Whether it’s a rainy fedora-clad commute to work, a windy stroll in the park, or a sweaty subway platform to even sweatier club action downtown… your hair is with you every single step of the way. So why not treat it to something NICE for a change, to combat the heat styling, coloring, free-radicals and life-loving elements that are sucking the life out of your strands?
Enter to win AVEDA’s Smooth Infusion Style Prep Smoother [$24]
If you’re scared to try new hair-ware, take a cue from the pros. Once this seems easy enough to fit in to your lifestyle, you’d be silly not to take a shot. Award Winning AVEDA stylist Antoinette Beenders says:
- Always begin with freshly-washed hair. This is especially important if you want your sleek/smooth blow-out to last for several days.
- Always blot wet hair with a towel to remove excess moisture. Don’t rub—rubbing creates frizz.
- When hair is 100% dry, use cool air to set. This closes the cuticle and ensures your smooth blow-dry will last longer.
- For thick/coarse hair, apply product before bed. This helps maximize smoothness and helps prevent excess volume in the morning.

The best part of my hair is the natural bronze highlights I get in the summer. I love them! 😀
I have extremely particular hair so it’s hard to find a ‘best’ when I’m constantly trying to figure that out myself! I’d have to say that it really can hold a cute bob shape. Actually…that’s about all it can hold, but I’ll go with it.
RT’d it @jules792000 too! 😀
My hair is naturally wavy but will blow dry straight easily, which gives it great versatility.
The best thing about my hair is it fits my chameleon personality!! I can be the librarian on days I’m quiet and tired-my bangs just go perfectly to side and I low bun it OR when I’m cranked or getting tail I can tease the roots a bit and pomade my layers for total sex kitten hair!!
I think the best thing about my hair is the texture. I have thick and wavy hair, and Aveda products help keep it healthy 🙂
I have thick, coarse hair, I would say the best part is its natural volume, and i like the color when its illuminated by the sun. sometimes the volume can be a bit much tho.
The best part of my hair is the texture of it. It’s slightly wavey but without much effort (like literally I brush it) and it becomes stick straight or I can add some mousse, scrunch it up and wear it wavy. Either way take no effort which I feel so blessed for when I hear people doing things like Japanese straightening, etc.
My hair is always shiny! The layers really give it alot of body for my fine hair.
I have baby brown hair with natural blond/redish highlights that seem to sparkle in the summer sunlight, which I love.Plus my natural wavy, but it can hold a cut well.
The best part of my hair is that it’s long and chocolate brown.
I love my bangs. They help add visual interest to my face & hide fine lines on my forehead. Woot.
The best part of my hair is that it can go curly or straight easily.
Being the natural redhead that I am, I think my hair is my best attribute. 🙂 Auburn colored, natural gold highlights and it’s longgg as can be. Proud to be a ginger! Ash knows what I’m talkin’ about! 😉
I have natural curly (frizzy) hair, so I guess maybe when it’s styled good it holds the curl and lasts a while. @tickingsal
I love the fact that I will be 42 next month and not a strand of grey anywhere! I am a natural medium blond that really lights up in the summer months. Tweeting @2boysblue
The best part of my hair right now are the subtle waves that happen when I air-dry. I have to coax them out but they’re there!
Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!! 🙂

I love that my hair is shiny and always straight and I can go curly easily if I feel like it~
I love that my hair is naturally curly and strong!
My hair is naturally thick and wavy. The best part is I can do anything with it—from blowing it out straight to scrunching it up curly!
I love my big beautiful curls! :o)
I finally love my natural color. It looks me almost 10 years of color treating my curls to realize how beautiful natural brown can be!
I love my thick hair!
I love my waves.
