Seven Sins Lust Pre-Styling Hair Lotion

Through the years, I’ve had varying styles of hair—in the 70s, I had what was known as the “Dorothy Hamill” cut (one word: traumatic), in the 80s, I was very much into a Farrah Fawcett feathered look, which then morphed into the “Aqua-Net big hair”

When you live in a small town like I do, you find yourself doing a lot of shopping online. When I first moved out here after getting married it was like culture shock. I missed walking into a big store or mall and buying whatever 

nuNAAT Karite Special with Shea Butter Hair Products

Ever since my son learned to swim, we could not keep him out of the water. By 5, he was on a swim team swimming hundreds of yards a day and now that he is in high school and on the varsity swim team, he is still a fish. He easily spends 3-4 hours a day in the pool and chlorine. You know what that can do to one’s hair!

I have seen my poor sons hair go from soft and beautiful to hard and crunchy because it was so dried out. I have gotten him several different products for overly dry hair and they work to an extent. His hair really is a special case and needed deep hydration as well as deep help! I heard that a company called nuNAAT had specialty products and I was able to get some for my son to try out and review.
 nuNAAT Karite Special with Shea Butter Hair Products
The nuNAAT product line is different than some of the other professional hair care products. They focus specifically on a specific hair type, texture and problems that you may be having. I chose the collection called Karite Special with Shea Butter. Reading the description of the benefits helped me choose the proper one.

Here is why Karite should help with his hair:
Packed with vitamin A, D, E and F
Protects hair from harmful sun damage
No oily buildup or greasy residue
No clogged pores
Rehydrates, restores and revitalizes dry, damaged and brittle hair
Restores natural brilliance to chemically-processed hair
Protects hair from damage caused by daily flat iron use

Because the nuNAAT line is made for specific hair types, the products are meant to work as a complete system and understandably, not all products are right for all hair types. Since we were looking for deep hydration, the Karite set included 5 products. These are the Nourishing Shampoo, the Reconstructive Conditioner, the Leave in Detangler, the Special Deep Conditioning Hair Mask and the Thermo Active Anti-Frizz. We had a lot of work to do!

Of course, step one is the shampoo and conditioner. He used these on a daily basis for the past few weeks. The products contain shea butter which has been shown to be a great moisturizer for deep hydration. After just the first 2 uses, I saw a nice change for the better on his hair. The brittleness was going away and his hair felt much softer to the touch.

Occasionally, when the sons hair gets really long, he will get some frizz and that is just on the front portion. He also never blow drys his hair either. He did try out the anti frizz product one time and it did a nice job smoothing the hair down. But his hair is pretty short right now, so it really was not a product that he would use on a regular basis. The detangler was not something he could use either, although when his hair grows out, it may become one that will be used.

The deep conditioning hair mask is a super smooth cream that you can use a few times a month. It is thick and creamy but not overly thick. Zac used it easily by just scooping some into his hand and smearing it through his hair He left it on for 10 minutes or some and then rinsed very well. His hair came out feeling so soft and amazing. It reminded me of just a few years ago when his hair was normal, well, normal for him!

Overall, the products worked very well for my son. I am pleased with the texture of his hair and how soft it has become. It has a nice wave to it and it glows with shine. As the summer progresses and the daily swimming takes it normal toll, I will be interested to see how this works for him, in the long run. From what we have seen in the past 2 weeks, I think it will do well for him.

Tips to Control Frizzy Hair

I have been pretty lucky when it comes to hair care. My hair is relatively smooth, for the most part, although there have been several times when the humidity really gave it a run for the money. My best friend, however, has very curly hair

The Karmin G3 Salon Pro Styling Iron

Even though my hair is on the short side, it is still long enough to need volume and body. The time I need it the most is right when I have gone a week or two past when my hair should have been cut. My hair gets long and heavy and loses its shape rather quickly, so I rely on hair styling tools to help me give body and height to my hair, like the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Hair Styling Iron. I am excited to be able to review one for you today, courtesy of the kind folks at Professional Beauty Products, where shipping is free anywhere in the world.
Karmin G3 Salon Pro Styling Iron
The New Karmin G3 Salon Pro Hair Styling Iron is considered to be the ultimate hair styling tool. It is perfect to use for any style of hair you want to create. If you choose to curl, flip, straighten or add volume and body, the G3 a great choice. I love using professional models because they come with so many awesome features that are not found on typical drug store units.

Important to me is flash quick heating, a tangle-free swivel cord and temperature settings for all hair types. The last thing I want to do is fry my hair but with the Tourmaline ceramic plates, your hair will look fabulous. The G3 Salon Pro comes with a load of additional features. Check these out!

Product Features:
The Karmin G3 Salon Pro Styling Iron
Negative ions and infrared heat which removes static for silky shiny hair.
Ion field technology which seals in natural oils.
Variable temperature settings for all hair types. From 120°C (250°F) to 240°C (460°F).
Drop Safe Technology.
Worldwide Voltage 100-240V
Anti-Slip edges.
Slim Handle Design.
Automatic sleep mode that shuts off after 1 hour.
Floating plates.
3 Year Warranty.
Lovely mat and carrying case combined.

Some of the other features that are unique that I really love is that unit has a nice slim design. I have issues with my right arm and I cannot hold it up for long periods of time. The slim design also means that this flat iron is really lightweight. I have no problems manipulating it however I need. I just love the 1″ plates. They are perfect for any hairstyle. The big irons with the 2 inch plates are just too big for me to use. Plus this iron has curves edges so you get a beautiful smooth style and your hair just glides right through with no tugging or pulling.

Also I found the on/off switch and temperature dial in on the inside of the iron. I love that because it lessens the ability to accidentally turn it up. High heat on the hair is what gives the most damage so I have been using it around the medium range.. around 350, typically. That is the recommended heat for my type of hair. This iron goes up to 460 degrees which is for coarse, thick hair.

For me, I love adding just some body to my style. I have thick hair that falls quickly so adding some body and height is easy with this iron. I can also add some waves and curls whenever I want as well. This iron is fabulous for multiple uses and it has quickly become my go to styling tool. Here is my hair after adding some easy curl and body to my hair. It does not even have hairspray on it yet and it is bouncy and full of life. I Love this iron!
