Gossip Girl’s, Leighton Meester has just been named Herbal Essences global ambassador. If you ask us, it was only a matter a time before someone snagged the fashion forward beauty for a hair endorsement role. She’s known to take risks and try new things with her hair.

We hear that apparently Leighton was turned onto the brand by her own personal stylist, Charles Baker Strahan, who is also a celebrity stylist for Herbal Essences.

Leighton told WWD, “I would need Tousle Me Softly. That is one of my favorite products and it’s really a look that I love since my hair is stick straight.”

This Coral Gables salon is offering professional Kerafusion Keratin Treatments by de Fabulous for $150 to new and existing clients for one month only (March 12 through April 12, 2010). Recommended for colored, bleached, highlighted, dry and even damaged hair, the Kerafusion Keratin Treatment dramatically improves hair texture for head turning locks.
