Revlon ColorSilk

Great Color - have used it for years

I have been using ColorSilk for years. I'm a brunette so I can't speak to the blonde shades but my experience has always been good. I used the Brown Black for years then recently tried the Dark Mahogany Brown and like it even more. The Brown Black is REALLY dark so if you aren't looking for that don't use it. My hair is in good condition even after years of use. But conditioner after shampooing is always a good idea. I experience a slight color fade after a few shampoos which I really want since I use dark colors. I also use strong shampoos for dandruff and not the ones designed for colored hair. I recolor every 3 months, not because of the color but because my VERY gray roots grow out. I've tried to color only the roots but it just doesn't seem to work for me so I color all my hair and haven't experienced any problems. The creme color is thick enough that it doesn't drip and makes coloring easy. I read a few reviewers who said the color was uneven - that is not a problem of the product but of the person applying the color. As with any color product you must be sure to cover all your hair. My hair shines so much with the color, I just love it. And at $3 who wants to spend the cash just so another company can run adds on TV. Love this product. Most of my friends have gone all grey now, many saying it's just too much trouble to color. Well that's silly. For $12 and 4hours A YEAR I look YEARS younger than they do. There isn't a quicker way to look younger than getting rid of the gray. If you like gray hair fine, but don't blame it on the coloring process. Love Color Silk.

Scunci Salon Bobby Pins, Black

Back to basics and they work

These are old time basics and they work for so many things. Just pinning hair back when you are working or to create a different style. Couldn't live without them.

Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin

This is such a good idea !

Received these as a "stocking stuffer" for Christmas and thought they were so cool. They don't pinch or stick you and hold your hair. You have to play with them a little and they may not work with every style or length but I love them.

Goody Blow Dry Protect Brush

Great for blow drying you hair

After asking my stylist what would help me blow dry my new style she showed me a brush that looked very much like this one. When I was shopping afterwards I found this brush. It looks very much like her professional brush. It is Large 53 mm, with a Ceramic Smoothing Barrel and a Tangle Release button that lets you retract the bristles completely if your hair becomes tangled. It is lightweight and my hair dried quickly while I was using it. My only complaint is my own fault - the package states it is best for long hair - and after this new cut my hair is not long. However I am going for a smooth slightly underturned look and this helped to do that, so maybe I didn't make a mistake. The handle stayed cool during use and I have only good things to say. It does as it states. I purchased this at a grocery store for a little over $7 and thought that was a good price.
