Healthy Hair

What is the key to beautiful hair?  In my opinion it is keeping your hair healthy that allows for you to have amazingly beautiful hair.  There are so many different products out there that say they promote healthy hair but which do you choose?  Here are some of my absolute favorite products that help to keep my hair healthy!

1. Redken Extreme Antisnap Leave in Treatment

This product was first introduced to me by another girl who used to write for the website Stoolala, and is a professional hair dresser.  Do you ever notice that the ends of your hair look fried, or just dry and brittle?  Do you find that you have a harder time growing out to your hair due to the damage at the ends of your hair?  This product will help to promote healthier looking hair, by repairing the damaged parts at the ends of your hair.  This is a leave in treatment that is rich in proteins, fruit acids and ceramides which all help to fortify hair, reduce breakage, and add strength and shine.  I have always had the hardest time growing my hair out, and have found that breakage and damage at my ends result in not being able to grow my hair long.  Right now I am in the process of growing my hair out and this is a MUST in my hair regimen.  I have noticed a true difference in my hair since using this product.  The ends look healthy, and split ends are few and far between.  My hair truly looks healthy!  Here's the steps I take when using this product

1. Shower, towel dry hair

2. Pump about 2 squirts into your hand and rub your hands together

3. Apply solution to ends of hair only!  Stay away from the roots because it will make your hair look greasy

4. Enjoy healthy looking hair with not split ends or breakage!

You can buy this product at any CVS or Walgreens 

Redken Anti Snap Leave in = $15

2. Goldwell Dual Senses Rich Repair 60 sec Treatment

For those of you out there who do not use a deep conditioner atleast once a week, you are doing your hair a significant injustice.  Everyone needs to deep condition their hair atleast 1 time a week.  Because I only wash my hair 2 times a week, I usually use a deep conditioner both times.  Why do we need a deep conditioner?  The wear and tear the the environment does on our hair on a daily basis is immense.  Whether it be from the things you do to your hair yourself, like blow drying or straightening, or just from the affects of wind or the sun, you are damaging your hair!  A quick fix for the constant strain you put your hair through is a deep conditioner, and Goldwell Dual Senses is one of my all time favorite.  The product itself smells amazing, and leaves your hair silky smooth and healthier looking in just 60 seconds.  Here's the steps I take to achieve amazing looking hair:

1. Shampoo your hair with your normal shampoo

2. Before applying conditioner squeeze out excess water from your hair.

3. Take a small towel and towel dry your hair in the shower.  What most people don't realize is that if your applying conditioner to soaking wet hair, your not allowing the formula to truly work in your hair.  So towel dry your hair so it is damp.

4. Apply conditioner liberally starting with the ends and working to the top of your hair

5. Leave in for 60 seconds.  You can leave it in for as long as you want I usually leave it in while I shave, wash my body and face

6. Rinse thoroughly

7. Enjoy hair that looks 10x healthier

This stuff really works and helps to promote all around healthier hair.  You will be surprised at how amazing your hair looks after you've blow dried it!

Goldwell Dual Senses = $14 and I find mine on Amazon.com
