This Stuff Rocks

I blow dry my hair with a round brush every day or every other day, and then I flat iron it. Sometimes I also use velcro rollers before I iron it. Then I use product to defrizz my hair and I spray it. Get the picture.

Well, I picked up a travel size bottle of the new Redken product, Blown Away, and I totally love it! If I could only use one hair styling product, this would be it. It is a gel that protects hair from heat, makes blow drying easier, helps your hair hold shape and controls frizz. I couldn't wait to see if it lived up to everything it promised, and it did. My hair looked *awesome* all day. The best blow dry I have done on my hair. And the next morning, my hair still looked awesome. I'm growing out a modified bob, so my hair has the potential to look pretty tweaked in the morning. Nope ... I woke up, combed it and I'm ready for work. I'm getting the big bottle of it this week.

  1. Thanks for the tip! I have serious thick, curly, frizzy hair. If I know we are NOT having rain or humidity I like to blow it out and iron it. I have a ton of products that are not doing the trick. I will try this!

  2. Oooh, I will have to try that! I love Redken's GUTS mousse (#10) but am always looking for new stuff to try on my thick, wavy (ok, I think the technical term is 'coarse')hair!

  3. Oh my goodness - my hair and hair routine sounds just like yours. I am going to the CVS to get some on my way home. I'll try anything for a good hair day.

  4. My interest is def. peaked by this. I'll have to give this a try. I wonder if this is the same stuff my mom was raving about when we were over there for Easter. Always love a good hair product. I have to wash and blow dry every day and my hair can use any help it can get.

  5. I totally love Redken! I use the Rewind Styling Paste and love it so much! It can make my hair flippy, or smooth, just depends on how I shape it while I blowdry.

  6. I am growing out mine too and you are so right it can do its own thing somedays. I am going to have to give this product a try.
    Blessings,

  7. Mrs. Jones,
    My flat as a pancake, straight as a board hair is on the opposite end of the spectrum. My secret ingredient is using the right glue to make my limp, lifeless DO particularly perky. It has the added benefit of withstanding any hurricane or tsunami!
    I have enjoyed my first visit to your blog. I love your floor lamp make over, it turned out spiffy.

  8. Oh! Thanks for the review! I am glad it works for you. I might have to see if I can find a trial size bottle and give it a shot.
