Hi, I'm looking for a little advice. I have layered hair, blond (hell yes I get highlights!), thick but fine, naturally wavy, past my shoulders, and I blow dry it every other day or so. I'm thinking of getting a curling iron, and I was wondering if anyone could recommend one that doesn't break or damage their hair. Thanks! IslandScout |

There's a thread around here.....for this very kind of thing. I'll try to find it and bump it so you can see if someone there can help. :) |

Myself and a friend of mine from high school went shopping last week and I bought the first skirt that I have owned in years! Its black and white and fits perfectly ~ I look forward to buying more in the future :D
Just had to share since its pretty exciting! |

I like that straight hair look that I'm seeing a lot now, and that's what I'm looking to get with a curling iron. Since my hair is long now I thought it would be fun to have it be more straight, that it would have more "swing." No, I don't use a product specifically designed to protect against heat when blow drying—that is a very good question and I should see what's out there. I do use an Aveda leave-in conditioner called Damage Remedy, and an Aveda "smoothing fluid" in their Light Elements line. Sometimes for control I use the Light Elements "detailing wax" which is like hair spray without alcohol. But no, none of these products is expressly for protection with blow drying or curling irons. And I never see steam coming off my hair when I blow dry it, so maybe I need to get something to protect it against the hot air. Thanks for writing! IslandScout |

My question would be, if you are trying to straighten your hair, why you want to use a curling iron versus a flat iron? |
Honestly you can use a larger barreled curling iron like a flat iron. Just ask your stylist since you use Aveda they offer many types of product that can be a heat protectant and also a styling aid.

how i wish i dressed and how i actually dress are sometimes two different things, hehe :) i love heels but i can't wear them that much - i usually live in mary janes or sneakers. i've been wanting to order clothes from these two sites for a while...they are definitely what my style would be if money weren't an object:
http://holyclothing.com/ http://www.lotustraders.net/ i also really like http://www.eshakti.com/ and http://www.s2fashions.com/ - i've ordered from both sites before and i still have some cute clothes from them :) i've always tended towards dresses and skirts, but i usually wear pants underneath because i walk a lot and i hate it when my legs rub together. i only started wearing jeans again in the past couple of years - i spent several years without wearing them at all. i got a few cute tops at t.j. maxx yesterday so i'll try to post pictures! :) i love the sites everyone has posted. |

Hair Straightening
I know you mentioned that you're looking for a curling iron, however I've been straightening my hair for years and have tried many products/tools. I've owned a Sedu since 2006 and will never use another. It's over $100, but the investment is definitely worth it. It's a flat iron, not a curling iron, but is one of the best out there. Read the reviews below:
[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Sedu-Revolution-Tourmaline-Ionic-Styling/dp/B003AJLQ4W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1332935170&sr=8-1"]Amazon.com: Sedu Revolution Tourmaline Ionic Styling Iron 1" - Black: Beauty[/ame] I use Redken's Smooth Down Heat Glide, which works like a miracle! (The shampoo and conditioner are great as well) Also, look into Keratin hair treatments (also known as Brazilian straightening). They're a bit pricey, but won't damage your hair and will keep it straight for a few months at a time. Good luck, Christy :blueheels: Quote:

Suave just came out with a DIY at home keratin treatment. I'm going to try it in about a week. |

My hair, by the way, is straight by all standards. I'm blond, and it's kind of wavy if I don't blow dry it. But I like that uber-straight look. I'm going to go to Harmon's tonight and check out the appliances. (That's a personal care discount place in my area.) |
