‘Big’ Hair From LUSH

Add bounce, body and shine to limp locks with LUSH’s sensational, salty Big Shampoo ($21.35). Sea salt adds fullness and gives hair and scalp a deep clean. Fresh lemon and lime juices give you a glossy shine, while combining with mandarin oil for a delicious, margarita-like scent. Don’t let the chunky, unusual texture discourage you- massage handful into wet hair and watch for BIG results!

Orange You Glad You Wash With Red Flower?

Wake up your hair with the intense and exotic citrus scent of Red Flower Blood Orange Cleansing Hair Wash ($28.00). Italian blood orange, orange blossom, grapefruit, lime and orange rind combine to form a deliciously sunny scent. This shampoo is free of dyes, preservative and parabens, but does have nourishing natural ingredients to deeply cleanse while preserving hair’s moisture. Soy protein and avocado oil repair damage, vinegar gently cleanses while restoring shine, and vitamins E and B moisturize and add fullness. Lather, rinse and repeat each morning!

Put The Lime In The…Styling Gel!

Uplifting, citrus scents always remind us of summer- now they will also remind us of manageable hair and strong, long lasting hold! Korres Lime Styling Gel ($15.00) is great for any style that requires a lot of hold. It also protects your hair from the odors of cigarette smoke and other air pollutants with the natural resin Chitosan, which halts your hair’s absorption of less than attractive smells. No dried up flaky product buildup here- a combo of Macadamia Nut Extract and Glycerine keep the gel deeply absorbed. Wheat protein and B5 make hair silky, detangled and moisturized. Lime oil not only deliciously scents hair, but it keeps your scalp nice and toned, as well!

Shine and Protect!

Split ends happen to the best of us! Live, learn and protect your hair from future damage with Citre Shine Shine Miracle Split End Mender ($4.99). A combo of pure citrus extracts (like lime, grapefruit and mandarin orange) and advanced luminating technologies seals and protects hair, leaving you with glossy shine and, when used daily, a 90% reduced chance of split ends!

If your hair is already damaged, don’t worry! This product replenishes your hair’s store of vitamins and minerals and mends your less-than-perfect ends.

Wanna Play? KMS California Hair Play

I’ve long been a big fan of KMS, and their hair play line of texturizing stylers is too much fun. It immediately makes me think of playing volleyball at the beach, with ingredients like lime and cilantro (doesn’t that just scream summer fun?).

The line includes:

• texture blast — mist on damp hair to ban humidity and give thermal protection
• hyper paste — for medium-hold piecing and shine
• molding paste — gives a textured, matte finish (think: sexy seashore hair!)
• paste up spray – working spray for texture and separation
• soft wax – for flexible hold plus shine
• hard wax — for strong but pliable hold plus shine

I adore the KMS California website. It has tons of styling ideas, and don’t miss the news ticker at the bottom of the home page (one of the few hair manufacturers’ websites that offers real-time KMS news-you-can-use).
