The runway was alive with new looks this Fashion Week, but we couldn’t keep our eyes off of the hair. We love the exaggerated looks and insane texture, but we also know they may not be right for the everyday gal. Here, we take inspiration from the runway to let you in on how you […]

Red carpet season is in full swing, and our favorite stars are turning heads with textured tresses and soft curls. Your version of a red carpet might be the walkway between your office cubicles, but that doesn’t mean you can’t take some inspiration from award-winning looks and turn heads every day. Here are some of […]

You’re stressed. We certainly want you to unwind from the stressors that plague you day to day, but we’re really hoping that you’ll […]

If you’re already using Moisture Lock, you know it injects curls with naturally hydrating ingredients to create a lightweight, breathable moisture foundation within curls, establishing the proper amount […]

Each year we set resolutions for things we’d like to improve upon or change – eat healthier, read more, have work-life balance. While every day is a new opportunity, a new year is the perfect time to reassess all of your habits and the ways in which you’d like to grow or change. As we […]

You know your curl regimen like the back of your hand, right? We’re positive you know what you’re doing, but you may not be allowing your products to reach their full potential! Often, products you’re convinced can only do one job (albeit, a great job!) can actually work double-duty. Here, we’re letting you in on […]
