Ted Gibson’s Tips for Super-Sleek Hair!

Anne-Hathaway-Hair.gifI’ve long envied girls who have, what my best friend and I called “Pocahontas hair,” after seeing the Disney movie together. It seems to always be shiny and to cascade like a sheet of hair, rather than the stringy frizzy tomboy look she and I sported as kids. Now, I know the super sleek look does not come easily, but with patience and the right tools it can be achieved! So I went to king of the blow out, Ted Gibson (who’s behind Anne Hathaway’s supersleek mane and can now be seen on TLC’s What Not To Wear) for his tips on how to score shiny, flowy, sheet-like locks:  

“Right now in fashion and in hair, it’s all about the experimental aspect of looking really cool without looking like you’re trying too hard. Anne Hathaway is a great example of this because she’s super chic, and effortlessly fashionable. She was a major trendsetter with the bob cut that came back in style in fall ‘08 - spring ‘09! More than that, Anne’s sleek look is really great because it’s easy to wear on the red carpet, and it’s shiny and fun. This style works on anyone who wants simple, beautiful hair. To get the look at home, start with night treatments. Condition while you sleep! Goodnite Overnight Hair Repair Serum helps to condition dry, overworked hair and malnourished scalps. When blowdrying, use something like Build It Blow Drying Agent, which will give volume without being too stiff or sticky. Next, use a Hair Sheet Styling on damp or dry hair to add a UV absorber that helps to protect color treated hair from environmental issues like wind and sun. When you are finished blowdrying, spray Beautiful Hold Hairspray on your favorite brush. Rush your hair from scalp to ends and it will add brilliant shine and control flyaways!”

Lash Out with RapidLash and Beauty Society

By now, I’m sure you’ve seen Brooke Shields’ commercials for a prescription only eyelash growth goo. Sounds cool right? Well! Meanwhile, tons of over the counter products are coming on the market, and surprise, surprise! They totally work! I’ve tried one called RapidLash ($50 at Dermstore.com), I must admit, skeptically, every night for about a month and a half. I was stunned to see my top and bottom lashes growing longer and coming in thicker. When I met the Richards sisters this summer at Sephora, they both complimented me on my lashes, I pretended they were naturally that long (sorry girls!). Even better, all month RapidLash is donating 5 percent of their profits to breast cancer research. THEN I heard about Beauty Society Enormous Lash ($95 at Nordstrom.com), which has a thinner consistency so it can be applied morning and evening. It also gets great results! So great, in fact, that I no longer wear mascara. You can see some pretty amazing before and after shots on the beauty societyA website. Now I wonder how long before they make stuff like this that will make your hair grow faster too….
