• How To Revive Hair Loss

    While I’m usually discussing women’s beauty products, we feature a lot of men’s hair products within our store as well. A few of my favorite men’s products are by Bosley. Everyone knows that Bosley is the number one hair product when it comes to thinning hair. But did you know that it also can be used to prevent hair loss before it starts?
     

    Bosley Defense Nourishing Shampoo is great for anyone with normal to fine hair or hair that has been color treated.  This shampoo is a gentle and sulfate-free cleanser that helps to provide a healthy and cleansed environment for the hair which aids in hair re-growth. It also removes impurities and toxins such as D.H.T. which is one of the primary causes of hair thinning.
     

    The Bosley Revive Starter Pack is also available for both colored and non-treated colored hair. This product is for hair that is already visibly thinning. It’s a three step process which includes shampoo, conditioner and a volumizing treatment. hair loss
     

    The steps are laid out below:

    Step 1: Use the Bosley Revive Nourishing Shampoo. This nourishing shampoo gently cleanses the hair, removing environmental residue, which is a leading contributor of hair loss. The shampoo will leave weak and thinning hair looking fuller, thicker and more resilient.
     

    Step 2: Bosley Revive Volumizing Conditioner.  This conditioner is formulated and infused with vitamins that moisturize the hair and scalp.  By stimulating the scalp, it relieves dryness, flaking and itching. It also nourishes the hair shaft and improves hair texture resulting in instant volume and flexible hair.
     

    Step 3: Bosley Revive Volumizing Treatment. This product is to be used daily to improve the appearance of thinning hair. By nourishing the hair follicle, this treatment stimulates blood circulation in the scalp allowing the hair to become thicker and fuller.
     

    Remember that the Bosley Revive Starter Pack is a treatment for hair that has already begun to thin and show signs of hair loss. If your hair hasn’t started to thin yet, use the Defense Starter Pack that’s also available in our store!

  • Lost and Forgotten Hair Products!


    There are so many products featured within our store that every now and then, some products that I would love to mention seem to get pushed back and forgotten. Today, however I’m going to revive some of those “lost and forgotten” products that I feel would be beneficial to myself and the rest of you guys as well!
     

    I love it when corporations actually hear the wants and needs of the public and address them. One of these needs that a lot of people are having is for more eco-friendly products. And one company in particular, Abba, has definitely heard the public’s outcry.beauty discounters
     

    Abba is a very well known organic and eco friendly brand that features products ranging from shampoos, conditioners, leave-ins and much more!
     

    If you have curly hair, one of the must-have Abba hair care products is Pure Curl Prep. This product is an activating tonic that defines natural or permed curls. Two of the main ingredients are lemon grass and orange peel oil that adds luster and a glossy shine to the hair. It’s also sulfate free and 100% vegan.
     

    Another product that I’ve been meaning to mention on the blog for quite some time is Redken Extreme. Redken Extreme is a great brand to use for anyone that wishes to restore and repair their damaged hair. These products help to strengthen and replenished distressed hair making it more manageable. It also cleanses and provides strength and cuticle reinforcement with the help of proteins and ceramide.
     

    And speaking of Redken, a discount Redken product that I just have to mention is Redken’s Smooth Down. Redken’s Smooth Down enriches, tames and nourishes hair, giving it a long-lasting, frizz-free finish. It’s great for those with long hair or for anyone that lives where there is a lot of humidity.
     

    There’s more discount Redken and eco-friendly products, such as Abba hair care available throughout the store. Be sure to take a look around and keep checking out the blog for more products and info!

  • Solutions to Common Hair Problems

    beauty discountersAs a fellow lover of hair products, I know how daunting it can be to not only find great hair products, but wonder if they’re the right products for your hair! But today you guys are in for a treat! I’m going to tell you guys about some great products and the hair types that work best for them!
     

    For anyone that wants softer hair (don’t we all?) or has dry hair, try Redken All Soft products. Just like the name says, Redken All Soft replenishes dry, brittle hair and transforms it into soft, shiny tresses with lots of movement!
     

    Some of the key ingredients in these wonderful products are avocado and olive oil. The avocado oil provides that “silky” softness that we all love and the olive oil gives an ‘’inside – out’’ conditioning treatment to your hair.
     

    If you have scalp/dandruff issues or just want to be more eco-friendly, then Pureology hair products is the brand for you.  This award winning, sulfate free hair company, features products that are designed to help stop and relieve the symptoms of dandruff/scalp problems. The Dandruff ScalpCure Shampoo is extra gentle and helps stop the symptoms of dandruff. It also contains a blend of organic mushroom botanicals, green tea and burdock which calms and soothes the scalp.
     

    The Dandruff ScalpCure Conditioner helps to stop scalp flaking and itching while calming and soothing the scalp. Be sure to shake the bottle well and use at least twice a week. After applying evenly to your scalp, leave the conditioner on for 1-3 minutes and then rinse off. You can repeat this procedure if necessary.
     

    And for those of you that have limp, lifeless hair or simply want more volume, KMS products are the way to go.  For just a little bit of “umph” try KMS California Add Volume Root and Body Lift. The product comes out of the can in a light-weight spray foam that’s made to lift the roots and add body and texture.
     

    Or if you want to add volume to your hair while blow-drying, use KMS California Add Volume Blow Dry Lotion. It’s an alcohol free gel, that’s made to use while blow drying your hair and because it contains sans alcohol, the finish result is simply soft hair with natural looking volume.
     

    Hopefully I covered a lot of common hair problems and gave you some great solutions! Be sure to keep reading the blog for more hair problems and product solutions for your hair needs!

  • Do You Have Dull, Damaged Hair? Try Leave-In Conditioner

    Many people who suffer from dull, damaged hair use leave-in conditioners make their hair shiny, smooth, and full-bodied.  This hot styling trend of 2008 continues to increase in popularity.

    When hair stylists and their customers saw a need to restore hair made dull by perms and coloring, they created leave-in conditioners.  Regular conditioners tend to become less effective the more people style their hair with flat irons and blow dryers as well as mouse and hair spray.  As these products continue to be applied to your hair, the less shiny and silky your hair becomes and the easier it can become damaged.

    Leave-in conditioners, also called leave-on conditioners as some people call it, are made with extracts from botanicals and topical polymers that make hair healthy from the root to the tip at the same time making it more lustrous and manageable.  Another benefit of these conditioners is that they are able to help detangle hair with its polymer compound.  This compound reduces breakage and allows your hair to dry faster.

    They can also aid in reducing hair frizz and split-ends.  Even if you use a regular, wash-out conditioner after cleansing your hair, as soon as you blow dry it, the static created can make your hair more likely to be damaged from the heat of the dryer.  So try applying a thermal protector before you style to keep heat damage at bay  Leave-in conditioners should also be used to repair the protein bonds.  When they are repaired, your hair will become more smooth and shiny.  And since the sun plays a roll in dulling and fading hair, use one with UVA and UVB sunscreen.

    Leave-In Conditioners Advantages

    • More shine
    • Protects while repairing frizz and split-ends
    • Sun protection
    • Adds moisture to dried-out hair
    • Improves damaged hair

    Put on a leave-in a conditioner to bring back the body and shine to your flat, dull hair.

  • Restore Your Hair’s Good Health

    A lot of people at some point in their lives have experienced hair has thinned in areas.  But this is not a conditions you have to live with if you apply the following suggestions to take your hair from a poor condition to a healthy one.

    Eat Healthy Foods

    Every food and beverage you consume is absorbed by your body.  And the vitamins and minerals your body receives all depend on the type of food you choose to eat.  Since the nutrients your body takes in are partly circulated to your hair follicles, you need to eat healthy food with the proper nutrients in order to have strong, healthy hair.

    Some examples of healthy food for your hair are avocados and tofu.  These foods have two nutrients necessary for health hair: omega and protein.  There are tons of meals you can make using these ingredients.

    Adequate Rest

    Getting enough rest is essential for your hair follicles to repair themselves.  While you sleep, your body works on healing, and sleeping during certain times of the day can be extra beneficial; 10 at night to 2 in the morning is the best part of the day to rest.  It is very simple to adjust your sleep schedule and call it a night earlier in the evening.  By making a small change to when you take your beauty rest, you could have a glorious head of hair that will make others envious.

    Regular Exercise

    Exercise is one of the best activities that benefits your health and your hair.  By exercising consistently, you can increase the circulation of your blood.  And increased blood circulation will bring more nutrients to your body.  Workout for 30 minutes three days during the week and improve not only your hair and skin, but also your overall lifestyle.
