These are a few of my favorite things...

I thought for my latest post, I would post a few of my favorite hair products! I know there are a million different kinds of products and I have tried my fair share of them. But throughout the years I have developed a system for my hair that I think works pretty well :) Now I will share that with you!

Favorite flat iron:
The reason I LOVE this flat iron so much is because of how smoothly it glides in the hair! Also, it has a smart chip sensor in it that self adjusts the heat settings in the iron so there is so guessing when you're trying to figure out what temperature you should set your iron to.
I've had mine at the salon for almost 3 years and it still works perfectly! Because of this flat iron, I have found curling irons to be completely obsolete! Now when I travel, or go on location for weddings or different events I only have to carry one tool instead of many different tools to create different looks! Its super versatile because you can create so many different textures with this iron. The GHD website has great tutorial videos that I love watching to pick up new tricks!


Favorite hairsprays:
Its a toss up for me. Depending on what look I am going for i switch between Bed head Hard head & White Sands Infinity.
Hard head is great for when I want an intense, strong hold. I use it to tease my hair. I usually take a section of hair, spray under the section, let it dry, then tease the hair! It has amazing hold that will last all day! It's also great for a final spritz after I finish an updo.

White sands Infinity I like for everyday use. It has a great hold but you can still touch the hair after. It also has humidity blockers in it which is great for southwest Florida! I usually use it as a working spray while I'm doing updo styles.


Favorite Shampoo & Conditioner

Obliphica is a pretty unknown brand, but when I was at the Orlando hair show last year, they had a booth was right next to mine so I had the opportunity to check it out. It is a little pricy but I really love the smell and it makes my hair so soft! It has so many benefits like repairs damage, adds moisture, it has a UV filter, it even claims to delays the aging process... yup no grays in my future(I hope)! I like to switch my shampoos and conditioners every so often but I find myself always going back to this one!


Favorite leave-in products:
I have found this to be an absolute miracle for any damaged hair! I use it wet and dry to add moisture to my dry locks! I am constantly abusing my hair with dryers, flat irons, and hair colors, but my hair never appears to be dry and brittle because of this oil! It rescues even the dryest of hair from bad hair days! It is also great as a heat barrier before blowdrying and flat ironing. Not to mention it smells like heaven!

This is one of my newest faves! It literally has 12 different benefits for your hair. It seals color, smoothes frizz, repairs damage, prevents split ends, moisturizes dry hair, strengthens fragile hair, prevents flat iron damage, protects hair from chlorine, wind, and sun damage, adds shine, softness and silky finish, protects from blowdrying, improves texture and manageability, and anti aging formula! Yes, I cheated and looked at the bottle to list all twelve... Theres no way I can remember all that! I usually take the two products and mix it in my hand then put it in my hair.

Favorite product for volume:
This little powder looks like baby powder but packs a punch for your hair! All you do is sprinkle its in dry hair and let the magic happen! It plumps up your strands and makes it look like you just teased your hair! There are a lot of different brands that make this powder or something similar and I must say I like them all equally! This is just the one I am currently using.


Well, there you have it people! Most of these products can be found at the salon where I work (Hair to be Different) or they can be ordered if you really want them :)
