<p>So, you know how sometimes you happen to come across something so great that you just have to tell everyone?</p>
<p>Well, that happened to me when I discovered evolve&#8217;s combs and brushes.  I&#8217;m pretty picky about the products that I use in my hair &#8212; even down to the combs and brushes (what a diva I am, right? I know).<br />
Well, evolve&#8217;s ultra styling comb is great for combing through my coils and curls and their rat tail comb is easy on the scalp.</p>
<p>Their products worked great on my permed hair and I love it on my natural hair just the same.  They&#8217;ve also got satin pillowcases (which I swear by) and mesh caps to protect even the best hair styles.</p>
<p>Do you want to find out more about evolve&#8217;s product line (and I suggest you do)?  Well, visit your nearest Walmart to browse their line of products.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/rb-long-curly-hair-5-0809-de.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1712" title="rb-long-curly-hair-5-0809-de" src="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/rb-long-curly-hair-5-0809-de-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>We know many curly girls suffer from dry hair. With all the products we use on a daily basis it&#8217;s hard not stress out our locks. Here are 5 easy tips to squeeze into your daily routine to help heal dry hair.</p>
<p>1. Rinse with cold water. As much as you love your steamy showers, super hot temps can fry your hair. Cold water seals in the moisture you need.</p>
<p>2. Let loose while sleeping. Remove all elastics, clips, bobby pins, etc. Let your curls be free!</p>
<p>3. Take a break from heat tools. Give your hair a day off every now and then from the curling iron, blow dryer and flat iron.</p>
<p>4. Deep condition. This is no joke &#8211; deep condition as much as possible. You will truly see a difference in your hair&#8217;s health factor.</p>
<p>5. Work with second day hair. I admit, sometimes I wish I could wash my hair everyday. But doing this will really dry out your curls. Instead, discover how to work with second day hair. Maybe it&#8217;s wearing a headband. What about half-up, half-down? Or perhaps using a curl revitalizing spray. Figure out what works for you, on a night when you don&#8217;t have a hot date, and you&#8217;ll be much happier with your curls. Personally, a few spritzes of leave-in conditioner and some Pantene Pro-V Mousse for Curly Hair usually does the trick&#8230;but not always!</p>

<p style="text-align: left;">You know that feeling you get when you wear a brand new, sexy little dress, for a night on the town? That &#8220;I must look like a million bucks&#8221; feeling? Well, that&#8217;s how I felt the other night&#8230;.and guess what! I wasn&#8217;t wearing a new dress.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I was wearing one of L. Erickson&#8217;s new pieces from the <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/c/PalmBeachCollection/Palm+Beach+Collection.html" target="_blank">Palm Beach collection</a> from <a href=" http://www.franceluxe.com/">FranceLuxe.com</a>. In particular, the <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&amp;Store_Code=FL&amp;Product_Code=LI2559&amp;Category_Code=">Sunburst Barrette</a>. Let me start by saying this is one of the most beautiful hair accessories I&#8217;ve ever seen, and it is truly a statement piece. I can&#8217;t even tell you how many compliments I received from both men and women. It features a dazzling combination of floral design, bright happy colors, and matching crystals on a gold metal barrette. Perfect for big thick hair, I was out dancing all night and it barely moved. Plus, you know how barrettes can be really hard to close? I had no problems with the clasp at all.</p>
<p>The Sunburst Barrette is just one of many stunning pieces in L. Erickson&#8217;s Palm Beach Collection&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/LI2562Thumb144.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1684" title="LI2562Thumb144" src="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/LI2562Thumb144.jpg" alt="" width="86" height="86" /></a>These <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/pc/LI2562/PalmBeachCollection/index.html" target="_blank">Mini Jaws</a> are great to hold back small portions of hair&#8230;and cover up a bad hair day!  Adorable brightly colored butterfly, dotted with crystals, sits on top of a mini six pronged clip. Need a stronger hold? These <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/pc/LI2561/PalmBeachCollection/index.html" target="_blank">Double Pinch Jaws</a> will do the trick.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/LI2560Thumb144.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1685 alignleft" title="LI2560Thumb144" src="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/LI2560Thumb144.jpg" alt="" width="86" height="86" /></a>And then for a more elegant look, there&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/pc/LI2560/PalmBeachCollection/index.html" target="_blank">Palm Beach Long and Skinny Barrette</a>. You&#8217;ll truly be amazed by how much hair this barrette can hold back. You can do so much with this hair piece &#8211; for thin hair, use it to secure a french twist, and for thick hair, part hair on the side and pull back your front shorter layers. You can wear this piece during the day for a girls brunch, at night on a hot date or for a special event.</p>
<p>All of the hair accessories in the Palm Beach Collection come in the same colors &#8211; Pink, Aqua and Lime Green. Whether you have really dark or light hair, these hair pieces pop and won&#8217;t go unnoticed. So listen&#8230;don&#8217;t spend $100 on a new outfit! Instead, try one of these beautiful crystal hair pieces. The SunBurst Barrette is only $34, and it&#8217;s all you need to jazz up a simple dress. For more info or to purchase, visit <a href="http://www.franceluxe.com/c/PalmBeachCollection/Palm+Beach+Collection.html" target="_blank">FranceLuxe.com</a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1459" title="70" src="http://www.premiumgradehair.com/wp-content/uploads/70.png" alt="70" width="85" height="280" />For the past two days, my curls have been softer and more defined than ever before thanks to this new product I am testing &#8211; <a href="http://www.chazdean.com/products/sweet-almond-mint-cleansing-conditioner-32-oz">Wen&#8217;s Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner.</a> Seriously, when the bottle runs out, I may just cry (it&#8217;s a little pricey but totally worth it).</p>
<p>Developed by celebrity hairstylist Chaz Dean, Wen is both a cleanser and a conditioner in one. But please don&#8217;t compare it to your dad&#8217;s 2-in-1 Pert Plus. Wen is made with a balance of herbs and natural ingredients and avoids damaging detergents usually found in shampoos — so it won’t strip your hair and scalp of their natural oils.</p>
<p>You can add my name to the long list of Wen fans, which hails celebrities like Jennie Garth, Finola Hughes and Melissa Gilbert. Even Shecky’s awarded Wen the coveted“Beauty at Its Best Award” for Best Shampoo and Conditioner. One less step in the shower for better looking, more touchable hair? It&#8217;s a no-brainer.</p>

<p>C&#8217;mon Cosmo&#8230;really? There are so many other things you can use to hold your hair back in a bind! Like a rubber band, chopsticks, pen, pencil, garbage bag twistie tie, ipod headphones, camera strap, sunglasses&#8230;</p>
<p>But a thong! I don&#8217;t think so.</p>

Yesterday, I decided to give my hair a break from hair spray just to see what would happen.</p>
<p>I took this picture mid-day at work. My hair didn&#8217;t get frizzy, but definitely did not retain it&#8217;s curl like it normally does.</p>
<p>Hair spray can dry out your scalp and cause build-up. Unless you want to go cold turkey (like I attempted) to prevent this from happening, you should try a natural hair spray that contains gum arabic &#8211; a natural gum made from tree sap. Gum arabic is used in the food industry and it&#8217;s edible! It&#8217;s put in hair spray to give us ladies that extra hold!</p>
<p>Try giving Aubrey&#8217;s <a href="http://www.aubrey-organics.com/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=060">Natural Missst Herbal Hairspray</a> a chance if you&#8217;re looking for natural products.</p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;m a big fan of Aveda&#8217;a <a href="http://www.aveda.com/templates/products2/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY14956&amp;PRODUCT_ID=PROD7234">Air Control</a> which contain Flax seed, Jojoba, and Pine resin.</p>
<p>Have a hair spray that you love? Leave a comment and let us know!</p>

Hmmmm&#8230;.</p>
<p>The makers of BigSexyHair have a new line out called <a href="http://www.sexyhair.com/healthy.htm">HealthySexyHair </a>which I can&#8217;t wait to get my hands on! The products are made with soy proteins to reconstruct, moisturize and protect hair from environmental stresses.</p>
<p>One of the products is a <a href="http://www.sexyhair.com/sulfate-free_chocolate_soymilk_shampoo.htm">Sulfate-Free Chocolate Soy Milk Conditioner</a> which just sounds delicious! It&#8217;s made with Chamomile, Nettle, and Horsetail Extract. The fragrance? You guessed it&#8230;chocolate milk!</p>
<p>The HealthySexyHair brand also has a whole line of products made with Pumpkin. I especially want to try the <a href="http://www.sexyhair.com/pumpkin_puree.htm">Pumpkin Puree Treatment</a> which is made with Pro-Vitamin B, Pumpkin Fatty Acids, Wheat and Soy Proteins, and Aloe.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff00ff;"><strong>What a way to treat your tresses! </strong></span></p>
