Liza's Hair Guide for Spring 2011

Now that winter is practically over and we are heading into spring, I thought it was the perfect time to do a hair care post. Most of our tresses are dull and damaged from the horrible winter wind and below freezing temps... time to change that! I am SO ready for everything and anything spring and looking at some of my favorite hairstyles and hair products totally got me in the mood! Below I made a collage of some of my favorite do's for the upcoming season, as well as a little guide of some of my personal favorite hair care products and tools. Hope you guys enjoy! Oh and click on this link make it better to check out an article my sister, Jenny, recently wrote for "make it better" magazine on her favorite at- home hair protectants! XO, Liza

Kerastase Nectar Thermique, $37

My hair stylist, Amy recently recommended this product to me and so far, I have been loving it! Since I use a lot of heat on my hair when I style it, this not only moisturizes it, but helps protects my strands from all the excessive blow drying and flat ironing I end up doing. Kerastase truly makes the best hair care products out there. No doubt!

ghd Gold Professional 1" Styler, $225

If you are in the market for a new flat iron, I highly suggest you try this one out. Not only is it nice and lightweight, but it moves easily through the hair without getting caught like other styling tools. Oh and did I mention that it shuts off after 30 minutes if you are not using it? What a bonus! I always used to worry about not turning my flat iron off when I left my apartment... Now I never have to think about it! 

T3 Featherweight Hair Dryer, $200

My sister first got this hair dryer and right when I tried it, I knew I HAD to have it. There is nothing more annoying that standing around and drying your hair for what seems like forever, but with the T3 Featherweight, you are literally done in a few minutes... no joke. It also makes your hair feel beyond smooth and soft. No frizz whatsoever.

Aquage Beyond Shine Spray, $15.99

This spray ultimately adds that shine you are always lusting for after styling your hair. People at the salons swear by it. Aquage Beyond Shine also creates a humidity-resistant barrier so your hair won't poof when it's muggy outside.

Davines Shampoo and Conditioner, $18-20

Last but not least, I thought I'd throw in my favorite brand of shampoos and conditioners. Yes they are on the pricey side, but they are honestly the best. A few years ago, I was getting frustrated, as my usual shampoos and conditioners were making me break out. I started using these though and that all went away. This Italian brand of hair care comes in a variety of different formulas. My fave is the Momo, which contains arugula extract for dry hair.
