Hair Color -SAMY - fat foam
nunzi182 3/11/2011 10:28:00 AM
This product not only dried my hair out really badly but didn't even deposit any color in my hair. I bought the Dark Brown and it LIGHTENED my roots somehow and didn't cover my grays at all. I wouldn't recommend this to an enemy. My hair hasn't been the same since I used this product last week. The ends are like straw. I even got a trim after dying it and it didn't help.

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Naked Palette
nunzi182 1/15/2011 8:31:00 AM
I love wearing warm colors, and this palette is exactly that. I'm fair, with brown hair, brown eyes. I haven't purchased Urban Decay in a really long time because of the excessive glitter and fallout. I don't experience that with any of the colors in the palette. I use it every single day and find that the colors are long lasting and apply very nicely.

Styling Products -TRESemme - Tres Two Ultra Fine Mist Hairspray
nunzi182 9/10/2010 8:57:00 AM
I've been on the hunt for a hairspray that won't leave me with that nasty "hairspray" smell. All the hairsprays I've tried leave me with dirty-smelling hair just minutes after I spray it on. This hairspray is different. It sprays on evenly and has a nice pleasant scent that doesn't "turn" on me. It holds my hair in place without making me feel like I have helmet head.

Hair -Cake Beauty - Satin Sugar
nunzi182 9/10/2010 8:54:00 AM
I really like this hair powder. I feel like I've tried them all and this is definitely one of the best ones. To avoid the powder from showing up in my hair, I just shake some into my hands and rub the powder into my roots/oily parts. I don't even have to brush it out doing it this way. It has a really nice sugary smell that's not overly sweet, it's very understated. I do find this a tad on the expensive side so I'm unsure if I'll purchase it. I may try to swap for it again though!

Styling Products -Redken - 15 Spray Starch Heat Memory Styler
nunzi182 9/7/2010 9:02:00 AM
I absolutely love this product! I've had it in my cabinet for awhile and hesitated trying it due to some of the negative reviews here for it. I wish I tried it sooner! I think the trick to using this is that you should spray it a few inches away from your hair so that you're kind of misting it on. With this, less is more for sure. My hair has never looked healthier after flat ironing. Usually the ends of my hair look fried right after ironing, but a few spritzes of this and it's smooth, sleek, and shiny. Not only that, but I find that using this, my roots don't get as oily as they normally do. As long as I'm flat ironing, I don't think I'll ever be without this stuff!

Loose Powders -Bare Escentuals - Mineral Veil spf 25
nunzi182 9/3/2010 9:33:00 AM
This product is pretty good at controlling oil for me. I know it's not intended for this purpose but it really controls my oilies. I usually have an issue with any face product that contains an SPF because it makes me extremely oily. This doesn't which is a huge bonus in my book.

Styling Products -Joico - Silk Result Straight Smoother

This product was just okay. It's always a bonus when a product doesn't make me too greasy but I didn't find that it smoothed my hair enough. I have rebellious curly hair that I straighten now because it's short, so easy straightening is a must!

Conditioner -Unlisted Brand - Naked Naturals Citrus Fortifying
nunzi182 9/3/2010 9:29:00 AM
I bought this to use after my Keratin Treatment since it's salt free. I haven't been disappointed with it for the most part. It doesn't make my scalp oily, which is very easy to do normally, but I don't find that it moisturizes my ends enough. They're not dry, they're just not as conditioned as I'd like. Overall a good shampoo and I will probably repurchase a different variety next time just to try it out.

Styling Products -Unlisted Brand - Marc Anthony- Simply Straight Lotion
nunzi182 9/3/2010 9:23:00 AM
I got this for $5 at Harmon, so the value was good, especially for the amount you get. I'm not sold on it yet. It's a plus in that it doesn't grease up my hair, which is very easy to do as I have really oily roots. It smells nice, I just wish it defrizzed a bit better.

Gels/Soaps -Bath and Body Works - Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin Shower Gel
nunzi182 9/3/2010 9:20:00 AM
I normally don't like BBW scents as they're too strong and overpowering but I really like this scent. I've tried many from them and this is my favorite. It's moisturizing and dries down to a nice fall scent.

Treatments -Sebastian - Sebastian Penetraitt
nunzi182 9/3/2010 9:13:00 AM
I've never had a hair product that did what it was supposed to do on the first try until I tried Penetraitt. Someone on the hair board suggested this for my dry, coarse ends and it smoothed them down after just using it once! They're not 100% better just yet, but I can tell such a difference after just one use, it's amazing stuff. I actually LOVE the smell of it too. I don't think I'll ever be without this stuff.

Hair -Matrix - Biolage Scalpthérapie Oil Control Treatment
nunzi182 6/22/2010 9:32:00 AM
I can't believe this product has gotten such bad reviews. I LOVE it. I got it really cheap on eBay and this works so much better than any dry shampoo I've tried because it doesn't leave a thick powdery coating. I've been using this for months now. I'm the type of person that has smelly, oily hair by day two, but I'm currently on my FOURTH day with the use of this. The trick to this is to just spray it lightly in your hair, about six inches away from the roots. I never spray so much that my hair is wet, I think that's where people are going wrong. This morning, I sprayed just a tiny bit of this in, then a smidgen of dry shampoo and voila, my hair looks and smells really good. I've never been able to go this long in all my life. I will never be without this.

Treatments -Aphogee - Two-Step Protein Treatment (formerly Treatment for Damaged Hair)
nunzi182 6/11/2010 4:00:00 PM
I have HUGE raves for this product. My hair was ruined by a perm two weeks ago by a new stylist. It was damaged, frizzy, not retaining curly and breaking. I went to my regular stylist and she trimmed it and I made an appointment for a BKT (Brazilian Keratin Treatment). It came time to do the treatment and my hair was too damaged for it. I was stuck with hair out to there that was still dry and damaged looking. I did an Aphogee treatment last night and it's like my hair has been completely transformed. It's much more manageable and the chemical smell of the perm even dissipated a little bit. I don't think I left it on long enough and it still made a huge difference in my hair. As for the smell that other reviewers mention; it really isn't that bad. It goes away and is kind of nice after awhile.
