Keep it Keratin

Since I started getting the Paul Mitchell Awupui Keratriplex conditioning treatments, I've been keratin-obsessed. So, finding out one of my favorite hair product companies, Organix, has a new keratin-infused line made me want to shout from the rooftops. Not only does this line come in a super chic hot pink bottle (bonus points), but it smells amazing and after leaving the conditioner on for 5 minutes (as suggested on the back of the bottle), your hair really does feel softer. I'll give my two thumbs up. 

Keratin's Killin' It

I maintain after trying a million different dry shampoos that Suave is my favorite. However, they have really outdone themselves with this Keratin Infusion Dry Shampoo. Not only does it smell amazing (hair perfume), but it does wonders for your tresses. Over time, your hair's natural keratin is stripped, making it frizzy, unmanageable and difficult to style. This product pumps keratin back into your locks, helping absorb oil, refreshing hair and even extending your blowout. Eat your heart out, bargain shoppers. 

Forever Blonde

I have tried every hair product there is so I feel that I'm the perfect person to let it be known when I find a keeper. This line by Paul Mitchell, Forever Blonde, does everything it says it does. My favorite is the Forever Blonde Shampoo because the scent is simply delicious. Purple shampoos like this one intensifies blonde and white toned hair. This color-depositing shampoo brightens hair and prevents brassiness. Trying this shampoo was a suggestion from my stylist who was trying to take my hair from damaged from being over-processed and styled to silky smooth. Mission accomplished...my hair is the healthiest it's been in years. Between this line and their Awapuhi keratin collection, Paul Mitchell is winning my heart over more and more. 

Keratin Cures

Some ladies swear by expensive hair products and some don't. I've always been somewhere in the middle...until a recent trip to the salon. As this sassy flamboyant male stylist pointed out...my hair was having a crisis. Since moving to Florida, my hair has been stressed with not only the normal bleaching and styling but now also salt water, chlorine and a larger than life dose of sunshine. My hair was having a mental breakdown and I was at fault. I tried my first Kertain treatment from Paul Mitchell's Awapuhi line. Heaven on earth. These treatments can be as expensive as $100...mine was $18. I have slowly been accumulating other products from this life-changing line. My hair has made a 180. The scent is to die - wild ginger. Try it and thank me later.

Bargain Blonde

I have tried every hair coloring method and well, frankly...every hair color. Men are fortunate that they don't have to spend an arm and leg every 6 weeks to get their roots touched up. Turns out, neither do women. A coworker of mine branched out and scheduled an appointment for full highlights at the Paul Mitchell School. After seeing her new sun-kissed streaks, I was convinced. Since then, I've been there for highlights, a hair cut, Keratin treatments and most recently my roots colored. You can not beat the prices...I'm saving nearly $90 every time I get my hair colored. Not only do you have the student doing your hair, but their instructor is there constantly checking on their technique so you can rest assured you won't come out looking like a leopard. Two thumbs up on this find.
