ooo yea...now this is the real deal...haha...no model/actress photos here, this is all me!

I used Selsun Blue shampoo (hey now, the cold weather makes my scalp itch) and then Pantene Pro -V Ice Shine Conditioner, which is ok, but not my favourite and then I used John Frieda Frizz-Ease Hair Serum, Thermal Protection Formula which I love, I ♥ John Frieda!

Anyhow....I then just blow dried my hair, with my head upside down, as always, for volume :) and here is how I look;

I dont have the curliest of hair, more of a wavy, frizzy and in desperate need of a trim style.

BUT.....you would never know that after I used the Karmin Salon Pro G3 Hair Straightening Iron!! Ooo yeah.....check me out now....

Happy Hair!!

SO Straight & Shiny!!

No Frizz, No Flyaways!

MORE SHINE!!

And there you have it...real results from using the Karmin Salon Pro G3 Limited Edition Flat Iron. Available in 2009 @ My Hair Styling Tools

I'm so excited! I received the new line of Karmin Salon Pro G3 irons yesterday (not yet available) to take a look at and MAN OH MAN are these SWEET! I thought nothing got better than my Karmin Titanium, but man these new Salon Pro's Kick some serious butt!

Not only do they work amazingly, a high of 420F, heating up in seconds and leaving my hair super smooth and shiny,  but they are avaialble in 3 hot, super sleek GLOSSY shades of Hot Pink, White and Black. If I had to go and buy one I would have a really hard time choosing which color I would want, but I have to say the black Karmin Salon Pro is pretty darn nice lookin!

I am going to post some before and after's pictures later today so be sure to check back to see the amazing results for yourself!

I get a ton of emails from both customers and non-customers of my hair irons asking me "What am I doing wrong, why won't my hair straightener straighten my hair?"

So of course, loving to help I tell them the following;

1. First and most importantly, always use a heat protectant styling aid before any type of heat styling. I would recommend choosing one for your hair type, be it frizzy, dry, damaged or normal.

2. Start by sectioning hair so that you can start with the under layers at the back of your head.

3. Taking sections about 1 inch at a time, place the section of hair in between the plates, close to the root and in the middle of the iron, and SLOWLY glide the iron down the hair.

I find the biggest mistake most people make is that they go too fast and do not clamp the plates tightly enough on the hair. Of course you do not want to clamp them too tightly but you do want a good grip as the pressure and heat combined is what works to flatten the hair.

Also, the slower you go the better as not only will this prevent you from having to go over the section again but this allows the heat to penetrate the hair and smooth it out.

Here's to Happy Hair!
