Hey dolls, BeautyStat’s resident ‘Curl Gurl’ with HAIR TO SHARE is back! My mane and I needed a much needed break, so I’ve been testing my hair on both coasts (diehard LA/NY gal over here). Hands down, this NYC heat and humidity has made me go in to hiding, but I just had to emerge (can’t rock a bun forever!). A little over a month ago, I received more hair goodies, so let the reviews begin!
Urban Therapy reintroduced their Twisted Sista collection, featuring a new look, new ingredients and 3 …

When the summertime heat and humidity hits the last thing on our minds is styling our hair. What’s the point? It just falls flat and doesn’t hold any style, so, we resort to just throwing our hair up in a effortless bun and go on about our business. This summer, let’s beat the heat and not let the humidity compensate our desire to rock some beautiful, lush and carefree summer hair styles. Whether you have fine, thick or curly hair, BeautyStat has the answers to keeping your tresses in pristine …

The hair styles this season on the runway were elegant, modern and cool; however, some hair trends dropped the elegance and were more of a modern day interpretation of  too-cool-for-school attitude. Designers and  hairstylists took these looks beyond the norm and turned the hair into works of art.
 

Two styles that were described as “primal” and “jurassic” were created at Katie Gallagher and Ann Yee. Both these styles had the fohawk look but differed in their finish. At Katie Gallagher, the fohawk was created with a French twist that carried an …

The mere mention of John Frieda’s name brings a smile to my face. I grew up with John Frieda products and have respected him as the god of getting rid of frizz for most of my adult life. I remember my first bottle of Frizz-Ease back in high school; it worked wonders then, so I was psyched to see what the product could do for my hair now.
Frizz-Ease Sheer Solution (around $9.99) promises to fight frizz from the outside while hydrating hair from the inside. It does have a warning …

Being a New Jersey native, I really thought my big, frizzy hair was just a way of life. It was poufy and had way too much body—something I always blamed on humidity, heredity and occasionally even my blow dryer.

Then, I heard about Yuko’s brand new Anti-Frizz Treatment and it was like hearing angels sing!  Yuko, the experts in Japanese hair straightening, recently came out with an innovative anti-frizz treatment which promises to make hair more manageable and healthy while minimizing the frizz-factor.  Even better?  It doesn’t contain any of …

Did you ever see those salon commercials where the woman’s hair is so shiny, you are just green with envy?  Well, I have and I was determined to find a product that gave my hair that incredible shine.  I might not be a salon model, but my hair was going to look as good as one!

I think I found that product with Beverly Hills Be Inspired Shine & Repair Serum with Argan Oil.
I wasn’t familiar with Argan oil so I looked it up.  Wikipedia defines Argan oil as an oil …

We’ve been fans of Morrocanoil products since they first launched.  In fact, when they launched their Light version, we reviewed it for Allure magazine here.

So when the company launched the new Moroccanoil Curl Defining Mousse, our new writer Deanna,  jumped at the opportunity to test drive it.
I was looking for a product that I could put in my hair and just let it air dry, naturally, Deanna says.    Of course, I wanted the result to be great looking hair.
I had a very positive first impression.  The bottle was large …

Frizz, flyaways, static, brittleness, and lackluster strands accompany dry, cold weather. While we can’t control the climate, we can combat winter hair complaints with these expert fixes.
 

Winter is brutal on our hair. While gusting winds and frigid temps outside whip our tresses into a flyaway mess, the desert-like conditions inside our home and office do even more harm. “It’s indoor heating that really dries out the hair and weakens the hair cuticle,” says cosmetic chemist and BeautyStat.com founder Ron Robinson. “Without that protective barrier, hair fibers peel and break.”
