Best Hairstyling Products 2013

best hairstyling products

Best hairstyling products. As promised this is the first review of some of the goodies that I picked up at the Powder Puff event which I attended a couple of weeks ago. I waited a little while before posting this because I wanted to make sure that I actually used the products. It takes me a week or two to really know if I like it. So today I’m presenting my newest hair love which is now on my list of best hairstyling products.

I literally received a tiny sample pot filled with the Shu Uemura Oil-in-Cream. My first thought was that it wouldn’t really last very long but it got me through about 4 washes. Let me take a second to explain my hair. I have a lot of it. Enough that my stylist usually has to thin it out because otherwise I can’t handle it. Until about 2 years ago I had very long hair, it alternated between mid back and down to my waist and for a while I wore bangs that were cut straight across my forehead. This was an easy style. My hair was heavy enough that it was smooth and totally manageable. I barely used any products as I really didn’t need them. Then on a whim I decided to cut it all off. Yup, I do that kind of thing every now and then. Sometimes I just need a change, although usually I play with colour. To date I’ve had: blue hair, black hair, blue-black hair, hot pink tips, light brown hair, red hair, and now it’s a deep chocolate-y brown. I’ve also had a perm and had it straightened. Now I’m having a lot of fun playing with products. The best part is that my hair never seems to get damaged….. I have no explanation for that and frankly I’m not asking any questions.

I knew that it was love at first try with the Oil-in-Cream. Right away my hair just got softer and then as a bonus over the course of a few hours it started to naturally wave…..  I finished the pot and bee-lined it straight to the store for more. Yes it’s a little on the pricey side but because I only use a pea sized amount (my hair reaches my collar bones now) I’m estimating that it will last for about 4-5 months. The only issue with this product is that it made my hair almost too soft. It didn’t get flat, it was still very manageable but I felt like I needed a little bit more texture. Or as the salesgirl put it, “Basically you need it to feel a little more dirty”.

She handed me this gem, Shape Paste sculpting putty, and it gave me the texture I needed. It’s very light and not at all sticky. I take a small amount and warm it up in my hands then run it through my towel dried hair. I use a blow drier and right before my hair is completely dry I add a tiny bit of the Oil-in-Cream to the ends and brush it through. That’s it, simple and easy and now my hair is softer than it has ever been!

What’s on your list of best hairstyling products?

  12. I’ve never been big on hair products but it is something I would like to start looking into because I used a lot of heat on my hair. I would like to see if there are different alternatives that aren’t so damaging!

    1. The Oil/Cream will totally undo the damage along with a great shampoo.

  19. I heard alot of great things about all of Shu Umera’s products!! I love to change styles like clothes too, unfortunately my hair is not as strong and I would probably be totally bald if I experimented like I want to!! LOL

  20. Amanda of Prim and Propah

    Love the hair over the eye, so dramatic haha! I am always afraid to use hair putty because I have use too much Got 2 b glued stuff once and my hair stood out to the side haha, but you did a beautiful job!

    1. This stuff is really light and I use it on damp hair so it waters it down a bit.

  21. OMG I love that wave in your hair. It looks so classic and chic! I need to try that!

  22. These products look great and you’re lucky that your hair responds so well to all kinds of changes! xo

  23. Haven’t tried this specific product but regarding the brand name itself, pretty good reviews are waiving the internet.
