Misikko.com – Ten Ways To Defrizz Your Hair

Got frizz? Don’t fret – just follow these 10 simple tips to ditch the static and turn those frustrating fly-aways into a sleek, silken mane worthy of any shampoo ad.

1. Properly moisturized hair is less likely to be affected by static, so deep condition regularly. I recommend you use a deep conditioner about once a week. You can leave the conditioner on for anywhere from ten minutes to all night long while you sleep!
2. Since moisture is tantamount in keeping hair smooth, avoid products that include drying ingredients like alcohol or sodium lauryl sulfates.
3. If you have problems with frizz, you probably avoid using a blow dryer the way Sarah Palin avoids answering questions. What lots of ladies don’t know is that towel drying your hair can actually create more static than blow-drying if it’s not done properly. Here’s a trick: instead of rubbing or wringing hair out, blot dry with a thin towel made for drying hair. (If you don’t have one, an inexpensive hand towel will do fine.)

What’s Your Hair Cocktail

Every woman has her favorite mixed drink, but noone talks about their favorite hair cocktail. I surveyed my fab friends and asked for their hair regimine.

Hair Type 1: Naturally curly, very thick, permed for several years, decided to go natural!! Wants to flip between straight and curly.

Shampoo – Deva Curl No-Poo: non-drying, no lather, but very moisturizing, a whole new way to no-poo ur hair!

Condition – Deva Curl One-Condition and Mixed Chicks deep conditioner once a week.

Leave-In Conditioner: Mixed Chicks Leave In or Humectress by Nexxus – or sometime a lil of both. Great detanglers

Styling: Curls Soufflee (also tried milkshake): http://www.curls.biz/curly-hair-products/Curl-Souffl-p-16149.html or Miss jessy pudding, its a lil too heavy for me.

Hair Type 2: Straight, extremely thick, permed for several years, decided to go natural, wants to stay straight!Shampoo- Paul Mitchell tea tree shampoo. Or the generic version of it that they sell at sallys. I love it because it smells great and it tinglesConditioner- tea tree conditioner. It tingles too

Styling: carols daughter black vanilla leave in conditioner. My hair has a tendency to look dull so I use a teeny bit of carols daughter hair elixir while it’s still wet. Right now I am using a combo of the Mixed chicks leave in, miss jessies curly buttercreme, and carols daughter hair milk.

Deep condition once a week with miss jessies rapid recovery treatment (thanks to Alicia)

Straight hair- carols daughter black vanilla leave in conditioner and a dime size amount of the healthy hair butter to moisturize. After blow drying and flat ironing I use d’zire hair gloss. A high watt blow dryer. I use bluebird 2100 watts and the infamous chi

Somebody Pull Out The Hot Comb – Pull On My Weave ?!

Who thought THIS was a good idea?! This video is going to single-handily wipe out the entire male race. ATTENTION ALL MEN READERS: Do NOT follow this advice. Women have lots of great things to pull on, but weave is NOT one of them.

And to the particular men in this video. What was going on in your head? What were the casting call details for this gig:
- Must love weave
- Must have the ability to remain extra greasy.

I especially love the moments at 1:30, 1:57, and 2:10, when the men go into a Yaki-induced trance and touch the hair ever so softly.. LMAO

If you take nothing else from this, please know that you should always look for the silver lining. Pulling on my weave might be a bad idea in most cases, but for our friend Tamika, it might help a bit if someone pull on her weave though… from the FRONT! She’s got a little Vivica Fox going on.

Speaking of look a likes – Tamika kinda looks like a cross between Big Mike and Kim.. HEY Professor Ogulvie…..LMAO!

Layoffs Not Affecting Real Chance of Love Stars! c

I use the term “Stars” lightly. I was up watching the tube, when I should have been in bed and noticed our friend Cali making her *cough* movie debut *cough* on Next Day Air. It took me 3 hours to Google and determine if this chick was even in the movie. She’s not even listed in the credits, lmbao.

Anyhoo, it’s my job to give you the news. BUT, less we forget this IS Discoveringhair!

Here are a few pics of Cali from the show:

Chris Brown’s New Lady?!

I said I was over this, but…… I lied. I’m addicted. I don’t know if or why I really care about Chris Brown’s new lady, Natalie Mejia. I won’t bother re-inventing the wheel and going through the details. Here they are courtesy of Bossip.com:”Chris Brown has a new piece! The two were seen exiting a Tattoo Parlor in Hollyweird yesterday. The new victim is Natalie Mejia from the Pussyrat Dolls girl group, Girlicious. Looks like Breezy is going out for some Mexican eating.”I’m not sure who I care about less, Chris Brown or this Pussycat Person. We should change the name of the group to Pointless. I didn’t even know they existed and I’m pretty in the know, ya know. Anyhoo, I found you deserving of me doing some extra digging around for some pics of the Gruelicious Natalie Mejia.She’s aight and for once I have nothing more to say about the hair than “Job Well Done.” You might wanna store these pictures for later, so we can savor this look on her, because who knows what she might look like after she gets Chris Browned.
