Cowgirl Critiques

Now if any of you read my other blog, I’m sure you have heard me mention that I am a hair freak.  I love for my hair to be soft, shiny, and tangle free and I don’t mind paying “designer” prices for it to have that feel either.  Well guess what, you don’t have to pay those high prices because the new Suave Professionals totally rocks!  I’m not just saying that either.  I’m very particular when it comes to my hair people so I’ll admit, I was reluctant to try this at first.  I’m EXTREMELY glad I did because I absolutely love the results.

Here’s a pic and list of what I recently received for review:

• Travel size Suave Naturals Tropical Paradise invisible solid Deodorant.
• Full size Suave Professionals color care Shampoo & Conditioner for protecting color treated hair.
• Full size Suave Professionals Sleek Shampoo & Conditioner for smoothing dry or frizzy hair.
• Full size Suave Professionals Vibrant Shine Shampoo & Conditioner for restoring shine for normal to dry hair.
• Full size Suave Professionals Extra Hold Styling Foam.
• Full size Suave Professionals Extra Hold Shaping & Finishing Spray. 
  

  Suave Hair Care

My views on the Vibrant Shine Suave Shampoo and Conditioner ’cause these are the ones I’ve tried so far.

TEXTURE:

Not as thick as some that I have seen but that doesn’t matter.

SMELL:

It reminded me of when you go to the salon to get your hair done and they wash it with whatever they use and it has that oh-so-good smell!  LOVE IT!

Shampoo:

Lathers good.  Shampoos that I’ve tried in the past make my hair feel rough and thick after shampooing it but this felt silky the whole time I was washing and rinsing it.  Gosh..it was so nice!

Conditioner:

This is a stickler for me.  I have to have AWESOME conditioner for my horse like textured hair.  I left it on a couple of minutes and rinsed…….AWESOME conditioner folks!  I mean that straight from my heart.  Ask my mother….I never recommend conditioners unless I truly believe in them.

Final Thoughts on views:

Normally I put some frizz serum in my hair after washing to keep give my hair the soft and shiny feeling.  Well guess what?  I didn’t have to this time.  I let dry without putting anything in it and it was sooooo soft, shiny, AND tangle free.  I’m telling you, I recommend it to all!  *cough*..it’s not like the Suave in the old days;)*cough*  Oh, and I had no frizz thanks to the Suave Styling Foam.   The hairspray worked wonders too, even in the Texas humidity!

I’ve always used Suave deodorant so I was happy to sample the deodorant (not pictured).  I threw in my travel bag!  LOVE IT…no stickiness, no marks, kept me dry.

Thumbs up for making the same old product new again.  Recommended!

Help Your Hair Survive the Summer in Style with Tips & Tricks from Suave® Celebrity Hairstylist Luke O’Connor

Shine Through Summer

Chlorine from the pool can quickly turn hair dry and dull. Look for hair products specially-designed to infuse shine. Also, blow dry hair from roots to ends, making sure you do not ruffle your hair. By doing this, you’ll keep the cuticle of your hair lying flat, thus reflect more light, and producing more shine.

How to get the Shine: Suave Vibrant Shine Shampoo and Conditioner is formulated with silk amino acids to restore shine and luster to dull hair for bright, shimmering strands.
Price/Availability: $1.92 – 2.49 at drugstores, mass merchandisers, and supermarkets nationwide

Don’t Let Your Hair Fall when Temps Rise!

Hot summer weather and humidity can cause your hair to lose its shape. Apply a little mousse to damp hair to add body and help control your style. For added fullness, flip your head over and blow dry the roots. When you flip your head upright, your hair will be at maximum volume.

How to get the Shape: Suave Professionals Extra Hold Mousse helps to lock in style for all-day hold and is great for hair that needs body and control.
Price/Availability: $1.92 – 2.49 at drugstores, mass merchandisers, and supermarkets nationwide

Hold That Look

Heat and humidity can be tough to battle, and here’s where the right hairspray comes to the rescue. To keep a soft, full, long lasting look, use an extra hold hairspray and keep the can 8-10 inches away from your head while spraying all over. This allows the fine mist of spray to penetrate the roots and hold the hair in place.

How to get the Hold: Suave Professionals Extra Hold Hairspray helps to lock in style for all-day hold and helps to control fly-aways.
Price/Availability: $1.92 – 2.49 at drugstores, mass merchandisers, and supermarkets nationwide

Make Summer Styling Smooth Sailing

Frizzies and fly-aways suddenly appear during the summer months with humidity at an all-time high. Achieving frizz-free hair starts in the shower with a shampoo and conditioner specially formulated to fight frizz. When blow drying hair, again be sure to blow dry from roots to ends to smooth the cuticle.

How to get rid of Frizz: Suave Professionals Sleek Shampoo and Conditioner moisturizes and smoothes curly, frizzy or dry hair leaving it looking salon-smooth and healthy.
Price/Availability: $1.92 – 2.49 at drugstores, mass merchandisers, and supermarkets nationwide

Fight the Fade

Have color-treated hair? Lock in your color and keep hair healthy during the summer by protecting your hair with products designed to fight the elements, such as color-protecting shampoos, waterproof gels, and UV protectors.

How to fight the Fade: Suave Professionals Color Care Shampoo and Conditioner has a gentle formula that nourishes and defends hair against harsh environmental elements and helps protect color from fading.
Price/Availability: $1.92 – 2.49 at drugstores, mass merchandisers, and supermarkets nationwide
