Now that I've chopped off another inch of my hair, hair product has become more important than ever. Meet my +4 that will be tagging along with me to New York this Wednesday. Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ Grip Extreme hold mousse with anti-static effect and natural shine to combat excessively flat post-shower hair. I always tend to apply this mousse after I shower. That way, styling my hair in the morning becomes much more bearable. Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ Session Label Silk Shine Cream My go-to hair moisturizer & protector in one that, well, provides a silky clean shine and smooth finish (duh). Smooth this cream over your hair for a silky finish, or work a small amount through dry hair for texture and separation. And if you're a flattening/curling iron addict like me, this cream is essential. Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ Volume Up! One of the first things I do every morning is give my hair a good dose of the OSiS+ Volume Up! Its a volume booster spray that also adds texture, so when you don't actually want to spend time on your hair, this is the spray to go to. Schwarzkopf Professional OSiS+ Wax Dust Ever since I started cutting my hair shorter and shorter, I've been using hair wax to smooth down stray hairs, fix awkward post-sleep kinks (you know what I'm talking about) and separate my hair ends for texture. This wax dust is perfect for all the above (especially since it doesn't leave any heavy build-up in your hair). And, it fits in your purse. Travel bonus! |
Waking up in the mornings is hard enough, so I never bother spending too much time on my hair (or getting ready in general). And thanks to Schwarzkopf Professional's OSiS+ products, my "hair time" has greatly decreased, leaving me with more time to sleep (as you can tell, efficiency is veeeery important to me). Here's my routine.
1 Spray my go-to OSiS+ Session Label Salt Spray all over hair, and let dry.
2 Straighten any out of place strands.
3 Smooth a small amount of OSiS+ Session Label Silk Shine Cream throughout damp or dry hair. Fun fact, this cream contains bees-wax and glycerin to coat every strand of hair with an ultra-fine film of clean shine. You can also use this cream pre-styling to add some texture to your hair, but for my mornings, I add it last for a ~silky smooth~ finish.
4 You're ready to start your day. Bed head style.
A few days ago, my friends decided to slick back my hair in an attempt to: a) make me look like a boy, and b) use up some unloved pomade. I grew so attached to said androgynous 'do that I decided to replicate it but in a slightly different manner. By replacing pomade with Schwarzkopf Professional's OSiS+ Thrill, this easy hair-do has become my favourite go-to for formal events and other such parties that require me to look a little more presentable. If you: a) are bored, or b) have shoulder length hair and need some (really quick) ideas for NYE shanigans, here's how you can look like a prepubescent boy. Just kidding.
| O N E / Starting off with damp hair, part hair and brush with a comb T W O / Take a moderate amount of OSiS+ Thrill fiber gum in your hands, clap hands together to activate, and apply throughout hair to slick it back. Repeat as necessary.

WEARING LUXE CARTEL NECKLACE & AMOR EARRINGS
Just the other day, I had a little trip to the lovely (and very fancy, if I may say so myself) ROXX Salon + Spa all thanks to ASC PR and Schwarzkopf Professional. I got my head massaged, my hair did before work, and I even got a lesson in hair products (thanks Jessica!) all within an hour. Jessica used a whole lot of Schwarzkopf Professional hair products in my hair, leaving it silky smooth and Disney-Princess-perfect (somehow). Wanna know how? (Maybe?) Then just keep reading!
When I say that I haven't been to a salon in years, I'm lying to you. I do go to a salon occasionally to get my roots bleached, but nothing I've seen can quite compare to the grandeur and finesse of the ROXX Salon. I mean, it has a tree in the middle of the lobby, a spa on the second floor, and a whole wall of hair products. Maybe I should leave my house more often.
Anyway, here's what happened on my hair adventure. First things first, Jessica used this magical shampoo and conditioner called Fibre Force, which employs micro keratin proteins (identical to the ones you have in your hair) to essentially repair your damaged fibres (okay, no more science). After the wonderful head massage that came along with the hair wash (the best part of any salon visit), she sprayed the OSiS+ Blow n Go Smooth into my damp hair, followed by the OSiS+ Glamour Queen. Using the two sprays together, Jessica enlightened me that they make hair-styling much, much, easier and flat-iron-independent. She then proceeded to blow dry my hair in record time (thank to the OSiS+ Blow n Go Smooth's reduced dry time) all while somehow making it look presentable (which my hair rarely ever is). And to finish up the whole look, she used this nifty, non-sticky gel, called Aqua Slide, on the ends of my hair to contain all the fly-aways. The next thing I knew I was already out the door and ready to head home to show off my shiny, golden locks to my father (who was too busy playing his video games to notice, but oh well!).
To sum things up, here's what I learned about the OSiS+ Blow n Go Smooth ($21)
- It's a non-sticky formula that will leave your hair feeling smooth and well, non-sticky
- It controls frizz and helps hold down the fort against fly away hairs (curly-haired friends, we've got you covered)
So, if you: a) have a problem with fly aways and frizz, b) want smooth and silky hair, and c) want to reduce your hair-drying time, then OSiS+'s Blow n Go Smooth is just for you! Okay, I'm going to stop before I start to sound like an infomercial.
