What I am Buying RIGHT NOW!

I am literally in the middle on an online purchase for THIS product!
John Frieda Full Repair Touch-Up Flyaway Tamer, .5 fl oz

I'm on http://www.drugstore.com/ and I read the reviews on this new John Freida (of drug store fame) repair product.  This is a much needed weapon in my arsenal against flyaways!  I love to wear my hair straight but I always have flyaways!!!

I saw Gweneth Paltrow on the red carpet for the Oscars and when I saw her PERFECT hair I immediately wondered what her stylist used to smooth the hair at her part like that!

I heard rumours that it was a new John Freida product!  I HAD to know what it was!!


So I found out the scoop!  The "Dressing Room CA" interviewed Harry Josh of John Freida

Oscar Red Carpet Hair: Gwyneth Paltrow

Wednesday, March 9th, 2011

THE LOOK: Sleek, straight, and simple.
“Gwyneth was my inspiration. She never tries to impress and her sophistication comes from within–a hairstyle shouldn’t overshadow that. She’s always had impeccably chic personal style and I wanted her hair to reflect that on the Red Carpet.” – Harry Josh, John Frieda International Creative Consultant.
HOW TO GET THE LOOK:
1. Start by applying a straightening treatment.
2. Blow out the hair with a Mason Pearson brush, carefully straightening each section at a time. Next, go over each piece with a comb and a flat iron, ensuring every hair is sleek.
3. Part the hair down the center and comb down all stray hairs and flyaways with a flyaway tamer.


So I read the reviews for John Freida's Full Repair Touch-Up Flyaway Tamer (appx $10) and here is what women are saying:
  1. Best stuff ever

    I love this product. It smoothes my hair and makes it much less frizzy without making it look greasy. Possibly the best thing I've ever used.

  2. Great product!
      By KC in DC - Feb 8, 2011 - drugstore.com
    Pros: Softens Hair; Smooths
    The only thing that ever successfully kept my broken front edges flat. after much processing and heat damage, the front of my hair had major damage. The short pieces stuck up regardless of my use of pomades, gels, sprays, etc. This is the only thing that ever worked. A +++++++++++

I generally don't take beauty advice from anyone named 'Crazy Dog Lady' but how can I resist this item with such positive comments?!

To find the mason pearson brush, I searched Amazon and found it for $70
