Your hair has taken some real abuse over this real summer heat and summer fun in the sun. What have you experienced this go round?First things first – you’ve got to get your hair deep conditioned with a steam, herbal, crème bath conditioning treatment. Re-shape that cut you received for the summer or get the latest fall hair cut – a rounded, style flip or medium feather/chopped layers with soft bangs.

Texture Beauty Lounge News Brief – July 2005

Textured Girl

On this beautiful, sunny, July afternoon, all I can think of -
is relaxing on the beach, and the cool breeze of the Caribbean Ocean.

While on this beach, I am spritzing my hair and skin with TAI Texture LavenderMist,
a refreshing and revitalizing mist that conditions the hair and soothes and calms the skin.
That's just it- the latest vision. TAI Texture launches September, 2005.
You'll be able to purchase TAI Texture in two more, short months for your
fall /resort vacations. So, if you're island hopping now, you'll definitely want to
maintain a quick and easy style for the remaining summer months ahead.

What's the quickest way to maintain your coif for the rest of the hot summer months?
There are three quick steps and a very simple regimen to keep your mane easy and free for all textures.

Natural Textured Girls with wavy or curly hair can try my favorite summer formula-
*Spray on Jane Carter's Solution - Revitalize Leave-in Conditioner -comb through with a wide tooth comb *Apply two pumps of Wrap & Roll, then crunch those curls.
*Apply a dime-amount of Nourish & Shine. That's it -long lasting curly hair.

Texturized or Relaxed Girls. I have an easy ponytail style for you.
Purchase a human hair- straight or wavy ponytail hair piece -comb/tie attachment.

*Mist your hair with Revitalize Leave -in Conditioner, to help with those little fly-aways. Give it a slight tap w/a flat iron or just let dry
*Apply a pea size amount of Nourish & Shine
*Brush Hair back or create a side part -with a soft bristle brush, then secure with a cloth or coated elastic band. *Attach your hair piece and prance on your way.

Purchase Jane Carter's Solution on http://www.naturallycurly.com/ And check out the July, 2005 column, Ask the Experts? by moi -on Naturally Curly.com
