I’ve been seeing some new hair stuff around lately that I’m very excited to try. Check these out:
Moroccan Oil Smooth! If you’ve never tried Moroccan Oil, you should. Not only does it do amazing things for your hair but it smells incredible. Like a warm vacation somewhere. One reason I want to try this line is that it’s especially great for frizzy hair. According to the their site, it has argan oil, argan butter, Vitamin E and essential fatty acids which are going to smooth and hydrate your hair. In particular, I want to try the smoothing lotion because it will help with your blow-dry time while making your locks feel like butter. This is some pricey stuff starting at $28-$43, making it more of a luxury item but if you feel like treating yourself to some lovely hair products, give this new collection a go! This stuff can only be bought online or in specialty stores or salons.
New TIGI Products- Tigi has just released some products recently to add to their already fun collection. The first is a matte wax is perfect for shorter hair or hair with fun texture as well as men’s hair who don’t want additional shine. $16.95 I believe. Flexi Head is a strong hold hairspray but has flexibility too so it won’t leave your hair super crunchy or sticky. $13.95.
Blow out is what I’m most excited for, next to Motor Mouth and it is a golden shimmering blow creme which will help smooth hair, reduce blow dry time and enhance brunette and red tones in the hair. $16.95. Motor Mouth is a volumizer that also adds shine to your hair. Id be curious as to how this one works because typically products that are a gloss also leave the hair heavier but I bet Tigi did a good job making this a two in one without weighing the hair done. $16.95. You can get these at Ulta or any salon that carries TIGI as well as online.
AG Smoothing Balm-This has been out for a little bit but I haven’t seen anyone really talk about it. AG makes some excellent products and this one is no different. The thing I love about it is that its a balm for DRY hair. So as the months get colder and your hair feels a little sad or dehydrated, smooth this on your ends or your flyways or just wherever you want it to be frizz free. It has argan, marula, and mongongo oils inside ( I honestly don’t know what the last two are or how they really help the hair, but they sound exotic and like they do something awesome). This is $22 and you get this at Ulta or salons that carry AG. I’ve seen in some places that have tiny little jars so you could pop it into your purse.
Alterna Bamboo Anti-Frizz Curl Defining Cream and Curl Re-Activating Spray
I’m a big fan of Alterna because they are all about sustainability, contain UV protectants in a lot of their products, and are free of many different chemicals or harsh ingredients for the hair. These products are formulated for curly hair (duh) meaning that they won’t leave your curls crunchy or sticky. This has eco-certified ingredients along with their amazing Kendi oil for extra smoothness. Each are $25 and you can get this at Ulta, online, or salons that carry Alterna.
Wella LuxeOil Collection-Not only do Wella’s products smell amazing, but they deliver awesome results. Many hairstylists use Wella in their salons for color and product. This luxe oil line contains a Keratin Protect Shampoo and conditioner, a Keratin restore mask, a leave in conditioning spray, a reconstructive elixir, and a light oil shine spray. These products all contain oils like jojoba, argon oil, and almond oil. Prices range from $22-$48 and you get this at Ulta, online, or in salons that carry Wella. This product is good for those of you who lighten your hair often or have really damaged hair from either bleach or from too much heat styling. These will add keratin, a protein, back into your hair and will restore as well as smooth your back into good condition.
Fekkai Hair Fragrance Mist- Okay, I won’t lie-I’m not sure how many people will buy this stuff because I for one don’t know how worth it is to me to spend $20 on fragrance for my hair. However this is somewhat new and intriguing nonetheless. I don’t know, maybe I would buy it if I felt like I had extra money to spend. Which is basically never. Anyway, this stuff adds wonderful scents to the hair while lightly fighting frizz and adding shine all at the same time.
The pink one is rose scented, the yellow is more citrusy, and the blue is creme vanilla. The blue one sounds like my kinda scent for this time of the year! You can get these at Ulta or fekkai.com or anywhere that uses Fekkai products. Be wary of ordering stuff off other sites though because they can change the formula to make more of a profit. That goes with any salon professional product. Fekkai also came out with a blowout primer, blowout texturizer, and blowout serum you should check out if you like his products.
Billy Jealousy Beard Envy- For your man out there or if you have a beard…these products have been out for awhile. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked about what products are good for beards. While you could use a styling wax or pomade, these are formulated for beards. Which for me I think is kinda cool because I guess it sets it apart and you want to treat that facial hair gently and clean it well. This kit is $25 or you can get just the beard control or shampoo for $20. Billy Jealousy also has a tattoo care kit that I think is pretty cool if you want to keep your tattoos in tip top shape. Get this at Ulta!
I was trying to find some more drugstore brands that were new just to vary some of the price points but there wasn’t anything I was super impressed with it yet. Well, there ya go! Some new hair stuff to check out. 🙂
