Creating Wavy Hair With a Flat Iron – Fast and Easy!

  • Posted on August 25, 2009 at 5:36 pm

So people always think that flat irons are used for straightening your hair, however Flat Irons are actually a multi-purpose tool that can be used to help you create those amazing waves too.

Using your flat iron to create wavey hair is actually very easy to do and once you get the hang of it you’ll be able to turn your straight hair into wavey hair in no time at all.

Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium 1 Hair Iron

Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium 1 Hair Iron

The first thing to do is to heat your iron, our preferred Hair Iron for doing this is the Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Flat Iron as it has ceramic plates to help with your hair, heats quickly and helps to prevent frizz.

While your iron heats up, blow out your hair so that it is dry enough for you to style.  You may also want to use MoroccanOil or another repair product when using heated styling products to help protect your hair from damage.

When you have your hair dried and ready for styling, start with the front of your hair at the top and take your heated flat iron down your hair while flipping it at 180 degree turns.  This creates nice waves in your hair.  Work your hair around from the front to the back of your hair and when doing the back, you may want to set up a second mirror when you are first learning how to create waves so that you can see what you are doing.  When you have more practice, doing the back of your hair will become second nature for you and you’ll just know when it is done and matches he waves in the front of your hair.

Now if you want stronger waves and you weren’t able to get them on your first time around your hair.  Don’t keep doing the same strands over and over again.  What you should do so you cause less damage to your hair and get better style is to let the strand cool off and move on to the next section of your hair then once the original strands have cooled down, go back to them and begin the process of working your hair from top to bottom flipping the iron at 180 degree turns and your hair will begin to get those gorgeous waves back in your hair so that you can have gorgeous wavy hair like you see in hair commercials and when the actresses walk the red carpet.

Now, some other things you can do to enhance the look of your new wavey hair include using a hair oil afterwards like MoroccanOil which not only helps to repair damage, but also add in shine and health, (To use MoroccanOil Oil Treatment, pour a drop into your hands and rub it together in your palms then run it through your hair from top to bottom and let it stay there, do not rinse it out), or use a styling poduct like any of the Mousses or Volumizing products from Alterna Hemp to hold your hair from deflating and add in a natural shine from the Hemp Seed Oils that are in the Alterna Hemp Line.

Using Flat Irons to create healthy looking and shiney wavey hair is simple and easy and if you use an iron like the Babyliss Pro Nano 1 Flat Iron, you’ll also see how fast and simple it really is.

Is there such thing as a miracle hair cure?

  • Posted on August 14, 2009 at 12:42 am

So you always hear about snake oil, heck look at the Wizard of Oz who was one of the biggest snake oil salesmen in the world.  He even used his charm to scam the next world he fell into.  You always read about a million products and things that sound too good to be true and usually they are.  Rarely do you get a product that you cannot live without and I am the person that usually falls for these deals.  Mainly on the infomercial product things, however I have found a few winners that I absolutely swear by and cannot live without like my George Foreman Grill.  That thing is incredible.  Another product that I am obsessed with and wouldn’t know what to do without is my automatic kitty litter box cleaner that does not scare the cat.  The thing works like a charm and I don’t ever have a mess.  As for beauty products though I am a lot more skeptical because not everything will work or feel as good as my Mario Badescu Cucumber Tonic Mask (I cannot live without this and I think we are going to try and start to carry their line so hold tight) however I have been looking at reviews and ratings on one product in particular and figured it is time to finally find out for myself if this product is worth its weight in gold or not and sure enough I finally found another product that lives up to what it is supposed to do.  It is the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment for your hair.

MoroccanOil Oil Treatment

MoroccanOil Oil Treatment

So I read about the product a  bit and it is infused with Argan Oil which when broken down is rich with Saturated Fatty Acids and Vitamin E which are both amazing for your hair and even your nails and because of the Argan Oil and the other ingredients in the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment, the compounds should and in my opinion do actually help to make your hair look and feel better and healther.  It also did help to add shine to my hair which is already fairly shiny since I don’t overstyle or color my hair much anymore.  The part that I was most impressed with though was that this formula wasn’t actually greasy or oily like most of the hair oils I have seen.  I actually really enjoyed using this product.  It was also really easy to use.

All you do is take a small bit of the oil and rub it into your palms then rub it into your hair from scalp to tip of your hair and don’t worry if you don’t have the same hair type as me.  MoroccanOil Oil Treatment is actually formulated for all hair types.

The crazy thing about this product is that it was good all around for me.  It made my hair shiny, it didn’t weigh it down, it smelled nice, it was easy to use and there wasn’t really any clean up and overall my hair does look and feel much healthier.  I am starting to see why Women in Morocco have been using Argan Oil for centuries as a way to repair their hair and nails and am also seeing why so many people around the world are now using MoroccanOil Oil Treatment, especially in Salons and by Women who keep up with new products and technologies.

I give Moroccan Oil a 9 out of 10 and definitely recommend it to you all.  It is one of those products that does actually add instant results and a healthy look and shine to your hair, at least when I used it on mine, so I definitely do recommend this product to you all.  I also read a lot of reviews and it seems like this is the same result for many people across the board.  Also, if price is the issue for you when you visit a salon or retailer, don’t worry about that because we actually have this product on sale all the time so you don’t have to spend a ton of money to get to try the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment.

Buy MoroccanOil Oil Treatment on Sale today at Haircare Discounters and then come back here and tell us about your experience or if you have used this product and just want to share anything good or bad, let us know on this post or on the product page.

Find Sebastian WET Sleek Hold Liquid Gel In Stock Here

  • Posted on August 13, 2009 at 12:37 am

Something that shocked me today was finding out that apparently Sebastian, one of the most fabulous product lines of hair products, has apparently decided to take one of their most popular products off of the market.  Whether this is true or not is one thing, but one thing is for sure, as of today we still have 6 pallets of Sebastian WET Sleek Hold Liquid Gel and if this product has been canceled we will definitely be picking up some more so we can have it in stock as long as possible for all of you.

Sebastian WET sleek hold liquid gel

Sebastian WET Sleek Hold Liquid Gel

So what makes this product so popular, well besides that it was created by Sebastian?

That is simple, most hair gels are just clumpy or not so smooth.  They leave your hair heavy and your hands sticky and your forehead and scalp dirty.  I know that when I used to use gel I hated the way it left my scalp feeling caked and heavy and when I would go out if it was a hot day, the gel would feel like it was melting and start running down my face.

I hated this feeling and it wasn’t until I stopped using gel because of the mess that it created that I ended up discovering Sebastian WET sleek hold liquid gel which if I would have found would have kept me using gel on my hair.  Now, sometimes I do use gel on my own hair if the style calls for it and the hair gel I reach for first is the Sebastian WET sleek hold liquid gel which is why I am in shock that this product has been rumored to be discontinued. However, since this rumor is out there, I am going to buy a few extra bottles of Sebastian WET sleek hold liquid gel for myself just in case, but don’t worry because when we checked out inventory after hearing this news we do have 6 pallets and will be looking for more to help keep Sebastian WET sleek hold liquid gel in stock so you can have it for a long time as well.

Another reason that people love the Sebsatian Wet Gel so much is that even though it is meant to be put on wet or damp hair, if you apply it and then brush it and blow dry it out, you’ll find that you can still get all of the benefits of this hair gel, but your hair will not have that sleek wet look and be able to move around a bit more and be able to hold it’s shape and still have some texture to it.

The holding power of Sebastian WET gel on both wet and dry hair is the main reason people love this product and this hold allows it to be versatile and work on many different hairstyles for both men and women and that is why I was in shock when I heard it may be discontinued.  So buy Sebastian WET Sleek Hold Liquid Gel today just in case this rumor is true.

Now suppose we would run out of this gel for some reason, there is another hair gel that I do like from Rusk and it is just as fabulous in that it is a weightless formula as well and can be used just as easily and is as versatile as the Sebastian WET Sleek Hold Liquid Gel.

Rusk Jel FX

Rusk Jel FX

Rusk Special FX Jel has the power to hold your hair just like the Sebastian Jel, except instead of being a light weight formula, Rusk is a weightless formula and has all of the same holding power and versatility of the Sebastian Gels.

Now, although I did say I only use the Sebastian Gel above, I secretly do love the Rusk gel just as much.  Both products are perfect and if for some reason the Sebastian gel is discontinued, the perfect substitute product is the Rusk Jel FX and I encourage you to buy a tube of it just to try and test it out so that if the Sebastian is discontinued you will be prepared with a back up hair gel that you will love just as much.

You can currently buy both the Sebastian Wet Gel and Rusk Jel FX on HaircareDiscounters.com and we encourage you to change them out and see how you can use both equally as well and they both hold and look just as fabulous as each other.

If Sebastian has discontinued this product, lets hope that they have an equally as fabulous new hair gel coming out but in case they do not, try the Rusk and we know that you will love this product just as much if not more.  So in case Sebastian has sold out of their wet gel, buy Rusk Jel FX Here.

Patriotic Nail Styles that you can do at home. Part 2.

  • Posted on August 12, 2009 at 10:57 pm

Ok, so Labor day is coming up soon and with the end of the three big American Summer Celebrations, The Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day, I wanted to put in one more post about how to some some fun and fabulous nail styles that will work great for your Picnic, Watching Fireworks and showing how much you love the USA.

To do these nails is very simple and you will only need a few things.

  • 1. Star Shaped Stickers
  • 2. Nail Polish (Red, White and Blue)
  • 3. Long straight stickers
  • 4. Time to put on a few layers of color.

So anyways, onto Patriotic Nail Styles to help you celebrate American Holidays (Memorial Day, The Fourth of July and Labor Day), part 2.

Got the blues for red nail polish

OPI Funny Bunny White Nail Polish

OPI Blue My Mind Blue Nail Polish

American Nails Style 1.

Now this is a very easy one to do and if you modify the steps a little bit you can even make it work for Puerto Rico or Texas by creating their flags and adding the blue nail polish in differently.

1.  Paint your nails all white by using the Funny Bunny Nail Polish to the left.

2.  Let your nails dry.

3.  Take out a star shaped sticker that fits on your nail and place one in the center of each nail.  (It doesn’t matter which color stickers you have as you are going to paint over them to get the shape).

4.  Now paint the top half of your nails blue and when they dry the bottom half red.  (The blue on the top is just a preference of mine, but you can flip them if you’d like).

5.  Now, to get a straight line, take the bottom half color or red nail polish and paint a line going horizontal so the top of the brush is half way up the nail and that way you don’t have any squiggles.  The other option is to use a star that is just as long as your nail is wide and only paint your nail to the horizontal line and you’ll get a perfect pattern for this design.

6.  Once these paint layers are dry, carefully remove the star sticker, you can use tweezers or your own nails, but be careful not to scratch the other colors, and when it is removed, you now have a white star American Flag nail design perfect for the American Summer Holidays like the Fourth of July, Memorial Day and Labor Day.

Patriotic American Nails Style 2.

1.  Take the long stickers and cut thin straight strips out of them that go just wider than your finger nail.

2. Cut out boxes that are half the width of your finger nails and cut ten of them.

3. Paint your nails with the blue nail polish from above.

4.  Let your nails dry.

5.  Take the boxes you cut and put them at the top left of the nails on your left hand and the top right on the nails on your right hand.  Don’t be afraid if they are over the top of your nails. You are trying to save a squared bottom of blue on your nails that goes to the top.

5.  Take the red or white nail polish from above and paint your nails a solid color.

4.  Let this layer dry.

5.  Take the long thin cut strips of stickers and place them across the width of your finger nails, so there is space between each. and the stripes actually go onto your fingers.  You can also do them vertically instead of horizontally if you would like.

6.  Take the last color and paint your nails with it.

7.  Let your nails dry.

Now, when you remove all of these stickers and all of the shapes you designed, all of the sudden you are going to have a blue box with red and white stripes below it which actually looks like the American Flag on each of your nails and nothing screams America more than the American flag, so celebrate the American holidays this year and next with these fabulous nails for patriotic holidays.

I love these American Flag Nails that are so easy you can do them at home by yourself and know that you will have as much fun as I do creating these American Flag Nails with your friends and daughters.

Also, don’t forget to search our blog for more ideas and designs that you can do at home as well as all of the fabulous hair, skin and nail products that you can find at HaircareDiscounters.com.

How to have straight shiny sexy hair.

  • Posted on August 4, 2009 at 1:28 am

A common question women have with their hair is how do I get it to go and stay straight?  The thing is that it isn’t just that simple, just because your hair is straight doesn’t mean it will have that gorgeous shine or that healthy look to it.  You also have to decide if you want thick straight hair, if you want it thin and laying down, how you would like to style it or what length you want, etc…  Getting your hair straight is only the first step and although it is sometimes the most difficult step, we are here to help you discover how to get straight hair and make it look healthy and full of life.

The first thing is to decide on the length of your hair so you can figure out if you are doing a Bob Cut a pixie style, long sexy hair or even shoulder length hair that you can pull back into a pony tail or wear down to your shoulders to show off a necklace or you can use your gorgeous newly straightened and shiney hair to show off a ring by putting your hand by your chin or along the gorgeous shine of your straight hair.

Soo anyways, onto how to have straight hair or how to straighten your hair.

The key to having straight hair and how to straighten your hair is not the technique, but finding out what products will work best on your hair type and how to do it without damaging your hair.  So although I cannot be there with each of you to see your hair and make a recommendation on how to straighten your hair, I am going to recommend some of the best products on the market for straightening your hair and then what to do to give it that gorgeous healthy shine and look.

Now, I’m going to do this by product line, but please feel free to mix and match or decide which works best for you and your budget so that you can style your hair to that straight hair style you have always wanted.

Using CHI products for hair straightening:

  • CHI Black Ceramic Straightening Hair Iron – I love the CHI straightening Irons because of their quick heating time and how easily these products work to work with you and create straight hairdos with ease.  CHI hair irons are amazing for straightening hair and I highly recommend either The Black CHI Ceramic Hair Iron or the Nano Iron if you have a little more to spend.
  • CHI Shine Infusion Spray – I love the CHI Shine Infusion Spray to use on your hair to create that shine after you have styled your hair.  CHI Shine Infusion Spray is one of those absolutely amazing products mainly because you always get that instant gratification with it.  However, don’t over use this product as too much of it could create a greasy look.
  • CHI Olive Silk Oil Treatment – The CHI Olive Silk Oil Treatment is a product for all hair types.  You can use it as a leave in oil treatment to help nourish your hair back to health after serious work has been done on it or after you use any hair damaging products like hair irons or coloring.  I do enjoy the CHI Olive Silk Oil Treatment and hope you do too,,,however it does not hold ground to one of the most fabulous hair oils out there, the MoroccanOil Oil Treatment,,,then again, nothing stands up to MoroccanOil Oil Treatment.

Babyliss Irons and Alterna Hair Products:

The Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium 1 1/4 inch Hair Straightening Iron -Much like the CHI pro nano hair iron is amazing.  You can easily use it to straighten your hair and it will work like a dream for you.

Alterna Hair Straightening Shampoo – Alterna is one of the hottest products amongst college students, people who like eco friendly hair products and people who enjoy products that actually work on your hair.  Try the Alterna Hair Straightening Shampoo and continue to keep that gorgeous straight hair look with the alterna hair straightening shampoo.

Alterna Hair Straightening Conditioner – The Alterna Conditioner for straight hair is a great product for those of you who want to actually take care of your straight hair and keep up your straight hair.  Combined with the Alterna Shampoo for Straight hair is a great way to keep your straight hair straight and properly treat straight hair.  Alterna is a hot product line and the Alterna Conditioner for Straight Hair is a perfect product for you to keep your hair straight.

Alterna Hemp Hair Straightening Balm – This is a really cool product from Alterna because it not only straightens and helps to keep your hair straight, but it is also part of their Hemp line and their color hold product line.  It not only keeps your hair straight, but it also works for color treated hair to help keep your color safe from harm and damage.  This is a must have if you color your hair and straighten it and since it is from Alterna, you know your hair is in good hands with the Alterna Hemp Straightening Balm for your color treated hair.

Are Bob Cuts the cuts of the Fall season?

  • Posted on July 23, 2009 at 11:39 pm

I’ve been searching around the web and reading a lot of fashion magazines lately and I keep noticing one thing this summer. More and more Bob haircuts are starting to show up in the photos with Actors, Actresses and Models and it is carrying over to American women of all ages.

I’m seeing women from their mid thirties to late forties wearing your traditional bob cut that lays flat and nice by your shoulders giving the classic bob look, as well as college and high school ages girls going from their short pixie styled hair cuts and morphing them into asymetrical bob hair cuts. We’re even seeing them come out in Movies like Speed Racer with Christina Ricci to Singers like Katie Perry and fashion Icons who have always sported them like Victoria Beckham.

Anyway you look at it, Bobs have been coming back big time since last year and this year you can barely turn around without another lady changing her hair style to some sort of bob, and who can blame them.  Bobs are fun, the move freely, if you have healthy hair, they shine (or you can use Sexy Hair Big Shine Spray to help it along), they can be cut asymmetrical and fun, or look classy and exotic. Bob haircuts can also be used to accent and frame your face.  You can tilt your hair and have one side highlighted while the other side has a gorgeous backdrop of your hair, you can pull one side behind your ear if your bob is a bit longer and you can even pull it forward and let the front ends curl up under or above your chin a bit to help frame that perfect face if you wear a shorter to mid sized bob.

Bob hair cuts are also a fantastic style because they are extremely easy to maintain.  Once you have it shaped and use the proper products a few days, you’ll start to notice that your hair will seem like it is starting to all of the sudden fall right back in to place.  Now that isn’t true for everyone, but if you wear it long enough and use the proper tools on it, your hair will seem like it naturally takes on the shape.  One thing though, make sure you choose the proper bob for your face.  I prefer to see shorter bobs on women with round faces, medium sized bobs on women who have more of the rectangle (bangs can sometimes look good with this too) and if you have the long ovular face, I recommend a longer bob for you.  This is just my opinion on what I think looks and works best, but hey we all have different thoughts on hair and the most important part about picking your style of bob and length is to do what makes you happy, makes you feel good and be proud to step outside and show your new hairstyle off to the world.

Now, some tools that I recommend to help create and either improve upon or maintain your bob include:

  • Babyliss Ceramic Hair Rollers and Setters – These help to form and shape your curls.
  • Big Sexy Hair Big Shine Spray – To add that gorgeous shine to your hair like you see in all the fashion magazines.
  • A Babyliss or CHI Hair Iron – To mold and shape or straighten parts of or all of your bob.
  • A spray or myst – To hold your hair in place so you don’t loose all the hard work you spent on making your Bob look perfect (I think my aunt used to use Moose on hers, but I have never needed to when I used to style a bob so try it if you want, but I never used Moose for this style).

And that’s pretty much it.

If you love Bob hair cuts as much as me and have been seeing them pop up all over the place, don’t miss the trend and be hip this fall when it looks like the Bob may seriously make another appearance….winter latest for women with darker hair ;-) .

How to have hair that holds up to Humidity.

  • Posted on July 15, 2009 at 11:42 pm

So the one question many women who suffer from frizzy hair have in their minds when traveling to somewhere that the humidity is absolutely horrible is, “What can I do to combat the frizz and hold my hair the way it should be held?”.   This question is a common one and a concern, especially when traveling, so we would like to help you solve this problem so that the next time you are off to the beach, tanning or relaxing by the lake, Living it up in the French Quarter of New Orleans or just having fun with family and friends, you will be able to focus on enjoying yourself and not wondering what is happening with your hair.

The first thing to think about is how you style your hair.  What types of products are you using and are they effective enough to last all day long?  You also have to remember that when you travel, space is limited so your hair products and appliances have to be compact enough to fit in your suitcase or bags and still be enough to get you through the day and night.  This is where we come in to help you not only keep your do looking fabulous, but also help to keep you with enough space in your suitcase so that you can fit your gear and still have some room for souveniers.

So anyways, on to the purpose of this entry:

How to have hair that holds up to Humidity.

The first thing we recommend for people with frizzy and troubled is to pick the proper appliances and products that you will need to not only fit in your suitcase, but to be able to style your hair quick and keep the look all day.  Here are our product recommendations for keeping the frizz out of your hair and all the fun with your family and friends, not fudging with folical fix-ups.

1.  A hair appliance that is not only compact, but effective and versatile.

Two products that we love are the:

CHI Nano Ceramic Hairstyling Iron 1

CHI Nano Ceramic Hairstyling Iron 1"


Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Concave/Convex Hair Iron

Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Concave/Convex Hair Iron

These two irons are absolutely perfect for a person who suffers from frizzy hair when they hit an area that has humidity.  These are quick heating irons that easily straighten your hair or if you use them for styling, can leave you with the curls you are looking for.  Both the light blue 1″ CHI Nano Ceramic hair iron and the Babyliss Pro Nano Titanium Concave/Convex Irons are versatile enough to straighten hair, style hair for curls, waves or even form your hair into bobs and because of the technology behind them and materials used in them to treat your hair, they heat in an instant and help to keep and hold your hair in place longer and help to prevent frizzing or styles coming undone from humidity.  The CHI Nano Hair Iron and Babyliss Pro Nano Hair Iron are also both compact enough that they should easily be able to fit in your suitcase so that you can take them with you on your trip and not have to worry about an extra bag or schleping them on the plane as a carry on item.

2.  Hairsetters and Rollers.

So now that we have appliances ready for you to use to create a long lasting do that will start fighting frizzy hair because of humidity, it is time for a complimentary product to the Irons so that you can set your hair properly.  This is where Babyliss comes back into play.

Babyliss BABCHV14 - Pro Ceramic 12 Roller Hairsetter

Babyliss BABCHV14 - Pro Ceramic 12 Roller Hairsetter

Babyliss has one of the most popular hair setters on the market. They are the Babyliss Pro Ceramic Roller Hairsetters and boy do they do the job.  They use a special technology combined with the materials used on the actual rollers to not only heat at an instant, but help style and set your hair without causing the damage that inferior rollers and setters cause.  By starting your do with these ceramic rollers from Babyliss and then using the irons for shaping and curl reduction, you are on your way to a full fledged fabulous hairdo that can start to stand up to humidity and protect you from frizzy hair.

Now, the Babyliss Ceramc Hair Roller or Hairsetter kit is a bit bulky which is why I recommended it after the irons which could create the same curls (just take a bit longer), but if you have the room in your suitcase, pack these bad boys up and you’ll be on your way to a frizz free day of fun in no time.

3.  Now the final touch, a product that allows for movement and bounce, but also keeps your hair under control and not looking greasy or clumpy.

Sebastian Pro Shaper Plus Hair Spray

Sebastian Pro Shaper Plus Hair Spray

This is one of the secret weapons I recommend to ladies, and gentlemen, who have frizz issues when it comes to heat and humidity.  It is a life saving spray that you absolutely cannot live without.  It is the famous Sebastian Pro Shaper Plus Hairspray and it is defined for this exact type of issue.  How do you control frizzy hair in humidity or in general.

The Sebastian brand of hair products saw this issue and came up with this magnificant forumla to help in this situation.  They invented a hairspray that was made to stand up to heavy humidity and keep your hair in place.  As with many of the other Hairsprays by Sebastian, Sebastian Pro Shaper Plus Hairspray is properly named shaper plus because it actually does hold the shape of your hair without letting it get effected or frizz as it was developed to withstand heavily humid climates and places.  The thing I love most about it is that it also looks and feels just like the other Sebastian lines of sprays where your hair looks natural, it moves, flows, and then falls back into place without getting frizzed and out of shape.  The Sebastian Pro Shaper Plus Hairspray is really the key component to preventing frizzy hair caused by humidity, however you do need to do the proper prep work before hand since one simple spray cannot do everything on it’s own.  It just maintains and holds its place to make sure your hard work prepping and styling your hair does not go wasted.

In short, if you want a potential solution for keeping your style stylish and not getting frizzy or falling from humidity, you need to:

  1. Set your hair with rollers or setters (space permitting if you are traveling)
  2. Use the proper appliances to style your hair like the CHI or Babyliss Hair Irons
  3. Use my secret weapon, the Sebsatian Pro Shaper Plus Hairspray to hold your do in place all day and night long.

We hope you found this helpful in your fight against friz and if you need or would like any of the products mentioned, please feel free to visit our store by click this link to go to Haircare Discounters.
