot live without my ghd Styler. This fantastic hot tool gives me soft, lived-in curls that will last a few days.
