Girl Crush:
Gisele

In my opinion, Gisele is one of the hottest chicks on the planet, period. I was at a party the other night (actually, it was hair mastermind – Gisele’s mane man, Harry Josh’s Spring Fling) and there stood Gisele and her hubby, the equally hot Tom Brady and, I swear, my eyes never veered from Gisele. She is that radiant and magnetic in person.

I did, however, mention, in passing, to Tom Brady that he could possibly use a hair cut. It’s true! His hair is getting a bit long and unruly and I felt I owed it to him to be honest – …

DRUGSTORE FIND:
TRESemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo

Dry Shampoo is a hair saver – if you haven’t jumped on the bandwaggon yet, now is a good time. I’m quite faithful to my Klorane Oat Milk Dry Shampoo, but the other day, late for a date with a bit of oil in my hair, I found myself in a pinch. As I pressed my beloved Klorane Dry Shampoo to my head, nothing came out – it was ALL GONE! Luckily, I live in an apartment stock-full of beauty products. So, I did some digging, found the TRESemme Fresh Start Dry Shampoo and gave it a go.

Highlights for 2011 With George Papanikolas

My personal colorist of choice, Andy Lecompte Salon celebrity haristylist and Joico Celebrity Stylist, George Papanikolas, dishes on the hair trends for 2011.
