Amazon Beauty Presents Rahua Hair Products

Amazon Beauty has created a wonderful hair product line called Rahua made with rain forest grown organic ingredients.

The key ingredients in this unique haircare, according to the Amazon Beauty website, “include Rahua® Elixir which instantly repairs damaged hair and speeds hair growth and Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens), a centuries old calming ingredient from aged “holy wood” that imparts an amazingly beautiful aroma and is traditionally used in Shaman ceremonies.” And boy does it smell good!

Amazon Beauty Rahua® Organic Shampoo ($32.00 9.3 oz) and Rahua® Organic Conditioner ($34.00 9.3 oz) are a wonderful duo to help dried out hair become soft and managable again. The products are safe and claim to strengthen color-treated and delicate hair. I like to wash with the shampoo then apply the very thick conditioner and leave it on in the bath or shower for a few minutes. When I rinse it out, my hair is noticeably smoother.

H2pro Silk 1-Minute Thermal Hair Treatment

Is your hair getting frazzled by this summer’s heat and humidity? I know mine is!

H2pro Silk 1-Minute Thermal Hair Treatment ($13.00) is touted to bring a 1-minute hair treatment to revitalize your hair and protect it from heat as you style. It is infused with jojoba hydrolyzing crystals to hydrate as well as protect hair from heat.

To use this product, apply a little bit on towel dried hair, mostly through the ends. Then use a comb to distribute the product evenly. Leave in for 1 minute and style as usual.

This cream smells great and seems to give my hair body and manageability. I don’t really feel the hydration, and I still have to use a little shine serum afterwards. What I do notice is a difference in the volume and bounciness of my hair.

Hair Rules Nourishment Leave In Conditioner

Hair Rules creates hair products for different hair textures. The main 3 categories that they cater to are kinky, curly and wavy hair. My hair is naturally wavy and gets very frizzy in the summer.

That’s why Hair Rules Nourishment Leave In Conditioner ($20.00 8oz) is a great product for me. Actually it’s great for all hair types that need a little frizz control in the summer. Humidity causes frizz is because moisture in the air is attracted to dry hair which soaks it up like a sponge and then swells. If your hair is hydrated, the moisture in the air doesn’t bother it as much.

Nourishment contains extracts of honey, ginger root, lemon and gardenia and is lightweight for the springiest curls and softest waves. It also smells fantastic.

It can be used in place of regular conditioner or as an extra bit of moisture. That’s how I use it. Apply a dollop to wet or damp hair.

Get your Hair Ready to Rock with TIGI Rockaholic Collection!

TIGI is such a fun and original hair care line. The brand is always introducing new types of products that I haven’t seen before.

I love the TIGI Rockaholic line for when I want a fun going-out look. The three products I have tried are convenient and really allow your hair to “rock out”. They are:

All Access Go Anywhere Shampoo Bar ($9.95 3.5oz) — This is a very cool invention. This bar looks like body soap, but lathers and washes like shampoo! It contains a syndal soap base, which is a mild but effective cleanser. With sage leaf extract, sandalwood oil, henna oil and vitamin E to moisturise, this is an all-in-one product. If your hair is very dry, add a leave in conditioner after you shower. The scent is spicy, but not too overpowering. This is good for men as well as women.

Need a product to keep your spikes or mohawk in place? Way Out Super Hair Glue ($15.95 5.07 oz) holds extreme looks in place without flaking. Formulated with vinyl caprolactam for hold, caffeine for volume, corn starch for structure, ginger root for body and glycerin for shine, this glue will stay in place until you remove it!

Groupie Texturizing Spray Pomade ($15.95 8.45 oz) will separate hair and texturize for sexy styles. The main ingredients are a trio of rosemary, basil and mint to create moisture and shine while keeping the style in place. The scent in invigorating as well! My 13 year old daughter has taken it from me, because she loves it so much! The girl has style!

These products are fun for everyday unique styling or night-out adventures. Visit a salon or beauty supply store near you and check out the website at http://www.tigihaircare.us/.

New York Streets Hair Culture Collection

New York Streets is a hair care company that believes in “freedom of style, individuality and self expression. This culture does not follow trends, it inspires them, influencing the fashions of tomorrow.”

This is a cool concept, but what does it mean? Well the website claims that the products are formulated to rebuild, repair and perform under extreme humid condition and is color-safe and provides UV protection.

The products I’ve tried are (as described by the website):

Clean ($15.00 USD) — A daily nourishing cleanser derived from Palm Kernal and Coconut Oil. Panthenol, Wheat Amino Acids and Hydrolyzed Barley Protein increase moisture retention, balance pH and protect color and minimizes fading. Glycolic Acid exfoliates and stimulates blood flow promoting healthy hair growth.

Condition ($17.00 USD) –Hydrolyzed Silk Proteins and Wheat Amino Acids hydrate the hair and scalp. Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Polyfix Complex helps repair split ends. Hydrolyzed barley proteins and special polymers reduce frizz and promote shine.

Hairspray ($19.00 USD) — Hold, Style & Finish! Repairs split ends while giving medium to firm hold and under high humidity, fast drying spray that allows you to control the hold, imparts sheen while protecting against damaging UV free-radicals and is the perfect finish for any style.

This is a great basic hair care trio. The scent is mild, but pretty. What I really like is that it does what it says; my hair is less frizzy (in the humid Kansas City summer) when I use it, which is awesome! It is very hard for me to find products that actually reduce the frizz, but by using the shampoo, leaving the conditioner in my hair a few minutes before I rinse, then using the flexible hold hairspray, my hair looks fairly smooth. And if I add an anti-frizz serum before drying, my hair is virtually frizz free!

TIGI Bed Head Some Like It Hot

TIGI’s Bed Head summer hair care collection, Some Like It Hot, was created to keep hair healthy and frizz free in the Summer. These products make your hair so soft and shiny that you will want to use them year round! They are:

Heat & Humidity Resistant Sulfate-free Shampoo to Smooth and Soothe ($16.95 USD) — This shampoo contains a blend of avocado, grape, aloe and cucumber oils to form a barrier on the hair and beat humidity, UV rays and thermal damage. The scent is Sun-Kissed Citrus, which is soft and subtle. This shampoo is very thick and creamy and smooths my hair instantly.

Heat & Humidity Resistant Conditioner to Smooth and Soothe ($16.95 USD) — With the same basic ingredients of the shampoo, this richer, thicker cream helps to smooth down the cuticle of the hair to keep it shiny all day. It’s scent is Shimmering Starfruit, which is light and refreshing. I like to comb this through my hair in the shower and keep it on for a few minutes. This makes my Kansas City-frizzy hair much smoother.

Apply to towel dried hair and style as usual. The apricot, sunflower and olive oils will help keep the frizzies away!
