My best hair find

By Marcia Schwarz Perel

People that know me are aware that I love to change my hair. May it be color or style, I am obsessed about finding the next best thing.

Lately, I have been coloring my hair by myself and getting tons of compliments about it. I believe that a great hair professional will share his or hers knowledge in order to keep a customer happy. My hairdresser from Curitiba, Ivaldo Lima, never hesitated to tell me what best hair color would be good for me or what brand. Since traveling from NY to Curitiba just to color my hair is an impossible task, I have decided to take Ivaldo's advice and do it on my own. I was basically unable to find a professional that would deliver satisfying results and avoid frying my hair every time it would get colored. Coloring at home requires products that will help your hair to live up to the expectation of a professional result.

Thanks to Ivaldo's advice, I started using Kerastase products. I swore by them. Yes they are pricey, but if great products would all be cheap, EVERYBODY would have great hair. After a while, Kerastase discontinued my beloved Cement line and I was not seeing some many benefits anymore.
After spending an afternoon sick in bed reading beauty blogs, I came across Living Proof.

I started using the Living Proof no frizz spray, a sample I got from my local Sephora store. Cheaper than a Kerastase leave in, delivering results that shocked me, I decided to purchase the product, along with the PHD ( Perfect Hair Day) leave in cream.

After washing my hair, with it still damp, I apply both products. The drying time is reduced by 80%, my hair is soft, hydrated and frizz free. Living Proof products are silicone free and animal cruelty free. Check out their web site for cool promotions. you will not regret it.
