Product Review: Chi44 Iron Guard

Chi44 Iron Guard

$13.77

8.5 fl oz.

You should always have a heat protector when styling you hair using the iron. I recommend Chi 44 Iron Guard as a product to use before styling your hair.  Make sure the hair has been shampooed and conditioned. Apply a leave-in conditioner and blow dry the hair thoroughly. Spray the Chi 44 Iron Guard evenly over the hair.  If your hair is thicker I recommend sectioning the hair and spraying as you style.  Spraying lightly, hold the spray at least 2inches away from the hair. Then style as desired, making sure you use your iron starting from root to end. 

Let's talk AMA Hair Crushes!

Award shows arealways exciting for the stars, but for those of us at home we're excited to see what designer celbes choose to wear.  My favorite moment is is hair--- who did it right, who did something new and who was the showstopper. For this year's AMAs the celebrities stepped onto the red carpet making a statement! From fringed bangs, long andsStraight, layered or a blunt cut bob.  

Lady Gaga rode in on a n oversize theatrical white horse looking amazing in blonde mermaid hair.This was a very different look for her, but it definitely softened her look. 

  Ciara and Lil MaMa were sporting the short blunt cut bobs

I loved how Taylor Swift and Kelly Osbourne added fringed bangs to their hairstyles to give it a little versatility. 

The AMA’s were exciting  to see all of the glamorous hairstyles. I’m a firm believer that you hair can sometimes make or break your look!  What was your favorite look and what would you have done differently with your hair for the red carpet?

Gerri Styles My Hair Funky Pixie Cuts

Pixie cuts are the new stunning look for 2014!! It can be worn several different ways from fringed, Straight, curly, with bangs, away from the face, and wavy. I made the decision to go boss lady style for 2014 and I asked Gerri to Style My Hair! Gerri is really good at short hairstyles she knows how to make a pixie cut funky!

The pixie cut can be achieved by a quick weave, sew-in, or with your own natural hair!! If you just want to try this look for a weekend, or  special occasion you should definitely  go with the quick weave method. The  quick weave method can be done on cap to protect the hair and laid very smoothly to achieve any short look you want.  The pixie cut is a very simple, chic, and versatile. This hairstyle that’s very easy to maintain. The styling products great to use daily for this look is a serum, pomade, wax and light weight holding spray depending upon the hairstyle you are going to wear.

Bridal Hair

Bridal Hair 

Summer brides for 2014 are anticipating JANUARY! It's the time when all of the big bridal shows, and wedding gowns go on sale and the countdown begins.  One of the things that brides are tearing out of those magazines for not only the dress but the BRIDAL HAIR!

Hair is inspired by trends and the type of dress the bride decides.  From classic to edgy it's up to you and no one can tell a bride what to do on her special day.

This is an artistic look.  Here the bride is letting her hair have a moment! Love it!

Classic low buns are traditional and always chic. Perfect for a veil.

Here is a bridal look that is a mix of artistic and traditional. A twist on a classic bun.

A sleek ponytail is a different take on a bridal look but perfect for a casual wedding or to highlight beautiful hair jewelry.

Here is beautiful side swept waterfall of curls.  This would look amazing on a sweetheart neckline and princess skirt.

Here is a Grecian goddess look. Try this with a tiara.

Edgy and couture is all about attitude. If the dress and make up are modern go for edgy hair!

Crown Braid

#gerristylesmyhair

This week Gerri showed me how to do a crown braid and I love it.  This is something perfect for a holiday party, or any other special occasion.  It's pretty easy (if you know how to braid)and very cute here's how it's done...

Section hair and leave out a 2 inch perimeter around the hair and clip it.

Make sure the hair is straight. You can straighten your hair with a flat iron and CHI heat protecting spray.

Braid hair in an underhanded braid using the hair sectioned in the middle and pin. Take a rat tail comb and loosen the braid for a relaxed and effortless look.

Curl as desired.

To Treat or Not To Treat?

No more drama! That's right! No more hair drama. In this day and age of hair no woman should walk around with dry or damaged hair. Treatments keep the hair drama at bay! It's essential in your hair care routine.  Treatments can be done on all hair textures and depending on the condition of your hair you have tons of treatment products to choose. 

Most treatments should be done every two weeks. Drink plenty of water because hair health starts from the inside out.  In addition to drinking plenty of water treatments keep your hair healthy, moisturized, and vibrant.  Treatments help prevent hair loss, excessive shedding, dry and dull hair, and it helps with smoothness of the hair. 

Different Types of Treatments are:  Protein, Keratin, Deep Condition, Hot Oil, Mud Masque, Henna and so on. 

There is no excuse for hair drama, you should consult with your stylist and make sure that you are treating your every two weeks to have lustrous hair!!

Fall Hair Color

Fall Hair Colors!

Fall might be the time to experiment with color.  There is less risk of damaging your hair, your void of chlorine, summer heat, salt water and other summer elements that can damage color treated hair.  With the drab conditions of fall and winter you can bring color to your look by trying colors like ravishing red, chocolate brown and even sunny blonde.  Go drastic this fall! If you have raven black hair try adding a few peek-a-boo colors around the face like red, or brown. An ombre effect is another option to try a little color at a time. Try an all over Vibrant Red Shade to your hair to give off a sexy, glamour look to you r hair. If you have Layers try highlighting your hair with blonde and a dark brown undertones to create depth and definition to your style.

Blond and Chocolate are a nice balance for the fall.

Gerri Styles My Hair is a phrase Gerri came up with for her clients to hashtag her styling looks. Not only does Gerri Style My Hair in her shop-- she styles me at home.  Gerri gives me great tips to keep my hair healthy and fly in between my visits with her. She's always looking for ways for me to keep my hair flawless and every Tuesday I will share a style that Gerri has taught me that I can share with you.

The Wavy Romantic curls. The curls that look effortless but styled. It looks like I rolledout the bed with sexy waves.  I asked Gerri how I can achieve this look more than whenever I wanted...

 Make sure you have a Barrel Curling Iorn, Holding Spray and Duck Clips.

 Section your hair into three sections. 

Start from the back section and start at the nape from the root and hole the barrel curling iron upward for 10 seconds, then turn  the barrel downward for 10 seconds. Repeat. 

When finished  spray a light holding spray, and remove the clips. Volia! You have a Wavy Romantic Look!
